Welcome, Alina Ray! And thank you so much for breaking us free of our tie :) 

 

Our fabulous final three: 

 

Lazy-Hazy-Crazy Days
They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?
Those Are Strings, Pinocchio

Link to comment

I'm in pain! I love both of these episodes to a truly ridiculous degree: They're both two of my five all-time favorites of the entire series. So this is a Sophie's Choice-esque level of torture for me, but I'll sadly vote against They Shoot Gilmores and opt to save TAS,P, which is just such a special hour of TV for me.

My votes:

 

Ted Koppel - For some reason this whole episode just bugs...I can never get into it.

Girls in Bikinis - Same thing, even though there are some great Paris moments...I just don't care for it.

Last Week Fights - The wedding, the stuff with Dean and Jess...except for Luke and Lorelai dancing, I just...can't.

I'm so glad I'm not alone! Lorelai's a brat on her date with Jason, Emily is infuriating even by Emily's standards, and somehow the humor doesn't work for me as well as I want it to. 

 

There are a surprising number if S4 episodes I could very happily live without despite really liking the season as a whole, but I'll go with:

 

Ted Koppel's Big Night Out

Girls in Bikinis (I love a couple of the Paris/Rory scenes...I range from meh to ugh on the rest. Plus, this is when Dean came back into our lives yet again! ARGH!) 

Tick Tick Tick...

Fundamental

 

Hee--Fundamental is definitely one of my most rewatched, comfort food-esque favorites! 

 

And I've long since given up trying to figure out why I love Die Jerk, but I do :) 

 

Overall, it's interesting to remember how strongly I prefer the first half of S4 to the second half.

Having a hard time because...1) S4 is my favorite, 2)my memory is a little fuzzy on what happens in each episode, and 3)I often work off others' votes when I come in later in a round...but I look at the votes and think I love all of them!

Festival of Living Art

Clamor/Clangor

Nanny and the Professor (yeah, this one I could've voted for last round)

I enjoy Festival too. Sookie wanting to jiggle out the baby is so cute in a 'poor Sookie' kind of way.

The only thing I really remember about Nanny and the Professor is Michel rolling 'Truman' I mean Davy under the bed.

But have I mentioned I like season 4 the best? I think there is something to love in every episode.

I think I'd love S4 a lot more if it weren't for the unwelcome return of Dean and the (for me!) even more unwelcome arrival of Liz and TJ :) It's definitely a great season, though---you guys know I adore Digger, the Eily Richard stuff is really well done, and suffice it to say I far prefer Rory's adjusting-to-Yale experiences in S4 than S5!

Die Jerk has...well, died (*waves a sad farewell*) and Afterboom has exploded, but we have a tie between In the Clamor and the Clangor and Last Week Fights, This Week Tights for that thirs elimination spot. You know the drill! 

 

My tiebreaker vote: LWF, TWT

Nanny, A Family Matter and (*sniff*) Hobbit, (which is one of my 3-4 favorites of the season!) have all been eliminated. The next round is open!

We're down to voting against just two.

Nag Hammadi  

Last Week Fights

There are parts of AAtR I'm not crazy about, but I haven't voted against it yet purely because the scene where Emily shows up at the CS is one of my very favorite Emily/Lorelai scenes of the series. This one is already very tough!
