Surprise! It’s an all-”Gossip Girl” edition of “Teen Drama Links” in honor of today’s season 2 premiere of the spinoff.
Just as I did to celebrate the start of season 1 last year, I’ve compiled all of this week’s must-read articles about “Gossip Girl” returning to our lives. Below you’ll find the newest stories about the HBO Max show, reviews of the new season, articles about the cast, and relevant past TDW posts (including all of my reactions to season 1’s episodes).
Refresh this post over the next 24 hours for updates as new articles come out, and check back later tonight for my reaction to episodes 2.01 and 2.02. Then be sure to subscribe to receive Tuesday’s “Teen Drama Links” for what will no doubt include even more “Gossip Girl” content.
