Anyone who watches Gossip Girl knows that, among Chuck's more negative attributes he like the liquor. He is often see throughout the show sporting some kind of alcoholic beverage, whether it be vodka, brandy, or his drink of choice scotch. Although his drinking isn't a focus of the show, the only problem being the fact that he can order drinks at a bar a not be carded (even though when the show starts he is a junior), it is still mentioned and showed enough to be a part of his character.
Scott Disick also has an apparent drinking problem, although his problem affects his life more than his TV counterparts problem does. You could call this up to me being nit picky or whatever, but Scott didn't have this "problem" (which I personally believe is exaggerated by the producers) until he started to become a more central player in the show. OR until CHUCK became a central player in Gossip Girl. Both men are constantly imbibing the dutch courage and parading around like it isn't 2 in the afternoon. The only difference is reality vs. fantasy in this situation. Whereas Chuck is an actor portraying someone who may be a wee bit tipsy but is otherwise completely in control of his actions. Scott is an actual drunkard sloshing around and being sloppy.
Still, ya gotta love em both.
