Convicted kidnapper and attacker Peter Braunstein is still in love with Gossip Girl, especially the Blair Waldorf character. In an interview tonight, the former journalist tells Inside Edition, "Monday nights, it’s like sacred, man. Everybody in the cell block knows that. Nobody talks to me when Gossip Girl is on," and says of Blair, "Even though she’s scheming and has a thing about power, she’s loyal. She’s everything that I wanted in a girl." He also brings up Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker, "Everyone sees a lot of me in the ‘Joker’ character here. It’s kind of a running joke, like, ‘that guy’s a lot like you.’"
