Seriously, was that whole coming out a surprise to anyone?

From the pilot episode I (and probably a lot of other people) thought that Eric was gay. Definitely not an OMG moment.

Serena's bombshell, however, did surprise me. She actually killed someone? With Georgina there to video tape it?

So if Eric tried to kill himself because he was gay and Serena ran away because she killed someone, me thinks here are some family issues that need to be dealt with in the van der Woodsen home. And adding the Bass' to the mix probably wont help.

(And, yes, GG is one of my Guilty Pleasures, but I haven't seen every episode.)
