Season five opens in the City of Angels -- Los Angeles! A suntanned Serena has found the perfect summer job when Chuck and Nate, who are still on their posh trip around the globe, decide to pay her a visit on their mega-yacht. Meanwhile, back on the Upper East Side, Blair is still dealing with the fallout from her impossible choice between Prince Louis and Chuck, and Dan's world is suddenly shattered when he discovers that someone has gone behind his back and found an editor to anonymously publish one of his stories. Dan is terrified of all his friends and family reading his brilliant-but-honest critique of New York high society -- but will he say no to the fame and fortune that comes with being a published author? Finally, the surprise return of Serena's cousin Charlie (new series regular Kaylee DeFer) will threaten to destroy the van der Woodsen family from within. Watch out Upper East Siders, this season, nobody's safe and everybody's going to be sorry.... XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Audience Reviews for Gossip Girl: Season 5

  • Nov 14, 2020
    With the absence of Jenny, Vanessa and Eric, the producers brought Blair and Dan together as a couple of the moment, which was not widely accepted by their regular fans.
