02/03/21 - Day Five - God Save the Lorelai


So...reached the episode with great-gramma.

Her name is clearly Queen Lorelai I.



Lorelai Jr. broke up with Dean and I'm reserving my thoughts for now. I'm curious to see if that storyline goes any further.

  So, it’s fall and Lorelai’s “doing Wild” and it’s just as stupid as you think it is.   Yeah...you know, "Wild"? Like the 2014 movie with Reese Witherspoon? It's a trend or something in Purgatory. Please don't ask me to explain it. Anyway, Rory starts seeing weird stuff around town and it turns out that the Life and Death Brigade are back!  Logan and his buds come through and they have a pretty awesome night that even this old curmudgeon thought was pretty cool. I mean, really.  I was very entertained. Side note: Luke now thinks Lorelai left to find herself and she could leave him because that makes sense. Hello, insecurity! Anyway, after the night of debauchery, Rory decides that the fun is over. It was very Wendy and Lost Boys. It was adorable. So, Rory signs off with Logan. Finally. It’s a good breakup. As hardcore Logalai as I am, this is a breakup that makes sense, mostly, so I have no objections. Meanwhile, Lorelai never actually goes hiking because she'...

05/13/21 Summah Time, Summah Time Loving, Loving in the Summah tiiime

It’s summer and Rory is back in Stars Hollow. She keeps saying she’s not back, but she is.  April’s visiting and she’s all nose rings and German films...only she’s a total poseur, which was cute. I laughed. Anyway, Rory is bored and wants to hang with Logan, but Logan has a fiance...that’s moved in, now. Rory. Come on. Seriously?  Anyway, town meeting - there’s a thirty-something gang full of people who failed in life and have moved back home, they’re doing a musical, and they have broken air conditioning. The town paper is closing so, Rory decides to get it back up and running. Michel has come back from wherever and Lorelai’s still worried about him leaving and why do they have boys holding parasols over their heads? Did they buy young boys for the summer? Side note: Just heard Babette use the term clam jam and I’m scarred for life. And Lorelai’s correct. There is no such thing as Kinky Boots as a character, but, you know, Taylor is just doing his job as purgatory demon so yo...

05/05/2021 Day Forty-Two - What's wrong with the Writers?

Okay, Logan and Rory are living with Paris and Doyle (much to Paris’ chagrin). Meh. Side note: Luke is doing the dad thing. His daughter is becoming less and less nerdy with every episode. Double Meh. We find out that Lane and Zach’s baby’s names are Kwan and Steve. (groan) and Taylor is doing his job as purgatory demon and decided to spend all the budget on a haybale maze that covers the whole town and thereby screwing up everyone’s businesses.  But purgatory demon didn’t account for his allergies. Heh. But even weirder, everyone loves the maze? Anyway, Lorelai gets roped into hosting the Spring Fling festival at the hotel and Rory is coming home with Logan and it’s a big deal like Lorelai Sr. has never met him before. “Oh, my God you’re bringing a BOY home.” Like...they’ve met and had conversations multiple times and hasn’t he been at their house before? Hey, writers! Maybe watch a few past episodes? Get up to speed before writing a “we get to meet the boy for the first time” epi...
