Show Notes
It’s that time of year - leaves are beginning to fall and you’re unearthing the “Rory sweater” from the depths of your closet. It’s time to rewatch Gilmore Girls!
Whether you watch it every fall, or you’re constant loopers like us, Gilmore Girls is a show that begs to be rewatched over and over.
Today, sisters Jackie and Catherine delve into the benefits of rewatching and lessons learned from multiple viewings.
Which characters would constantly rewatch like us? Which ones would watch it once a year?
Most importantly, we reveal ways that our Gilmore opinions have changed over the years - especially when it comes to Christopher as a dad, Dean as a boyfriend, and who we relate to now that we’re in our 40s.
Episodes mentioned: Emily in Stars Hollow Taylor Doose: Friend or Foe? Rory and Dean: the early romance

More from Gabbing Gilmore: A Gilmore Girls Deep Dive
Of all the Stars Hollow town festivals, the Bid on a Basket event is not discussed enough! But arguably, it had the biggest impact on our favorite Gilmore Girls women. Today, we chat about the blowback of this seemingly cute and harmless town tradition. Lorelai, Rory, Sookie, and Lane’s lives all changed after Taylor began the auction! Let’s chat about how each of their storylines changed - for better or for worse.
What happens when a good girl decides to “lose” her virginity? Can her first time be pleasant or does society force penalties, regrets and guilt onto her? Exhibit A: Rory Gilmore and Paris Geller.
Rory Gilmore’s relationship with Logan Huntzberger is a bumpy ride - especially during their casual dating stage. We answer: why did Rory choose casual dating? How did Lorelai handle it? Did Logan gaslight Rory because of his commitment-phobia?
Today, Catherine and Jackie are guests on a really fun podcast called Gilmore the Merrier. We are absolutely delighted to join host Bran, a longtime Gilmore Girls fan, along with his friends Dan and Chad, who are watching the show for the very first time. They’re going episode by episode, recapping and discussing everything as they go—and invited us to jump in for their Season 2 finale discussion of “Can’t Get Started.” This is one of Gabbing Gilmore's favorite season finales, I mean... those last five minutes!?! There is SO much to talk about. We get into some hot takes, including the all-important question: How do we feel about Rory kissing Jess?! We also talk about Sookie’s pre-wedding meltdown, and we dig into Christopher showing up when Rory gets her cast removed. What are his real motivations? Is this genuinely about Rory—or is something else going on? So, grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and join us as we revisit Season 2, Episode 22, “Can’t Get Started” with our new friends over at Gilmore the Merrier! ✨ If you want more chats about Gilmore Girls, get extra bonus episodes every month at patreon.com/gabbinggilmore
