I remember him constantly seeking her out, talk crap about Dean and make Rory doubt her relationship. He got a girlfriend just to make Rory jealous and he went to the 24 H dance just to linger and make Rory notice him.@@happytofu5
i feel like richard's uninvolvement with lorelei's life when she was growing up (compared to emily's intrusiveness) really badly affected lorelai (like in the reboot when she couldn't name her best memory with richard at the funeral/wake). he was so silent on how emily treated lorelai and he just seems to agree because he's traditional and values his wife's word over his daughter's. his silence pretty much tells lorelei that he takes emily's side
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO DISLIKES JESS LIKE MEEEEEE. Sorry for the caps but not really sorry. It needed to be said, Jess was a garbage boyfriend, not only in the basics (not putting any effort into the relationship, taking for granted that Rory was a pushover so he knew she would tolerate his shitty behaviour) but for the party scene where he pressured her in bed, she said NO, clearly, and more than once. In my book, he was done, i always disliked him just as much as i dislike Paris for being so rude and people justifying them as them being "brutally honest", but at the party it was cemented that Jess was trash. Wow he wrote a book? cool, don't care. Wow he told her he loved her? don't care. Got a job and wanted to repay his uncle for every dime spent on supporting his rude ass lazy ass trash teen years? cool, DO NOT CARE.
I love dean, I was lucky to have a similar first boyfriend who was sweet to me and was loved by my family and it is a sweet memory! It also was so hard for me watching Rory just step on dean’s heart over and over again I also hated Jess!!!! Not only was he awful to Rory but he was rude to everyone around him, family/loved ones, acted like a spoiled brat. I wanted someone to put him in his place so badly
Agreed. And I also think Rory was pretty awful too. All the infidelities the Gilmores participate almost without consequence or reflection were unpleasant too.
I also didn't like how in the end all Rory's efforts of going through Chilton and Yale resulted in nothing... but my husband's unpopular opinion😅 is that this outcome is super realistic. As in real life, putting in the work doesn't always result in success and a lot of talented people with good education don't end up with successful or fulfilling careers.
That’s very true!! It is a good point that the ending was realistic for sure!! I think for the viewers it was probably just underwhelming after all those years of watching Rory studying / putting in all that work 😅😫❤️🫶
In the dozen times I've watched the show all the way through I've never really thought about the fact that they never say "I love you" to each other. 😅
Right!! It did always seem to me like the show didn’t emphasise enough of a step up from friends to being in a relationship for them!! I wish they had because I was rooting for them the whole time 😫🫶x
I don't agree with Richard being sweet and unproblematic. There were a few moments where Lorelai told them about her achievements and he ignores it and talks about Christopher and how successful he is. And don't forget his absolutely manipulative and evil way of treating Jason who was his partner. He ruined his whole reputation and Jason lost all his clients. He had to move and start anew only because of Richard. And at that time it did affect Lorelai as well because she was in a relationship with Jason. I think this is pretty problematic. Also the way both Richard and Emely made sure every time that they prefer Rory over Lorelai at all times - it was heartbreaking because Lorelei tried so hard to be accepted by both of them. And they still couldn't show Lorelei their love besides just a few small moments.
Also Richard could be very classist jerk. He thought Logan was so perfect for Rory just because he was from a rich family, and was very rude to Dean just because he felt he was too blue collar to be dating Rory.
Or his gaslighting EVERY time he was called out. After doing anything wrong he'd turn it around on Lorelai or start that woah is me bs and make her feel bad
To me, it felt quite realistic and sadly also relatable how the story with Dean and Jess went. I think it is likely that Rory did not really notice, or maybe tried to suppress her attraction to Jess. I interpret it that she loved Dean, but was more attracted to Jess and had to figure out everything around it. Definetly not meant as an excuse, but on the other hand she was a teenager, figuring out her first relationship. She was an asshole, but which teenager isn't.
I disagree about Richard. He was really not very present beyond the financial in Lorelei’s life. He allowed his mother to insult his wife. And his initial positive reaction to Rory was because she expressed an interest in books. It’s also implied that he looked down on Emily as he didn’t want Rory engaging in the same life and activities Emily had when she stayed with them. His concern wasn’t that he didn’t think Rory didn’t really want to do it, but that he viewed what Emily was doing as frivolous.
First thing I heard was "I like Dean" so I'mma click out of that video because I can't handle that kind of wrong opinion but I'm still leaving a comment so you can get that engagement !
Mrs Kim DID NOT ALLOW anything to Lane. In fact she threw her out. Lane was an adult and made her choices. Band, living with the guys, getting married, having a great wedding. She lost all the power and at that point she had two choices: never have contact with her only daughter or accept who she is and have a relationship with her. Yes Lane wanted her approval which explains her nail biting over the wedding dress, over her pregnancy etc. but at the end of the day she no longer needed her to allow her to do anything.
The only thing dean and Rory had in common was that they thought they were cute. Not a relationship built on anything that can withstand storms, as we can see.
I think Richard’s absence in Lorelei’s life contributed greatly to her flakiness with men, and that then had a ripple effect on Rory’s relationships with men. But other than that, I completely agree with you. Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino made it clear from the beginning that she wanted to show how Rory was destined to repeat Lorelei’s mistakes, so she constantly forced Rory to act out of character to ensure she turned into Lorelei 2.0, and I hated that. Even if Rory did fail to launch in the end, her coming home and working for the Stars Hollow paper should’ve been portrayed as a positive, like she realized all along that home is where the heart is and that her big time aspirations were never necessary because she’s where she was always meant to be. It didn’t have to be so bitter, but the revival was a mess so I’m not counting it as canon anyway
I completely agree!! Rory working in stars hollow didn’t need to be seen as a bad thing at all and she constantly had this pressure that basically made her feel like she constantly had to be doing MORE!!😫🫶x
im soso glad that i am not the only onw that thinks that rory and jess had like no chemistry and that they should've just been friends. tbh i don't think that jess ever respected rory until like towards the end of the show
If I had to pick between the two it would be Dean. He was Rory’s first boyfriend, and that’s why we was clingy. Yes Dean did annoyed me, but not as much as Jess did. Dean built her a car, and I liked that about Dean. Jess knew what he was doing by taking the car trying to piss off Dean, so the car got wreaked. That made me so mad.
I actually did not like Dean or Jess. Dean too clingy and Jess standoffish, and picked fights. I actually felt Logan was a better boyfriend. He had his faults though, but learned from them.
About the revival: I don't why NOBODY gets that Rory doesn't fácil professionally. When the revival ends, he's about to publish "Gilmore Girls", that is so obvious is about to be the break through of her carreer, Just as the series was the break through of Amy Palladino's carreer. And the fact that the idea for the book came from Jess, Rory's intelectual soul mate was só sweet. I don't understand why peoplo don't seem to notice that. She's not a failure, she's about to become a successful writer. It's so obvious te me that that was Any intended with the hole "gilmore girls" book idea. And the last line: mom, i'm pregnant. Narrativa rhyme. Genious.
I absolutely hated the whole vasectomy storyline. Jackson not telling Sookie he hasn't had it and getting her pregnant was awful, but no one talks about how Sookie arranged for him to have surgery on HIS body and basically forced him into it. I found both instances to be very disrespectful. Instead, if they had developed that storyline with Sookie and Jackson communicating about it like normal adults, it could've been a nice and interesting starting point for the viewers to address those topics. I agree on abortion not even being mentioned as an option, but I guess it was still a big taboo when the show came out
Im one of those girls that loved Jess but only liked Dean. Jess, imo, had some of the best character development. At first, Rory was too good for Jess, but by the end of the show, Jess was too good for Rory. I think they had amazing chemistry (they were together irl during the show) thats why I loved them together bc it felt real. I really think they are soul mates but met at the wrong time. It would be different if they met as adults. Rory should have said yes to Logan. As for Dean, I hated him when he treated Lindsey really bad about her finding his phone it was so toxic and mean. Justice for Lindsey.
Ok here it is: I really liked dean at first and I preferred him to Jess at first - but after the whole Lindsay thing I felt like I couldn’t really be team dean anymore - I dislike Jess though and I don’t like Logan either. When it comes to Rory’s opinions though I think that she and Jess probably had the best chemistry ( even though Jess is an ick ) I probably aged about 20 years before Lorelai and Luke got together 😂 Logan is annoying though - mainly because even though Rory’s downfall is totally her fault but I’m just saying it all started with him and their relationship. When I watch the early seasons back I’m like - I was too harsh on Rory she’s actually not that bad - but then I watch the later seasons I’m like oh yeah that’s why. Also sookie is the best character xx
My biggest problem with Dean was him getting angry about Harvard, I don't think they had enough in common. Jess and Rory were better before they started dating it was right person wrong time, in the beginning Rory was too good for Jess, in the end Jess was too good for Rory. But Jess reminded Rory of what was most important in her life.
I agree with a lot of these points! I disagree about Richard not being so bad. In my opinion he's almost worse than Emily, he's so calculated. I didn't particularly like digger, but the way he turned on and sabotaged diggers entire career was the point that I could not forgive him, and I don't think lorelai should have either. It was weird the way she took Richard's side when what he did was so awful. Like he didn't just betray him in one deal or something, he literally ruined his reputation and attempted to ruin his entire career. It was vile. I have such a love hate relationship with the revival. I absolutely love Emily's character development, but she's literally the only one that develops at all(maybe jess?). I also think people don't discuss how much they ruined Logans character. He had some of the best development of any character throughout the main series, and then they just like, took it all back and had him in an unhappy engagement, cheating on his fiance, and working for his father? They literally like disregarded every single thing he learned and grew from in the main series?? Logan and rory had such great chemistry and balanced each other so well. I will die on that hill. I grew to like Jess more as the series went on, I hated him at first, but I also don't think it was fair that you hardly got to see his development at all since going to California, or new york, or philly. Like come on he can't just leave and then come back a few seasons later like he's all better now he's a good guy. I wanted to see them give him the same development we got to see from Logan. My final point is that they made both rory and lorelai like, so much meaner in the revival and it was just really off putting to me. Like I get that their bitter or whatever, and had the capacity to be judgemental in the original show, but it was so blatant and frankly cringe and unnecessary. I get that they're flawed characters but why would you want to make your main characters so outwardly awful and unlikable? It was such a weird choice. I could keep going but this is already way too long so I'll stop here lol
Completely agree with everything you’ve said!! So true about the viewers not getting to see any of Jess’ character development!! And I loved Rory & Logan together so hated their ending 😫 their breakup in the last season was so quick? It was like well if you don’t want to marry me then we’re over, so unrealistic !! Xx🫶
@sophiaizzy Ya I get you. I actually felt they had strong physical chemistry but neither one of them truly loved the other character. To me it was more they wanted what the other person had. Rory had money, prestige, love and admiration, her future was bright and stable. While Jess had defiance against societal pressures, he was an adventurer he would just go and do whatever he felt like and he probably wanted a brighter future and more stability like rori. Also to be respected. I think also while Luke may have provided some of that, I think sometimes in jess's mind is was just another adult forced to take care of him who didn't really want him and who he would ultimately fail.
I’m currently on my umpteenth rewatch and WOOF the older I get the more i recognize comments made by characters on the show that don’t sit right w me. Ugh. It’d be one thing if they were all just a sign of the times, but then , for example, the fat shaming continued in that god awful Netflix revival 😩 I’m on season 6 rn and an just oof the later seasons deffo dont hit quite like the early ones but i continue watching nonetheless. Love how we can all be critical of this show yet love it so deeply at the same time. Duality baby seeing grays!
"zach isn't perfect but who is" Dave was perfect :( honestly I wouldn't have much of a problem with zach it's just really difficult not to compare him to Dave when Lane and Dave were so perfect for each other
I disagree I love Jess or Logan I think you’re wrong either one of them is good match I don’t think dean is good boyfriend he constantly yells her he always make her doubt her self into the relationship he always jealous starts fighting’s and makes her go crazy over losing her bracelet he breaks up with her because she not ready for I love you I really don’t like I think Jess or Lagan have lot more in common with Rory or dean he cheater’s on his wife with her he can disagree but i don’t like dean at all
I’ve just posted a RATING THE GILMORE CHARACTERS FROM WORST TO BEST VIDEO, be sure to check that out too if you enjoyed this video🥰🫶
I didn't understand why Jess worked so hard to get Rory, only for him to not give any effort once he got her.
RIGHT?? Probably just liked the chase I guess
Did he work hard though? I felt like he liked / sought her attention but then could not handle the responsibility to having a relationship.
I remember him constantly seeking her out, talk crap about Dean and make Rory doubt her relationship. He got a girlfriend just to make Rory jealous and he went to the 24 H dance just to linger and make Rory notice him.@@happytofu5
@@happytofu5 He put the most effort into annoying Dean.
He viewed her as “the prize”. That what I think anyway.

He takes her side (mostly) when he's not silent too.
I always viewed Richard was an enabler of Emily's manipulation and narsessistic abuse and an overall emotional absent father

I disagree I love Jess or Logan I think you’re wrong either one of them is good match I don’t think dean is good boyfriend he constantly yells her he always make her doubt her self into the relationship he always jealous starts fighting’s and makes her go crazy over losing her bracelet he breaks up with her because she not ready for I love you I really don’t like I think Jess or Lagan have lot more in common with Rory or dean he cheater’s on his wife with her he can disagree but i don’t like dean at all
21:22 Who did or didn't cheat on who??? You just use pronouns here and I do not know who you're talking about.
I was always team Dean. Jess sucked
Facts!!🫶 Jess really didn’t treat Rory well at all!!

I HATE Richard most of all characters! What he did to Jason was VILE.
Dean was NOT a good boyfriend. He was OBSESSED. He called her 20 times in a day… he washed her car while waiting for her… he’s toxic.
I've never met someone I've disagreed with more
