Romance On TV: Chuck Can’t Handle Love

Last night’s season finale of Gossip Girl was a spectacle, and one of the more interesting plot lines was the Blair/Chuck romance. Basically, Chuck admits (to Nate) that he’s in love with Blair. He makes this sappy toast at his father and Lily’s wedding, and then he invites Blair to go to Tuscany with him on his family’s private jet. Has Chuck reformed and gone from date rapist to romantic? Well, I got really excited because I think he and Blair are really cute together, mostly because they’re both so evil, but then things went awry! Chuck’s dad tells him that taking Blair to Tuscany will change everything, and Chuck decides he’s not really ready to commit and leaves Blair to fly alone (well, with some random hot guy), and instead hits on blonde hottie Amelia. I guess some guys never change.
