View Full Version : Just discovered this great show! Penny Lane 07-19-2008, 11:05 AM My daughter has the complete series and I am watching it for the first time and loving it! I am just starting on season 2. :D Lodee 07-19-2008, 11:14 AM I did the same thing, but I checked them out at the library. Isn't it cool to be able to just watch them one after another? I was sad when I finished the last season though and there weren't anymore. PrettyinPink55 07-19-2008, 12:22 PM YAY!!! Converts!!!!!!!!!! :D LOL!!!!! Gilmore Girls was truly one of a kind!!! It was smart, sweet, hillarious, and so much more!! There's like a void in my TV schedule without it!!! :( But Penny Lane, Season 2 is great!!! Try not to fall in love with Jess!!! :lol: anna0220 07-19-2008, 01:29 PM Haha I agree. The first episode I caught on TV was the one where Rory starts Yale. I was hooked and immediately ran out and bought the DVD's as they came out. Seasons 1-3 are my all time favorite and of course, I fell in love with Jess! He is still Rory's best b/f without a doubt! anna0220 07-19-2008, 01:35 PM Oh and watch slowly. It's really sad when you rush through them and realize there are no more left. :( I think this was one of the best shows on TV and I'm not sure another show could ever quite reach its level. PrettyinPink55 07-19-2008, 01:43 PM I think this was one of the best shows on TV and I'm not sure another show could ever quite reach its level. This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Gilmore Girls is one of my all-time favorite shows!!! I agree that Jess was Rory's best boyfriend!! I loved Logan and all, and Dean was great the first season before he got all crazy possesive, but nobody beat Rory and Jess's connection!! The characters in the show were so sharply written and drawn, right down to the townies like Taylor and Ms. Patty and Babbette!!! How could we live without Kirk, Paris, Mrs. Kim??:lol: :lol: anna0220 07-19-2008, 05:41 PM Yeah it makes me really sad that Rory and Jess always had bad timing. It seems like in the end though their timing may have been right. I wonder if the relationship didn't fail in real life if they would have made her end up with Jess? anna0220 07-19-2008, 05:45 PM I DVR the re-runs on ABC family and Sookie's wedding just aired. ::::sigh:::: I always watch the scene where Rory and Jess have their first kiss over and over. I think season 2 is my favorite one.

I think season 2 is my favorite one. One of the best scenes indeed!!!! And I thought they made a cute couple in real life!!! I think Milo with Hayden is kinda weird....I liked him with Alexis. I was kinda hoping that when Rory saw Jess that last time, and they kissed, it would mean something more to her...or when she broke up with Logan, she'd look up Jess!!! I mean, he's the one who got her to go back to Yale pretty much!!! anna0220 07-19-2008, 07:56 PM Honestly, I think that was the plan. Everything pointed to Rory and Jess being together when the show ended. I think Milo didn't want to do it anymore. Milo and Hayden is a bit weird but at least they're happy??

Milo and Hayden is a bit weird but at least they're happy?? I would so love a TV movie or something for some closure to tie up those loose ends, but only if it's written by Amy!!! She said in an interview a long time ago, she had the entire last scene of the show worked out in her head. I wonder what it would've been like. I feel bad for Jezebel James...I thought it was a cute idea...but nothing can beat Gilmore!! I wish Amy had stayed that last season!! When ASP left, the show just wasn't the same. It was still great, but I wasn't too keen on the April storyline...though the actress was cute and won me over with her relationship with Luke. I just didn't like how it broke up L/L!! anna0220 07-20-2008, 12:27 PM I actually liked Jezebel James...I was one of the only ones though. Of course it was no Gilmore but it was still a good show. I heard of alot of Gilmore fans boycotting her new show because she left Gilmore....do you think that had anything to do with it failing? I liked April and I liked the side of Luke we saw. I HATED the storyline between Lorelai and Christopher....they got married! That was rediculous. I also hated that Rory wasn't even affected when Jess kissed her. I know she loved Logan but I thought she'd at least pondering it a while. I would love a tv movie too but I read Alexis Bledel isn't sure if she'd do it.

Their timing was never right either. Plus, Lorelai belongs with Luke...everyone knows that!!!! As for Jezebel James not doing well...I don't know...I didn't hear about the boycott, but that wouldn't surprise me because a lot of fans were pretty upset she left the show. Some people speculate she purposefully wrote the show into a hole the sixth season because she was angry about not being able to agree on a contract or something. I don't know if that's true, but I do think the last season was the weakest, obviously. Amy's writing/directing/producing was sharp...the last season, although I loved it, I will always love Gilmore Girls, it just wasn't up to par with the others. You could tell Amy had left. There just isn't a dramedy on TV like Gilmore today...and I don't think there will ever be!! I didn't hear about Alexis not wanting to do the TV movie..why do you think that is?? Oh, and Lauren was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO robbed of an Emmy year after year!! Hell, the entire show was robbed of the thousands of accolades it deserved!!! I know that what the fans think is more important than award recognition, but it would've been nice to see GG at least nominated a couple of times! I think it more than deserved it!! I think if it were on another network, they wouldn't have snubbed their snobby little noses at this gem!! Same with Everwood!!! Shows on The WB/(CW now) seemed to get the shaft because they weren't/aren't taken as seriously. But hell, I know Gilmore Girls and Everwood were so much better than some of the other nominated shows!!! Penny Lane 07-22-2008, 09:44 AM YAY!!! Converts!!!!!!!!!! :D LOL!!!!! Gilmore Girls was truly one of a kind!!! It was smart, sweet, hillarious, and so much more!! There's like a void in my TV schedule without it!!! :( But Penny Lane, Season 2 is great!!! Try not to fall in love with Jess!!! :lol: Jess is way way too young for me! I'll take Luke thank you very much!:lol: PrettyinPink55 07-22-2008, 04:07 PM Jess is way way too young for me! I'll take Luke thank you very much!:lol: Luke.... :eyes: Superstar 07-25-2008, 06:22 PM Wow, this board is active again! :woohoo: I'm actually re-watching the entire series right now (I have the individual season sets), and I'm almost done with season 2 right now. And Neha, I totally agree with you that Lauren was robbed of an Emmy. The closest she ever came to an Emmy was a Golden Globe for the first or second season (I can't really remember :lol: ). I can't help but wonder if the show had been on a more popular network, would Lauren and the show have been nominated? Oh and by the way, am I the only one who dislikes Jess? :lol: PrettyinPink55 07-25-2008, 10:15 PM Wow, this board is active again! :woohoo: I'm actually re-watching the entire series right now (I have the individual season sets), and I'm almost done with season 2 right now.

But hey, we know what a treasure she was and the show was, so who cares about those snooty-ass awards people!! :lol: ;) And yes, you ARE the only one who doesn't like Jess!! HAHA!!! J/K!! :lol: :lol: TJL 07-25-2008, 11:45 PM Davey, I will back you up 100%. Jess was a rotten influence on Rory! Luke should have drowned him in the lake! Book reading poseur! ;) PrettyinPink55 07-26-2008, 11:20 AM Davey, I will back you up 100%. Jess was a rotten influence on Rory! Luke should have drowned him in the lake! Book reading poseur! ;) :lol: :lol: No way!!! Who do you guys consider Rory's best boyfriend then? Mr. Television 07-26-2008, 12:02 PM :lol: :lol: No way!!! Who do you guys consider Rory's best boyfriend then? Dean fan here. :D :lol: TJL 07-26-2008, 12:29 PM :lol: :lol: No way!!! Who do you guys consider Rory's best boyfriend then? Logan had his faults, but I thought he was right for Rory. PrettyinPink55 07-26-2008, 03:47 PM Dean fan here. :D :lol: Even after he cheated on his wife? I have to admit I love season 1 Dean, but then he just became too possesive. And Logan was a breath of fresh air...he was charming and sweet. But he didn't have that same connection as Rory and Jess. Mr. Television 07-26-2008, 04:58 PM Even after he cheated on his wife? I have to admit I love season 1 Dean, but then he just became too possesive. And Logan was a breath of fresh air...he was charming and sweet. But he didn't have that same connection as Rory and Jess. They completely ruined his character. I never thought he should have gotten married. He wasn't over Rory and that always spells disaster. I used to like the scenes between Jess and Dean. They were funny. :lol: I have to admit , Logan did grow on me over time. Superstar 07-26-2008, 05:59 PM :lol: :lol: No way!!! Who do you guys consider Rory's best boyfriend then? The only time that I liked Jess was when he appeared in season 6 and he influenced Rory to go back to school. I honestly don't know who I'd consider to be her best boyfriend.. I liked Dean until he got married, and Logan grew on me eventually. I guess I was never too enthusiastic about any of her boyfriends :lol: Buffyboy323 07-26-2008, 07:15 PM Logan had his faults, but I thought he was right for Rory. I agree 100%. Rory and Logan were great together. He did have his faults, but who doesn't? As far as her and her boyfriends go, I think Rory had the best storylines when she was with Logan. Once he appeared in her life, I think Alexis Bledel showed some of her best acting on the series. TJL 07-27-2008, 03:48 AM I agree 100%. Rory and Logan were great together. He did have his faults, but who doesn't? As far as her and her boyfriends go, I think Rory had the best storylines when she was with Logan. Once he appeared in her life, I think Alexis Bledel showed some of her best acting on the series. Very well said. The Logan/Rory relationship was well done. Dean was okay, but he was a pushover. He tried too hard. I have been in that position myself. You try to be the "nice guy," you get burned. Jess was the "bad boy," but you couldn't depend on him. He would run away in a heartbeat. Logan? He drank too much, he hated his life. That's me. I can totally relate to that. My parents aren't bazillionaires, but you understand where I'm coming from. PrettyinPink55 07-27-2008, 12:11 PM Do you guys like how it ended with Rory and Logan? Superstar 07-30-2008, 06:26 PM Do you guys like how it ended with Rory and Logan? I really didn't like their ending... I felt that the entire ending of the series seemed rushed and a little uncertain :lol: PrettyinPink55 07-30-2008, 06:46 PM I really didn't like their ending... I felt that the entire ending of the series seemed rushed and a little uncertain :lol: Amen to that!!!! I felt we got cheated a bit... Penny Lane 01-23-2009, 11:41 AM I just finished watching the final season. Looks like Lorelei and Luke will reconcile! Will there be a reunion show? Penny Lane 01-23-2009, 11:45 AM This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Gilmore Girls is one of my all-time favorite shows!!! I agree that Jess was Rory's best boyfriend!!
