I've ripped through Gilmore Girls, UnReal, One Tree Hill, Mad Men and Parenthood. I'm attempting to start The West Wing on my days off. The West Wing and Mad Men I had to savor because you gotta pay attention more imo.

[ellaellaeheheh]

I need to do a The West Wing re-watch

[spanishsaharaa]

All the shows I listed were my first time watching them and I had to watch Gilmore Girls and Mad Men twice over because sometimes I wouldn't be paying attention or missed some spots. I feel like I'm gonna need to do that with The West Wing. But I really like it so far.

[ellaellaeheheh]

for the first seasons are some of my favorites ever.

west wing s2 is my favourite

i haven't binged/marathoned a hour long drama series in years since UnReal came around. now i'm stuck waiting for every week for s2 :( it's the worst lmao

Did you like Gilmore Girls? I'd love to go back and watch GG for the first time. I've watched the whole series sooo many times! Now I'm just excited for the revival

[spanishsaharaa]

Yes I enjoyed it! It was also kind of educational for me because I've always been fluent in English as my second language but everyone warned me the dialogue was super fast - but I had no problem with it. I was impressed with myself lol. I could not get over how insufferable both Lorelai and Rory were though. But I still liked them and loved to hate them? But Emily and Richard were by far my favorite characters. But like others, I definitely felt like the final season as bad and took a turn once Luke has his secret daughter.

I like Loreali & Rory too, overall. Although there are definitely moments where I definitely do not like them. I feel like Rory got so much worse seasons 5-7. It's one of my favorite shows, so it's hard to critique it but there were definitely times where I was like UGH.

I agree on season 7 and the daughter thing too. It always annoyed me because I was like THIS WAS NOT HOW IT WAS SUPPOSED TO GO you know? I had always wished that, in the years following, there'd be a movie or something to fix what season 7 did because it was NOT an acceptable end. So when the revival news came, I could not of been more excited!

Are you Team Dean, Jess or Logan? Haha the ultimate question!

[spanishsaharaa]

I weirdly didn't *love* any of them? Part of me loved Jess but some of his traits are awful. Obviously he'd be grown now but idk. And that bit where he tried to have sex with Rory kind of bothered me. I'm not convinced. Dean I absolutely hated and grossed me out. Logan I actually didn't mind but I'm still indifferent. Part of me wouldn't be upset if she ended up alone. It looks like Dean for sure isn't happening though.

[xo_susie]

I agree! Out of the 3, I'd say Jess. But not the early seasons Jess but season 6 Jess, where he grew up and had gotten his shit together. But I'd also be okay if she ended up alone, too.

Thank god it won't be Dean, omg he was awful in later seasons. Logan was meh, there were times where I liked them together and times where I was like NO. But ultimately I'm glad she said no to his proposal in the end.

So it look like it'll be between Jess & Logan in the revival then. Should be interesting to see how it plays out.
