Gilmore Girls’ Memorable Love Triangles

July 1, 2010 By arieanna 7 Comments

Beliefnet recently put together a list of the “Top 10 Movie/TV Love Triangles” in honor of the Eclipse release. The list includes, however, an homage to Gilmore Girls… to the TWO major love triangles of the series.

Rory, Dean, and Jess from ‘Gilmore Girls.’

Watching Rory fall for beautiful boy Dean, her first love, was so sweet, but when the brilliant, bad-boy Jess came to Stars Hollow, he took romance to a whole other level, and turned out to be a better, if not more tumultuous match for Rory.

Lorelai, Max, and Luke from ‘Gilmore Girls.‘

Luke might be perpetually rough around the edges, but his gruff yet utterly vulnerable charm was leagues above clean cut, English teacher Max. It just took Lorelai forever to realize it.

I’m surprised the latter was Max and not Christopher!!

Why Does Logan Give Rory a Birkin?

April 25, 2010 By arieanna 4 Comments

In ‘Welcome to the Dollhouse‘, Logan gives Rory a Birkin Bag – a bag that has a wait list of up to a year and is ridiculously expensive. Rory has no idea that it’s such an expensive and sought-after purse, but Logan knows his sister, Honor, will fill her in.

Why did Logan get this purse for Rory? What does it mean? Do you think Honor suggested it to him?

Is Logan Smarter than Rory?

March 12, 2010 By arieanna 7 Comments

In ‘So… Good Talk‘, Rory tells Lorelai that she and Logan have “definitely started something.” To me, it sounds like she’s definitely thinking ‘relationship’ here (does Rory ever think any other way??), but she wants Lorelai to be ok with it. She says Logan is beautiful and ‘smarter than her’. Do you think Logan is smarter than Rory? If so, why? Or why not? Why would Rory say this?

What Does Logan Hint At?

February 10, 2010 By arieanna Leave a Comment

In ‘You Jump, I Jump, Jack‘, one of my favorite episodes, after Rory follows Logan to jump off the scaffolding, Logan tells her that she did good. When Rory replies, “it’s a once in a lifetime experience!”, he says “Only if you want it to be…” An open ended question!

Is this Logan inviting Rory to be a member of the Life and Death Brigade (is she a member after this??) or is he hinting at dating?

Logan's "Master and Commander" Reference

February 1, 2010 By arieanna Leave a Comment

In ‘Written in the Stars‘, Logan tells Rory to call him “Master and Commander.” He says it in a very arrogant way as he walks off. Rory sees the movie reference, and gives him an “Ugh”, but many of you may not know about the movie or what perhaps Logan means by this. So let’s check it out!

Master and Commander is both a book book series and a movie based on those books. The film takes place during the Napoleonic Wars on a British man-of-war ship that is ordered to pursue a French ship. There is a fairly lengthy plot description on Wikipedia. Have a read there then come back and discuss… why does Logan make this reference? What does he mean when he wants Rory to call him “Master and Commander”?

Why Does Rory Continue to See Dean?

January 27, 2010 By arieanna 23 Comments

In ‘Say Goodbye to Daisy Miller‘, Rory starts off the season in tears after Lorelai confronts her about sleeping with Dean, her married ex-boyfriend. Rory may have felt some shame at the time, or perhaps just didn’t want her moment ruined, but when Dean comes to see her later, things move from talking to kissing very quickly. Rory puts up no fight whatsoever.

Why do you think Rory is so ready to ignore her better judgement when it comes to Dean in this situation? And why would she be willing to be “stupid” for Dean and not for Jess? A curious situation, that one!!

Who Did Rory Blow It With?

January 25, 2010 By arieanna 14 Comments

In ‘Raincoats and Recipes‘, Rory is once again conflicted about Jess and Dean. She talks about how perfect Jess was, though he has already ditched her twice. At the same time, she talks about how she always knew Dean would be there. You put those two together, and you see Rory’s dilemma – the guys are both perfect in opposite ways. What Rory is really looking for is a combination of Jess and Dean, don’t you think?

Anyway, in this episode, Rory says to Lane, “I blew it.” Who do you think Rory meant she blew it with? With Dean or with Jess? Or is she referring to them both?
