tumblr recently has made me realize how few of us have tiktok (i envy you) haha. i never look up gilmore girls content anywhere but here because of how much i disagree with a lot of their takes (e.g. rory’s just an annoying brat). but the show trends every autumn and you really can’t escape it! the entire new generation watching the show are pretty much OBSESSED with tristan. which, yeah i don’t get. i guess that’s what happens when you see chad michael murray the first time.
Listen I know that he wasn't a boyfriend and was only in 11 episodes
But it is WILD to me that we never talk about Tristian!! Not ever? I have been in and out of this fandom since 2007, I have never seen even a meta post about him
We talk about Marty! Who was in fewer episodes in seasons people like less!
I'm not saying I hold a candle for this little fuck but he's a sad white boy with daddy issues that fact that this fandom doesn't have a few overgrown feral Tristan girlies (that I've seen in the past 16 years anyway) is SHOCKING
#i wish i could just use tiktok for recipes but i hear “what’s the verdict every two scrolls#gilmore girls#i never cared for tristan but he is the man of the hour every september for the editors#teddypickerry#gilmore girls rants#gilmore girls asks

these two should have been friends, they could have moved in together and shared an apartment, jess could be an author and lane could do her band, they could show off cds and rory could come and hang with them all the time

Rory liked Dean but she didn’t love him. She liked going on dates with him. She liked that he’d spend time with her and watch movies with her and get along with her mother. But there was no fire, no matter how much she wanted there to be one. She couldn’t burn like she did for exploring the world and the written word. She couldn’t burn for him.
Rory loved Logan but she didn’t like him. She loved his freedom, his adventurous spirit, his lust for life. She loved how she could let herself go with him, put faith in something dangerous and not shatter. But she didn’t like how cruel he could be to others. She didn’t like how dismissive he was, of responsibilities, of consequences, of people’s hurt. She didn’t really like him.
Rory liked Jess and she loved him. She liked that he liked the same stuff as her, liked that he’d help out his uncle without bragging, and talk with her friends, and throw literary challenges at her because he genuinely wanted her opinion. She loved his honesty, his integrity, how he’d leave her speechless with his gaze and breathless with his kisses. How he looked at her, all of her, and never made her feel like she was lacking. She liked and she loved him. And it scared her shitless.
#REMINDER: THIS IS MY INTEPRETATION OF THINGS AND NOT OBJECTIVE WHAT SO EVER#AND I AM AWARE OF THAT AND MY SHIPPING BIAS#really I do think it’s more complicated than this and that she liked and loved a little of all of them#I just like the sad poetry of this take ya know how the one she felt it all with was the one she couldn’t handle being with#gilmore girls#jess mariano#rory gilmore#literati#the potato rants#gilmore girls meta#my meta

Just saw a TikTok comment saying "I think Logan stans like Logan, while Jess stans like Jess and Rory together." and I can't help but think THAT THIS IS SO TRUE!
If you're talking about Jess, Rory is never out of context. It's always talking about how they bring out the best in each other at the right time, how they need each other, how they made each other better, yada yada yada. In the end, they're soulmates, pushing towards each other. As much as I love Jess (seriously, I have a problem), I would always want him more for Rory, for them to be happy together as adults in love in a way I'm so certain they can be.
And with Logan, ... Istg if I see one more person saying "Rory should've said yes to Logan's proposal" I am gonna riot, like full on burning a house down. "But he loves her so much, he can give everything for her!" HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT'S GOOD FOR HER! Yes, most of it is her decisions and mistakes, but good god he doesn't do anything real or impactful about it. He just lets her. It's always "But Logan is..." or "Logan will...", and oh my god this show is NOT titled "Huntzbergers". What about what Rory wants??? What about her??? Can't you see that he brings out the bad from her? Not only him but his entire environment???
Hhhh, most of Logan stans I see on TikTok only love him because he's rich and knows how to have a good adventurous time. Don't they care about the actual emotional connection between two destined people?? And don't even get me started on them comparing adult Logan and teenage Jess, which is another rant entirely. "THIS is how a healthy relationship should look like!", and it's a clip on Logan being there when Richard is sent to the hospital, not on him bribing Rory with coffee without even saying "I'm sorry" or any other manipulative shit he has done. There are two sides to a coin; If you refused to see that on Jess, sure as hell I'm not letting you ignore it on Logan.
And I also saw a comment saying "Logan loved her so much he'll agree to anything she does because he'll follow her every decision." and um, isn't that... like, not healthy?? Loving someone should mean you want what's best for them, knowing someone so well that with one glance you can tell something's not right, not seeing them drown in a lifestyle YOU INFLUENCED ON THEM, and just decide to be happy and follow them deeper and deeper into it. Rory and Logan would not last A MINUTE outside the Yale bubble, and that is a statement I'll carry to my grave.

people have asked me why i ship literati over the other gilmore girls ships. (no one has asked me in my life) but i think what it really comes down to is chemistry. i don’t think any other ship in the show (besides lorelai and luke) have the amount of chemistry that jess and rory have, they just click so well, they share interests but challenge each other and i will adore them FOREVER.

The crazy pipeline of watching Saw, becoming obsessed with it, starting to really like Strahm, and then discovering his actor plays in Gilmore Girls and thus starting to watch it aswell 😭
--It's not even that kind of stuff I normally enjoy. Cozy, turn-off-your-brain romantic series for girlies is EXACTLY that kind of stuff that works on me like a crucifix. I remember it used to air decade ago on TV and I've thought of it as something 40 y.o. moms watch in their free time to get their heads from life's stress. Just bunch of lovey dovey stuff to make you feel for those 40mins happy. Indeed, I'm very sour person.
-Insane thing is, I am starting to kinda getting to like it. It's not as super-lovely-cozy as I thought it would be, though I still can't grasp some of the dieting decisions few of the characters have, and whenever it's for sake of making viewer craving some pizza or cake, or it's a legit representation of American cuisine.
I'm getting fairly invested in its drama aspect, and hats down to the writers, some of the plot-moving set pieces are pretty great. There are moments that are bit cliché and sometimes make me legit scream out on the screen, wanting the characters NOT do it, but that's also in a way pretty fun thing to be doing. Feel sorry for others who hear me.
While most of the epic pop-culture references are dated as hell, some interactions between the characters are genuine gem to listen to. I hate that alot of the jokes and callbacks are not possible to be used in my language aswell, or else I'd write them down on huuuge list for future use.
...yeah, it's not Citizen Kane and shouldn't be treated like one. But it has some pretty good aspects and moments of insanely funny comedy. I'm curious how many Saw girlies started to watch Gilmore Girls because of Scott, and if any poor GG fan started to watch Saw because of him aswell. They're both sweetheart characters but gosh, aren't they quite different 😭 (I also want to rip my hair out 'cause the only person I know IRL who knows GG told me Luke and Lorelai are gonna get together after many SEASONS, which just makes me want to die)

the way by the end of s3, the show demonises jess for being careless about his attendance for highschool and pretty much blames it all on him, never sits right with me.....don't get me wrong, jess is to blamed for his actions but they were so many other factors at play. firstly, liz abandons jess at luke's out of nowhere, with no proper consent from jess, so his academic year at nyc is done. then he starts at stars hollow. the way luke cares so much abt if jess is missing out on school or not, but does not think twice to send jess back to nyc after the car accident, even though it disrupts jess's academics in stars hollow. then, jess decides to come back to stars hollow again, joining back in the middle of the school year. like if my academic life was disrupted that way by adults around me constantly, i would stop taking it seriously too? let me not start on the school institution not setting a proper meeting with the guardian to break down the news of jess not graduating, or even giving a second last warning before breaking such a news to a kid....neither the teachers nor the principal are constant in their efforts to keep luke involved about jess's attendance. like they called luke once to talk about jess's marks and vandalism and then never again.....and suddenly it's "you are not graduating jess!". and the explanation that the principal gives too that jess "blew off the warning notes" like WHY ARE YOU NOT CONTACTING THE GUARDIAN AFTER A POINT? why are you trying to set up meetings with the 17 year old kid who youre aware is blowing you off? dropping the news of jess not graduating directly to him without even luke being present to talk? and jess just took 31 days out of a cutoff of 20 like.....i know friends who took even 2 months off of their academic year lol.....i get so pissed everytime i reach that plotline of the show. do not get me wrong. this is not me saying, "oh poor jess, he did nothing wrong. everybody else is to blame".....ofcourse jess fcked up bigtime. but there were many factors that led up to what happened with jess. jess is not the only one to be blamed.

It never stops to frustrate me that Rory isn't allowed to be mad at Logan in S6. He accurately points out that she hasn't forgiven him for cheating on her, and Rory doesn't deny it...and then we don't get to see the fallout. Rory kisses Jess and then pulls away in a panic and her confusion about that and anger with Logan are just swept under the rug because he injures himself in his stupid stunt, and Rory is consumed with guilt instead.
I don't know if this was supposed to be an issue which continued into ASP's S7 and 8, but it's so frustrating that Rory and Logan don't seem to have any more problems for the rest of S6. In general I can't stand death/injuries as plot devices for fixing problems, even this was only meant to be a temporary fix.
In general it annoys/intrigues me that Rory never breaks up with anyone until AYITL (interestingly enough with Logan). It's very telling that despite accepting Logan's argument that he didn't cheat on her while they were apart, Rory still informs Jess that Logan cheated on her. She holds it against him and there are signs that she is beginning to find his lifestyle more foolish than exciting, but in the end it's never fully explored.

I Am All In Rewatch - Episode 2x15 (Part 3)
Getting back to that rant. Interesting he goes to her and really lets loose like that. And I was, you know, I was sitting there actually just trying to, you know, I was getting judgy with my acting and judging with the choices I was making. And, but, you know, and the thing that was amazing me and we'll, we'll get a little wonky here on, on acting technique a little bit. I was amazed at how with such, you know, it's a very difficult assignment for Lauren because she can't throw off my timing because I'm just going like a million miles an hour. You know, every, every movement is connected to something, you know, I've got to hit all those beats through that speech and she can't mess me up. Right. She's got to keep the balls in the air the same way I am. And if she hesitates a little bit on one line, cause she had these like, well, what'd you say in the, you know, this kind of thing, that's hard. It's really hard To do. Go watch that scene again and look how relaxed she is and how with what such ease she gets through that scene. It's wonderful...And it's just like, she's really there for you as a partner, as a scene partner. And she's like, she's saying to you, I'm not gonna let you fall. I'm gonna, I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna, I'm gonna hit my cues. Your timing's going to be perfect. Don't worry. Just go. And I remember every single take, it was like, it was, it was magic. I mean, she, it's really hard to do really hard to do that. And usually it takes a long time, but with her, it was just, it's just easy, you know? -Scott

Actually you know what I need to rant about this: while literati is technically a good girl x bad boy dynamic it is written so incredibly well and avoids so many pitfalls and stereotypes that it makes a good girl x bad boy hater like myself (I’m only half joking — I don’t think any trope is inherently good or bad but I tend to dislike most pairings with this dynamic) fall head over heels for their story and relationship.
So much of what makes the two of them work is the contrast between how others perceive them and how they truly are. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of people who understand who Rory is as a person (Lorelai, Lane, Paris, Richard and Emily to a certain degree for starters), but she's constantly met with the expectation that she just does good and is supposed to make everyone proud 24/7. Stars Hollow as a group especially are big on this, as seen f. ex. through how Taylor takes Rory's one comment about an inappropriate DVD and twists the whole thing into a censorship crusade and makes Rory its poster-child even though she wants nothing to do with it and tells him so repeatedly. But instead of hearing Rory disagree with him (like he would Lorelai and Luke) he assumes that she actually agrees with him - and why shouldn't she when she's the perfect sunshine paragon of good who would never disagree with her elders? Also her grandparents treat her as incredibly fragile and childlike, like she must be too innocent to ever do anything wrong and so whenever she does something it has to be somebody else's fault (usually Lorelai, but occasionally Jess or whoever else was present). Time and time again Rory is treated like something innocent and naive and weak — but not by Jess. He sees her as a person.
And it obviously goes the other way too. Jess is treated like shit by pretty much everyone else. Either people hate him unprovoked or very much provoked (he did do a lot of pranks in his first few weeks and while I'm a Dean-hater I'm not blind to how much Jess picked fights with him), or they’ve simply given up on him. He tells Rory himself that every authority figure he had back in New York gave up on him too, from teachers to principals to his very own mother. But Rory doesn’t treat him like a lost cause, she treats him like the smart, brilliant and asshole-ish teen that he is. By having faith in him she also often holds him more accountable than others. Where f. ex. Lorelai or the other adults just roll their eyes, Rory physically drags Jess into doing his shifts at the diner. While others write him off, Rory chews Jess’ ear out for not helping Luke more and for willfully making enemies out of the Stars Hollow adults.
They don't put each other on pedestals or below each other. Jess doesn’t try to make a sinner out of Rory and she doesn’t try to make a saint out of him. There’s genuine respect between them. They expect each other to have integrity and treat others with kindness and honesty, and the rest is good old chemistry and common interests.
I particularly love how in so many of their scenes (especially pre-relationship) when they spend time alone they just get to be these goofy nerdy kids. They argue about controversial authors and dig through records shops and eat hot dogs and make fun of each other and try to make each other laugh. It’s not just sexual chemistry as it too often is in a dynamic like this (and often uncomfortably sexual when writing teenagers - looking at you Gossip Girl), and not just well written intellectual chemistry — they have platonic chemistry too. A hell of a lot of it actually.
While I don’t think ASP wrote them through a purely deconstructionist lens on the good girl x bad boy dynamic (if she did plan on writing the dynamic at all), there is something to be said about how where many around them treat them like stereotypes they treat each other like people. To so many people, Rory is a perfect small town princess, a little miss sunshine with booksmarts for days but too delicate and sweet for anything with grit and weight. To a lot of the same people and many more Jess is a pathetic brutish and maniacal lost cause, hell personified in a chainsmoking leather-wearing teenager. But to each other they are actual human beings. Kind and mean and flirtatious and scared and reckless and smart. Rory really thinks that with the right motivation and mindset Jess can be the kind who does (and at the end wrote) incredible things. Jess really believes that with a little more practice and support to step out of her comfort zone she can be the amazing journalist she wishes to be.
They don’t have this stupid «we’re so bad for each other but we can’t stay away» thing that too many trope users rely on and don’t even justify in the plot. Everyone else might think they’re not fit for each other, but they knew they were each other’s person from the very first day.
#where a lot of good girl x bad boy dynamics are about opposites attracting#what draws Rory and Jess towards each other is how much they resonate with each other#the books the weight of expectations and assumptions the passion for more in life#they don't look at each other and see a sexy alien world they look at each other and see themselves#me rant because me unnecessarily passionate about this#again I don't inherently hate the good girl x bad boy dynamic#there's just so many examples of doing it badly out there#like I don't even need the dynamic to be morally good I just need it to be justified in the narrative#and to not just rely on the same old “it's so bad but it feels so good” and relying on stereotypes over actual character writing#Rory and Jess is one of the ways this dynamic is actually done right and it's because ASP doesn't dumb them down#or take the dynamic for granted just because it's popular and bound to have an audience#literati#gilmore girls#rory gilmore#jess mariano#rory x jess#gilmore girls meta#my meta#also extra because I can't contain myself
