Answer 3

Gossip Girl is an American television teen drama based on the popular novel series of the same name written by Cecily von Ziegesar. Gossip Girl revolves around the lives of socialite young adults growing up on New York's Upper East Side who attend elite academic institutions while dealing with s*x, drugs, jealousy, and other teenage issues. Featuring an ensemble cast, the series begins by introducing Serena van der Woodsen and best friend Blair Waldorf, as well as Blair's on-off boyfriend Nate Archibald, Nate's best friend Chuck Bass, Dan Humphrey, who dated Serena during most of the first season, Jenny Humphrey, who become involved in the lives of the main characters despite being less inclined to merge with the upper-east-side crowd and Vanessa Abrams who is a best friend of Dan and Serena's little brother Eric. The series is narrated by a seemingly omniscient character, "Gossip Girl", who runs a blog about her fellow Upper East Siders — consequently stirring the pot and creating potential rivalries in this exclusive and vicious circle of friends.

So, that's basically the simple description of the show. It's really good and entertaining to watch.
