It's a show, it's a lifestyle, it's a religion...it's Gilmore Girls.
Some parts of this show have aged like Kirk's easter eggs, and some parts were more like expensive marzipan - never palatable to begin with. And yet, once it starts getting dark early, once I start feeling a primordial need for Carole King and soup, it seems like the world agrees it's officially Gilmore Girls rewatch time. So grab a blanket, light a candle, order some pizza, and curl up to hear how this show so effectively keeps us coming back for more.
