9 Things From Gossip Girl That Were Too Wild - How Have We Not Seen This Before?

Already a classic akin to "Sex and the City", the series "Gossip Girl" appeared on screens in 2006 and at one point became a favorite drama of young people. It would seem That not so long ago the creators of the show launched the first season about the life of America's elite teenagers. But more than 10 years Have passed, and the truths That Were close to the young minds of those years are beginning to lose their relevance. The decisions That schoolchildren or their parents made Were justified then, but now for some reason they seem absurd or even completely unacceptable. Why is that?
The eternal questions of justice, love, duty and honor, which Were repeatedly raised in the series, Were distorted. Yes, time does not stand still, and therefore it is time to look at the heroes of "Gossip Girl" From a new angle.
1. Feelings between members of the same family

Serena and Dan are cousins. Yes, not blood, but Serena's mother and Dan's father met and even had a common child. This at first affected the relationship of a couple of main characters, but it couldn’t really interfere: in the end, in a sense, half-brother and sister decided to tie the knot. Now complicated family relationships are going out of fashion, and such a “Santa Barbara” can scare away many especially impressionable viewers.
2. Love affair of students and teachers

Both Serena and Dan slept with their teachers. Yes, in the reality of the series, such situations look commonplace, but in fact in America it is completely unrealistic: such a resonant case would certainly become public and, according to the law, the teacher would face 10 or even 20 years in prison. Serena's teacher ended up in jail for malpractice, but Dan's teacher just...disappeared. Now such a story would be considered corruption propaganda in the spirit of Nabokov's Lolita.
3. Relationships with an age difference

Yes, the storyline with teachers is not the only topic That would be taboo in 2020. Another character, Rufus, is dating Ivy, a Girl with low social responsibility who has caused problems for his family on more than one occasion. Ivy herself clearly chose a man not for her age.
4. Promotion of alcohol or drug addiction among adolescents

In one of the episodes, Blair wants to fake buying a bar Chuck, but he decides to go ahead and actually buy an entertainment establishment, although he himself was barely 18 years old. According to US law, young people can only consume and buy alcohol From the age of 21, which is already talking about the conclusion of such a large deal. In principle, Chuck suffered not only From alcohol, but also From drug addiction.
Children and illegal substances often appeared on the screen (take, for example, the sensational "Euphoria"). But if Netflix is ​​trying to show the younger generation the real negative consequences of drinking, then in Gossip Girl there is no question of any educational moment: the hero is consistently “high”, but looks, to put it mildly, too good, which is absolutely implausible.
5. Violence by the main character

In one of the episodes, Chuck Bass almost raped the Girl Jenny, who was only 14 years old. Such a trick remains unpunished, although the elder brother of the victim became a witness to such a strange scene. In reality, Chuck would not only face a trial, but also condemnation From relatives and friends. In addition, the modern world condemns the impunity of the rapist even on the screen, so some activists and fans who are simply not indifferent to details would express a complete boycott of the show.
6. Romanticizing a toxic relationship

Chuck and Blair, members of the main romantic line, riveted attention to themselves even in the moments of their breakup, which is really not cool. Their relationship is an example of That very abusive connection between partners that, along with the modern attitude towards self-love and the fight against addictions, simply could not coexist. Today, instead of admiration, Chuck and Blair would Have caught only a wave of indignation.
7. Bullying at the center of the plot

All the stories of the series in one way or another touch on the topics of harassment and bullying. Moreover, rarely any manifestations of psychological violence are condemned, on the contrary, they are the engine of the plot, the red thread That runs through all 6 seasons of the show. Now This is clearly not in vogue.
8. Signs of racism

The Polish governess Dorota in 2006 seemed to be an exceptionally comical character, but now the viewer is unlikely to experience anything other than sympathy towards her. The antics of her superiors, the dismissive attitude towards women and opposition to the secular world are contrary to modern concepts of humanity and equality. The image of an immigrant servant would be considered offensive, but by no means ironic.
9. Positions unusual for age

Chuck owns a bar at 18, 16-year-old Jenny runs a huge fashion holding, and Nate becomes the editor-in-chief of a newspaper. Too “adult” success of teenagers is confusing, creates unrealistic expectations and may at least seem strange to the modern viewer. In addition, it is difficult to show proper respect for the heroes who, in fact, did not come to such results with their own work or mind. The bet solely on the money of parents is not relevant, in 2020 people are used to and want to see those who achieve everything on their own.
