But, the upside is that I actually enjoyed the last two episodes. The thanksgiving episode and that time that Jess said he didn't want to go to the Winter Festival until they bumped into Dean and his sister and he decided to TRASH HIS LITTLE SISTER.
Tell me again why I'm supposed to like him? I mean, who does that? She's twelve!
So, Rory just got back from London for Christmas and the Chriselai family is celebrating Christmas after Christmas, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, Luke needs a character reference letter and Lorelai is all “ IDON’TKNOWWHATTOWRITEDON’TTELLCHRISTOPHER ”. You know. Because Christopher is a toddler. And by the way, the way Lorelai is acting...why does it remind me of an abused wife? She’s all, “I just don’t want to upset him anymore” and I’m like, “ Girl, he is upsetting himself !” So, anyway, of course, Christopher finds out and behaves exactly like we all expect him to. Like a huge insecure brat. And listen, don’t y’all at me about that. That letter was beautiful, yeah, but it wasn’t a profession of love. It was a glowing character reference. Christopher’s all “iT’s A lOvE lEtTeR.” I swear I’ve never seen such a skillful self-sabotage in my life. She said to him, “I CHOSE YOU STUPID!” and he’s still like, “I’m nobody’s second fiddle!” I mean, I don’t ship Chriselai. Totally rooting...
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...
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'...
