It felt like Logan's dad told Rory about Odette because he wanted to make sure she knew that he was engaged and to not try to start something with Logan again
I don't know why people say Rory's attitude was off point on the revival, she was always entitled and spoiled. Mitchum was an ass but he was partially right about her. In the end, Rory gave up easily and she ran away when things got difficult, which meant she was absolutely crushed when she got to the real world. When you compare her to someone like Paris, you see how immature much she is. Paris got depressed after not getting into Harvard, but then she picked herself up and continued her hard work. Same when she lost the Yale Daily News, she even came back to work for Rory. Paris would've never allowed something like Mitchum's criticism to get in her way, unlike Rory who was practically branded by it for the rest of her life. That's the main reason why Paris is successful on the revival, while Rory is aimless and struggling.
David Caballero completely agree. everything was handed to rory and she always had the high praise to fuel her. paris was always the hardworking underdog and in the real world that’s what truly matters
In the end Rory is responsible of her own actions. But Lorelai, Richard and Emily could still look themselves in the mirror and ask if she could've ended up differently if they weren't behaving like Rory is God's gift to humanity ?
Agree with Rory's story trajectory.... but the acting was off, Rory usually got away with her flaws for me because Alexis played her in such an endearing way. It felt as if she forgot who Rory was in the revival. Like... I get everyone disliking Rory, everyone has flaws though, Lorelai always felt too stubborn and judgemental for my liking. I think it damaged her relationship with her parents beyond how they treated her. She expected far too much or Rory and of everyone around her. Rory had her own set of flaws, but I didn't find them any more infuriating than those of other characters personally. What bothered me was her portrayal in the revival felt unlike Rory.
I think when we originally watched the series many of us were also young and entitled but it was not as obvious. Now it is hard to watch any part of the series and not see it. Even from the beginning her actions showed she was spoiled, but so was her mother. I mean when Lorelei married Christopher she made no moves to have his daughter GG move in, even though Rory was grown adult by that time. She was so selfish and never considered what others needed or wanted.
I think it’s very ironic that Logan is enganged to a girl that lives in another country but didn’t want to do long distance with Rory when she wasn’t ready to settle down in San Francisco after graduation.
But it was a different Logan who wanted to move to San Francisco with Rory- that was the Logan whom ASP didn't write, the Logan who grew up, got a job outside of his father's influence, and learned how to deal with his mistakes. Definitely not the ASP version of Logan.
@@MissLibertY88 That's the dumbest thing I've heard. If he really loved her he wouldn't cheat on her nor rush her into marriage rather would have worked things out together. Also he literally is still a cheating scumbag after all these years? Cheating on his poor fiance, why can't he just not marry her if he doesn't love her? ffs he isn't a kid being forced for anything
That man is George Clooney 2.0 - he older he gets, he just gets hotter. I love his looks in The Resident the most I think, but omg he never disappoints :D
Everyone seems to be forgetting that Rory had an affair with Dean when he was married before she met Logan in season 5. Also lets go back further. Season 2 Jess comes along while Rory is with Dean. She gets a crush on Jess while saying she loves Dean. She kisses Jess while at Sookie's wedding and Dean is her date. Dean breaks it off becuz he knows Rory wants Jess. Then Dean gets married and and sleeps with Rory. The divorce is not finalized but they were still together until he breaks it off again becuz he sees her with Logan and his pals at a party. She was already pulling away from Dean before that point. She not only crapped on Dean twice she had a hand in breaking up his marriage. Her affair with Logan is not her first infidelity rodeo. Rory fans and a lot of the characters in the show just put her on a pedestal.
Thank you! It's like they just white wash all of Rory's flaws. I don't get how Loerlai was sort of ok with Rory having an affair with Logan, but not ok with her being friends with Jess. I still don't get all the hate with Jess. Jess was the one who gave Rory the much needed wake up call to go back to Yale. Plus he was the one to give her the idea to write to book to give herself a purpose in life again. What's wrong with that? Granted it wasn't a subject Loerlai was thrilled about, but her daughter was trying to get her life on track again. I apologize for my rant, but I just so tired of everyone hating Jess and treating Rory like an angel.
Kerrie Thompson Exactly! Even in the revival Lorelai isn't happy with Rory talking to Jess when in reality it was Jess that got her to go back to Yale and inspired her to write a book. Who knows where Rory would've been without him.
The revival was so disappointing. They made her seem like she was going nowhere with kind of an uptight personality. Gave her a bit of an attitude, made her a cheater, and the “other woman”. The original made her seem so driven and going somewhere ...with morals. And Lorelei has had a lot of Botox/work to her face. Just not what I was expecting.
Hmm Rory always had a bit of an attitude, and she was the "other woman" in the original run, too. Remember when she was sleeping with a very married Dean? Her morals were always kind of wishy-washy to me.
Agree and disagree there lives were all changing in some ways remember Lorelie much older but still had to be the same as she was it would of been hard for them I loved it Rory was great
No he wasn't. She did have the "it" back in the day when she was editing the Yale Daily News and the writers seemed to care about natural character development. Mitchum said (to Richard I believe) that if Rory had what it takes she'd get back on her feet which she did, at the Yale Daily News. In this major BS revival they just needed some problems around her. But since Lorelai was always the "problematic adult" (the one who is in her 30's and acts like a teenager) and Rory graduated in a fairly straight line from being a teenager to being a responsible person (like most people do by the way (even Logan managed to do that for Pete's sake!)) they had a problem because the entire series is based on at least one of the Gilmore Girls acting unusually. Now Lorelai is fairly settled, so what do they do? They throw Rory's character development under the bus. This is so disappointing. But it's out there so unfortunately it can't just be ignored.
@Hannes Moneses... Is this really bullshit though? I seem to be the only one that actually appreciates that Rory doesn't have a job and that she struggles because it's real. Youth unemployment or generational unemployment is very very real. Plus, I identify with Rory a lot. I am the kind of girl that always loved studying and got good grades. Moreover, I graduated in Publishing which is very close field to journalism. Unfortunately, it's pretty difficult to get jobs in this area. The revival is not great, I agree with you, but I appreciate that she is jobless because that's what a lot of us have to face.
Not true! She worked hard all her life to be successful. And she was from good stock on both sides. Gilmore's were VERY successful. She was more like Richard with a hint of fun. They totally missed a better story ending here. Spoofed the entire cast actually. What a disappointment. Writers cheated their audience in my opinion. I had hoped for so much better.
I’m rewatching the whole show right now. Remember what Paris said about Valedictorians eventually failing at life? Yeah... I guess Rory’s shit behavior towards everything was foreshadowed and no one really realized...
Oh it is foreshadowed all over the place but people did realize it. More to the point her shit behavior starts way before the revival it just has the cutesy told from Rory's perspective lens everything else has before the revival. It is all very intentional.
Unlike Rory. I can't really pin it down but she aged a lot somehow and looks weirdly stiff and plasticky. Botox maybe? Not sure, she shouldn't really need it yet. And not as bad as Lorelai I guess. Still, Logan aged a lot better than her.
Check out the Rory & Logan (147) now THAT is a sight! How did Rory ever say no to that man? For a "smart" girl she's always been dumber than a bag of rocks!
Rory changed after high school and not for the best. As a fan of the sweet, decent, well mannered, self respecting Rory, I found her change in character and lifestyle choices very disappointing.
She needed to take Mitchum's offer as an olive branch, even if it wasn't. She is never taking the opportunity to turn her relationship around with him. She could still impress him but she is entitled and spoiled.
Lets just say that in the revival Rory and Logan are married and Logan gets Rory pregnant and they have the cutest kid with blue eyes and blonde hair and then they live happily ever after!!! (Why can't this be true!!!????!!!)
Taitlyn Corbin everything would’ve been good if she had married Logan whit the advocado tree in the garden and if she would have taken the job at the paper in providence😢
I love Mitchum. Logan’s behaviors are in part a consequence of his father’s, just like Rory’s are a consequence of her mother’s, but here Mitchum is being kind. He knows Logan is cheating on his fiance. He is not going to be pot calling the kettle black as that is not the issue. He is politely reminding his son not to bring side pieces to polite society/family functions and or holdings. And he is very gently reminding Rory that she is not Logan’s wife, so she doesn’t have the benefit of going out to public and pretending that it’s a sanctioned relationship. This is one of the key moments that will help her abandon Peter Pan and the Lost Boys and move toward an actual adulthood where, unfortunately, she will be raising Logan’s illegitimate heir.
It felt like the writers were forcing at any cost that ending envisaged long time ago, so some parts of the character's storylines did not make much sense, mostly Rory's. I find that to be the biggest disappointment in the revival. It's like they pretended that last season of the series did not exist. But I do think all the comments about Rory being a huge failure are an exaggeration. I also don't like the storyline between her and Logan but career wise lot of it makes sense and it is not disastrous as some people see it. The writers chose to portray one year in their lives, and that was a time when she was, as other characters, e.g. Jess pointed out, in a rut. We all go through bad phases in our lives, and I would even suggest that Rory had a classic burnout, probably a mild depression. But that does not make her a failure. Paris, who had more than one meltdown throughout the series, and in the revival goes through a divorce and does not seem a particularly affectionate mother is unfairly defined as "someone who unlike Rory succeeded in life". I think there is no straight line in anyone's life and just because she was very successful during high school and college does not automatically mean that she won't have some crisis in her life. She had one in the series as well and she bounced back. We all have ups and downs, which is what they were probably aiming to show in the revival. It's not like Rory is at the end of her life, who knows what she can make of herself, even with a child, in 20, 30 years. It seemed to me she is on a crossroad in life. Again, perhaps it would make more sense if this change from journalism to writer's career happened in the series when she was younger, but not necessarily.
am I the only one who remembers when Rory couldn't do the whole open relationship but now she is with her ex whom is engaged with a "boyfriend" she always forgets
Ive just started watching from season 1 again, and Its so disappointing how Rory turns out and how lorelai ends up. Neither has that perfect ending. It feels still like there's loose ends. It would have been nice to see Rory prove logans family wrong, to do amazing and show that lorelai did an amazing job raising her alone. It would have been nice for lorelai to be the successful businesswoman with a chain of inns and married to luke already, this show just deserved a perfect ending and it didn't feel like we got that
Her reactions to Mitchum always seemed so over the top to me. It was like he did something awful to her, harassed her or something instead of giving her a bad review.
while rory wasn't necessarily acting out of character, the revival was a bummer overall and took away from her character growth at the end of the series
She's tall for a woman, a lot of tall women hunch because they feel like they're supposed to be smaller. That being said, her posture horrifies me on an existential level.
It broke my heart when she didn't marry Logan. They were meant to endgame. I hope in season 2 of "a year in the life" Logan divorces Odette & marries Rory & they have a kid. That's all u really want for them
Heck no. Rory was meant to be endgame with someone who wasn't a married man who wanted to control her, the edgy bad boy with daddy issues, or the privileged, engaged bad boy who has a, "My daddy is a lawyer" mindset.
Logan isn't going to divorce Odette..family reputation and everything..he will probably continue having an affair behind his wife's back and maybe Odette will too..
Even though we see Rory wandering aimlessly I do enjoy watching a character struggling with her career. Especially when one of her goals is being a writer and sometimes your character and kind of writer doesn’t fit with established organizations you dream to work for. This is just one year, my hope is she finds a way after this year where she blossoms in being a writer like she’s meant to be.
The most annoying thing about this is that she let him order a $300 bottle of wine without knowing it was owned by his family. We know who Rory is and she's gonna keep digging
If only she grabbed the chances when she had them. Even in the revival she had her chances. Mitchem is all about respect to Rory, and how he still knew they would be in touch, and how he still would've helped her even after all these years. This man doesn't get the credit he deserves. He looks up to Rory, he is honest with her, even when it's him being harsh but truthfull. He offered her chances he wouldn't have offered some other "bum". Because like he said in the series: he would've fired them if it were 'just' an employee. So whoever he gave this chance to, he saw potential. He saw talent. Otherwise he would've fired them. The world Rory tried to belong to, the world her grandparents belonged to, was all about lying, drama, taking advantage off, and so on. Rory was never ready for that. Because she was raised by her mother. Who tried to be truthfull. Which was a 180 degrees from Yale, her grandparents and Logan. She couldn't deal with that. Like so many people irl that can't deal with that. You follow your heart, or your mind. Or both? Which way to go? This revival was nothing more than reality. Something we all recognize. And everyone else complaining about that can't or don't want to handle reality. Sorry but it is the way it is.
The revival was disappointing bc rory had no reason to struggle she’s got elite family and an ivy league education, like tf???? They just made her look bad. Shes not like the average kid out of college...Also they made her the other woman. Ya i dont claim the revival rory
@@eiffelviolet when she was a child. She moved on from that not to mention Logan would never marry someone he couldn’t be faithful too. They wrote him completely out of character just to ruin Rory’s character.
Agreed! I'm finally watched it and it's worse than I thought! One dimensional characters, too many plot holes to count, and don't get me started on that God awful musical. The only character that changed for the better was Emily. She was the best!
by watching gilmore girls only by these parts about their relationship, It's honestly like they had the best prosethetic makeup ever and they all grew up in a second XD I can and can't believe that it's been like 13 years
Again Rory failed Mitchums test, the season 5, he offered her an internship but she turned it down in which he then told her about making the most of the opportunities that are presented to her. Again he offers her to assist and she declines. 😢
I don't get why people think that writer ruined Rory's character. This is exactly the life that Rory wanted since the start of the series. She may not have wanted to live on other people's couches but she wanted to be a journalist and travel the world. Live in different countries. Also, she was the other woman lond before Logan or Odette were in the picture. I am not a fan of the revival but writers conveyed exactly what they wanted to convey. Rory had lost her roots while following her life long dreams and the kid would help her build them back up
Because its entirely unrealistic. Rory has NEVER been lazy when it comes to work ethic and she prepares for everything. Not to mention that literally everyone in her life is successful. There is no way in hell that she would be in the position that she is in the day in the life. She has too many connections. Richard would have bought her an apartment or something. Rory never wanted to be the other woman again. And grew completely from that and Logan was NEVER a cheater. He would never get engaged to someone if he didn’t believe he could be a faithful husband. The whole everything surrounding Rorys plot line was entirely out of wack
Lol looking back on this, I love Mitchum mentioning how people like to stick a shiv in his back when the actor would soon star as a Trumpian version of Julius Caesar in Shakespeare in the Park.
I kind of felt like Logan was too good for Rory.. Actually, all her ex's were too good for her.. Logan has his " ish" together for the most part.. he was strong and confident in who he was.. Logan has some setbacks but he picked himself back up.. Rory was weak ( like Christopher) and she would have been a drain on the Huntzberger family BUT I still feel like even though she was a bit weak, she and Logan did fit together well. Like I said they reminded me of a young Emily and Richard.
@@mariokokkinos2539 LOL, Logan was successful and focused. BTW didnt Rory cheat with an engaged man.. Also Rory is a repeat offender or did you forget she slept with Dean when he was married as well? Rory has no morals.
@@prettynerd4779 Rory was no prize either. Btw Logan was working for his father in the revival so it's not as if he made it on his own. In the end they both deserve each other as they are both cheating lying aholes
I feel like this revival is pointing out how much Rory and Logan are endgame. It shows how Rory helped Logan get independent from his family and how Logan helped her being her best self, which they drift away from when they split. Without one another, they are lost. It also shows that they can't get away from each other even-though it implies to cheat on their partners.If they had faced the truth about their feelings this would never have happened. And please the diner at a family restaurant is for sure a sign Logan wants his relationship with Rory to be seen by others (especially his family). I'm sure if she had asked him not to marry Odette he will have once again turned his back on his family and married her straight away !!!
Mitchum: “He’s engage to a lady living in another country, smart lady”. Mitchum throwing shades.😭😭😭 I could feel the sarcasm here, because this is exactly what Rory could have done if she was smarter, because Logan was so flexible and open minded.
Sleeping with Logan knowing he is engaged suggests Rory never learned from her past mistakes. It is almost like she is trying to get Logan to propose again, i.e., accept what she rejected on graduation day.
When I rewatch this scene now, it looks to me that Mitchum is not behaving like a jerk trying to show Lory her place, he actually genuinely wants to warn her, that Logan will never be exclusive for her and he genuinely offers her help, because he does want her to move on an succeed and not get stuck with dead-end relationship with his son...
I don't get why Rory didn't just say yes when Logan asked her to get married. She could given engagement a chance. Still pursue her career. Clearly after all these years she stayed stuck on Logan. Paul didn't seem like her type at all. They were better off having her come back and together with Marty.
Now season 2 might be coming. I'm against it. I feel like writing a letter to Amy Sherman Palladino telling her why I hate the revival. Rory was so damaged by the revival that even if she redeems herself in season 2 I still won't be able to get over the damage that was already done. I think Amy should know the reason we're so upset.
@@kiranolan7104 well if she really is going to do another season of the revival I hope she fixes this mess otherwise I hope she doesn't bother to do anything.
Please no one let her near the show again. She already tried to destroy it with a day in the life. She clearly doesn’t love the characters or anyone who loved the show anymore.
That's why she always failed in real world. If u r not powerful as Huntzbergers, no matter Gilmore implies, u have to take every chance and be wild to survive. She still thinks she's special that's why she couldnt survive in wild journalism ecosystem
I’m okay with Rory’s trouble with men, her father never was there for her. That trouble finds some when they are younger and in their 30s for others. There’s no time table on emotional scars
Their wordplay was always so good. They should have ended up together. Everyone compares him to Christooher (no way) but I think he's more like Lorelai.
rory deserved so much better, she could've been such a great role model or something, its just so disappointing to see her go back to her college boyfriend and be his misstress while also cheating on that other guy
I guess logans dad was right....she wasn't cut out for journalism. Rory didn't know how to take constructive criticism...she never asked logans dad to hekp her get better at this, she never admitted to lorelai that she loved logan and wanted to path a life with him. Instead she tried to be the women lorelai wanted, failed at it and by the time Lorelei realised her daughter was in trouble it was to late.

I didn’t think he could’ve gotten any better looking from S5
Check out the Rory & Logan (147) now THAT is a sight! How did Rory ever say no to that man? For a "smart" girl she's always been dumber than a bag of rocks!
He looks younger than Rory
`He`s engaged to a girl who lives in another country. Smart girl.` Ouch.
How is that ouch? He never implied Rory wasn't smart.
@@jclyntoledoGiving the context, it's a huge ouch 🤷🏻♀️
Rory's voice has changed a lot. I think Alexis' acting has improved too. Too bad they ruined Rory's character
Ik I like old rory
Rory changed after high school and not for the best. As a fan of the sweet, decent, well mannered, self respecting Rory, I found her change in character and lifestyle choices very disappointing.
Well people usa their innocence and naivity when they get older and they get more of bad traits. That's life.
She needed to take Mitchum's offer as an olive branch, even if it wasn't. She is never taking the opportunity to turn her relationship around with him. She could still impress him but she is entitled and spoiled.
no she don't need to do that.
Lets just say that in the revival Rory and Logan are married and Logan gets Rory pregnant and they have the cutest kid with blue eyes and blonde hair and then they live happily ever after!!! (Why can't this be true!!!????!!!)
I'm so thinking that 😂😂
Don't forget the avocado trees 😢
Taitlyn Corbin everything would’ve been good if she had married Logan whit the advocado tree in the garden and if she would have taken the job at the paper in providence😢
why blue eyes and blonde hair🤦🏽♀️
@@gymnast8133 bcs she has blue eyes and he has blonde hair ????
I love Mitchum. Logan’s behaviors are in part a consequence of his father’s, just like Rory’s are a consequence of her mother’s, but here Mitchum is being kind. He knows Logan is cheating on his fiance. He is not going to be pot calling the kettle black as that is not the issue. He is politely reminding his son not to bring side pieces to polite society/family functions and or holdings. And he is very gently reminding Rory that she is not Logan’s wife, so she doesn’t have the benefit of going out to public and pretending that it’s a sanctioned relationship. This is one of the key moments that will help her abandon Peter Pan and the Lost Boys and move toward an actual adulthood where, unfortunately, she will be raising Logan’s illegitimate heir.
great observation! this scene has a lot of subtleties, you are absolutely right, Mitchum knows his world is not about morals, but about perception
It felt like the writers were forcing at any cost that ending envisaged long time ago, so some parts of the character's storylines did not make much sense, mostly Rory's. I find that to be the biggest disappointment in the revival. It's like they pretended that last season of the series did not exist. But I do think all the comments about Rory being a huge failure are an exaggeration. I also don't like the storyline between her and Logan but career wise lot of it makes sense and it is not disastrous as some people see it. The writers chose to portray one year in their lives, and that was a time when she was, as other characters, e.g. Jess pointed out, in a rut. We all go through bad phases in our lives, and I would even suggest that Rory had a classic burnout, probably a mild depression. But that does not make her a failure. Paris, who had more than one meltdown throughout the series, and in the revival goes through a divorce and does not seem a particularly affectionate mother is unfairly defined as "someone who unlike Rory succeeded in life". I think there is no straight line in anyone's life and just because she was very successful during high school and college does not automatically mean that she won't have some crisis in her life. She had one in the series as well and she bounced back. We all have ups and downs, which is what they were probably aiming to show in the revival. It's not like Rory is at the end of her life, who knows what she can make of herself, even with a child, in 20, 30 years. It seemed to me she is on a crossroad in life. Again, perhaps it would make more sense if this change from journalism to writer's career happened in the series when she was younger, but not necessarily.
I think Mitchum’s final look indicates he figured out they were having an affair the minute he saw them together
am I the only one who remembers when Rory couldn't do the whole open relationship but now she is with her ex whom is engaged with a "boyfriend" she always forgets
Ive just started watching from season 1 again, and Its so disappointing how Rory turns out and how lorelai ends up. Neither has that perfect ending. It feels still like there's loose ends. It would have been nice to see Rory prove logans family wrong, to do amazing and show that lorelai did an amazing job raising her alone. It would have been nice for lorelai to be the successful businesswoman with a chain of inns and married to luke already, this show just deserved a perfect ending and it didn't feel like we got that
Her reactions to Mitchum always seemed so over the top to me. It was like he did something awful to her, harassed her or something instead of giving her a bad review.
Wow I did not realize how differently Rory speaks in the revival until now
while rory wasn't necessarily acting out of character, the revival was a bummer overall and took away from her character growth at the end of the series
👏🏿👏🏾👏🏽👏🏼👏🏻👏
Rory is so bad at lying. How does she forget about "Didi" every single time Lorelai asks her about her.
Rory is very hunched
She always has been
She's tall for a woman, a lot of tall women hunch because they feel like they're supposed to be smaller. That being said, her posture horrifies me on an existential level.
She’s insecure
@@augustharper15 All women are that way
It broke my heart when she didn't marry Logan. They were meant to endgame. I hope in season 2 of "a year in the life" Logan divorces Odette & marries Rory & they have a kid. That's all u really want for them
Amen
Heck no. Rory was meant to be endgame with someone who wasn't a married man who wanted to control her, the edgy bad boy with daddy issues, or the privileged, engaged bad boy who has a, "My daddy is a lawyer" mindset.
I hope so.
@@acutebunny3006 no. Rory wasnt better than any of them by a large margin so shes playing within her field so to say
Logan isn't going to divorce Odette..family reputation and everything..he will probably continue having an affair behind his wife's back and maybe Odette will too..
Even though we see Rory wandering aimlessly I do enjoy watching a character struggling with her career. Especially when one of her goals is being a writer and sometimes your character and kind of writer doesn’t fit with established organizations you dream to work for. This is just one year, my hope is she finds a way after this year where she blossoms in being a writer like she’s meant to be.
Logan sleeping in the back

Ya wow cheaters are so adorable
@@sandye3667 im dying- 😂😂😂
@@via1096 so cute♥️✨☺️
The most annoying thing about this is that she let him order a $300 bottle of wine without knowing it was owned by his family. We know who Rory is and she's gonna keep digging
Sorry someone isn’t willing to spend $300 of wine on you 😂
oh thats so annoying 🙄
If only she grabbed the chances when she had them. Even in the revival she had her chances.
Mitchem is all about respect to Rory, and how he still knew they would be in touch, and how he still would've helped her even after all these years. This man doesn't get the credit he deserves.
He looks up to Rory, he is honest with her, even when it's him being harsh but truthfull. He offered her chances he wouldn't have offered some other "bum". Because like he said in the series: he would've fired them if it were 'just' an employee.
So whoever he gave this chance to, he saw potential. He saw talent. Otherwise he would've fired them.
The world Rory tried to belong to, the world her grandparents belonged to, was all about lying, drama, taking advantage off, and so on.
Rory was never ready for that. Because she was raised by her mother. Who tried to be truthfull. Which was a 180 degrees from Yale, her grandparents and Logan. She couldn't deal with that. Like so many people irl that can't deal with that. You follow your heart, or your mind. Or both? Which way to go?
This revival was nothing more than reality. Something we all recognize. And everyone else complaining about that can't or don't want to handle reality. Sorry but it is the way it is.
The revival was disappointing bc rory had no reason to struggle she’s got elite family and an ivy league education, like tf???? They just made her look bad. Shes not like the average kid out of college...Also they made her the other woman. Ya i dont claim the revival rory
who knowsss well... she made bad choices and is weak
She got an expensive useless degree .
no reason to struggle really?.
She was the other woman in season four also.
@@eiffelviolet when she was a child. She moved on from that not to mention Logan would never marry someone he couldn’t be faithful too. They wrote him completely out of character just to ruin Rory’s character.
God please let there be a sequel to this🙏🏼
Worst “revival” in history
Agreed! I'm finally watched it and it's worse than I thought! One dimensional characters, too many plot holes to count, and don't get me started on that God awful musical. The only character that changed for the better was Emily. She was the best!
by watching gilmore girls only by these parts about their relationship, It's honestly like they had the best prosethetic makeup ever and they all grew up in a second XD I can and can't believe that it's been like 13 years
like in real life, storys never end like they should
so true. I don't think the fans know about real life yet.
Again Rory failed Mitchums test, the season 5, he offered her an internship but she turned it down in which he then told her about making the most of the opportunities that are presented to her. Again he offers her to assist and she declines. 😢
I don't get why people think that writer ruined Rory's character. This is exactly the life that Rory wanted since the start of the series. She may not have wanted to live on other people's couches but she wanted to be a journalist and travel the world. Live in different countries. Also, she was the other woman lond before Logan or Odette were in the picture. I am not a fan of the revival but writers conveyed exactly what they wanted to convey. Rory had lost her roots while following her life long dreams and the kid would help her build them back up
True
Because its entirely unrealistic. Rory has NEVER been lazy when it comes to work ethic and she prepares for everything. Not to mention that literally everyone in her life is successful. There is no way in hell that she would be in the position that she is in the day in the life. She has too many connections. Richard would have bought her an apartment or something. Rory never wanted to be the other woman again. And grew completely from that and Logan was NEVER a cheater. He would never get engaged to someone if he didn’t believe he could be a faithful husband. The whole everything surrounding Rorys plot line was entirely out of wack
Logan couldn't even pay for their date 😂
Lol looking back on this, I love Mitchum mentioning how people like to stick a shiv in his back when the actor would soon star as a Trumpian version of Julius Caesar in Shakespeare in the Park.
So she left her because another state was too far and they HAD to get married but he got engaged to someone who lives in another nation, cooool
the distance between London and Paris is not as far as CT and CA
In the end she ended up being a reflection of her mother. I had high hopes for these last episodes....oh well, onto the next series
That was ASP's vision all along.
I kind of felt like Logan was too good for Rory.. Actually, all her ex's were too good for her.. Logan has his " ish" together for the most part.. he was strong and confident in who he was.. Logan has some setbacks but he picked himself back up.. Rory was weak ( like Christopher) and she would have been a drain on the Huntzberger family BUT I still feel like even though she was a bit weak, she and Logan did fit together well. Like I said they reminded me of a young Emily and Richard.
Logan has his shit together? Yes, that's why he's cheating on his feyonce witu Rory
@@mariokokkinos2539 LOL, Logan was successful and focused. BTW didnt Rory cheat with an engaged man.. Also Rory is a repeat offender or did you forget she slept with Dean when he was married as well? Rory has no morals.
@@prettynerd4779 Rory was no prize either. Btw Logan was working for his father in the revival so it's not as if he made it on his own. In the end they both deserve each other as they are both cheating lying aholes
@@mariokokkinos2539 lol Logan didn't have his shit together.
@@prettynerd4779 really was he successful. cause he didn't do shit in the revival lol
Most disappointing revival ever
THEY NEED TO MAKE ANOTHER REVIVAL
Mitchum said ‘he is married to someone who lives in different country - smart girl’ really dig at Rory when she didn’t want to marry Logan.
There is no ending that would’ve made everyone happy.
You gotta love Mitchum waltzing in to piss around his son and mark the territory: tat's a rare good dad effort from his part.
Rory really failed didnt she...
Im upset that they aren’t together anymore like wtf
I wanna know how they remet on the reboot
Why the writer has to destroy Rory’s character like that? Really don’t understand. I dont believe there is a Yale graduate who can’t find a job!
I really wish Rory and Logan got married. This is so depressing
I feel like this revival is pointing out how much Rory and Logan are endgame. It shows how Rory helped Logan get independent from his family and how Logan helped her being her best self, which they drift away from when they split. Without one another, they are lost. It also shows that they can't get away from each other even-though it implies to cheat on their partners.If they had faced the truth about their feelings this would never have happened. And please the diner at a family restaurant is for sure a sign Logan wants his relationship with Rory to be seen by others (especially his family). I'm sure if she had asked him not to marry Odette he will have once again turned his back on his family and married her straight away !!!
The boy that she can't quit
her speaking finally got better
Mitchum: “He’s engage to a lady living in another country, smart lady”.
Mitchum throwing shades.😭😭😭
I could feel the sarcasm here, because this is exactly what Rory could have done if she was smarter, because Logan was so flexible and open minded.
I just can’t get over what they have done to her character…this is ridiculous
Sleeping with Logan knowing he is engaged suggests Rory never learned from her past mistakes. It is almost like she is trying to get Logan to propose again, i.e., accept what she rejected on graduation day.
Mitchum hasnt aged a day!!!
wow seeing mitchum and logan sitting together
They should have gotten married
I’m just going to pretend the reboot never happened...
I used to be Team Jess or Team Logan...
Now I don't think she deserves either of them.
Logan's a cheater and a coward, he doesn't deserve anyone
@@sonias9722 I agree. I thought he started off kind of well in the first season he appeared but he became such a cheater and a liar. :/
@@moondreamer1677 Rory used to make him a better person, but he didn't seem to bring out the best in her
There good together
When I rewatch this scene now, it looks to me that Mitchum is not behaving like a jerk trying to show Lory her place, he actually genuinely wants to warn her, that Logan will never be exclusive for her and he genuinely offers her help, because he does want her to move on an succeed and not get stuck with dead-end relationship with his son...
I hate that suki left I hope in revial 2 she comes back
Rory aged by a decade and it's visible.
Well considering it's been an actual decade...
I think she looks really good.
no shit
I don't get why Rory didn't just say yes when Logan asked her to get married. She could given engagement a chance. Still pursue her career. Clearly after all these years she stayed stuck on Logan. Paul didn't seem like her type at all. They were better off having her come back and together with Marty.
Mitchum looks the same 🤣
Wait why does Mitchum look exactly the same haha
now im afraid of getting old they look so unhappy and boring they should of gotten married
I watched this revival when it came out and I don't remember any of these scenes
Her posture is terrible here
Paul Anka got big
Now season 2 might be coming. I'm against it. I feel like writing a letter to Amy Sherman Palladino telling her why I hate the revival. Rory was so damaged by the revival that even if she redeems herself in season 2 I still won't be able to get over the damage that was already done. I think Amy should know the reason we're so upset.
Is it really coming? OMG!!
@@designsketchloveit We don't know for sure yet but Amy said a couple weeks ago she was considering it.
@@kiranolan7104 well if she really is going to do another season of the revival I hope she fixes this mess otherwise I hope she doesn't bother to do anything.
Please no one let her near the show again. She already tried to destroy it with a day in the life. She clearly doesn’t love the characters or anyone who loved the show anymore.
I wish when the phone call ended and Lor was petting Paul Anka she said “your sisters a liar Paul Anka”
Why is her posture so bad lol it’s all I can see
Did Lorelai know about Rory and Logan? Don't remember them discussing it.
Yes, Rory told her about it.
who did mitchum say smart girl to, rory or odette?
Oddette
Odette? More like Odile
Jk it doesn’t really matter I was just trying to be a bit clever
That's why she always failed in real world. If u r not powerful as Huntzbergers, no matter Gilmore implies, u have to take every chance and be wild to survive. She still thinks she's special that's why she couldnt survive in wild journalism ecosystem
I’m okay with Rory’s trouble with men, her father never was there for her. That trouble finds some when they are younger and in their 30s for others. There’s no time table on emotional scars
I hated the cinematography in the revival.
Soooooo dark
Innit so crazy when rory and logans baby will be 8 year old
Their wordplay was always so good. They should have ended up together. Everyone compares him to Christooher (no way) but I think he's more like Lorelai.
I’m missing something does Logan live in London or does he live in New York? And where does Odette supposedly live?
This Hass to be revival not season seven right I’m totally behind 😊
Rory and Logan belong together.
This revival was awful. I’m just going to simply pretended it never happened 😌
Why the writers destroid those charaters?'?
rory deserved so much better, she could've been such a great role model or something, its just so disappointing to see her go back to her college boyfriend and be his misstress while also cheating on that other guy
why does Mitchum look the exact same?
I wish she could channel Rory better. I think she needs to watch the original Gilmore girls.
I guess logans dad was right....she wasn't cut out for journalism. Rory didn't know how to take constructive criticism...she never asked logans dad to hekp her get better at this, she never admitted to lorelai that she loved logan and wanted to path a life with him. Instead she tried to be the women lorelai wanted, failed at it and by the time Lorelei realised her daughter was in trouble it was to late.
This was the one thing I didn’t like, making them cheaters
Never liked Logan or Mitchum.. Rory does fit in with them though. They all cheat. They all are entitled.
