Gilmore Girls Love Thread — Page 3

I loved this episode!! I was really anticipating it, but I just wish there was more with Luke and Lorelai. I LOVE them together. Where was Sooki? She's one of my favorite characters on the show and she wasn't even in the season premiere. Oh well... LUKE AND LORELAI FOREVER!!

*sigh* This premiere was the big test, and I guess I'm not dropping the show after all. It had a) the right reply to Lorelai's question b) Rory getting punished for her actions, and c) not too much Rory.

Can you tell I don't like Rory? My only objections to this ep are that there wasn't enough of the senior Gilmores, and that Richard acted ludicrously in court. But it's understandable.

Anyway, that's the all I'll get to see until December (when I'll inevitably be disappointed by the rest of the season). So my main goal will be the avoiding of spoilers. :)

Rory has been drinking for awhile now...


And I'm a fan of Lorelai and Rory together...

That's why we have Paris.

No, but Sookie was in a commercial for a bank recently. Washington Mutual, maybe. She was the person scanning the heads (if you've seen it you know what I mean).

---

Seriously, where was Sookie? You would have thought Lorelai would have gone almost straight to her. Especially before Taylor... I miss Sookie.

---

That's right! Lane! Aw, I love her. Though I liked her with Dave best. Now she's with Zach. She deserves better. Yeah, hasn't Rory talked to her about everything? I bet she would put her in her place.

Not having Sookie or Lane in the first episode is NOT a money thing. If your name is in the opening credits, then you are a series "regular", and you get paid weekly whether you're in the episode or not. People like Saly Struthers and Liz Torres only get paid for the episodes they're in.

The great thing about Gilmore Girls is that the characters are real. Rory makes bad and disapointing decisions, Loreleli doesn't always do the right "parent" thing and the Grandparents have conflicting agendas.

Rory is acting like a college student, especially in the atmosphere she has entered with the pressures of that particular group of people at Yale. I hate that she lost confidence in herself so easly, but I love the show for moments exactly like that. She will eventually work through it, but the process is what is interesting and the process many of us have gone through.

I think the old Rory was right for that time in her life, but the new Rory is right for now, they both have faults and work on them.

Hmmmm.... premier was... odd. It was like yay... let's get married. No kissing, no hugging, the way the stayed on opposite ends of the diner for forever was SO akward?!?!

I completely agree! I can't express how frustrated that made me! I was like... do SOMETHING.

They had a rift before, right after Rory slept with Dean, and that went on for a little while. It's a variation from the normal, great relationship. They have to make it a little more realistic. Every relationship has fights.

I like the Rory in the old episodes much better though. Although it's different, and it gives her something to work with, it's just not... her.

---

I honestly hope tonight's is better than the premiere was last week.

---

Anyone watch last night's episode? I thought the last part between Lorelai and Rory was great. And can I just say how much I hope Rory does not join the DAR? It would be going against everything her mother ever stood for. If she joined that world... I hope she comes to her senses soon.
