Why HBO Max canceled Gossip Girl’s restart

The first thing is the first: the restart of “Gossip Girl” recognizes its predecessor in the sense that, within its universe, the titular blog, once directed by the “Lonely Boy” of Penn Badgley, Dan Humphrey, has been inactive for years, and the fictional figures of the original program as Blair Waldorf and Serena Van der Woodsen, played by Leighon and Blake Lively, are still legendences. However, this story focuses on two girls: Julien Calloway, the de facto “Queen Bee” of the program played by Jordan Alexander, and his half -sister Zoya Lott (Whitney Peak), who specifically moves Manhattan with his father Nick Lott (Johnathan Fernandez) to meet Julien. (The two girls had the same mother, who died long before they came to join when teenagers).

When the Zoya star begins to get up, Julien is jealous of his beautiful and charismatic half a sister, especially when Zoya plays a connection with Julien’s boyfriend, again, Otto “Obie” Bergmann IV (Eli Brown). The Rest of Julien’s Clique, Such As It is, Includes Her Best Friend Audrey Hope, An Obvious Blair Stand-In Played By Emily Alyn Lind, As Well As Pansexual Playboy Max Wolfe (Thomas Doherty), Audrey’s Boyfriend Akeno “Aki” Menzies (Evan Mock) Formidable Duo Luna la (Zion Moreno) and Monet de Haan (Savannah Lee Smith), who are always available to help Julien govern his private school with iron fists.

However, the most strange thing that the restart of “Gossip Girl” is teacher. Yes, Kate Keller of Tavi Gevinson, who teaches English in the fictitious of the New York School, Constance Billard, hides behind the nickname, along with other teachers such as Jordan Glassberg (Adam Chanler-Berat), to intimidate her own students After she gets tired of controlling all the narration, which is, to say it lightly, absurd and terrible. (A teacher in a school should not be publishing creepy photos of adolescent paparazzi style! That is simply … incorrect!)

The restart of “Gossip Girl” tried to cause controversy and drama as well as the original, but ultimately, it failed in its mission, regardless of how much betrayal and incest the showrunners threw themselves into the wall. So why wasn’t it good? It was also, and this word will seem strange here, but they are patient with me, ethical.
