And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It is Season 4. Huh.

So it is. Well, that's what I get for only watching summer repeats for the first three.

Jane's listed as a co-producer, so hopefully she'll be writing a lot. But, given how disappointing this season has been, I'd rather have her on the O.C.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

her stupidity about her parents and particularly her mother is just grating. I knew that she was going to fuss about the decorator having worked with her mother and it's so incredibly stupid.

After 3 seasons, I was hoping for SOME progress. I think that's why I wasn't feeling the love last night. No progress on the Lorelai-Rory co-dependence, no progress on the Emily-Lorelai stubbornness. It might as well still be the first season.

Although Michel has hair, which I'm really digging.

And, again, Sookie = pretty.

It's a remora, dimwit.

For a minute that storyline worked, because when one has a mother who enjoys the attack, you don't want any secret leaking of information. But then it did seem to get obsessive, and turn into just another thing for Lorelai and Emily to fight over. And Traci Lords' character seemed that she had no problem making the situation work for her. She could be the Mata Hari of interior decorators.

There has been progress, but now, with the inn, Lorelai's regressed to "Doing something new! Must do it ALL BY MYSELF WITHOUT MOTHER!" mode. It's annoying, but I don't think it's out of character.

I think they've also had a set back in that Rory's starting Yale is a bit like when Rory started Chilton - both times Lorelai needed her parents' money to get her into the school, so she's feeling weakened and powerless and wants as much control over other things as she can get.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I fast-forwarded through an awful lot of last night's GG. Paused for the byplay during Casablanca, though. Mmmm, Luke.

Yes, I'm shallow. Don't hold it against me.

And yes, the Emily-Lorelai relationship really pisses me off.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I just want to go all Hec on her head and give her a nice pixie cut - she's got the features for it, and it'd cover up some of the forehead.

Such a good instinct.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

R.E.M. appears to have sold their souls to Smallville. How odd.

Shit, did Chris Elliot miss a payment?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I get it. REM, band. REM, rapid eye movement during sleep.

Please, tell me that wasn't the connection.
