Didn't mean to give away any spoilers...assumed you'd seen the promos for future episodes or read Entertainment Weekly. A thousand apologies. But look at the bright side, you probably don't have to worry about your co-workers giving away what happened in the last episode. At least if you stay around the menfolk.And speaking of menfolk, my friend's husband "can't" watch Gilmore Girls. "They talk too much. It makes my head hurt." And Mike Teller says he just has no interest in watching the dynamics between a grown woman and her daughter - he sees enough of that at home (with my own mother). But he will come in to see what all the laughter is about, usually when Kirk is involved. And speaking of EW, I just read a blurb about the Daniel Johnston movie. I'll be the first to admit that I just don't get it. I think my cats could put out better music. And speaking of good tv, if you aren't already watching, you really should check out Veronica Mars. Renting the DVDs is a good way to spend a weekend. The writing is similar to GG; very sharp, very smart. And it's not a "girl" show despite appearances. So hopefully if you admit you like it, you won't be subjected to Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. In other news, Debbie just had a baby last week. A baby girl named Alexandria Paige, her first.PS: Please please lose the "The". It's just "Gilmore Girls". For a show that's all about pop culture references, it's important.

No spoilers about this season! (Or the end of Season 5. I'm way behind right now, but they're all TIVO'd and waiting for me.)I get that people don't "get" Gilmore Girls. I'm cool with that. What I don't get, I guess, is that people don't get my reasons for digging it so much. I'm a guy. I love baseball. I love Die Hard movies. I do guy stuff. I just like this show a lot because the characters are dorks like I am. They're much better looking dorks than me or anyone I know, but that's TV for ya.BTW, admitting you like "The Gilmore Girls" has one unfortunate side-effect: I was forced to sit through Pride & Prejudice the other night. Ugh.Hey Lynnie! Hope you're well!

You either “get” Gilmore Girls or you don’t. Take this season’s finale. The guest bands might draw in some indie fans, but unless they fall in love with the characters of Stars Hollow, they won’t be around next season. And they won’t be watching Veronica Mars either. Because some people just don’t get it.
