Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)Lorelai and Sookie host a special dinner for the town at the inn. Really good episode! hide show
This was a great episode, it was good to have everyone together, all the cast appeared which I think is a first. I actually like the whole idea of the Dean, Rory and Jess triangle, its interesting and very entertaining. Emily and Richards problems also added to the episode. It was cool to see Sookie and Lorelai so excited about the dinner, it was a fun idea.
The snowman thing was funny at the start, when the head fell of and they gave up for coffee. Sookie telling everyone about getting in character was enjoyable, very amusing. Liked how Jackson didn't want the part they gave him but they ignored him until he caved into doing it. I felt bad for them when it had to be cancelled.
Luckily then the better idea of inviting all of Stars Hollow was thought of. Very good way of getting everyone together. Richards work is getting him down, it was well done how they made sure to show us this. Dean helping Jess in a fight is just what he does, I think this could become an entertaining rivalry.
It was enjoyable to see Richard so chipper and happy, even the affect it had on Emily was good. It was good to see jess and Luke being so a like, like with the soup and Jess making the comment about eating before they arrived and Luke agreed. The glares that Jess gives Rory just show that he's interested, but is she? I think so .....
Paris and Rory kind of got on in the episode, Rory actually invited Paris who seemed grateful, funny scene when she was on the phone with 'nanny'. Paris's talk with Lorelai was funny, Lorelai's face was great, how surprised and uninterested she looked. The dinner itself was good, funny moments, like when Mrs Kim asked Babette if they said grace and she laughed, but then did it, hilarious.
Richard's news about retirement wasn't a huge surprise, I was thinking that when he was acting so happy. Emily obviously would be annoyed. The sleigh rides were great, we got Luke and Lorelai, there great friends but obviously like each other, Emily and Richard, was good to see them getting on well.
Then we have Rory and Jess, he is actually nice in this scene and it was good to see them connect about the snowmen. But then he asks about Dean and says he doesn't think he's Rory's type, it leaves you thinking. Ill say now that I think Jess knocked that guys snowman down, so Rory could win.
Richard and Emily make up, good to see Richard explain himself, which he does well. Then the end was good, Dean saw Jess giving Rory a look and Rory was smiling - can't wait to see how this goes! Look forward to more of the season.

To replace the party, Lorelai decides to invite the whole town to have a party and sleep at the inn. Everybody comes and it's a big extravaganza! Richard and Emily are still at odds, but at the party, Richard seems delightful and Emily is enjoying it. At dinner, Richard admits that he's happy because he retired, which shocks Emily. Rory seems to show a little interest in Jess, which makes Dean jealous. Rory invites Paris to come to the party. Christopher calls to invite Rory over, but Lorelai doesn't want her to go. Emily and Richard make up.
This episode was pretty good! I didn't love it like usual, but it wasn't bad at all! I give this episode a 9.0 out of 10!

The snow is back and there is a snowman contest.
The Independence Inn is hosting an 19th century dinner for a company from Chicago.
Because of the snow, the company is trapped and there is no way they could make it to the dinner.
Suddenly, at Luke's Lorelai and Sookie get an idea for not wasting all the food, they will throw a dinner to their friends.
Everyone is invited even Paris, when she goes there to give Rory some articles for the newspaper.
We have waiters dressed as if we were in the 19th century, the food is for the season too and also the music.
In this episode we start to see the looks between Rory and Jess.
a Rory & Jess episode. hide show
BraceBridge dinner is one of my favorite gg episodes. It really shows that Rory & Jess like each other. It shows that when you least expect it, love is around the corner. I love the Midevil theme they had with the dinner. The whole episode was great. The horses, the snow outside, the trees, everything was perfect.
