Order up those diner french fries cuz it's another Upper East Side Thanksgiving, y'all! Dinner will be served at... 4am because we have a LOT of things to cover before we can even start fryin' the bird! If you have notes on Blair's pie recipe, you can keep that to yourself because she is not here for your little games. Speaking of games, will Serena WIN the "prize" that is Aaron Rose, beloved IKEA artist extraordinaire? Somebody get out the van der Woodsen dossiers and tell Bart what the hell is going on here. It's THANKSGIVING! Send us a text Follow us on Instagram (@DorotaDiaries) or shoot us an email at [email protected].

It is the 20th anniversary of Bass Industries. Time sure does fly when you are an evil billionaire and abysmal father! It's Blair's birthday and she's about to meet her mom's new boyfriend. Let's hope he's going to be the present she is hoping for, but we won't hold our breath. Meanwhile, Serena is on the world's worst scavenger hunt, while Dan is suddenly a noted New York journalist.

This is a big one, y'all! Join us as we watch Little J duke it out once more with Eleanor Waldorf herself. We can't say we endorse what Jenny's doing, but dang do we love to see it. We could not get through this episode without the three A's: Agnes, Aaron, and poor, sweet Arthur. Strap into the portal, kids, we're heading to the Ikea Art Installation in Brooklyn.

Gather 'round, Upper East Siders! Be home by curfew for dinner because we need to help make an evil billionaire and his self-absorbed wife's dreams come true. It's the van der Woodsen-Bass family shindig in which they will be debuting as a "close family" to the outside world. However, we know that inside, things are... a little complicated to say the least. Bring your warm, fuzzy family memories and PLEASE don't forget your underwear!  Send us a text Follow us on Instagram (@DorotaDiaries) or shoot us an email at [email protected].

What person, real or imagined, living or dead, would you most like to have dinner with? We'll wait. In the meantime, let's take the Amtrak down to ol' New Haven, Connecticut with our prep school pals. Unfortunately, the S & B beef crosses state lines at a very inconvenient time. Nate predictably scopes out the women of Yale, while Chuck scopes out the weird children of the corn (finance bro sons) of Yale. Dan is as neurotic and unprepared as ever. Will our Constance-St. Jude's kids really WOW the dean during this trip? We don't know. You'll have to ask Shirley, the cat queen.  Send us a text Follow us on Instagram (@DorotaDiaries) or shoot us an email at [email protected].

As the great David Bowie once sang: "Fashion! Turn to the left. Fashion! Turn to the right." It's fashion week in New York City, baby! Blair's got a big job to do backstage at the Eleanor Waldorf show while Serena bucks tradition for her moment on the catwalk of all places. We have a new, hot designer on the prowl and it's our very own Little J. The unlikely pairing of Dan and Chuck are hanging out like multiple times? Also, Lily has a thing for rat paintings. Hurry up and press play on this episode before it's deemed so last season. [Note: Talea was having some technical difficulties with her mic.

We made it, y'all. It's the first day of senior year! Are you a victim or a project? Some people, like Serena and Dan, are both. Join us as we navigate the choppy water that is post-breakup life. We also have Chuck vs. Blair, Vanessa vs. Nate, and Lily vs. Rufus (ugh) in the same boat. Another breakup is on the horizon, but we guarantee you did NOT see this one comin'. Hit play and let's go out to brunch together (instead of, you know, actually going to class). Send us a text Follow us on Instagram (@DorotaDiaries) or shoot us an email at [email protected].

Happy New Year, Upper East Siders! We hope the start of 2025 is treating you well and, if not, at least we have the greatest trust fund babies of all time to keep us company! It's freezing outside right now, but the sidewalks are hot and steamy in this episode. It's summertime and school is almost back in session. A blackout brings sex, lies, and truth to the surface. Fingers crossed that Lord Marcus and his weird ass stepmom are gone when the lights come back on... Send us a text Follow us on Instagram (@DorotaDiaries) or shoot us an email at [email protected].
