(Kristen Bell) Gossip Girl’s voice over:   …

 Our opinion:

 This series is really interesting because of the fact that the viewers can see a world that the other series don’t look at. In spite of the fact that the characters are rich, people can identify themselves to the characters. For the readers of the book series,  we think the TV adaptation is a new way to see the young New-Yorkers. Gossip Girl initially received mixed reviews, but for the New York Magazine, Gossip Girl is the  »Best. Show. Ever. ».
