I watched the episode titled “The Lorelais’ First Day at Yale” and found myself relating to Rory’s fears and over-the-top excitement at times as she moved into her new dorm with girls she didn’t know - minus one Paris Geller, Rory’s frenemy from high school. Last year, I watched a season four episode in which Rory starts college at the prestigious Yale University, which is also the alma mater of her maternal grandparents - the timelessly classy Richard and Emily Gilmore. But even in that frustration, the feelings of comfort overcome any kind of ill-feeling towards the show.Īnother reason why I love watching it now is that it’s fun to see that I can relate to Rory in so many different seasons - literally and figuratively. Is it sort of aggravating to watch Rory have the same conversations with Dean over and over again? Absolutely. Second, “Gilmore Girls” takes all of those feelings and bundles them into seven whole seasons of laughter, drama, fast-talking and coffee addictions - all things that every UD student can relate to. There’s a feeling that you’re home when it’s fall. There’s a certain pumpkin-spiced scent in the air - an intoxicating feeling of the crisp air cooling off our bodies that are far too used to oppressive heat by now. You may have noticed memes shared about this strong opinion and wonder why so many people are obsessed with a show that came out over 20 years ago and are committed to rewatching it every year.įirst, I think the season in general brings up feelings of nostalgia, comfort and a sublime sense of familiarity. One of my favorite shows to revisit every fall is “Gilmore Girls,” where mother and daughter duo Lorelai and Rory Gilmore are crowned as the season’s queens. Though it certainly does not feel like it is in our corner of the world, we can still pretend while we wait for the next cold front to roll through. 21 marks the beginning of the fall season.
