Day 25: Gilmore Girls

I have finally joined the masses (again), and I began watching Gilmore Girls over spring break. I had only ever tried the first episode, and it was not enough taste for me to really get my claws dug in just right. Now, I am further into Season 1, and I am loving it. Now, the only problem will be to actually not want to only watch every day all day until I can watch the Netflix new one. Here are my thoughts up to this point.

First of all, I am truly bugged that mother and daughter have the same name.

Second, Lorelai has such interesting clothing taste, but she can work it. I can totally get why she has rules about dating, but she can't even see what she is doing to herself. Is that part of the theme of this show? Side note but DO NOT ANSWER: Is she just going to end up with Luke? (Hart of Dixie--that is how that ends - so does it end the same here?)

Third, Rory is totally great, just like Lorelai says in every show so far. She reminds me of Haidyn, but I think my own daughter is a little more bold. I was predicting a Paris friendship, but will it stick? And why did I not get to see the debate? I really wanted to.

Fourthly, I love the grandpa, and unfortunately, I think I relate the most to the grandma. UGH. I do have high standards, but I am not rich. I totally understand how she is trying to reach out. Will it give me more of the back story of why they have not been in contact for 16 years?

Lastly for now, Sookie and Lane are great. Lane remind me of Cristina in Grey's, as her voice actually sounds like Cristina, but she is so much more spirited. I think Lane and Rory are good for each other, just as Sookie and Lorelai are good for one another. It is so weird that Sookie is Melissa McCarthy, going backwards is very odd.

So far, I like the show. Can you tell? Have you seen it? Do you love it? Does it end well (no, do not tell me!)?
