Dan Humphrey is Gossip Girl! Nice! I love that the explanation is that all those years ago he decided to write himself into the Upper East Side world. Brilliant.
-Blair and Chuck get married and in a flash forward five years in the future they are happy and even have a son named Henry.
-Also in the flash forward, Dan and Serena get married and Nate is running for Mayor or New York and is apparently so successful with The Spectator that the newspaper has its own private jet. (I wish!)
-Rufus ends up with Lisa Loeb which is a nice way to wrap up the 90s music theme that has been a common thread throughout the series and Lily ends up with original baby daddy William (much better than adding another husband to the list).
-I loved the quick cameos from former pivotal characters like Vanessa and Juliet. The Mayor Bloomberg cameo was fun too. But my favorite of course was the voice of Gossip Girl, Kristen Bell, making an appearance alongside Rachel Bilson (formerly of The O.C.) in a scene that showed the two rehearsing for the movie version of Dan’s book. Fantastic.
-Ivy finally gets what she deserves along with the best line of the episode delivered epically by William: “You’re a Lifetime movie called “Nobody Gives a Damn: The Ivy Dickens Story.”
