He was far from perfect, but I think him snapping at her over the key is indicative of how she treated him - as an after thought. He was supporting cast in the Lorelai and Rory show. (I don't mean the literal show. I mean how she acted.) Very true. She did treat him like crap but he should have seen the writing on the wall.

He really should have. Lorelai should have too. If things keep getting weird between you and the person your dating. That's a sign you should break up. Your just not compatable. Especially when the first thing Lorelai says when he says they should do something during the fight at the end of season one is break up and he suggests marriage. If the person your dating first response to that question is break up? Its over. Max was an idiot for suggesting marriage and proposing. They both were idiots during the proposal. Lorelai clearly wasn't into it and she wasn't making any room for him in her life or Rory's. Being rude with Rory when Max stayed over and her weird reaction to going upstairs with him? Then getting into Rory's bed? Break up with him Lorelai! She clearly didn't want to marry him and it was very clear she really wasn't that into him anymore.

SJC February 16, 2022 Share February 16, 2022 I am sure this has been discussed already, but the moment where Emily gets so emotional at Lorelai's graduation is so touching. Emily was just so openly proud. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/40828-season-2/page/7/#findComment-7295123

I know I've nit-picked it in the past, but it really is a good one, even though (or maybe because?) it involves Rory really letting Lorelai down.

Yeah—and actually, given the Gilmore family dynamics, if Rory had been there, she would have siphoned some of the attention away from Lorelai—not deliberately, of course, but because her grandparents always saw her as their redemption. Without her, the day was just about Emily and Richard (and Sookie) celebrating Lorelai's achievement without any snarky or wistful comparisons to Rory.

andromeda331 February 19, 2022 Share February 19, 2022 Couldn't Lorelai have both? The great moment with her parents, Rory, Sookie and Jackson. She's never had that before. It would have been really, really special for her. I hate that her graduation day is partly ruined by Rory. At the end when Rory wants to go to her room and says she doesn't deserve to go out with Lorelai. Lorelai sadly points out that Lorelai does.

Show that Lorelai and her parents were able to have such moments for their relationship and not just because they all love Rory. Also, we had to set up the Jess kiss and Rory's Bad Boy phase so she had to let Lorelai down. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/40828-season-2/page/7/#findComment-7300694
ZuluQueenOfDwarves August 26, 2023 Share August 26, 2023 I’m rewatching because Fall is imminent and this show is my cozy show, but I don’t know why I didn’t ever notice before, but the Bracebridge Dinner is referred to as a recreation of the 19th century multiple times. The 19th century? The Regency, Jane Austen, Brontë sisters, Victorian Era, Gilded Age, steamships, locomotives, Industrial Revolution 19th Century? Because everything about it was a Medieval Times minus the joust. I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t just say 15th or 16th century.

I know they spent millions making this show, would have killed them to I don't know, Google it or ask somebody or anything? As much as I love the coziness aspect of the episode I kept being pulled out of it by the anachronisms. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/40828-season-2/page/7/#findComment-8126484
