Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 5, Episode 19 “But I’m a Gilmore”

Jen1 Comment

SO CLOSE TO THE END OF THIS SEASON. I don’t think I’ll ever catch up to the Gilmore Guys. But there is a good chance I will finish the entire series before the new episodes are released. I just thank God that Amy Sherman-Palladino is a better writer than Chris Carter. Because that X-Files revival? Save the joy of seeing Mulder and Scully pal around again and one amazing episode featuring a Were-Monster (and Kumail Nanjiani!), the season was lackluster. And the premier and finale were complete ass. Ever wonder what would happen if you gave an anti-vaxxer, a chemtrail truther, and your Tea Party Uncle the green light to write two hours of television? That was “My Struggle” parts 1 & 2.

At least we got this out of the revival:

io9 – Thank you for preserving this moment for internet posterity. We can only hope the Gilmore revival will produce something 20% as magical as this gif.

Review: Gilmore Girls – Season 5, Episode 18 “To Die and Let Diorama”

I was in a good mood before I sat down to write this. It’s only noon on Sunday and I’ve already accomplished the following:

  • Laundry
  • Cleaning the apartment (including dusting!)
  • Planted an herb garden for my kitchen window
  • Consumed 1 latte
  • Read three comic books from my giant “to read” comic book pile

Look how much I’ve gotten done! Look how accomplished! How adult! Time to sit down and write a review! I’ll finish early and have time to try and work on OTHER writing! How exciting!

So I was in a good mood. Until I saw this:
