Gilmore Girls

I really liked this episode. It was good to see Lorelai have some kind of reaction to the ending of her marriage. I totally understand why she was so afraid to tell her parents. They really haven't been too supportive and understanding in the past. Off course Rory got it right away. In some ways it seems she's known it all along. It was a really nice twist that Lorelai helped out Emily with figuring out all the economics. I loved the scene where Emily gives her credit for all she's achieved in her life. That was such a touching scene. Off course she had to be all Emily-like the next day... I feel really bad for Lorelai. Couldn't Emily just have kept it at the supporting words...?

Great epi, I can't wait for Logan and Rory to play a bigger part now that his company is in trouble... :)

This episode was beautiful because, finally, we get to see the human side of Emily Gilmore. We get to see the woman beneath all the pomp and circumstance, the woman who can support her daughter and be proud of her progress in life and career. It took a bottle of scotch but at least we finally saw a sweet moment between the two. Lauren Graham did a great job showing just how poignant the moment was between the two, just how important her mother's approval was to her.

I really, really loved this episode. I thought that the whole episode was up to par and it feel like an episode that ASP had wrote evan though it was not. I really liked the scene between Babette and Miss Patty in the diner talking in code about who Lorelai belongs with. It seemed really strange to me that Mitchum was giving Rory credit for Logan turning his life around. I felt bad for Logan that he got the news his new company is being sued over some patnets. I was totally shocked with Emily that she seemed fine with Lorelai and Christopher breaking up and that she seemed supportive. But i was not surprised the next day she went back to being the cold person she is.

well i thought that it's a typical gilmore girls episode. it was kind of funny seeing rory flirting with the new "professor", i though writters shouldn't got married lorelai with chris..he is a very important man in their life even when he hadn't been present all the time. they (writters) try to blame chris character of the sad situation of lorelai but he isn't he is a victim...too besides lorelai should get a lesson for having a little selfish kind of live.and i'm not saying it only for chris....that involves emily, richard, LUKE and even Rory. she pushed luke in a hard situation (april's)and she blame him for not wanted to get married...when he needed time to ge through that...

Finally the writers have got it! I have not been that dissapointed in the new writers, they have been doing a good job but i did notice the difference in writing. But now i think they've got it! The scene between Babette and Miss Patty at the diner was so funny and so true! Kirks imput was halarious as usual!



This episode also touched on the development of lorelai and emily's relationship. A brick from the brick wall that is dividing the two was removed. taking their relationship one step closer to being the way they would like it to be.

The scene where Lorelai told her mother that her marriage was over was a bit of a shock, especially to see emily being so comforting towards lorelai. It was good for them.



Im proud of the writers. :) that was a very good episode

This is a really great episode because, not only is Christopher NOT in it (I am an L&L fan ALL THE WAY!!!), but it was a grea plot for an after break-up episode on a show! This episod had all the wit, the fun, as old Gilmore times! I loved how Lorelai just went ahead and told Emily about her break-up with Christopher near the end of the episode...of course, they WERE drinking...hmmm. But it was still funny, especially how like, the next day, Emily was mad at Lorelai about it, ha ha! I think this was a great episode!

I am so glad that Emily did not give Lorelai grief about her failed marriage. In fact, she was quite supportive and it was a real bonding moment for the mother and daughter. This was one of the best moments of the episode and probably the best one ever between them that I have seen.



When Luke overheard Liz and T.J. talking about him, he did not seem surprised when Liz said that Luke and Lorelai belong together. In fact, I think he seemed relieved. This gives me hope that they are not going to drag out Luke and Lorelai's separation.



To have all these months with Luke and Lorelai barely interacting whether they were together or not was not the best thing for the show. Since day one of Gilmore Girls shows, Luke and Lorelai had amazing rapport. To have practically a whole season without that was not a great decision.



It is time they forgive each other and are at least friends again. Maybe even friends with benefits.

I love when Emily and Lorelai talk...and apparently alcohol hleps to loosen Emily's tongue. While I completely appreciated the canoe metaphor, I have to say, I had much the same reaction as Lorelai...because seriously can you picture Emily in a canoe? But the paddling in circles without Richard was a great image. As was Emily's description of Lorelai as a kayak. The two have such an interesting, and often painful, relationship, that it is always great to see them actually talking. I did find Emily's reaction strange the next morning. I know she has problems expressing her feelings, but she was cold, even for her.



I think they have done a poor job convincing us that Logan works all that hard. He seems to spend a lot of time with Rory. Just telling us he works hard seems kind of unbelievable. As well as the fact that he could put up 3 million of his money and his father have not clue. Mitchum was his typical overbearing self. Rory totally got Huntzbergered...sometimes I just wish she would grow up. She is about to graduate. We finally get some confirmation that Luke knows about the breakup, but not much of a reaction, which is par for the course with Luke. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to swallow the break-up, but they are handling it better than they did the rushed courtship and the mess that was made last season with April. We shall see.

It's about time Emily saw Lorelai for the intelligent woman that she has become. Emily giving Lorelai a compliment had to be hard, but it was due time. This episode reminds me of Season 4's episode 'Scene in a Mall'. Emily was angry with Richard and was shopping frantically. She ran into Lorelai and Rory at the mall and they made her "chill out" at the food court. Emily mentioned to Rory, when she came back to the table, that she was admiring Lorelai's life. Rory said, "She did that on a regular basis."

It's good, well written and maybe the best episode on Season 7 that I watched without boring anytime. Mitchum make a return, I don't know why. But I hope we can learn it soon. Maybe he see that Rory is best for his spoiled son. But after everything there is a drama about mothers and daughters, who never can be friends

This episode is a classic episode where you see that even though Loreli is a grown woman she is still afraid to inform her parents about major changes in her life, especially in her love life. I thought that the story line with Richard and Emily arguing over the food was a little bit too much but it fit into the story line nicely when Emily and Loreli are in Richard study and actually getting along. It was great to see that Emily can actually loosen up after a couple of drinks.

The story line involving Rory and Logan was interesting but I think that there could have been more to it. It was just average for me. She realizes Logan never had a birthday party so she decorates in a way that involves all of her birthday themes and then after recieving a phone call from Mitchum Huntzburger Logan and her go out to dinner where Mitchum tells Rory how she is good for Logan and how Rory and him (Mitchum) could team up to guide Logan in the way he should be going. I thought there would be like an argument where Rory defends her intentions or something but there was nothing. This episode was a little disappointing but still good to watch.

This is nothing like the Gilmore Girls I know and love, not even close. I sat there watching wondering when something, anything, would finaly happen, but no, nothing. I got a little excited to see that Emily might for once be supportive of her daughter, however, everything went back to normal the next day, when Emily "ice queen" Gilmore returned. I understand she is stressed about her husband, and it was obvious that she was going to take it out on Lorelai, but why show her being supportive and then just take it back in the end? Another scene that was very odd was the dinner with Mitchum. I was very confused as to why he thought he needed Rory to help him, and why he would bribe her with a job. Mitchum thinks very highly of himself, and would most likey never admit that it wasn't all because of him that Logan turned out the way he did. That scene was just not a very good one. All in all, it was a boring and horribly uneventful episode.

Christopher and Lorelai are done and all that's left to do is for her to tell everyone. Of course, new travel fast in Stars Hollow and so even Luke has already found out about it. The talk between Mrs. Patty and Babette was really funny and Kirk butting in on their conversation was hilarious!



It was cleverly plotted that TJ and Liz stayed at Luke's house at this exact day, cause it offered an interesting perspective of Luke's and Lorelai's relationship. That metaphor with the parallel universes and the wormwhole they'd have to find to get back together - classic! I really loved it and it's so true! And IMO you could almost see Luke thinking the same thing and getting his hopes up. I really think they are gonna find that whole and get back together in one universe!



Rory was Huntzbergered. Mitchum telling her what a great asset she is to their family and how he thinks she changed Logan... for a minute I thought he was being nice, but he was just manipulating her... Anyway, it's sad that Logan's business has failed and I really hope he'll find a way out of it - other than working for his dad and taking over the Huntzberger fortune. He seemed to like his job and this new person he was becoming. I'd hate to see him go back to his old ways or chose to do as his father told him... but I'm sure they'll work it out, he has really matured and they'll get through this together!

lorelai breaks the news about her and chris to rory who is not at all suprised. i feel how rory feels about no suprise tat they split yet she is also forlorn. i thought how rory and lorelai got lost in the middle of nowhere was funny. emily goes psychotic about richards health leaving richard cranky. hearing emily say the word "fishy" was hilarious. logans birthday is in this episode and rory goes all out. liz & tj move in wit luke. mitchum told rory she was talented over a b-day dinner for logan. lorelai tells emily about chris who quickly brushes it off. logan becomes aware of a problem with his company.

I really liked this episode. I mean it is a pretty sad episode. Lorelai and Chris are finally over – that wasn’t a surprise for me. What was nice to see, that hit the road. Why? Because it is/was a reference to the older seasons. Remember the times when the girls hit the road back then? What I didn’t like, that it was that short. I mean no strange adventure – nothing.



Then the dinner – Lorelai looks really great in that blue dress. Don’t you think too? The dinner is rather funny. The hiding maid as well – that’s just hilarious.

All the scenes in the Gilmore House are great this time, especially that hilarious phone call. Then the drinking scene, the mother daughter bonding: I really like that. It felt really good to see that. Well I mean I never even expected that to happen. The snippy commentary the morning after was harsh, but to be expected.



In between, we can watch Rory and Logan celebrating – or better go out for dinner with his father. I was confused about him, telling all these old stories. I think that was bad writing, since he wasn’t enough focused on himself with these stories.

Then one thing, a theory of mine, I want to tell you here: For Logan’s dad the best thing ever that ever could happen is happening right now: Logan is loosing all his money, leaving Logan with no other choice than to work for his father – Logan would finally be under control.

It was fun to see Rory go all out with Logan's birthday, but the dinner was kind of strange. And after "you've been Gilmored", is "you've been Huntzbergered" really not funny. At all.

And I'm really sad BalconyBuddy is over. Emily's reaction was kind of strange but I loved their kind of bonding with the business stuff. And of course the Kayak and Canoe, the crazy references are hereditary! Emily's rant made me wonder, how much did she drink ;)

But seriously, Emily and Lorelai need more mother daughter moments like that. It's so great to see them get along for a while.

Luke, Liz and TJ.. well I thought those parts were really boring. They just filled up the left over minutes, it's not that I hate them or something. But give em a real storyline or something!

When the episode started I thought it was off to a great start. I loved that Lorelai came and picked Rory up for a drive just like after she broke up with Max, that road trip episode is one of my all time favourites because of the bonding between Lor and Rory. When they got in the car to go for a drive I thought that I was in for another great Gilmore road trip. Unfortunately it only lasted until the first commercial break and then was never mentioned again.

I loved Emily this week, she was up to her old tricks, and both times shes gotten dunk she has been hysterical. As happy as I was that Richard didn't die, I hated him this week. He was grumpy and boring and did nothing to aid in the story development other than allowing Emily and Lorelai to bond over his computer but that could have been done anywhere. I really liked seeing Mitchum again and I thought that the Rory/Logan/Mitchum storyline will be a great set up to some drama in the coming episodes. I've been missing Lane recently, I think Babette has been in more episodes than she has and Lane has more interesting things going on in her life than ever. As far as Luke goes, I wish they would hurry up and have him and Lorelai be friendly again instead of having to bring in TJ and Liz just to get him into the show. I know at this point it sounds like I hated the show I really didn't there were some great moments and lots of laughs, and I think that it set up lots of upcoming stories but it didn't really accomplish much other than that.

It was such a sweet moment when Emily gave Lorelai a peptalk.. It was such a sweet mother daughter moment..even if it was alcohol induced. The sad thing was how her mother treated her the next day.

I think Luke will change and come back to Lorelai..I'm just not so sure she will be open to taking him back.

Good episode. I found myself clapping at times. The end was pretty lousy, they had no final line or something, but still, impressive work. Quite wierd Emily's reaction to the news that Chris and Lorelai broke up. She's been supporting this couple for years and she was thrilled hearing they got married and she wanted to organize the wedding for them, etc. Now she just said "ok". I thought Emily was more stubborn and everything had to go her own way. But the alcohol can be an excuse, so it's not that out of character. :)



Good to have the maids back, the chef was great when he decided to quit. The nurse - very good. Miss Patty & Babbette ggggrrreaaaat!!!! Loved that talk. Oh and Kirk... I missed him so bad!



Rory. She was astonishing-looking at the dinner. WOW! Loved her idea about Logan's birthday party, but too bad they were the only ones there. Logan is twenty-five and I suppose he has some friends too. Or maybe they could invite some Yale mates. Also, maybe a good ocasion for Rory and Lucy to catch up. It's weird that they haven't been talking since they made up.



And speaking of friends, what happend to Lane? She had a huge ball underneath her shirt and it's been almost a month since we haven't seen her. Is she on vacation or what?



Sorry for being so harsh, but I'm hoping for an increase in the quality of the show. It's really good, but I'm expecting more. I can't wait for the next eppy :)

So Lorelai is determined to tell her parents about the split, of course she ends up doing it while her and her mother are drunk. And in the morning Emily isnt as supporting as she was the night before. Rory celebrates Logan's birthday, but the night she plans is cut short when Logan's Dad invites them to a birthday dinner. Of course its too much to expect from him to be civilized, and Rory is "Hunzbergered". After Logan and Rory begin to do her events that she planned for him, Logan gets a phone call that his business deal isnt as successful as he expected... Richard is going crazy due to his restrictions of food... Luke hints he still loves Lorelai.. the rumours and events set in place.... its another fantastic GG... can wait for the next one!

A lot of things happened.. The C/L storyline is closed now, everyone knows and Lorelai is moving forward as she put it herself. It was nice to see Rory being supportive for Lorelai, but that she didn't hesitate to say that she wasn't surprised.



Another thing that happened is that Luke may start thinking about Lorelai again. Hearing people talk about you, saying whether you belong with a person or not will make you think no matter what, especially when that person is single again. I think this is definitely opening a new but subtle route to Lorelai/Luke.



Another thing that happened is a new arc for Rory and Logan. Their scenes were really cute, especially the first one with the whole breakfast thing and trying to make up for the birthday.. Really adorable.

The conversation with Mitchum was awkward but it was good to see Gregg Henry back on the show. I really like him as Logan's dad. And it's nice to see them more accepting of Rory, but I wish that Mitchum would credit Logan a bit more about his accomplishments. The hat in the end was cute but so sad when Logan heard about his business deal... Really sad.. It will be interesting though to see how that will play out.



Emily and Richard.. It's funny to see Richard grow tiresome of all the fish and the fishy fish :lol: That FND diner scene was really cute and funny. I also liked the Emily and Lorelai scenes in the study, especially when Emily held her shoulder.. That was really moving, especially Lorelai's face. So sad though that Emily had a complete 180 the next morning. But the moments we had were nice.



Yoga, Paris and Doyle!! Lovely combination!! So funny!

The whole secret code thing in the diner was fun too.. I love Babette, Kirk and Patty!

It was also funny to see the girls without gas.. Great scene!



I really liked the ep.. It really build up to future storylines IMO.

I loved this episode. Is was so funny when Paris and Doyle opend the whole thing with yoga; Paris peaceful? LOL. Also Miss Patty and Babette in the diner talking about hens and beagles and Kirk freaking out about the perverse mating - hilarious. And so sad for Logan not having a real birthday party, and it is so unfair that his business when to crap. But his a Huntzburger; if he can't make it who will? Poor Richard, eating only healthy food and no scotch, thank God for Sukie!



I really loved the mother-daughter moment between Emily and Lorelai. But classic Emily when she went cold the next morning. Didn't really care for the whole Aurora-story; haven't that already been done in the Palladino-era?



Still, a great episode! If they keep this up and soon we will be saying Amy-Who?

I really like season 7 so far. I didn't feel bad or worried when Amy Sherman Palladino left the show. I think Gilmore Girls can be good with anyone with a little talent. This episode showed us that the new team is as talented as Palladino's. I mean, I laughed my ass of to the Molotov Mocktail joke. And the conversation between Miss Patty and Babette was hilarious. I really hope we're not watching the last episodes of the series. I want another season at least. I want to see all-happy Luke-Lorelai. When it comes to Rory, she's getting a little boring, telling everything to Logan. Maybe writers are sending her away. As Mitchum said, she will go to another country and work as a reporter while Logan "finds" himself. This will give us an 8th season without Alexis Bledel which won't be that bad as long as we have the-most-beautiful-women in the world: Lauren Graham.

This series is finally getting back to the series I fell in love with! Lor goes to Rory's & takes her for a drive to tell her that she & chris are no more. I liked the way Rory took it. I was worried she would get mad, but I think the writers handled that really well.



Logan admits to never having a normal kid's birthday party & Rory sets out to correct that, but is thrown off track when Mitchum decides to take them out for dinner. They have an awkward conversation about Logan's future. She discusses it with Logan after & he is not worried. They are getting ready to start celebrating his birthday the "Gilmore" way when he gets a call that tell him his new company is worthless. He doesn't tell Rory & they head out to iceskate.



Liz, TJ & baby Doolah stay with Luke for a night while their home is being fumigated. Luke casually mentions goign to see Richard in the hospital & Liz & TJ have opposing views. TJ says Lor is bad for Luke, but Liz is thrilled & sats Lotr is his destiny. It was sweet to see how worried they are about him.



Best was getting to see Miss Patty & Babette discussing Lor & Chris' breakup using the animal analogy. It was classic!



Lor finally broke down & told her mom about her & Chris while they shared a few drinks. Her mom was oddly supportive. I loved watching a tipsy Emily try & explain her Kayak/ canoe theory to Lor. It was so cute watching her reach for the bright side. Then it was back to Emily-as-usual in the morning making pointed comments about cancelling party plans.

There have been some episode that I have liked this season and some that I haven't, for various reasons, but this is honestly the first time where it's really felt like Gilmore Girls again. I can't quite put my finger on it but something just felt like the old days before the serious depression of the end of season 6 and the slightly off beginning of this season.



Lorelai seriously had to muster up some guts to tell Emily about her impending divorce, especially considering Emily's track record. For a moment though Emily seemed really genuine with Lorelai and concerned, she consoled her and everything. It seemed like really Emily was finally taking it easy on Lorelai but she could not hold her tongue, she had to say something. That's part of why sometimes I don't like Emily that much, she's just so hard on Lorelai a lot of the time and yet she basicly said herself that Lorelai's a pretty impressive gal. In other Christopher/Lorelai divorce related news seems that not only has Babette and Miss Patty found out but Luke has also gotten word. At first he seems pretty nonchalant and calm about the whole thing even telling Liz and Tj (who are staying with him) that they are just friends now and shirking off his visit to the hospital when Richard had his heart attack. It's all actually really believeable, too. And yet! Later that night when Liz and Tj are up trying to get their daughter asleep Luke over hears them conversing about how he seems lonely, especially now that April is gone. Naturally, Lorelai's name comes up. And Luke gets this look I mean it's so sullen and introspective you can just see that not only is he probably really lonely but Lorelai is slowly creeping back into his thought, and not as just a friend thank you. I feel it coming! How much longer are they gonna make us wait!

The first scene of the show was a bit strange (driving around and running out of gas), but the exchange between Lorelai and Rory was sweet. Rory is alway there to support her mother. I think she said everything that needed to be said.



It was nice to have a bit of the Stars Hollow flavor in the show when Patty and Babette were chatting about the hen, the beagle and the rooster. It was one of many funny exchanges in this episode. Let me also comment on how fabulous Liz Torres is looking



Luke is really seeming like a lost soul. He dealt patiently with Liz and T.J. which seemed a little out of character. Maybe once he's back together with Lorelai he will be back to his lovable but irascible self. May I also say thumbs up to writers for sending April to New Mexico hopefully we won't have to see too much more of her.



It's really too bad that Emily has to be drunk before she could show Lorelai any care or compassion. I liked that the writers had her back to her old self the next morning...I mean really, would any of us have believed that Emily all of a sudden became the warm and fuzzy kind of mother that Lorelai had always wanted?



I think the writers are doing a fabulous job of the dialogue but I found the scenes a bit scattered or disconnected. Perhaps they are trying to tie up loose ends to make way for a hasty retreat...i.e. series finale. Oh no....sad! I hope Rory noticed all the red flags waving during that birthday dinner. She's more mature now so I'm sure Mitchum won't have the same impact that he once did. She needs to put both Huntzbergers behind her.



I will enjoy being back in Stars Hollow next week.

Fantastic episode. Some great acting by Kelly Bishop and Lauren Graham. Perhaps the most heart-rending moments came when they were both a little tipsy. I was so proud of Emily and her ability to, for once, set judgements aside and just be there of her daughter. Too bad those sentiments vanished by the next morning. As always, Logan and Rory are adorable, in an oddly non-sickening kind of way. They're just real. They don't gush over each other all the time, but are simply at ease in each other's presence. Great episode, I couldn't be more pleased with the way things are going right now, despite the fact that this season we no long have our beloved Palamino's writing there are still some great pop-culture references and just very smart, witty writing.

I loved all the Rory and Logan stuff, very gilmore. I have always thought that the Huntzberger family plot line for Rory was great and I like the way the story is going for her, somewhere! and lol loved Emily's little speech on being a canoe. All the Lorelai and Emily stuff was so great, perfect! Loved the Luke, Liz and TJ stuff as well. Luke is so lonely, oh we got some hope here ppl! That whole thing was very cute! The Hen should be with Rooster...absolutel loved that bit with miss patty and babette. We have our girls back, i think! hmmm I like that Emily was ok with the break up, when she was drunk anyway, it was nice and brought them a little closer and I think it was important for her, in the end to be really ticked tho, more Emily, but i do think that their relationship is getting better. We have windmills?? lol

OMG! Could Gilmore Girls get any better? I think this show is so fraking amazing! i love gilmore girls. Lauren Graham is my favorite actress in the whole entire world! This episode was so great! And Lorelai and Emily had such a sweet moment then Emily had to ruin it at the end...but still, they were cute all episode.

the writer did a great job with this episode. the conversations between the lorelai and emily was great. he showed that emily was supportive of lorelai but her harsh has to do with keeping lorelai independent because it is her motivation for wanting her independence. I alsoo like the conversation with Babette and Mrs Patty using anagrams of animals for the people, its shows the kind of animals that the writers she them in.

Logan and Rory relationship seem to be telling each other everything. Rory seem to also want Logan to know about everything that concern him, which is not very Rory, but is of a typical relationship.

the episode seem to point to Lorelai and Luke geting back together or at least most people in the town seem to believe it and so do i.

leaving that speculation is classic and very good writing.
