Man vs. Woman

Over the years, there have been many great feuds between a strong male and an equally strong female. Think Obama vs. Hillary, Merlin vs. Madame Mim,... and Chuck vs. Blair. Yes, the two Gossip Girl characters are at it again. As of Monday night's episode, "A touch of Eva", the former lovers are at war. Not that this is something unheard of. Some of the best episodes of Gossip Girl have revolved around Chuck and Blair fighting, and Monday seemed just like a continuation of their petty feuds. Their relationship is at a pretty... complicated point: Chuck had sold Blair out to his uncle for a business deal, and just when she was about to forgive him, he slept with her arch-enemy. Over the summer, Chuck fell in love with Eva and brought her back to New York from Paris. Blair couldn't take seeing him with another woman and set Eva up, so that Chuck basically kicked her out. As bad as that seems, it's clear for viewers that Blair acted out of love, so Chuck's hateful confrontation at the very end is just plain scary: "This means war, Blair. Me versus you. No limits." In other words: it is ON. Check out next week's episode "Goodbye Columbia" Monday, Oct.11, at 9 pm on The CW.
