what did everyone think??
I haven't been posting any opinions so far this season, but I've agreed with everyone about how the show is definitely missing something without the Lorelai-Rory interaction. I do, however, think it's a good storyline, good for the characters, for the show, to FINALLY have a rift between the characters. It's interesting to see how they're dealing with it and it really shows us that those two really need each other (and we need them too!).
That being said, I personally think this episode was a big step in the right direction! Probably my favorite so far this season. I was so excited for the Gilmores and the Huntzbergers to finally have their confrontation! Plus, now that Richard and Emily realize that Lorelai was right and that they've been making a huge mistake with Rory, we can look forward to the first steps back to "normal" - Lorelai and Rory being reunited! (Even though I'm sure they'll drag it out til sweeps!).
Another good sign is that upon seeing Logan's dad again for the first time since the incident, Rory seems to at least somewhat realized that it was his fault she dropped out of Yale...and maybe not just what was "right for her" at the time (I so wanted her to finish confessing to Paris that it was his fault!!).
Speaking of which, I was really happy to have gotten more Paris in this episode, she's definitely my favorite secondary character. Always hilarious!
