Gossip Girl: Pilot

Former Upper East Side It girl, Serena van der Woodsen, abruptly returns to Manhattan after a year's worth of self-imposed exile at a boarding school for reasons unknown.

 

Pilot

Season 1, Episode 1

At a privileged prep school for teens on Manhattan's Upper East Side, the students first learn that Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) is back in town the way they learn all the important news in their lives -- from the Internet blog of the all-knowing, albeit, ultra-secretive 'Gossip Girl'. No one knows Gossip Girl's identity, but everyone in this exclusive and complicated vicious circle relies on her website and text messages for the latest scoop. Even Serena's closest friend, Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), is surprised to find that Serena has suddenly ended her self-imposed exile and returned to Manhattan for school. Once the Upper East Side's most notorious party girl, Serena's reasons for returning are mysterious, although they may have something to do with her younger brother Eric (Connor Paolo). Whatever the reasons, the change in Serena is obvious, especially to Blair, whose friendship with Serena has always been competitive and difficult.
