Heh----ISHBL was the only episode to receive more than one vote, and is hence the only one safe from our wrath! Now that the list is getting shorter, I'm thinking maybe there will be a little more overlap in our votes :)

Happy Birthday Baby and Die Jerk are safe! The next round is open, and we're still voting against three :) 

[nolieblue]

Daisies

Sadie

Girls in Bikinis (mostly because of Paris!)

[mstaken]

Daisies (way, way too much Max and Dean for my taste, but this one does have a few scenes that I really like, which ranks it above many of the others that remain!)

 

Paris is Burning (I love the final Rory/Paris scene and Rory comforting Lorelai)

 

I Solemnly Swear (I actually find the deposition stuff really amusing :) 

[Taryn74]

TKBNO (love the tailgating stuff, Emily all decked out in fanwear (hee!), and Richard with the whiffenpoofs)

 

GIBBDTT (because Paris truly is hilarious in this one)

 

Keg! Max! (because I can watch the band stuff and FF the rest)

So you know all those rounds we were only able to eliminate two rather than three since there was so little overlap among the votes? Well, now we can make up for it by eliminating four: Sadie, Sadie, Ted Koppel's Big Night Out, I Solemnly Swear and Keg! Max! (which is actually my least favorite episode of S1-S4!) We now have only ONE S1-S4 episode left! We're down to voting against just two :) My votes:

 

Paris is Burning 

The Great Stink

Booze

But I'm a Gilmore

[Taryn74]

Okay the rest of this game might cause me physical pain.  Ugh.

 

PiB

 

BBAM

[mstaken]

Just waiting for nolie and anyone else who may feel inclined to vote :) 

[nolieblue]

Paris

Melville

These are all so bad!

Ha---yes, the game has gotten amusingly torturous now! You know things are dire when the infamous Grand Theft Yacht-o episode gets saved over several others that remain ;)

 

My votes:

 

Always a Godmother

The Great Stink

 

...but, really, they're all pretty cringe-inducing :) 

Edited August 4, 2014 by mstaken

[Taryn74]

I know!  And the worst part is that I don't remember much about the episodes that remain other than what I hate about them (or that the storyline was kind of stupid, like the spilled pickle train or whatever it was LOL).

 

Uhhhhh......  BIAG and HSEB,D I guess.  I wasn't as horrified with Rory in BIAG as some others are, and I thought Chris' heart was in the right place in HSEB,D.

[nolieblue]

BIAG

Godmother

[mstaken]

Oh, wait, Godmother is still around?! I actually sort of semi-like that one...by rock bottom low S6 standards, that is :) Lorelai's behavior at the actual ceremony is beyond cringe-worthy, but the rest of the episode contains a few surprisingly good scenes, which elevates it above most of the remaining fare IMO! So I'm switching my vote from LFC to Always a Godmother, 

[lulu1960]

But I'm a Gilmore

Godmother

But I'm a Gilmore and Always a Godmother are safe, and the next round is open! Just find two of the remaining episodes that you want to save...or, um, at least hate a little less than the others :) 

 

My votes:

 

Lorelai's First Cotillion 

The Great Stink 

[lulu1960]

Lordie, this is tough and not in a good way.

Fisticuffs

Cotillion

[nolieblue]

I'll hold my nose and vote for:

 

Kropogs

Fisticuffs

[Taryn74]

I'm Slippin' down to my First Cotillion

[mstaken]

Hee---so much well-deserved 'love' for these episodes! This is making me appreciate our favorites all the more :) 

[mstaken]

How Many Kropogs to Cape Cod
He's Slipping 'Em Bread, Dig
A Vineyard Valentine
Bridesmaids Revisited
Driving Miss Gilmore
Partings
The Great Stink
Go Bulldogs
French Twist
Introducing Lorelai Planetarium
 

Wow, what a phenomenally impressive final 10! :) Just vote to save the two you hate a little less than the others that remain...

[Taryn74]

Slipping and The Great Stink, I guess.  I really don't remember much about that one other than it had to do with pickles.

[mstaken]

I'll go with The Great Stink and French Twist 

 

Part of my hatred for He's Slippin' 'Em Bread, Dig? comes from the irritating title. And, yes, I realize that's utterly ridiculous :) 

[nolieblue]

Kropogs

Stink

 

Just reading through the list of episodes makes me mad again at what they did to the show!

 

And I so agree with you mstaken about the title of Slippin! 

[Taryn74]

Oh I agree.  At this point, I'm trying to remember which of these eps had at least a moment or two in them that either I enjoyed, or at least I could see something good in it, to vote for.  Because we can throw all of these in the trash and I wouldn't care LOL.

[lulu1960]

Bread

Bulldogs. At least the Luke stuff was funny

[mstaken]

How Many Kropogs to Cape Cod
A Vineyard Valentine
Bridesmaids Revisited
Driving Miss Gilmore
Partings
Go Bulldogs
French Twist
Introducing Lorelai Planetarium

 

Bread and Great Stink are safe, and only these fabulous episodes remain! This is the last time we're voting for two :) 

[Taryn74]

Driving Miss Gilmore - because even though it didn't work out, I love that Richard and Emily tried so hard to find a way to buy Lorelai a bigger house in SH

 

Go Bulldogs - because lulu mentioned funny Luke stuff, so I went and skimmed the transcript and this is the one where Luke threatens Kirk over breaking up with (his) Lulu

[mstaken]

Driving Miss Gilmore and French Twist 

[lulu1960]

Bulldogs

Valentine

[mstaken]

How Many Kropogs to Cape Cod
A Vineyard Valentine
Bridesmaids Revisited
Partings
French Twist
Introducing Lorelai Planetarium

 

Driving Miss Gilmore and Go Bulldogs (which would actually have made my top---er, bottom----three!) are now safe, and the next round is open! Vote for the ONE you hate least :) 

[nolieblue]

Kropogs

Bulldogs is my absolute most hated GG episode- but I did like seeing Christopher acting like such a douche.

[Taryn74]

Kropogs

 

Lordie I hate all of these so much.

[lulu1960]

Vineyard

[mstaken]

This is PAINFUL! 

 

Reluctantly, I'll jump on the 'save Kropogs' wagon...but it's killing me to do so! 

[mstaken]

Our amusingly ghastly final five:

 

A Vineyard Valentine
Bridesmaids Revisited
Partings
French Twist
Introducing Lorelai Planetarium

 

Just vote for the one of those five you want to save!
