The quirky world of Stars Hollow and the incredible relationship of the Gilmore Girls—mother Lorelai and daughter Rory are best friends—continues to engage viewers after seven seasons, with its lightning-fast dialogue, dry wit, and unusual take on family relations. In this satirical yet sensitive collection of essays, leading writers weigh in on how this unique show has successfully broken the teenage-sitcom mold and gained viewers of all ages. Addressing questions such as What are the risks of having your mother be your best friend? How is Gilmore Girls anti-family, at least in the traditional sense? and What’s a male viewer to do when he finds both mother and daughter attractive? this anthology also looks at how the characters are shaped by the pop culture they consume and how prevalent a feeling of class consciousness is within the series.

It is a credit to Rory that she has not succumbed to the urge to knock all their heads together – though one wonders if it might be worthwhile.

Jennifer Crusie: Coffee at Luke's An Unauthorized Gilmore Girls Gabfest
Paris and Rory challenge each other, something that is missing from the other relationships they have. Dean was awed by Rory's intelligence, and he supported her but he couldn't push her. Jess was much more Rory's intellectual equal, but he was too unpredictable and emotionally distant. Logan has arguably been the most compatible of Rory's boyfriends, but if anyone has been challenged in that relationship, it's him. Paris dates even less than Rory, going out with Asher Flemming, who she worshipped without question, and Doyle, who simply bends to her will.
Imagine what could happen if Paris and Rory put their differences aside, agreed to stop competing, and managed to be supportive of each other at the same time.
