Pack your chastity belt, Gilmore. You're going to Harvard!

"We were 16, we didn't want to get married!"
"When you get pregnant, you get married. A child needs a mother and a father.""OH MY GOD!"

Where's Veronica Mars' I Am God? Come on guys, do we need to raise another 2 million?

I volunteer for the latter.

Isn't it Adam Reed's mother? I remember reading that somewhere.

The benefit of animation in Daria was that it let Daria be this impassable stone wall of sarcasm and jadedness. She could tear people down without moving an inch while characters like Brittany and Quinn had all of these physical tics that made them seem so much more bubbly and active.

I've always liked the animation for Daria, at least in its normal episodes (it lets down this episode though). The minimal, almost static style feels like it's tied directly into the tone of Daria's voice. I mean, objectively the animation isn't *skillful* or high quality but it serves its purpose.

It probably helps that she didn't have the frosty relationship with Sutcliffe that she had with Scott Paterson.

I don't know. We got Lorelai fulfilling her dream of opening the Dragonfly and her and Luke finally getting together. And I may have be one of the few fans who enjoy the estrangement of Season 6 (more on a conceptual rather than episode-by-episode level) for how it takes a sledgehammer to Rory's character. She *is*

The most disturbing part of that comment for me was the use of 'an' instead of 'a.'

I honestly get teary if I even *imagine* Sam Phillips' sad La-la music cue. It's the one that normally accompanies Lorelai/Rory/Emily looking forlorn in an empty room.

Oh man, I remember it being on Channel Nine on Saturdays(?) and disappearing around mid season 4. Oh Kazaa…

Those seasons deal with a lot of things that needed to be addressed like Rory's sheltered character and her interaction with the upper classes. It's not as high quality episode-by-episode but the stories they tell are excellent.

All you have to do is call my name

"Classic case of fruit blindness. DEALBREAKER!"

We can only have five Quinns though, so we can call it "Quinntet."

ABBA LLAMA.

Fellowes had been beating him with the stupid stick for so long that this one just felt like a deliberate joke.

To be fair, it was their only sentence.

The biggest problem the show has is its inability to depict its characters unsympathetically in any situation with minorities. Robert and half the house laughs off Thomas's homosexuality and Carson's reaction was waaay too moderate considering he's their resident ultra-conservative. Fellowes can't bring himself to
