Oof. That "China Girl" title, and its usage in the plot summary, is rough. I'm still excited, but oof.

Are we supposed to agree with the Pfeffermans about the hospital or see them as acting like classist snobs?

Friggin millennials.

Midnight Diner rules.

Then it just feels like we've been without it forever.

F6 was the good one. And I'm pretty sure The Dissolve had already folded before F7 came out.

Chelsea did it! Chelsea did it!

It wasn't all her research. Steinbeck used it to support his own research. And it's unclear if he even knew they were Babb's notes, since he got them from Tom Collins, who he dedicated the book to.

I'm with you. And it does't help that Best Picture keeps going to movies about movies.

He'll be whatever adjectives describe Bruce Greenwood.

Too bad the show won't actually be about him but about some random FBI agent who may or may not play by the rules.

I got the impression that the writers had lost interest in Rory. Lorelai received significantly more attention (and so did Sutton Foster) and the storylines that Rory did have either comical or rehashed.
