I like Gilmore Girls. There I said it. Thats right I James C. Romo enjoy watching / listening to Rory and Lorelai riff off of each other endlessly and often to the point of absurdity. I care if Lorelai and Luke ever get together, I wonder if Logan can ever change his ways enough for Rory, I love/hate Emily and Richard so much it feels like they are family, I want to strangle Paris, and I would eat pretty much anything Sookie St. James puts in front of me. I mean this show has the title characters refer to themselves as "those Gilmore Girls" a gimmick that would usually send me running for the hills to watch an episode of Breaking Bad to try to recover, and manages to make it down right adorable! This show is like Aaron Sorkin and Jenji Kohan had a love child that was then raised by non other than the lovable Lorelai Gilmore herself. Yes it is that quippy, which admittedly grates on my senses at times. Despite my initial standoffish position on the show, I like it! I know I know "like" seems a tad cold shouldery, but I hesitate, to give it the stronger L word, (no not lesbians). You see, because I am about ten years late to the party, I have the ability to see this for what it is, a really really good fling. Amazing while it lasts but ultimately doomed to end. Sure I can drag it on a bit longer, but eventually I will have to pack my bags, head on back to fall semester and sing summer nights in the high school parking lot. So while fighting the urge to declare my love for this show I am here to tell you, if you haven't yet, go watch it! All seasons of Gilmore girls are on Netflix and this show is highly bingeable! If you are a 90's era child with a sense of humor and a high capacity to understand obscure references you will love this show. If you are an angsty teen looking for relatable people, you will love this show. If you like television and have a brain capable of allowing your eyeballs and ears to receive information you, will, love, this, show.
Go! Drink coffee, and don't forget.
In Omnia Paratus!...
(Just watch the show you'll understand, alright ace?)
