One thing to note early rd: Lane. A lot of people find elements of her character re: her family/upbringing to be a bit in the nose/stereotypical, but it’s important to note that Lane is based almost beat for beat on Helen Pai, the creator’s best friend who is also the shows music producer. According to Helen, they actually toned down a couple of elements of Mrs Kim 😂
Geez, I've been watching Gilmore Girls since it debuted and when I watch reaction videos I usually read all the comments and yet I was this many years old when I learned this tidbit so thank you for filling us in on that 🙏🏻 I love it when a character is based on a real person, those tend to be some of the coolest ones! ☺️❤️
@@sorchamiana haha happy to help! I just think it’s important to note bc a lot do people think it’s a broad strokes stereotype but it’s actually pretty well rooted in real life.
About Gilmore Girls: if I were teaching English as a Second Language , I would make the students view this show, and take notes! The linguistic banter is something they would never get from even the best textbook!
Yes, that is Chad Michael Murray who was also on 'One Tree Hill'! I also unfortunately have to agree with you on Lorelai not being a girl's girl (00s me was not aware enough, but it is always striking during a re-watch)
I bet if I had watched it first time round in the 00’s I would NOT have got the Lorelai thing either! The amount of toxicity from that era was A LOT. (P.S is One Tree Hill worth a watch?! I HATE the name and can’t bring myself to watch it on that basis!)
@@BridgetteAmofah Right? We lived through a lot of iconic moments, but the atmosphere could be absolutely LETHAL sometimes. Full disclosure: I have not re-watched 'One Tree Hill' once since I originally watched it, but I did enjoy it at the time. It's definitely less wholesome, more soap opera vibes, but some badass girlies (as far as I remember😅). The name IS wild though. I think it was the town's name???
As a woman of colour, I need more content of British RUclipsrs roasting American 00's show for its racism & narcissism lmao!!! Is cheaper than therapy ....
@@BridgetteAmofah Keep up the great work ... am Asian so I would love your take on Lane & Michel arcs! Such great actors who never really got their due.
Paris and Emily are my favorite characters. the way they insult people so casually yet piercingly 💀 it’s the best. toxic but the most fun to watch no doubt
Girl! I just finished the series for the first time and I just found your videos. I thought I'd rewatch after finishing the series but now I'd rather have you narrate to me the episodes instead HAHAHA this is definitely more entertaining. Love this!
Lorelai pushes back hard against her parents doing things like getting her internet because they're very manipulative and controlling, and she knows that so shes trying to draw lines fast. I love Emily too, though, lol.
I think you really pinpointed why I couldn’t get into this show, which is the weird codependent parent vibes and *so many* strangers hitting on the mcs. It just feels stressful.
You will also see in later seasons that she has a huge house but there is talk of moving to a bigger house to start a family acting as if her house is super tiny.
I understand that it's part of the plot, but I think that if Lorelai really wanted to cut off all ties with her family, she would have moved somewhere far away, or at least to another state
Lorelai's not a girl's girl because she said something about the secretary's makeup, but you love Paris because she's already decided that she hates Rory even though she doesn't know anything about Rory?
This was so fun! I just started watching Gilmore Girls, and I currently left off on season 4 episode 18. Im going out of town to Europe for work for the next month and a half, so I'll have to wait to catch up when I get home, and all I want is to watch this damn show 😂 But, Rory started bugging the hell out of me in seasons 4 😭
Ok so far I cannot imagine loving either of them! But I am prepared to wade in and wait for my mind to be changed! He just seems sooooo smug and annoying!
okay the first day outfit was a jooooke hahah. she was just trying to fuck with rory by being obnoxious and was clearly surprised when rory was like "you have to come inside" so she actually played herself (i know we're all having fun being haters and i'm 100% ready to go back to being a hater for subsequent episodes but people always complain about this bit being dumb/not making sense but its literally just a dumb joke)
OH MY GOODNESS! I mean a tiny part of me thought she might be trolling Rory (which is why I was saying she was trying it!) but I kind of love that she took the joke all the way. Lorelai has gone up for me again!
Hello! I am so sorry for not having a warning! I will endeavour to not have flashing lights and I actually thought about that in the latest video and then completely forgot. I’m an idiot, but yeah in the latest video at 7.35 there are flashing lights for about 2 seconds too x

Omggg yesss i can see why! ❤
Paris is very Emily coded
They both have savage one-liners
Its Emily/Paris/Michele for me. Everyone has quippy one liners, but these 3 are savage and I love them.
"I'm sick of these men" I hope you keep up this energy for Max 😄
OH LAWD. I can only imagine MORE men…..!
Maaax Medina… Yeah, never really liked Max.
@@JackiePearl I sorta liked him he was nice to Rory and loralai but other than that not really
Rory and Paris give off closeted girls who pretend to rivals to hide the fact they're secretly in love. It gets so much gayer as the show goes on
Oooooohhhh!👏🏿
The spring break episode…
OKAY but this. This. This.

@@BridgetteAmofahimo One Tree Hill is def the worst one of all the famous teen shows of that era. It's so ridiculous some people think it's camp tho.
@@rocketpit101it’s the bessssst. Classic.

@@MyKrabi hahahahahahhaha I aim to please!
@@BridgetteAmofah Keep up the great work ... am Asian so I would love your take on Lane & Michel arcs! Such great actors who never really got their due.
@@MyKrabi I can already feel Lane isn't gonna be done right! I'm just editing next episode and she is such a a sweet friend to Rory so far!
Paris and Emily are my favorite characters. the way they insult people so casually yet piercingly 💀 it’s the best. toxic but the most fun to watch no doubt
💯 absolute FAVES!
If you can’t stand Rory right now wait until season 4 and 5
And I ooooppp!!
And 6 and 7 and all the movies.
@@SaraLoretta
What do you mean by that? 👿
@@SaraLoretta
Do you know true pain?
I actually liked her character more in the later seasons. She was so BORING when she was little miss perfect, I like flawed characters more.
i absolutely ADORE that u are literally going episode by episode💀💀
New episode dropping later and it’s honestly my favourite one yet! So Much Drama!
@BridgetteAmofah love u🙏
RUclips algorithm is at it again, I’m so glad I found your channel! This vid was a lot of fun
Welcome! Glad to have you!
As a gilmore girl fan, I love your commentary , keep going!
Thank you!
Were all Lorelai's sensible shoes at the dry cleaners too? Except the cowboy boots. Obvs.
Girl! I just finished the series for the first time and I just found your videos. I thought I'd rewatch after finishing the series but now I'd rather have you narrate to me the episodes instead HAHAHA this is definitely more entertaining. Love this!
Yasssssss! Welcome! Just watching episode 3….oh boy…
Lorelai pushes back hard against her parents doing things like getting her internet because they're very manipulative and controlling, and she knows that so shes trying to draw lines fast.
I love Emily too, though, lol.
omg welcome to the paris-lovers club!! it’s great here and it’s very gay
Weeeeeeeeeee!!!💅🏿
I’m a big GG fan and I’m here for your breakdowns! Keep them coming! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Will do! I’m invested! Thanks for being here
I think you really pinpointed why I couldn’t get into this show, which is the weird codependent parent vibes and *so many* strangers hitting on the mcs. It just feels stressful.
It’s a LOT!!!
super duper here for your reviews. pls continue I love them thank you so much
So glad you’re enjoying!!
binging ur gilmore girls series, and all i have to say is u need to do like audiobooks ur voice is so soothing
Thank you so much! I hate having to hear my voice back but I persevere for the people!

THIS!
'There's a resemblance'...I snorted!
Honestly he is QUEEN!!
I love Alexis Bledel, it's something you don't want to fuck with, it's spiritual
Fair Play!
@@BridgetteAmofahShe is brilliant in Handmaid’s Tale. Plays a lesbian named Emily who really goes through it.
Man never noticed how narcissistic lorelai is. She wore the boots on purpose, she's jealous of rory hahahahha jk but prove me wrong 🤷♀️
👀👀👀 not entirely sure , but I love the theory!
I love your energy and way of commenting on the story
Thanks so much! Welcome!
Whoo a great Sunday to settle in with your video.❤
Lorelai's not a girl's girl because she said something about the secretary's makeup, but you love Paris because she's already decided that she hates Rory even though she doesn't know anything about Rory?
The heart wants what the heart wants 🤷🏿♀️
@@BridgetteAmofah that's actually a thing. People really hate Rory but love Paris.
we love paris cause she doesn't pretend to be nice, she's mean from the get go hahahahaha
@@calforde9393 That makes her a mean girl not a girl's girl. LMAO
This was so fun! I just started watching Gilmore Girls, and I currently left off on season 4 episode 18. Im going out of town to Europe for work for the next month and a half, so I'll have to wait to catch up when I get home, and all I want is to watch this damn show 😂
But, Rory started bugging the hell out of me in seasons 4 😭
I feel bad cause Rory is bugging me now and I’m on episode 4!!! Hahahahhahahahah. I am enjoying it though. VPN?!! It’s addictive!
we need more cynical girl reacts to girl friendship in small nosy town.
💅🏿 I got you…Gossip Girl is probably incoming…although I don’t think it’s set in a small town
lowk love tristan and rory as the seasons go on - excited for episode 3 reaction 😁
Ok so far I cannot imagine loving either of them! But I am prepared to wade in and wait for my mind to be changed! He just seems sooooo smug and annoying!
@@BridgetteAmofah for me its part of the charm - also cant help that he was my childhood crush in the cinderella movies
means girls was 2004 and gg season 1 is like 2000 so this came first :)
Ahhhh so potentially inspired! (Or maybe that depiction of a trio of girls WAS the 90’s!)
This was as entertaining as the show😂❤.
@@tiffanypersaud3518 some new MESS coming tomorrow! Thanks for watching X
I can't control my shakes
Some people just got it like that
FACTS💅🏿
One tree hill is good, would love to hear you talk about it. It's free to view on itv catch up 💕
Oooooooh ok! I may give it a go!
okay the first day outfit was a jooooke hahah. she was just trying to fuck with rory by being obnoxious and was clearly surprised when rory was like "you have to come inside" so she actually played herself (i know we're all having fun being haters and i'm 100% ready to go back to being a hater for subsequent episodes but people always complain about this bit being dumb/not making sense but its literally just a dumb joke)
OH MY GOODNESS! I mean a tiny part of me thought she might be trolling Rory (which is why I was saying she was trying it!) but I kind of love that she took the joke all the way. Lorelai has gone up for me again!
It being a joke makes me hate it more, ngl. Lorelai is terrible when it comes to boundaries and the first day of school was important to Rory
Love this
hi for next time can u please not having flashing lights in ur video (neurodivergent pain ahaha)
Hello! I am so sorry for not having a warning! I will endeavour to not have flashing lights and I actually thought about that in the latest video and then completely forgot. I’m an idiot, but yeah in the latest video at 7.35 there are flashing lights for about 2 seconds too x
Paris is the BEST!!!
random question, have you ever seen 'You're the Worst'? I (heard) it's good, but never saw it
Ooooh no I haven’t heard of it, but I’m intrigued now!
