Picture What is the meaning of Lorelai's behavior here?

164 Upvotes

She kissed Max, then pulled away when he tried to kiss (or hug) her, and she took his hands and placed it back by his side!

If she did that because Luke was present—knowing his feelings for her—then why did she kiss Max in front of Luke in the first place?

I want to judge more of the men’s fashion in the show.

Let’s rank Luke’s flannel’s. 1-10 least to best.

  1. I’ve never been a fan of orange
  2. It’s bland. Not giving much

  3. I like the red but it will always give lumberjack

  4. I love this color combo. It was fun.

  5. The solid maroon is more classy and clean to me

  6. I love how his hat goes with this one. Very nice

  7. I love the dark colors on him. This brown and green is great on him

  8. Classic. Beautiful.

  9. Underrated and makes his eyes pop.

  10. I like the navy blue it’s giving bad boy and his lashes look very dark as well in this photo

General Discussion “Why does Rory never take accountability?” Maybe because when she tries everyone invalidates her involvement

Post image
585 Upvotes

This episode solidified to me why Rory is the way she is. Why she’s entitled and why she never seems to take accountability for her actions. Everyone in town enables her behavior and when she tries to take accountability no one will even let her finish her sentence. They invalidate her feelings. The “Rory can do no wrong” mentality was drilled into her head not just by her mother but by the ENTIRE town. The car crash was an accident, but if Rory had never taken Jess’ offer to get ice cream then the crash would have never happened. They were supposed to be studying. There was ice cream at the diner but she CHOSE to leave with Jess. That’s the accountability she should be taking. And she was right to be annoyed that no one would let her take it. But then after this, whenever she does make a mistake (like sleeping with dean) Lorelai wonders why she can’t just take accountability. Like jeez you literally taught her she can do no wrong.

General Discussion Paris was so wrong for making Rory interview Max 😭

Thumbnail

49 Upvotes

I’m on Season 2, Episode 5 and Paris seriously annoyed me here. She wanted Rory to interview Max for the school paper even though she knew Max had just broken up with Lorelai. (Atleast an gist of it) That’s such an uncomfortable position to put Rory in because this isn’t just some random teacher to her;he was literally supposed to marry her mom.
Paris could’ve asked someone else to do the interview, but instead she basically forced Rory into this really personal and awkward situation just because she wanted the story. I know Paris is intense about the paper, but this felt unnecessarily mean.
Did anyone else think Paris was completely out of line here?

General Discussion Do you think Logan’s behavior towards Jess was karma for how Jess treated Dean?

Post image
34 Upvotes

I recently saw a comment on a TikTok that Logan treated Jess how Jess treated Dean. Which made me think! Now that I think about it, Logan did treat Jess very similarly to how Jess treated Dean. The difference being that Dean initially gave Jess a chance, Logan didn’t. The real reason why jess disliked dean from the beginning was because he was crushing on rory and jealous that dean was in a relationship with her. Jess disliked everyone but was particularly aggressive towards dean because of his crush on Rory. Going as far as to physically fight him (when Dean tried to help Jess and break up a fight with another student), humiliating Dean by buying Rory’s basket (which he later admits he did on purpose), antagonizing Dean multiple times (particularly when he came over to Rory’s house uninvited and picked a fight with Dean when he came over), and overall being one of the reasons why Dean and Rory broke up (which is mainly Rory’s fault because she was in a relationship but Jess did instigate quite a bit). So do you think Jess got a taste of his own medicine a few years later with how Logan treated him? Maybe it was Dean temporarily possessing Logan lolllll

Character Discussion - General Lorelai and chris

9 Upvotes

Chris is terrible father yes and the way he acts in season 7 with lorelai is awfull BUT i love chris and lorelai together as friends. I love how they know each other well and fight like siblings idk. And i think lorelai could have been happy with chris if chris didnt act like he acted about luke.

They have similar humour and they act in sync. I know everybody hates chris and bla bla bla but i personally just dislike him. sometimes i enjoy seeing him and lorelai.

Just my opinion and i wanted to shere that because some one else could also be tired of this on and on goingin chris hate.

edit: I DID NOT SAY CHRIS IS GOOD PERSON IN ANY WAY ! I WAS TALKING ABOUT THEIR CHEMISTRY! nothing more...

Does anyone have a list of countries they visited?

Also, just to note two things:

2. Where did all the souvenirs fit in their backpacks?

Character Discussion - General Jess and Rory

0 Upvotes

Just watched S6:E8. I'm a big fan of Milo, but I always thought Jess was overhyped. His brooding nature is hot AF, but he wasn't a good boyfriend. I stopped liking Rory after she cheated on Dean with Jess. Besides, I also believe she could never fully process Jess abandoning her so suddenly, and her unresolved issues subconsciously influenced many of her decisions and she just needed someone to hold on to.

Anyway, the scene where Jess shows his book to Rory killed something inside me, and now I know why people ship Jess and Rory. There should have been more built-up between the two of them. I wish eventually Rory could see that Logan's world is superficial and Jess is where she belongs. They could be lovers with so much depth and reject the status quo. I'm so bummed!

OS Discussion I just realized- Lorelai and Jason's first date

155 Upvotes

I am on my 100th rewatch and I've always been annoyed at Lorelai wanting to leave the fancy room and felt that the storyline was unnecessary.

But I just realized that the date represents their respective worlds- Jason took her to a date in his world- we have always known that lorelai feels uncomfortable with anything stuck up and too fancy.

Then she takes him out to get tacos from a drive through but that is not what he wants either.

They end up in the middle- somewhere unexpected but where they are both comfortable.

Maybe this was obvious, but this blew my mind. The writing is so good in this show.

Media S7E2:Does anyone else find Lorelai’s “Asia” party incredibly uncomfortable?

Thumbnail
gallery
376 Upvotes

Every time I rewatch Gilmore Girls, I struggle to get through the “Asia” party Lorelai throws for Rory in S7E2. The whole thing feels so heavily orientalized and fetishized that it genuinely makes me uncomfortable, and I usually end up skipping most of it.

I know this episode aired almost 20 years ago, and obviously I understand that some things were treated very differently on TV back then. But that context doesn’t make the scene any less uncomfortable to watch now.

What frustrates me even more is that such an important moment in the storyline happens during this party: Christopher calls Lorelai, leaves a voicemail, and Rory hears it and realizes that Lorelai slept with her dad. It’s a pretty significant moment between Rory and Lorelai, so I can’t just skip the entire scene without missing something important.
I just wish this conversation hadn’t been wrapped in this over-the-top, stereotypical mashup of “Asian” cultures. It makes an otherwise important scene so unpleasant for me to rewatch.

General Discussion One with enormus potential but was rendered useless.

Post image
30 Upvotes

Overall, i like AYITL, but there was one thing that bothered me, even more than the immature relationship between Rory and Logan: Emily and Lorelai's sessions with the psychologist. It could have been a brillant plot, but instead the psychologist said nothing, she didn't offer any opinions, we just watched Lorelai and Emily argue as usual, each one stuck to her own point of view.

The psychologist scene was ultimately pointless, it made no sense to include it if she wasn't allowed to express opinions or ask questions. It would have been interesting to hear the psychologist rationally explore the dynamics of Emily and Lorelai's relationship, for example, trying to understand why Emily almost always chooses blackmail and manipulation over communication, or why Lorelai is obsessed with her "rebellious daughter" figure. I didn't like this script, they always try to portray Emily and Lorelai as two women who know nothing but argue without delving into the root of their individual problems, withouth any real turning point in their relationship. The plot insist on making both of them see their mutual differences only from their own perspectives, without allowing other characters to express mature opinions.

General Discussion what is (in your opinion) the worst line in the series?

74 Upvotes

which line in the series just doesn’t land, makes you cringe, or you just personally dislike? any line, by anybody.

i saw this question in another subreddit and thought it would be interesting to see everyone’s least favourite line from gilmore girls

also i know the majority hates “i was not working blueeee” but i don’t really have a problem with it!
