Tuesday Night shows

Once again, real time thoughts. My mind doesn't wander nearly as much as last week, but I'm not making any progress on the "letting go" thing that I mentioned last week.


Anna wants to move herself and April to New Mexico. BWAH! It’s like a dream come true! Not for me-I don’t care that much. But I’ve seen some posters wish for that to happen. Huh… if you wish hard enough for something to happen on a show, it will happen?
*Starts wishing*
*Makes Hiro face*
Is it working? Not yet? *keeps wishing*

Why is Liz having the baby now? Wasn't DMG in May? Ohhh, wait... that wasn't necessarily when she got pregnant. Perhaps she was two or three months along then. Which would make sense, if it was three months, and then it would be now. So just ignore me because I just answered my own question!

The knit storyline is boring me. Zzzzzz…

I love love love Sookie and Lorelai wondering what guys do. It’s just so… old-school, and it’s fantastic!

I really feel for April with the “I’m gonna be a weird, dorky, loser girl with no friends!” A place I’ve been in. Except I’ve never moved, but I’ve gone to new schools where I knew no one.

Hee, Paris and Doyle crack me up!! I love them dancing.

I forgot how young Rory is. I literally forgot that she's only 22. When they were talking about Lucy turning 21, I wondered why and how Rory became such good friends with people so much younger than her. She's been acting so mature this season, and combine that with the living off-campus, in a committed relationship, that I somehow put her as my age in my head. Especially when they started talking about the theme of the party being 2002 - I turned 21 in 2002!

How much do I love that Jackson=Stars Hollow? It’s so true, though, because Jackson is the epitome of cute, quaint Stars Hollow without being over-the-top like some people (KG and TD, I’m looking at you!) are. He’s solid, real - salt-of-the-earth.

Ugh. Anna is such a selfish bitch. And not in the good way. And here comes the “my daughter” part. Hello, she’s Luke’s daughter, too. “They are my decisions to make, not yours.” Um, no. The decisions that concern April need to be made by both of you together. Luke is truly her dad now; he’s not just her father. He’s not bio-dad (TM Claire Bennet). Last year, she kept going on about how people can’t go in and out of April’s life - well, Luke’s trying to not let that happen.

Awwwww!!! Liz and TJ are so sweet as parents! And look - it’s Uncle Luke!! There’s only one thing that would make this scene even better than it already is. Family member missing! “Doula.” Hee. That’s so them. And that’s a really sweet “hee.” Awwwww!! I’m about dying from the cuteness!

I didn’t notice Taylor’s outfit before. HAHAHA!!

Ooh, Chris throwing money around. That’s not the way you do things in Stars Hollow, Christopher! I appreciate the sentiment, but it’s about akin to Logan offering to take Rory to AC for her birthday last year. Just something not quite in the spirit. Was that only a year ago? A little over, but still. But the real difference is that it was a year ago, and a lot can -- and did -- happen in a year. One of the two men (I use the term loosely) mentioned in this paragraph grew up a tremendous amount in the last year. Look at where we were last Thanksgiving. Logan was trying to escape the pain of not being with Rory by drinking and fucking. Christopher had come into a lot of money and wanted to buy Lorelai (... and Rory {as an afterthought}) castles or whatever. Now, he's still throwing his money around, and he's still not being thoughtful, he's just tossing money at what he perceives as a problem. Logan, on the other hand, has matured so much -- he also has the money to throw around but he doesn't try. When there's a problem, he works it out. Or deals with it. He doesn't throw money around for the sake of it.

Awww, Rory and Marty are getting sweet again! And then he ruins it with the “you’re more beautiful than ever.” So not a platonic tone/sentiment, Marty!

Seriously, why can’t any guy get over a Gilmore Girl? This is really pissing me off. I had high hopes for them reviving their friendship without the romance mucking it up again. But noooo!! (TM John Belushi) He has to have more-than-friendly-feelings for her! He has to break out the “I’m in love with you” tone!

This smackdown has been a long time coming. “She’s not just your daughter!” Thank you, Luke, you’re expressing everything we’ve been yelling at you for almost a year!! Angry!Luke - finally!!!

Wow, that’s the first time in a while that I’ve actually cheered at the end of an episode. YES!! Go Luke!!

Next week: The Green Monster rears its ugly head. To which I also say: YES!!!

And Veronica -- I don't have as much thoughts on this show as I usually do, but I'll put them behind the cut anyway.

First, I'm glad they didn't drag out the rape storyline until the season finale. I think it was a really good choice to just deal with it. And now we have a new mystery: "Who Shot JR?" Er, that is, who shot the dean?

I can't say I called who the rapist was, but I'm not terribly surprised that it was Mercer. Except for the part where he had alibis. But Moe... wow. I really didn't expect him to have anything to do with it.

As much as I like Logan and Veronica together, I'm glad they broke up. They need to not stay together just for the sake of it. They're taking some time, but they obviously still care for each other. Makes perfect sense to me.

And I cringed during the pull-the-horn-out-of-the-thigh scene. Had to hide a little bit. I'm not that squeamish, but OWWW!!! That looked like it hurt!!


And there you have it. Now I'm off to read everyone else's thoughts!
