Attention, <i>Gossip Girl</i> fans. A new generation of Upper East Siders has arrived in town. The heavily-hyped Gen Z takeover remake debuted fourteen years after the original <i>Gossip Girl</i> aired. If we're fortunate, the reboot will be as scandalous and improper as the original <i>GG</i> was. 

We might even encounter plotlines that make no sense but are entertaining to watch. But before we fall in love with the new cast of <i>GG</i>, let's see what the old cast is up to. Have you watched their recent films and TV series? Take our quiz to find out whether you've completely forgotten the original "annoying" high school kids.
