I honestly wasn't that big of a Dan/Serena fan in the books nor in the beginning of the show. They were too much of a happy couple for my taste. But by the season finale, I fell in love with them! I loved their angst and realistic portrayal of a relationship. I'm definitely rooting for these two! <3

Totally agree with you although I feel in love with them from day one... I think I just like the underdog aspect of Dan going for Miss Popularity! I looooove them... But I am torn because i like lily/rufus too!! and the finale made me sad cuz they didnt end up together but I think they will next season! i hope anyways!

Aww hun! I'm rooting for those two as well! I was upset that they didn't get to mend things in the season finale, but.. I'm pretty sure those two will find their way back to each other

Serena/Dan were cute, but incredibly boring to watch, for more. I liked that we're getting a bit of drama for them, but the finale made me sad in a way. I was like..What the f*ck, Dan Admin's Note:[/hr]! YOU broke up with her Admin's Note:[/hr] And I really am confused on what happened with him and Georgie. But, I think Dan is too judgmental for Serena.
I don't have a set person I want Serena with, but I'm glad they seem to explore SN. Maybe it's what S/D needs.
Plus, I want PreBoardingSchool!Serena back. She needs to be herself, and Dan needs to accept that from Serena.

I think Dan puts Serena on a pedestal. For me, one line she said just told me everything about their relationship. "I'm sorry for not being the person you thought I was." However, I did think they had their sweet moments. And when he told her she was scared was so sweet.
And I also want the old Serena back.

I never read the books with Dan/Serena, but from what I’ve heard I wouldn’t have liked them much.
On the subject of TV Darena, I’ve gone back and forth like most of you. During the first few episodes, I didn’t really like Serena, so I was fairly indifferent towards DS in general. They were just so... generic. Dashing underdog meets perfect rich girl, awkward silence, dashing underdog does something... well, dashing, girl falls for underdog, wicked witch dies (or gets embarrassed at her own party – same thing), they all live happily ever after. Not to say there’s anything wrong with that – it’s a storyline that’s been used countless times, so clearly it’s got something right.
However, when that all happens in the first episode, it gets a little boring. DS really is quite charming, and I might watch them sometime when I’m in a bad mood, but after a while I don’t want to spend my Tuesday nights watching them make eyes at each other for an hour. Be miserable for a while, or I may vomit. I think another reason they bothered me so much was that I could see they had so much potential to portray a complex and realistic relationship. The only time we really got a taste of that early on was in “Wild Brunch”. Dan finally saw that Serena is human, just like everyone, and while she may have the desire to change, she’s not supergirl. He had built her up in his head so much that she couldn’t possibly meet the standard.

if not i have no idea what they are going to do with dan. i know serena has other options lol Vanessa/Dan, baby! That's what they'll explore. Whether in friendship or more. Oh, the NSDV square. Not as fun as CBNS, but that's what we'll eventually get.

DS is my favorite couple on GG. They own every other couple because they're so real & they aren't the picture perfect couple. I loved them in S1 & fell back in love with them in S2.

I do love my Darena and everyone here knows how much I love Dan.. but after tonight's episode.... If Serena stays this way as the now ruling "Queen S" ... then I don't really think I'd like her very much.

LMAO. I freakin' died at the fiercness that is S owning B. Blairs face, PRICELESS. But knowing GG the tables wll turn again 2x05.
All I pray for is that Serena make a solid effort to stay with Dan and then Dan won't be all confused. I'm team Chrisma cause she's the only one who understands me.
Nobody loves Dan anymore cause apparently he's being an ass, when actually it's Serena that's now doing the damage. If she didn't agree to her random date with some football stud at Dan/Amanda's date & then it wouldn't of pissed Dan off which then blew up at Serena when she's being her typical egotistical self then DS wouldn't be dead now.
Think about it, she gets with some random guy out of spite & then pulls the "omg Dan is she ok! Admin's Note:[/hr]" after her minions own Amanda; like seriously S grow up. She knows her minions will do it anyway because they've been under B's reign for all this time. Duh. LMAO.
