10/10
The Beginning...

I really love the Series Premiere of Gilmore Girls. It gives you all of the information you need, without giving too much of the show away. It doesn't spoil anything, or let you know how the show will play out, which is good, because some Series Premieres do.

I love Gilmore Girls so much and I didn't see it until about 2006, so going back and seeing all of the outdated/retro stuff just fascinated me. I was so intrigued about the storyline, because as far as I know, there aren't any similar shows out there. Not even now, fourteen years later.

Wow, I can't believe this show started fourteen years ago and finished seven years ago. Wow, time flies when something amazing is happening.

In this episode, we meet Lorelei and Rory Gilmore. Mother and daughter. We find out basic facts about their lives, like Lorelie's job and best friend, Rory's school and her best friend. That Rory is very intelligent and will be attending a private school. That Emily and Richard Gilmore are very rich, somewhat rude people. Only because they pretty much blackmail Lorelei into having dinner with them every Friday night. The least they could've done is chosen a different night. Do they not know that Friday night are going out nights. Why not Tuesday or Wednesday? Nobody does anything on a Tuesday or Wednesday night. We meet Luke who owns the diner, and we see that Rory doesn't want to change schools, all because of a new boy she met. Come on, Rory. Don't sacrifice your future just for a little crush.

Overall, I give this episode a 10 out of 10.
