  • Luke and Lorelai attend Liz's wedding, Rory calls Dean to get her away from a bar. Great episode.

    9.5
    "Superb"
    It wasn't what I was expecting but no doubt that it was great. The chemistry between Luke and Lorelai was at an all time high and when they danced you can just tell there meant to be together. What was even better was Luke asking her on a date after, I can't wait for them to be a couple. Also Jess seems to be getting his feelings in order, he tells Luke how grateful he is and even asks Rory to go away with him.

    These were great scene, Jess and Luke actually showing like for each other. Jess putting his feelings on the table and begging Rory to go with him. It was sad to see him leave, but it was the right thing. Will we see him again? Plus Dean lies to Lindsey about where he is which makes Rory uncomfortable. Dean was stupid to get married when he's clearly in love with Rory.

    Emily hiding the separation was amusing and it was funny to see her set up Rory on a date, who turns out to be not so great. Liz and TJ were good enough here, even if he's a bit annoying. Can't wait for the next episode!moreless

  • Luke take Lorelai to his sister's wedding. rory goes on a bad date.

    "Superb"
    This is my absolute favorite episode. Its sweet, well writen , and possibly the best episode. The part with the wedding service. With the crazy Mason family look-a-like flower girl. The over the top " Yahtzee, im winning" singing preacher truelly outlines the craziness of the episode. my favorite part was the dance shared between the second eldest Gilmore and a certain Diner owner. The song was reflecting light, and if you look closely you can see the two getting closer to each other throughout the dance. The end resulted in her telling him , her favorite part was the dance, and him asking her out. All time, best episode. Flat-outmoreless

  • Liz's wedding and a new step between Luke and Lorelai

    And the wedding is coming, all town is getting ready for the ceremony and now is Jess' turn to read the books and do something.
    Most finals are over except for Rory and I have to say that's bad, everyone happy going home and you can't lol

    And I saw another thing I never thought would happen, striptease at Luke's diner!!!Relax don't do it!! lol
    And Emily setting Rory up with a friend's son, Graham.
    I loved the wedding, it was amazing, really beautiful, with a typical riped dress with the bride lol
    And that talk about Lorelai being a really good sister-in-law and all. The wedding was great.

    And Mrs Kim, she take a step froward and visited Lane, she made them dress up and look respectful but you know Mrs Kim, she had to run out the door lol. If it wasn't Lorelai calming her down, "boys are girls". That worked out perfectly.

    Graham and Rory wasn't a good idea, I knew she would call Dean to pick her up.

    I was so happy to see Luke and Lorelai dancing, they started apart, really apart but then they came closer and closer, I loved to see that. And he made another move, asking her out for a movie.

    And I have to say, I knew Rory wouldn't go with Jess, it was brave of him saying those things but the timing was all wrong, he lost her.moreless

    Episodes like these are why I watch Gilmore Girls. It has the fast talking comedy we all know and love combined with the drama that is equally loved.
    The whole Renaissance-themed wedding was funny enough even without Luke and Lorelai's commentary and T.J.'s new found love of tights. And finally some development for the Luke and Lorelai relationship. Their slow dance at the wedding and then Luke asking her out, I was so happy it was happening!
    Though the ending for this episode depressed me. Rory turning down Jess. I love Jess and I love him and Rory together, so much more than Dean and Rory together...Seriously does anyone like that?
    And you can tell Jess has changed and grown up a lot and he had made his feelings clear previously, although he didn't really follow through but this time he did. That takes courage and the fact that Rory turned him down, without explanation I might add, really annoys me!
    Now begins a Dean and Rory thing again, is their anything more annoying. At least Logan comes into it next season...he's better than Dean. But still I wish Rory and Jess could have ended up together!moreless

  • I absulutly LOVE this Episode!!

    "Perfect"
    This episode was just so totally AWSOME!! i can't decide what was my favourite part!! I loved the Wedding, Loreali looked so totally amazing, and Luke looked realy handsome. He was so nervouse, and i love that it was because he was taking Loreali, and, man, did T.J love those tights. And i also can't belive that his real name is Gary!! And Crazy Carrie really IS crazy. I mean, the way she flirts with Luke? And she's MARRIED!! She is just so sick. And in Season 5, after Luke and Loreali have broken up, and he's working on the sets for The Fiddler on the Roof show, what she says to him!! I can't belive that Liz is her friend. Oh well. And the vows! Liz's was so totally sweet, and romantic. T.J's was a bit silly, but they were made for each other. And i LOVED the waltz. Luke can so waltz!! And i loved the look on Loreali's face, right after he leaves her after walking her home, and asking her out?! Mouth opean wide, eyes a bit boulgy. Classic!! Well, i have just said all that i can say about this truly fantastic episode.moreless

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Lorelai: It involves the "J" word. Rory: Oh, not more about Jesus. I'm sick of him and Mel Gibson.
      Rory is referring to the 2004 movie The Passion of Christ, which was co-written, co-produced and directed by Mel Gibson. It was considered by some to be one of the most controversial movies of all time. Edit
    • Lorelai: Think they know any Zeppelin? (Two women dance down the aisle tossing roses) Ooh, roses -- nice. Luke: Does she remind you of someone? Lorelai: Can you say Leslie Van Houten? (A jester tumbles down the aisle) Now, that's impressive. Leslie Van Houten was a member of Charles Manson's 'Family'. She was convicted of the murders of Rosemary and Leno LaBianca. She was sentenced to death in 1971 but a year later her sentence was commuted. She has applied and been denied parole 16 times...the last time being September 7, 2006. This is the second time Lorelai has referenced a member the murderous Manson Family. The last time was in Season 2, Episode 12, "Richard in Stars Hollow" when she spoke of Patricia Krenwinkle... Lorelai: Rory's my kid and I make the rules, so if she comes home one day and says, 'Hey, uh, I'm gonna spend the weekend with Patricia Krenwinkle' I say, 'Okay, grab a sweater,' you just have to deal.
