No, I'm sure they have. Or at least something similar - that's why I assumed that's what they were going to do.

I thought Michelle's 'do or die' thing was going to be something like creating a more appropriately editorial look out of her existing look.
Surely that would have made a tad more sense than 'NO PLANE FOR YOU'

Oh, @avclub-5eed6c6e569d984796ebca9c1169451e:disqus , I actually kind of meant the opposite - maybe I phrased it badly.
I mean, yes, Paris was a nightmare to deal with, but she generally (sometimes) means well (okay, very occasionally) and just has a very competitive streak.
[General spoilers and stuff]
It's like…

Nor me. Though I also never completely bought that Paris would be friends with Paris and Nic - er, Madeleine and Louise.

Oh yeah, @avclub-73d66a6a344a15201f9a15107723c9e6:disqus , she's legitimately crazy.
[Spoilers and stuff]
I like though, that when they get engaged, it genuinely is the fact that Rory isn't a part of it that makes Lorelai hesitate on setting a date.
I get that it shows the co-dependence again, but it also shows some…

Rory never has any friends though, except for Lane - who she never keeps in touch with - and Paris, who she doesn't even really like.
Oh, I suppose there's Lucy and Olivia, but they don't really count, coming so late in the game.
Also, with Paris, I hated that once they went to Yale and she was an actual friend to Rory,…

Still, though… you don't let Adam Brody go unless it's necessary.

Good point - I don't think she was weary of Dean to begin with just because he was interested in Rory.

Oh, definitely.
I could never, ever be friends with her but I also feel like I am her, which is very confusing from a gender point-of-view.
Though also, she's just one of those characters everyone relates to, I guess.

Yeah, definitely.
As much she's 'her best friend', she's also her crutch that she can use to excuse her behaviour.

I like that she's infuriating, though.
She's a really well realised character.
Though, I mean, having seen Amy Sherman-Palladino interviewed, she's pretty much just her with less horrible '3 Non-Blondes' hats.

Not even a little bit.
But quirky!

While it was a bit skeevy of Max to ask Rory about Lorelai, their whole 'Rory can't interact with Lorelai's men' was always a bit weird to me.
Did she not want Rory to get attached because of a general distrust of men type of thing? 
Maybe that if they don't interact, he isn't properly part of her life and it wouldn't…

Maybe I'll just add it to the growing list of shows-I-should-catch-up-on-and-probably-won't-but-maybe-I'll-be-bored-one-day.
I should also try and shorten the name of my list.
It is not catchy.

You mean old Deadeyes McPhee, @twitter-204091455:disqus ?
I still watch it for some reason, though.
'Some reason' being Megan Hilty and Christian Borle.

So I just have to power through the soapy, schmaltzy nonsense?
It's basically Smash, isn't it?

Is Nashville worth catching up with? 
I watched maybe the first four or five episodes, thought it was decent, got behind on watching and then… stayed behind.
I still listen to Noone Will Ever Love You occasionally, though. 
That's an insanely good song, right there.

Oh, he's in everything.
If someone uses LA in a show/music video, he'll be there.
The first time I saw him, I thought it was André Leon-Talley.

Definitely.
She still looked good and they did a good job of keeping in cover-uppy stuff that she would actually wear, but yeah.

She was genuinely funny until about four/five years ago.
She got too famous and became lazy writing material.
Now she thinks as long as she gives a 'shout-out to her gays', recaps a few shows on Bravo and mentions her mother, it'll do.
To be fair, writing that down, it doesn't look too different to her old stuff, but you…
