Attempting to answer my own questions...
If I could keep just 5-10 episodes of the entire series, I'd pick.....
Mine change with ridiculous frequency, but today I'll go with Rory's Birthday Parties, Double Date; Like Mother, Like Daughter; Run Away Little Boy; Lorelai's Graduation Day; Lazy Hazy Crazy Days; They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?; Those Are Strings, Pinnochio; The Fundamental Things Apply; Bon Voyage. And, like, 70-80 more :)
If I could own just TWO of the seven seasons, I'd choose....
Seasons 2 and 3! I love S1 and S4 and some individual episodes from S5 and S7, but S2 and S3 are my favorite by a surprisingly wide margin.
If I could recast just ONE role, it would be...
Logan! I think I could have found him a lot more compelling if he weren't played by someone whose perpetual smirk made him seem like a smarmy, condescending, untrustworthy ass to me even when he wasn't supposed to be. And I hate his boy band-y hair :) If I had to have one of these characters as my mother, I'd pick...
An adult Rory...? If not, Lorelai, please :)
If I could make one character change careers, I'd have _____ become a _____
Rory becomes an English teacher! I've bored you guys elsewhere about why :)
