I WIll Go Down With This 'Ship: Couple of the Week

A bit of a throwback here (not really though...this show premiered in 2007 and ended in 2012), but the couple I've chosen for this week is Chuck and Blair from Gossip Girl. 

They were never really a will-they-or-won't-they couple--they hooked up in 1x07- "Victor/Victrola", and it was a hot hookup! From then on, they had a strong following from the Gossip Girl fanbase.

They never really tried to change each other, but love did end up warming the philandering Chuck Bass' heart. They were both manipulative and devious and always at their best working together. Not to mention they had killer chemistry.

Their biggest problem (which seemed silly to me) was that they couldn't achieve their goals together--so they got unofficially engaged (Blair wore the engagement ring around her neck) and waited until Chuck took down his father (or the series finale) to get married.

Best Chair-centric episodes:
1x07 "Victor/Victrola"
1x08 "Seventeen Candles"
1x18 "Much 'I do' About Nothing
2x13 "O Brother, Where Bart Thou"
2x25 "The Goodbye Gossip Girl"
3x12 "The Debarted"
3x22 "Last Tango, Then Paris"
4x07 "War at the Roses"
4x22 "The Wrong Goodbye"
5x11 "The End of the Affair?"
5x13 "G.G."
5x24 "Return of the Ring"
6x01 "Gone Maybe Gone"
6x09 "The Revengers"
6x10 "New York, I Love You, XOXO"
*There are so many more great Chair episodes, I just don't feel like listing aaallll of them.

If you haven't seen this show, you should give it a shot. I mean, they are all spoiled and it's pretty outlandish, especially for us mere mortals in the middle class, but it's fun to watch (mostly because of Chuck and Blair).
