Does anyone like Serena?


I recently finished watching the entire series for the first time, and I liked Serena in Season 1 and partially 2. After that, I didn't like her. I think she was always too selfish and self absorbed and always blamed everyone else except herself.

I ended up liking Blair a lot more.

Just started watching the show, I am currently on season 2 so far I like her. Just out of curiosity who does Nate end up with?

reply

Single actually.

reply

I loved Serena in season 1, and hated Blair. From season 2 onwards I swapped over.

reply

He ends up single, which is sad bc he was the better guy. Not that I do not support focusing on personal goals and leaving relationships aside. But the one who should have ended alone was Dan.

reply

Agreed no way in hell would anyone would realistically marry someone after they exposed you for cash

reply

Nate was indeed the better guy.

reply

She has some likeable moments in the first two seasons, though she's still selfish and always tried to act like nothing was her fault. Seasons after that made the likeable moments fewer and far between.

reply

I never liked Serena. She was unbearably whiny. But I can't decide if that's the character or just Blake Lively. Either way, no, I didn't like Serena and found her the least sympathetic character on the show which is saying something.

reply

Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks Serena is horrible.

reply

Yes. I'd say Blake Lively have a natural skills for a Innocence-whore Role. I can tell she is Pro.
In Gossip girl, like every of you guys
In first season i kinda like her
After that, shes just disgusting me.

Anyway, go get movie called
"The age of Adaline"
"All i See is you"

Tell me your opinion about it

You know im right XoXo

To me she comes off as that girl who tries to redeem herself for past times but clearly doesn't know how to but does everything not to be that person again

reply

I liked her in S1,S2,S3 AND S6.
They ruined her in 4 and 5 totally. But in the last eps I think she was her likable self again. Her relationship with Dan was rushed, but they were cute together, I didn't mind them as endgame.

reply

I like Serena more than Blair. Blair is childish and dresses like a Victorian. Everyone around her is contemporary but her clothes and hair, are last century and horrid!

🙉🙊🙈

reply

Brave opinion here... :)

reply

She was my friend's favourite character. I never liked her. I mean, Blair was a mega-bitch a lot of the time and did some awful things but she owned it. I can respect that. I hated Serena's perpetual "Who, me? I never do anything bad! Bad things just happen around me, like, all the time" schitck. She hardly ever owned up to her mistakes or flaws and acted like any trouble she caused wasn't directly her fault.

This!

Blake Lively's gone on to play in "The Age of Adeline"(2015) and "The Shallows"(2016, sort of a "stranded" "Jaws"(1975) variation with Mandy Moore still to appear this month or so in "47 Feet(?) Down").
