    Emily is emotionally abusive to the extreme. I love her character too, but she and Richard were not good parents. There is more to being a parent then giving your child stuff. That was the problem. They were judgmental and oppressive and Emily wanted Lorelai to be a mini her. Didn't they want to force Lorelai to marry Christopher when she got pregnant?
    Also, Lorelai left and didn't take anything from her parents until Rory was sixteen. I don't think that even remotely means that she owes them for everything.

  • I still don't get the intense animosity that Lorelai had for Emily

    A part of me wishes I could get behind that theory, but given that ASP planned those as the final four words originally I can't. I also don't think Rory would tell Lorelai in such a way, and without Luke. If it was their baby she'd tell them together.
    Hamilton cast expected to apologize for expressing concerns. What happened to 1st Amendment?

  • The baby is Lorelais and Lukes!

    Right? I have a huge girl crush on Alexis, so I am fine with her not quitting the show business. I like seeing her in things, even the stupid ones.
    I have to say, after watching 1 picture of her; and perhaps a 3 second close up of her face in a Hannibal Mask (
    ) in the Handmaid's Tale's Trailer I think she was much better than all her other work combined. She's not bad if the character's right.

  • Has Alexis always been such a bad actress?

    Agreed one of the biggest disappointments of the revival was them not already being married and having kids. They could of had flashbacks of a wedding or thrown them a 10 year anniversary party where it feels like a wedding. Having them seem like they were going through a rough patch was weird. But I get that Lorelai was going through something because of her dads death and she had an emotional moment in Fall where she finally realized what was inportant in life. Instead of running away she decided to embrace life and marry Luke. She finally allowed herself to be happy. I knew going into the revival that they wouldn't be married so the one thing I wanted was to see them get married and that was the best part for me.

    I personally have mixed feelings about the revival. I actually had low expectations going into it and only had a couple of things that I wanted to see: Lorelai marrying Luke and Emily moving on from Richard in a way that would bring new meaning and purpose to her life. So for that I was happy. I would have rather seen Luke and Lorelai already married with kids but you can't have everything. I agree that you would think after almost 10 years Lorelai would feel secure and happy with Luke but I think she needed her dads death to show her that life is short and marriage is a step she needed to allow herself to take.
    Rory's storyline was incredibly disappointing. I saw things in her personal life going a completely different wayalso I was hoping she would become a teacher at Chilton I thought that would of been a great move on her part. The book idea was okay but also a huge cliche and she didn't even come up with idea. The final four words is also a big cliche and disturbing when you think about it. Can't believe Amy always wanted to end the original that way.
    I would of loved more Sookie, a more subdued Paris that's happily married to Doyle. That scene at Chilton seemed very over the top though Liza is still awesome at the role and Paris always was crazy! The fact that she got so much done in 10 years was the most unrealistic thing about her story. I also wished we knew what Dean was doing work wise, I got the impression he no longer lives in the Hollow. And he has very much moved on! The full circle nonsense makes no sense with Logan and Jess. I wish Jess and Rory had more of a friendship. And I wanted Rory to end up with Logan.
    The worst part to me in general was Summer. I wish Carol King had sung Where You Lead and not I Feel the Earth Move. Also wish we had more of the theme song instead of just at the end. The scene after the funeral was bad but the story Lorelai tells when she calls Emily was fantastic. I loved Fall the best. The scenes with Logan and Rory were good. I know some people despise that part. I loved the music and the mood surrounding that whole sequence. All in all it was okay. Not great but not terrible.
