Unless you just found our site yesterday, it will come as no surprise that we here at GFY HQ are huge fans of Gossip Girl, thanks in huge part to the machinations of Blair Waldorf and the hotly smarmy, faintly slimy, yet oddly charming Chuck Bass and his dizzying array of turtlenecks. We're not kidding -- apparently in his personal climate, all heat is directed so firmly down south that he's constantly forced to protect his neck from frostbite.
Well, except for the summer episodes. Behold young Mr. Bass as spied on the Gossip Girl set recently. Hang onto your trousers and lock grandma in the tool shed, because this is going to blow your loins:

Boating shoes that look startlingly like multi-colored Docksiders! Shorts that are practically hot pants! A shirt to wear on his yacht that actually HAS yachts on it! Is it 1981 in The Hamptons? Did Blair steal Chuck's real clothes, dump champagne on them, and light them on fire, thus forcing him to steal something from the cabana of his 80-year old neighbor? Is Chuck starring in a retro porno that takes place at a country club and makes ill-use of pool noodles and grilled-cheese sandwiches?
And most vitally: Could somebody please CGI the cast of 90210 circa the Beverly Hills Beach Club seasons into these episodes, so that we can have a face-off? I need to see these shorts face off against the summer of Brandon Dates A Bigot. Chuck's entry is strong, no doubt, but it may be no match for the cuffed, high-waisted wardrobes sported by Andrea Zuckerman and the aforementioned bigot, who had the double misfortune of being a prejudiced asshat who also dressed badly.
