manhattan's elite

this TV series 'gossip girl' and THE ONLY series that i ever watch. tv series usually bores me. but this is different i could say. I am very hooked up in this show that’s why I downloaded all the episodes in season2. I started watching this when I borrowed a dvd from my friend which is a compilation of season 1. if you’re in to fashion. No reason for you not to like this show. All the characters are so well dressed. And I love to put myself into the shoes of the characters and set it into real life. Maybe one of my dreams is to be one of the elites. Yes it’s crazy, but hey! Everyone is free to have big dream right? I love wearing suites, dress, high heels, etc. also, I love to be do all I want to do. Like in the show, they are free to do whatever they want to do. Although they have their parents with them, freedom is much expressed by these people. Knowing that america’s culture is different from ours, it is kinda sad that we are different from them.

Frankly, this show really has bad values that are really dangerous to the viewers who are so hooked up to what they are watching. Since this series shows a lot of liberation, as teenage viewers, their belief on what is right might be destroyed. For example, having sex during high school is an amplification of how free they are. This might be taken as an ‘okay’ scenario by the young ones and sadly, they might apply this in their lives. Also, there are lots of scandalous things that is happening in this tv show. Teenagers post gossip on a website and this gossip spreads to everyone. This is hazardous to the people because this shows that it is a norm to post gossip and tell everyone what is happening to someone’s life. Even if it’s not true. I know that all shows that we see on tv present values like in ‘gossip girl”. This show would like to illustrate, love, friendship, relationship, priorities, loyalty. But all show has its down side. We just have to be cautious to what we see and hear. Beware while watching.
