Yes overachievers sometimes fail in real life
7 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Upon a re-watch I don't really get the bad reviews, this revival is not perfect but it is not so bad.

The bad: Almost no Sookie, and way too little Jess time.

It didn't make sense that Sookie was not on the wedding, I get it, Melissa M had scheduling conflicts but come on! A bit of effort to make it happen would've made a big difference.

The weird: Rory and Logan. Yes the whole affair was not my cup of tea, I'm not against a casual thing but having Logan engaged and cheating with Rory, and her cheating on that boyfriend everyone kept forgetting, something was off there. The brigade and the wedding magical montages, not sure that was Gilmore Girls. Luke acting a bit ignorant on the surrogate thing. And Zach looking older than Gil.

The OK: Town people as crazy as ever. Kirk being Kirk. I liked Lorelai's epiphany trip. Rory not being the success everyone predicted, I liked that, it is realistic, many overachievers fail at their first or second attempts, and at the end you get the feeling this is it, the book is the door.

The best: Hands down Emily, her whole story was great.
