Maybe in season one, but even then I thought her situation was well fleshed out and she was a near complete being. Season three of course is where she began to stand out further, but she was always interesting and almost always outshone Bledel in their scenes together.

I'm sorry. "PS I Lo…" and "Emily in Wonderland" are dull? Your 'Gilmore' fan cred be gone. Both are top twenty episodes of the series.

I don't consider it a classic. Like most of season two it's cute, light and mostly inconsequential. It was fun seeing Emily be so desperate to bond with Lorelai.

I don't really think of Lane as "Rory's best friend". She felt like her own fully formed self, even more than Sookie. She was never a sidekick. Also, she had a lot of personality. How could anyone consider her bland, especially in relation to Rory?

He lost to Cranston and Kyle Chandler.

I understand that some are getting tired of reading the same complaints about this season (I did enjoy this episode BTW). But asking for "credentials" when someone gives their opinion about a movie or TV show is such an old and punk move. Instead of asking me to give further details of my problems with this episode

This was the first episode of the season that approached greatness if only because there were things actually happening, and none of those things was Don’s affair. Still, the execution left something to be desired. There’s so much awkwardness in its current form. Some line readings and the pacing in some scenes just

Love these two episodes, especially 'The Wallow' one.

Keri Russell is its only real shot, though a surprise writing nod is possible.

Even as a parody this is just too crude and not at all funny. Just Tyler being his typical hack, way too on the nose self.

Ringing true is fine, but this episode was about delivering laughs. Then again, I don't mind cartoonish when it's as well executed as it was here.

Yeah. But aren't all getting used to the "uh, hmmm, what the hell are you talking about Todd" moments? There's at least two of them per every review..

Yeah, but once you become a decent looking guy with money who works in Hollywood and puts gel in your hair your nerd card is revoked. #realnerdsrevolt

What happened to the good old days when nerds actually looked like nerds not vaguely awkward but conventionally semi-cute dudes with gelled hair?

It feels like the show has punished Betty more than Don. Don has become more and more dissatisfied, but how has he been "punished"? I don't find Don that interesting any longer, but I think your perspective is way off.

This was the best episode of the season. From my perspective that's not saying much. The season is getting progressively better with each episode, though it still has yet to be genuinely good. The MLK assassination was definitely handled better than JFK's. Here, the characters were forced to interact and didn't just

It can't be all put on ASP. I wouldn't even put half of the blame on the way she ended season six. I mean, was it necessary to have Lorelai and Chris get married? Why did they even have to date? Rory and Logan clearly should have broken up earlier. More focus on Emily and Richard would have helped as well. But the

In the first half of season one he shows unapologetic adoration to Rory. That is, until their silly argument in 'Donna Reed'. Here is the first and perhaps only time his behavior actually resembles the angst of a typical teenager. After this, all his crappy antics come off as just ways to move the plot in the

I don't mind that Lorelai can sometimes be an a-hole (especially when written by Dan Palladino). Otherwise, she'd just be too perfect and Emily would just be a villain.

This is sorta why I was hoping someone with little familiarity with Gilmore girls was doing these reviews. There's so much focus on what happens in later seasons.
