Gilmore Girls Elimination Game

junienmomo · July 4, 2016

8 is a key moment in Lorelai's life, when she realizes she does have a special relationship with Luke. Keep 8, let 26 rest in second place.

Kohola3 · July 4, 2016

8. 26 was such a tender moment, probably the best we ever saw with the senior Gilmores. And a sentiment that many of us of a certain age appreciate.

Kohola swayed me, I'll go against 8 and try to save 26.

Kohola3 · July 4, 2016

Awww, shucks. If only I were that persuasive when asking for a raise.

8 The show is not about Luke and Lorelai.

12 and 26 are the same scene.

Not sure if 6 and 18 are basically the same scene.

Edited July 4, 2016 by lulu1960

amensisterfriend · July 5, 2016

Thanks, lulu! I combined 12/26 and 6/18. I also added a couple of my own but can't shake the feeling that we're still missing some sweet moments from my favorite season :) Since it's July 4th, maybe we should keep nominations open and start the voting tomorrow...?

Kohola3 · July 5, 2016
