“Fans of Chuck and Blair are a bit frustrated (to put it mildly) that yet another obstacle has been put in the duo’s road to happiness. “Of course we have to draw it out a little bit,” Safran explains, “but like when they say, ‘Why can’t Chuck and Blair just be together already?!’ and it’s like well if they were together then we’d have to break them up in five minutes.”

~E!Online Gossip Girl Redux: Is There Hope for Chuck and Blair? Get the Scoop!

To which the following needs repeating…

imgossipgirl:

epic-chair:

“I’m hoping fans agree that the struggles Chuck and Blair keep coming up against are good struggles. It’s like just when they think they’ve conquered one aspect that was keeping them apart, another one pops up. I believe that is always going to be Chuck and Blair’s issue with each other.”
“They just can’t seem to get it right. The thing is can Chuck and Blair ever be in a place where they can meet each other eye to eye or will one always a few steps ahead of the other? That’s never boring to me.”

~Josh Safran

OMG, this guy is ridiculous. “Good struggles”. I can’t. The only good thing about this: Chair is not over.

Correction: never over.

…………………. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think I gave this guy too much credit. And that’s fucking saying something because I barely gave him any fucking credit at all. What a moron. The struggles are not good. They’re fucking ridiculous and repetitive and contrived. “It’s like just when they think they’ve conquered one aspect that was keeping them apart, another one pops up.” Exactly. Another one pops up. Every time. Without fail. Literally right after they’ve just overcome the last one, in the same fucking episode. It’s happened six times now. In about a season and a half they’ve pulled this same shit with Chuck and Blair SIX FUCKING TIMES.

3x22:

Chuck and Blair get back together after the whole Jack/hotel ordeal…

Blair finds out Chuck slept with Jenny and, needless to say, leaves him again.

4x09:

Chuck and Blair get back together at the Saints and Sinners party…

Blair randomly realizes she needs to make a name for herself and she can’t do that while being Chuck’s girlfriend apparently so they let each other go.

4x10:

Blair is reconsidering what she said in the last episode and clearly wants them to be together…

But now it’s Chuck, all of a sudden, who thinks they shouldn’t be together right now.

4x18:

Blair says her and Chuck are meant to be and there’s no point wasting time blah blah blah and she’s going to take him back…

Chuck apparently does something horribly immature (not really) and Blair decides she can’t be with him after all cause he’ll never change yada yada yada

4x22:

Chuck saves Blair, they sleep together, Blair’s prepared to go dump Louis because she wants to be with Chuck (brand new information, I know)…

Chuck somehow convinces her to stay with Louis so she can have her happy fairy tale even though she was just about to end things with him a second ago… Okay then.

5x10:

Chuck and Blair reunite once again and are going to be together forever and raise Blair’s baby and…

Oh look at that! What are the odds!? They get in a car crash! Would you believe that? Chuck’s badly injured. Blair begs God to let him live and in return she’ll never be with him again.

……

And Josh thinks this is good? That this is good writing? That these are good struggles? That everyone’s enjoying this? That anything about all that CRAP up there is good? Really? Wow. Just wow.
