Did they always fight that dirty with each other and my tolerance is just lower?? Or was this especially bloody, because ouch. The tongue is what's mightier than the sword.<br /><br />I HATE that Rory and Logan are dating other people as well as each other. No no no no no. Nothing good can come out of this and I really hoped that if Rory was going to get back together with an old love interest, it would be him.<br /><br />Loved seeing that Lorelei's relationship with snow hasn't changed and I feel a deep kinship with Rory's struggles to find her place in the real world.Laure Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00692780015410946019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-84703547965059033452016-11-26T23:01:51.999-05:002016-11-26T23:01:51.999-05:00Mallena, the revival is exactly like the series wa...Mallena, the revival is exactly like the series was, only ten years later. It probably does seem surreal. Maybe we all just got sucked into a surreal series. :)Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-30273929581115519322016-11-26T21:55:33.426-05:002016-11-26T21:55:33.426-05:00I didn't really watch that many episodes of Gi...I didn't really watch that many episodes of Gilmore Girls when it was airing years ago. I mostly read articles about it, because it did get lots of press. Because of all the hype of this revival, I did want to watch it, but I was surprised by the style of this. It felt like a play, like the walls of the set were just out of view. The character emoted in a dramatic way with dramatic pauses between long speeches. Comical characters that didn't make a lot of sense to me, came in and out of the scenes doing weird things. I'm not saying I didn't like it, but as someone not that familiar with this show, it felt odd. Was it supposed to feel surreal, or was that just me?

But I was so relieved and then overjoyed to see that this re-boot was fantastic!<br /><br />I've seen all 4 episodes. Don't worry, no spoilers from me. Were there things I would have liked them to have done differently? Sure. But the 4 episodes captured the spirit of Gilmore Girls, moved their story along and provided opportunities to catch up with everyone!<br /><br />I won't comment on the end (I promised no spoilers). But while many will wonder, I was very satisfied. It was delicious!Heather1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09736870202194851186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-17252178364029984532016-11-25T20:12:51.632-05:002016-11-25T20:12:51.632-05:00It was wonderful.

Of course, for me it hasn't been that long since I watched the entire series for the first time quite recently.<br /><br />It's hard to decide what I liked best because there was so much. Rory tap dancing to relieve stress. Luke's wifi passwords. Everybody forgetting Paul the boyfriend. The sewer stories. The troubadour chasing out his sister. Paul Anka. And the funeral was heartbreaking. I liked that a family actually moved in on Emily because she deserves it after firing three thousand maids. And I liked that Emily didn't seem to mind.<br /><br />Clearly, Rory needs to make some decisions about her life. I haven't seen the other three yet, but I bet that's the focus. Plus I think it's time that Lorelai commits to Luke. Why hasn't she married him?<br /><br />Lovely review, Josie. :)<br />Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
