Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

Rory Gilmore's just the worst.

Joins Arrested Development and X-Files on the list of underwhelming TV revivals, I'm sad to say. Emily Gilmore's arc is the only thing that works and satisfies across the course of the four episodes. Lorelai's arc feels weirdly stalled (there was no reason we needed her and Luke to have been unmarried for a decade now), and Rory's arc... whew. A "THIS is what they came up with after all this time to think about it?!" disaster.

almost none of the charms of the original series. felt like it was endlessly annoying, ended on a bad cliffhanger. Rory is not the person we thought she would be - which is fine - but she became unlikeable. And she was already pretty unlikeable. Lorelai even more so.

storyline of rory and logan is just weird

I kinda love watching Rory fail I'm so sorry. here for a divorcee paris/rory otp arc in the next one, pls

Really not great especially since Gilmore Girls was so damn good. But this wasn't the worst.

I hate reboots. I like when stories end. Also, they almost never work. This is an exception. Though it's completely unnecessary and even rather predictable, it's nice to see a good series pick up pretty much right where it left off. The palpable absence of one of the series' best assets, Edward Hermann, is frustrating but the writing handles his death fairly well.

very good

W2E1P1S0V1M1R1. I did really enjoy the show, and if this had been woven into the finale of the actual series it would have made for a better final season. But as a standalone excuse to pander to fans, without enough time to really explain all the unlikely circumstances, I'm definitely left with a worse overall feeling about Gilmore Girls than when it last ended.
