Gossip Girl timeline, part 1

I don't know about you, but haven't you noticed that most TV shows have screwed-up timelines, like they don't always go along together. Well at least Gossip Girl is largely restricted to a group of people so I suppose it'll be easier to construct a timeline? Not really.

  • Aug/Sept 2005-June 2006: S dated the swimming team captain.
  • Tue 10/8/2005: D first met S at a birthday party. This is the setting for his short story "10-08-05" that was published at The New Yorker.
  • Aug-Sept 2006: Start of sophomore school year.
  • Aug/Sept 2006-June 2006: B develops her eating disorder.
  • Between Aug-Dec 2006: The Shepherd's Wedding.
  • Thu 11/23/2006: Thanksgiving Day (Flashed back).
  • Nov/Dec 2007-Feb 2008: Harold leaves Eleanor for Roman.
  • Dec 2007-Jan 2008: S leaves for Connecticut.
  • Aug-Sept 2007: Start of school year.

  • Pilot:
  • Thu 10/11/2007: S arrives back from Connecticut, D+J arrive back from Hudson.
  • Fri 10/12/2007: S's first day at school, B learns about N+S.
  • Sat 10/13/2007: B's Kiss on the Lips party, Lincoln Hawk concert.

  • The Wild Brunch:
  • Sun 10/14/2007: Bart Bass' annual brunch.
  • Thu 10/18/2007: C catches S going to the center.
  • Fri 10/19/2007: Ivy Week-end.
  • Sat 10/20/2007: S+B reconcile.

  • Poison Ivy:
  • Sat 10/27/2007: C's "Lost Weekend", B+S's first day together.
  • Sun 10/28/2007: B+S's fashion "shoot", C bails out N from Carter Baizen.

  • Dare Devil:
  • Fri 11/02/2007: B's sleepover, S's first date with D.

  • The Handmaiden's Tale:
  • Sat 11/10/2007: Masquerade ball, Eleanor's party for her fashion line.

  • Victor, Victrola:
  • Thu 11/15/2007: C informs B on his plans on Victrola.
  • Fri 11/16/2007: D+S making out when V arrives via the fire exit.
  • Sat 11/17/2007: B does burlesque routine at Victrola, lil J goes to Hudson.

  • Seventeen Candles:
  • Sun 11/18/2007: B confesses her sins, J brings Alison home, B's birthday party.
  • Mon 11/19/2007: B's birthday.

  • Blair Waldorf Must Pie!:
  • Thu 11/22/2007: Thanksgiving Day, the Captain rushed to the Hospital, S, E, D, J learn Lily's past.

Post-Thanksgiving: I haven't paid attention to these episodes (except the last two, although I've seen them all), so I'd have to watch these episodes again to have a good construction of a timeline.

Key: S = Serena, B = Blair, D = Dan, N = Nate, J = Jenny, C = Chuck, V = Vanessa, E = Eric

  2. There no episodes yet on the time before Serena leaves. The story begins after she arrives. Unless the producers will create an an entire flashback episode.
