iTunes gossip girl episode question.?

I also have the season pass and experienced the exact same problem, so I e-mailed the support center for iTunes. They e-mailed me back today saying they would refund me the price of the episode. As far as actually solving the problem, they said they are "investigating" the issue (probably why it's no longer in the iTunes store) and to "try again in a few weeks." Not exactly a great answer, but hopefully the rest of you will be able to get your money back as well.

I had the same problem and emailed itunes complaining. I also bought the season 5 pass and look forward to watching it on Tuesday. How frustrating!!! I have the whole episode sans the dialogue. I have music and even the opening voice of "Gossip Girl". I actually saw the Rhoades to Perdition episode on itunes for downloading on Tuesday. Now it's not there. I don't know what the problem is but I'm not happy.

I had the same exact problem and i thought it was my mac that was messing up so I re downloaded it and only the background sound effects you could here. Then I tried to deleting both and going to buy it on my account and it was no longer on iTunes and it said 8 episodes when the 9th should be out by now, its really weird but now I know I'm not the only one.

So sorry I cant help to fix it but I have been waiting for this episode to appear on itunes and cant see it at all! I thought I was going mad until I saw your post. Perhaps the original had a bug and they have had to take it off to fix it somehow?? At least you kind of downloaded it. I have been checking every 5 minutes....
