Gilmore Girls

[schmoosie]

Boils and Sores Alley. Ok that was really dumb. Sookie was dumb.

The whole episode was kinda blah for me. I only saw the first half, lost interest and came to play on the computer. Did I miss anything?

[CAgirl]

Not really. The street name didn't change back to Third Steet. Her mom was the one who was sending all the boxes. Emily asked Loralei if she wanted her dollhouse, and she said yes. But if she wanted it she had to get it herself at the house by the next day. She was too busy to go get it so Emily said she would give it to good will. The last scene was Loralei's dad showing up at her door with the dollhouse and saying they need to talk about Rory.

The End.

How the HELL does Rory not know what a Birkin bag is? Sex & the City had a Birkin ep. Will & Grace have had a Birkin ep. She went to a really rich highschool and then went to Yale. HOW has she not heard of a Birkin? Hell, the box and dust cover both said Hermes in the traditional orange box. Has she not heard of Hermes?

Every time Rory comes on the screen I just want to kill her. Now I want to kill her and steal her purse.

And I also want to hurt the stupid WB promo monkeys that made it look like Emily found something in her room all along but it was just the Birkin. And the overly promoted Richard at Loralei's door only showed up in the last minute? Grrrr.

But I guess next week Emily finds condoms and is shocked to find out that Rory and Logan are having sex. Ummmm DUH!!! (I looked at the preview synopsis thing on the WB site)

[pathtaken]

Yes, those Wb promos are so bizarre, the way they lead you to believe something totally not there.

Sores and Boils was stupid, and a waste of time.

I also did not know what a Birken bag was, I am girlie things challanged.

Is Rory's poolhouse strangely decorated or is it just me?

First off, yes, it is very very strangely decorated. I'm always sort of confused by it because it's ugly and mismatched and I can't see Emily having that done to a room. The rest of the house looks so nice.

Second, I can understand if the average person doesn't know what a Birkin Bag is. Hell, I'd never heard of it until the SATC ep where Samantha gets put on a waiting list and then it was over on TWOP people were chatting about them in the forums and I found out how much they are and how expensive they are (vintage ones have been auctioned off for as much as $60,000 but new ones range from $5,000 to $20,000---I'd say Rory's was in the $10,000-$15,000 range).

I just can't believe that Rory wouldn't know. You know, being Emily's granddaughter, working at the DAR, going to Chilton, I would think she's been surrounded by handbags that cost as much as cars. She'd have at least heard of Hermes. Heck, after the Oprah incident who hasn't heard of them.

I live in frickin Snooseville,Alberta and I know what a Birkin Bag is although I dream of a Channel bag. Didn't Rory and her Grandma spend last summer in Paris shopping?

For a minute I couldn't figure out what was going on but then I realized they screwed up the continuity, when Loralie received the package at the Inn when she was talking to Sookie and Michele. The delivery man kept flashing behind her off and on when she was talking and when he was beside her. Did anyone else notice this?

The rest of the show - BORING, BORING, BORING WHAT A LETDOWN.

I live in a small town like Stars Hollow and we do not act stupid like these people. We have horrendous fights and then are best friends a week later. We actually have sex and the amount of affairs that go on is amazing. Come On give Miss Patty a lover - like Michelle, and an Affair for Georgette, Kirk is probably a transvestite, Taylor could be addicted to Internet Porn that is more true small town stuff. Then you have to have the good guy dad of the year of the year who turns out to be a wanted Bank Robber. (we did)

I didn't understand why Emily would go through the trouble of packing up all and sundry of household items to send to Luke's, to Lorelai's, or to the Inn, but she couldn't pack up the dollhouse.

Also, didn't Emily drag Richard to the poolhouse to snoop around, and then yell at him, "How can I find something when I don't know what you're looking for?" If snooping was her idea, why is it Richard's fault that they don't know exactly what they're snooping for? Did I misunderstand that?

It's weird that Lorelai says she's so busy, but spends a lot of time going to silly town meetings, eating junk food, watching tv, watching old movies, and hanging out with Sookie. When do they run the Inn?

Question 1:
Emily is desperately trying to connect with Lorelei, but has no clue how to do so. She figured sending all that crap would get Lorelei to call. When that didn't work, she went to the big gun - the dollhouse. However, since the dollhouse is more valuable to both Emily and Lorelei, the stakes are greater - Lorelei has to come to the house and get it. (Which is probably also why Richard brought the dollhouse to Lorelei.)

Question 2:
Emily dragged Richard to the poolhouse to snoop because Richard wants to know what Rory's plans are. (Hence the bizarre questioning of Logan.) Richard doesn't have a clue what, if anything, in the poolhouse would answer his question, but Emily just dragged him in there to use her favorite method of intelligence gathering.

I must not be reading my In Style magazines closely enough, since I didn't have the foggiest what a Birkin (sp?) bag was--I've heard they were on Sex In The City too, but I don't watch that show.
