Season 3: Episode 17: A Tale of Poes and Fire
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, we're back to discuss another week of theory. This week we have Season 3: Episode 17: A Tale of Poems and Fire. This episode pushes to be a climactic point in Season 3, leaving us with much to discuss! We have some superb pop culture references, and discuss all of the comparing and contrasting this episode presents! This it is, and nothing more!

Here we go! 2.5 years of Gilmore Girls built up to this moment - the big envelope! But so much more happens in this episode before we even get to the mailbox for round 2.

Season 1: Episode 18: The Third Lorelai
Cheers! Welcome back to Growing Up Gilmore! This week we are discussing Season 1: Episode 18: The Third Lorelai. In this episode we tackle a lot of relationships: Lorelai the third and Emily, Rory and Tristan, Rory and Paris, and Lorelai and Emily - wish a dash of Lorelai and Rory too (told you it was a lot)! For a stand alone episode, we learn a lot about the original Lorelai - one being that she's God (according to Lorelai). We review an afternoon tea spread and enjoy the finer things for a change - we may quit Pop-Tarts altogether now!

Season 1: Episode 17: The Break-Up Part II
After last week's surprise ending (who are we kidding - we knew it was coming), we take off from where we ended. In this episode we discuss boxing up feelings and things after relationships, the importance of wallowing, and high school parties. We want to say it's a heavier episode, but we are so over Dean and Max that you will completely forget we are discussing a major break-up moment. Overall, Lauren Graham is an amazing actress, and we owe so much to her in this episode. We review Rory's wallowing snacks, and choose our own. Grab your wallowing...

Season 1: Episode 16: Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers
So we meet again! This week we are discussing Season 1: Episode 16: Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers. We discuss the dynamic shift of Rory and Dean's relationship, how Lorelai is a romantic holding onto the past (but can wake herself up quickly), and how Emily thinks Lorelai needs to find a man. We finally meet Rachel and see what all the fuss is about too. It's a big episode that presents us with a ton of character development. We enjoy two different recipes of Founder's Day Punch and completely understand what Luke means by saying it's toxic. Happy listening!

Season 1: Episode 15: Christopher Returns
Glad to see you're back for more! This week is a longer episode because we dive in pretty deep to Christopher returning and what that means for our Gilmore girls. You will learn early on that we are not fans of Christopher Hayden - the actor and the character. We enjoy some vodka martinis and discuss why Christopher really came back, Lorelai's relationship with Richard, and Rory's meaningful relationship with her grandparents. We cannot forget Lorelai standing up Luke! So much happens in this episode! Pour yourself some coffee (or a martini) and enjoy this week's episode. ...

Season 1: Episode 14: That Damn Donna Reed
Warning: If you love Dean, this may not be the episode for you. This week we take a long look at “That Damn Donna Reed” and all of the unconscious thoughts that make their way to the surface in this episode. We question the Gilmore Girls and their intentions for the evening - why did Rory feel that dressing up and making dinner was a good idea? Did Lorelai really only invite Luke over to look for Stella? We may never know, but speculating is fun! We review the Fantasy Lime Supreme from The Official Gilmore Girls Cookbook, and Elys...
