The funny thing is that the show did not need to answer the question that hovered over the whole series, because who Gossip Girl really was doesn’t really matter to the plot. Her purpose, to strip a little bit of power from these insanely rich and powerful teens, is fulfilled regardless of who posts the blogs of their bad behaviors. And by revealing anyone as Gossip Girl, the show lost the premise that made it glimmer: that we would never know who Gossip Girl was because it didn’t matter. The point all along was her anonymity, and we loved it.
