Why would it be remembered you ask? Well, if you must ask, you definitely didn’t have the uncomfortable pleasure of watching an unforgettable Lorelai Gilmore meltdown. It was as bad as watching a stand-up comic fail miserably in front of an entire audience. Poor Lorelai, drunk as a skunk, finally realized what the audience has been thinking for weeks. How on earth is LANE KIM getting married and not LORELAI? Where is the justice in that?
Aside from the painful final 10 minutes, the episode was classic Gilmore. No doubt a credit to the fact that it was written and directed by GG’s creative force Amy Sherman-Palladino. The fake buddhist wedding, Priceless! The Koreans running to the church for seats (58 seats, 62 koreans!) The Bachelor/Bachelorette parties intercepting – seriously, what do people actually do past 9pm in Stars Hollow? Mrs. Kim’s explanation to Lane about her ‘Wedding Night Responsibilities!’ and another amazing, yet brief performance by Paris – it wouldn’t be ‘classic Gilmore’ without Paris. The episode was great, and I’m really looking forward to the final 3 episodes of the season.
A few random observations:
1) Lorelai said ‘fracking’ – who’s the Battlestar Galactica fan on the show?
2) Why does Lane have two random friends. I love how TV always throws in a few extra ‘extras’ so it looks like Lane has more then Rory for a friend.
3) Speaking of Rory, is she auditioning for BIG LOVE? why the awful wedding dress?
4) I wish I had a t-mobile sidekick (seriously!)
5) How awesome is Lorelai, she looked so great in that dress. I loved the Korean men thinking she was ‘working’ Stars Hollow
6) I could watch Paris read a phone book.
