“Unlike Chuck Bass, the “Gossip Girl” crew of 2021 is aware of income inequality. They take Ubers, not limos. They’re (mostly) not rude to service workers. And Zoya Lott, played by Whitney Peak — the new iteration of the grounded, middle class, fish-out-of-water Dan Humphrey — is a scholarship student at the upscale Constance Billard school, the implications of which will be explored in nearly every episode.“

i dont see the link between BLM and people who were born wealthy in a tv show. I don't see the link between glorification of wealth, and showing characters born wealthy in a tv show. Sensitivity will kill art

This show is a flop already.

If anything, it’s a smart opportunity to give a fresh spin to the series. We don’t need a GG 2.0 with the same 2000s vibe so why are you being so negative when the show is actually incorporating topics that are current and relevant to the time we are living in right now?

100% agree. It's showing the other side of the life spectrum in NY. I am totally here for this.

Lmao they are going to a private school. How are they not privileged???

They’re born in wealthy families but unlike the original characters which lived their high society lifestyle, the new characters won’t be glorifying their wealth and the show is most likely targeting other topics than excessive parties and buying haute couture every other scene

Hmmm okay, then what will the show be? Another super serious, depressing piece of media that makes people feel bad about themselves for enjoying escapism. Groundbreaking. We haven’t gotten any of that the last couple of years. :flop:

They're just not going to "glofify" it.  In other words, they're going try to not rub it into impoverished faces because they know we have time to destroy them on twitter. :haroon:

Well, in reality they're making it worse, because at least we could hate rich people for being out of touch.  But now, they're woke too?  Rich, gorgeous and woke?  

Uhhhhmmmmmmmm

 

NO THANKS!! :lana:

Well, just like I don't think all "poor" people are ignorant, I don't think all rich people are ignorant. Many, sure, but not all.
