I started off the day with the Gilmore Girls theme song stuck in my head. As the day progressed, it became the Golden Girls theme and then, to my never-ending shame, the Friends theme song. To try to rid myself of that horrible Friends theme, I actively tried to switch back to the Gilmore Girls theme. I can’t! I can’t remember it now! It’s like the suck of that damn song has shorted out my memory! (But I can still remember the Golden Girls theme. If the Golden Girls theme was on American Horror Story: Coven, it would have become the Supreme.)

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 20 “P.S. I Lo…”
EPISODE 20!!! Oh shit, I am SO CLOSE to the end of the first season. I hope this episode has more exciting plot points than last episode – the only noteworthy thing from that one was “Judgy WASP Mom wears ugly shoes.”
During the cold open, Lorelai and Rory play “One Two Three He’s Yours” which is a game where they get three chances to “find” a husband based on the random men that walk by. Lorelai gets stuck with Kirk from the supermarket and is sad. Rory gets an eyeful of Floppy and is sad.
I’ve always found the best way to start any story is from a place where everyone is sad and would like to die. It makes the audience feel good.

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 19 “Emily in Wonderland”
Time for Judgy WASP Mom to go antiquing in Stars Hollow! I hope she buys Miss Patty’s discarded drums and dances nude atop them for Spacey Grandpa.
There are no baby pictures of Lorelai because she had an abnormally large head as a baby. She was unsightly, which was probably the one and only time anyone will ever write that about Lorelai Gilmore.
Rumor has it that she looked like this:

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 18 “The Third Lorelai”
There are things in this life that we as humans wait for. Our first kiss. Our first sexual experience. Godzilla. We stand on the shore waiting for that fateful day when the thing we’ve always wondered about will crest the horizon and BE. What will it be like? Will we like it? Hate it? Be disappointed? This is the true meaning of life.
This time, the Gilmores are the ones standing on the shores awaiting the Unknown. They’re awaiting…Spacey Grandpa’s mom, Lorelai the First (who must be about 1000 years old.) She will descend from the skies and bring with her…delicious tea cookies? Jaunty hats? CORGIES??????
Whatever it is, Judgy WASP Mom sure as hell won’t like it.

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 17 “The Breakup, Part II”
We pick up right where we left off – Rory home from her date with Floppy. She doesn’t want to tell Lorelai why they broke up. She starts throwing away all the things that remind her of Floppy – considering he would routinely knock on her window and he’s come over for movie night, I’m guessing this episode is the one where Rory burns the house to the ground?

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 16 “Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers”
Stars Hollow is really big on “events.” The historical reenactment. The Christmas Parade. The Horn of Plenty. And now some Firelight celebration. Yay firelove or some such shit. Can’t you people ignore your neighbors and exchanged tight-lipped smiles at Starbucks like the rest of us do? All this involvement and “town spirit” gives me the agita. (Also, the fact that this town is so obviously the Warner Brothers lot is pretty fucking hilarious.)
In addition to the weird town happiness celebration, it’s Rory and Floppy Hair’s 3 month anniversary. It’s adorable that they’re keeping track by month the way you only do when you’re in high school. Awww….

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 1, Episode 15 “Christopher Returns”
Man, oh man. Am I SO GLAD they brought Rory’s estranged father onto this show! I have to be honest – there are a few things happening on this show that I care about more that Christopher. Here’s my very short list:
Things Happening on the Gilmore Girls that I Care About More Than Christopher

That’s it. That’s the list.
