This was so fucking dumb. High school drop-outs can do journalism. It's one of the jobs you get into when you fail at everything else in life.
Did the writers just not know?

My guess is Amy Sherman-Palladino was insecure because she wrote measly fiction instead of super real and serious business like journalists do, so she thought that was an admirable career.

As for why Rory was a total failure in every way in the Netflix thing, I have no idea.

Libs like to huff their own facts and those of their fellow do nothings like journalists and HR

anon, they're just mouthpieces for whatever shareholder owns them lmao

>>213783623
I think anon was sarcastic

>>213783623
1. You quoted the wrong post.
2. I used the hyperbolic phrase "super real and serious" to obviously imply the opposite.

QED: You are a dumb faggot.

>>213783683
Didn't ask for your opinion retard

Was it just because the show was pre/early internet and journalists were still somewhat respected because of gatekeeping at the major newspapers?

>>213783359 (OP)
The amount of books she read would make her qualified to teach in one of those universities.

>>213783546
>As for why Rory was a total failure in every way in the Netflix thing
I mean it was already there in the show.
She was a very smart girl, in a way that she could better understand and retain book knowledge than her mother, but in every other regard she was her mother, including being in danger of becoming a teenage mom.
That she would, being left on her own devices and not being tardwrangled by an entire town, do dumb shit, was to be expected.

>>213783359 (OP)
Old money upper class New England families have a different opinion of the prestige and status of journalists than incel Nazi chuds like (you) do

>>213783359 (OP)
Today she'd probably be reduced to writing lists for Buzzfeed. No profession has seen such a sharp decline in credibility as journalism has in the online age.

Started watching this 2 days ago on my quest to continue scraping the bottom of the barrel.
They talk annoyingly fast like modern shit. So many characters meant to be obnoxious.
Best joke is the mother only having days of the week underwear going up to Thursday.

>>213783359 (OP)
Rory was never going to amount to much.

>>213784019
Yeah that's all true, and she had an unhealthy friend-like relationship with her one present parent as well. But if you were writing this story over years where you constantly romanticize this town and this lifestyle and make everything revolve around her future, wouldn't you look for a way to break the cycle so any of it matters? It just seemed so fuckin dour.

>>213784227
I guess it was either "We stick with the formula to rake in moniez" or "I'm a woman and doing dumb shit and being a whore is empowering" or something like that.

Alexis Bledel in Sin City desu

>>213784164
Yeah, I wouldn't outright recommend it to anyone. It's just one of the less stupid shows that my wife compulsively binged.

>>213783820
Journalism was respected before 9/11. It was only after Obama changed the law prohibiting using propaganda internally on Americans in 2012 that CNN became supermarket tabloid trash tier.
It was always propaganda like tv and film of course, people were just more naive.

>>213784164
>They talk annoyingly fast like modern shit. So many characters meant to be obnoxious.
It was pretty influential on current day show slop. Women, and woman writers especially, love this show.

Forgoing the eternal status quo as a comedy/sitcom show was a new thing. Producers at the time preferred shows where you could air any episode out of order and it still made sense. Of course now in streaming times every show has overarching plots.

>>213784164
What happens friday?

>>213784498
Yeah, this. Also they sometimes reference actual kino in their annoying ass quippy dialogue, so I give them points for that.

They definitely set her up as a lesbian love interest for Rory right?
In Chilton she basically behaves like a female Tristan. They even did that Romeo and Juliet thing, but chickened out on showing a female-on-female kiss, until a few seasons later during that spring break thing.

>>213784515
She's a slut so she doesn't need the other days.

Journalism is the #1 way that they feed the general population carefully crafted lies to keep them absolutely confused. Hollywood is #2, and there are many Hollywood productions designed specifically to make journalists seem absolutely honorable and upright and without moral or character faults whatsoever. Crack the journalism nut, and the whole shell game falls apart.

>>213784665
Why do I recognize Tristan, what else was he in?

>>213784756
Schooling is #1.

>>213784515
They were claimed by men she whored around with as trophies, one would assume, so she doesn't own them anymore.

He was in some meh early-2000s movies like Freaky Friday, A Cinderella Story and the House of Wax remake.

>>213784813
Well blame my shitty schooling, I forgot about schooling. Okay journalism and the "news" is #2. If people only knew how much fake shit gets sold as real every single day they would burn down Washington DC and every other major capital in the world.

She would stink up Luke's Diner.

That's even three tiers below Gilrmore Girls in terms of teenage girl slop

This entire show is about women self-sabotaging because they are too emotional

>>213784515
She goes nopan and wears a short skirt.

>>213783359 (OP)
She should have died on that boat

>>213783359 (OP)
>a writer thinks that being a writer is the best job in the world
No shit
You need to realise that Hollywood writers are fucking dorks living out revenge fantasies

Rory is a massive cunt. Stopped watching after 3 seasons I couldn't stand her anymore. Paris is best girl.

>>213783359 (OP)
This was back when journalism was still thought to have some degree of prestige attached to it
Also she chose the wrong guy

>>213786407

She never chose any right guy, anon

I own all the DVDs. God I fucking wish I could move to Stars Hollow and creampie Lorelai and Rory on a daily basis.

>>213783359 (OP)
Its a Rory finds Lorelai's anal beads episode

>>213786600
It's a Lorelai finds Rory's kinbaku rig episode

>>213786482
Jess was a piece of shit

Luke should have dated Rory just to spite Lorelai. And also for the tite teen pussy.

>>213786600
Hey, they share everything
But I hate the episodes where Kirk steals their underwear and sells it on the internet and then it turns the inhabitants of Stars Hollow all bought a pair
