The Great Stink!

NOTE: This post contains some spoilers.

Good morning all. I've been busy with stuff, as usual, but I'm not going to let it get in my way of typing out some of my thoughts on Tuesday's episode of GG.

Let me begin by confirming what most of you already know...The Great Stink was a filler episode. For those of you out there who don't know what that exactly means, a filler episode is necessary to set up characters and storylines important to upcoming episodes. In the case of this episode, The Great Stink is a step leading to what all viewers already know -- Lorelai and Chris in Paris with marriage knocking on their hotel room door.

Alright. To get the ball rolling, here are some tidbits from the episode. Note, my opinions are in italics.

- Logan shows up for a surprise visit, which includes, but is not limited to a romantic dinner under the stars on the roof of the apartment. And Rory's reaction is steller. Glee with a side of jumpy. But what was most entertaining to see was the couple's end scene, where Rory rambles on and on just to let Logan sum up her feelings with his five-studded statement..."I miss you, too, Ace." I must say that my feelings for the boy Huntz is changing. Now, I don't know if it is on account of the distance I exhibited over the course of the summer or if my seven year change is upon me, but I'm hoping that things will settle down soon. I hate having gooey feelings in any respect for Logan.

- Sherry and Gigi. I'm glad to see that these two characters aren't being written off. I love that they're in play, even if we don't get to see them. Plus, I'm so ecstatic that DR has choosen, as far as I can tell, not to let Sherry or Gigi become a major bump in the road for Lorelai. I think I might boycot the show if he decides to make Lorelai jealous, afraid or worried about Sherry getting between her and Chris.

- Lorelai and Chris. Oh, how happy I am, especially concerning Lorelai and Sookie's talk about Lorelai talking to Chris, but talking to Luke in her head. I'm glad that the writers are seperating the men, and that they are showing how Chris is the one who really accepts Lorelai because he is the ONLY one who knows all of her. Sorry L/L fans, but this is clearly the case. Chris might have gotten angry with Lor's opinion, but he considered it, which is more than I can say for Luke.

- Okay. One last thing. How great was the end of the episode? Chris and Lorelai in the front with daughter Rory in the backseat. It was one of the great highlights of the episode, in my opinion. It allowed for a moment of how things could be for the Gilmore girls. Rory can get what she's always wanted...her mom and dad together. And Lorelai can be with the father of her kid. I'd also like to add...I almost died when Chris was shaking his head to the music.
