Right? I was thinking this the whole time, how the fuck does top-of-her-class at Yale end up like this? It seemed like when we left off at season 7 and Rory was 22 she was far more mature and likable than at 32.

I have limited patience for sullen teens on TV, so Jess grated on my nerves during most of the original series. However, in AYITL, he’s the only one who doesn’t coddle or try to rescue Rory. He gives her a pep talk, but basically tells her she needs to figure her shit out. For that, he is a hero and he should run…

I feel we’re being subjected to an awful alternative reality - apparently this is the Gilmore darkest timeline.

Exactly. Her turning up her nose to the Chilton job and then writing that stupid book instead...  she would be *lucky* to teach at a prestigious private school. As an actual 30-something who wants to be a teacher this story line killed me. What 32 year old who is supposedly an intelligent, loving person acts this way?…

Amy Sherman-Palladino’s ending would have been so terrible back in 2007. We would all have been furious at Rory for getting knocked up right out of college and derailing her career like that. At least now, even if unplanned, it’s different. She seems more ready. But seriously girl it is 2016, where was your IUD?

There were so many moments where she was just insufferable. Don’t get me started on the Life and Death Brigade.

The fat shaming was bad enough, but WTF was with them having those boys holding their umbrellas and carrying their equipment? The only way it could have been worse would be if the kids were black. That whole servant thing is never explained and doesn’t fit in. Seriously, WTF?

Also, why is Rory looking down at the Thirty Something Club? Where does she get off doing that? As much as she wants to think otherwise, she’s them. Maybe because she has a trust fund?

This drove me crazy! I was always irked by the whole “we can eat 5,000 calories of sugar and trans fat a day and stay a size 4" thing but at least there was never any outright body shaming or fat phobia in the original series (or rather, I don’t recall there being any).

I knew I hated him when he first referred to her as “Ace”. To this day it’s still nails on a chalkboard to me.

Oh god yes. I had blanked out that whole scene, wtf was that. I can understand them being horrified by a male townsperson talking to them by wearing a really small banana hammock but calling people “back fat”? Someone that Rory has ostensibly known her whole life in that little town? That was weird and cruel and…

I’m starting to backtrack on my similar thoughts about Logan and Christopher. I think Rory and Logan are Richard and Emily, millennial edition. We expect Rory to be Lorelei but she’s way more comfortable with the old money lifestyle. She liked the debutante ball, helping the DAR, etc. She doesn’t want to work in jobs…

Money is fantastic and life without it sucks. But throwing your money around the way these characters do is horrible and I hate them for it.

All of this!

I was surprised by just how bummed I was when they revealed they were cheaters. I mean, c’mon, Rory, you were supposed to learn this lesson with Dean. Also, Rory: you were helllllla pissed about Logan sleeping around during your separation, so why are you doing this? Logan, I thought you had finally grown out of that…

Seriously, they wanted us to think the forgetting about Paul subplot was quirky and funny but honestly, it made zero sense and just served to make Rory and Lorelai look like even bigger assholes.

Same. I watched with two of my friends and afterwards I told them that the Revival borderline ruined the series for me. I may be a bit dramatic, but you are so right on when you say it didn’t feel like the old series. Everything was over the top and the characters were not themselves. Despite not loving Season 7, I…

*Spoilers, yada yada, I know this post is just supposed to be about Logan but I have no one else to talk to about this and I just HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS. Deal.*

Run Jess! Run the other way and never look back!
