It it really, you know, 119 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: Paris really throws down the gauntlet on Rory. 120 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 2: Here you're going down and vice versa. 121 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: Vice versa, where it was like, you know, knockout. 122 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 2: Respect was established, and Rory. 123 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: Came back with some really crushing right hands and a 124 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: nice left hook right there and even delivered a knockout 125 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: blow to Tristan on the way out and screaming her 126 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: own Ray Ray. You know, it's like, whoa, yeah, you 127 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: go right. 128 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: And also, you guys would know her more than I do. 129 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 2: But Alexis seems like she is very you know, quiet 130 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: and sweet and as an actress I could only imagine. 131 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 2: But she had it muster up to get it in 132 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: character in that scene. 133 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: It's the only time I've ever seen Alexis like that 134 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: in that state, you know. But she nailed it. I 135 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: mean it really came from, yeah, a real place, you know. 136 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: It was like and he and he had it coming 137 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: to him. I mean, that's smug guy that Chad Michael 138 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: Murray portrayed so well. He really had to coming to him. 139 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: So the writing is so good because the writers though 140 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: when a character, you know, can just light somebody up, 141 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: and that was perfect. It was perfect. 142 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 4: Do they get to become friends later Tristan and Rory. 143 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a there's a moment there at a party 144 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: and he displays some introspective and displays a little humility, 145 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, with her, and there's a there's a recognition there. Yeah, 146 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: but I think I think he quickly reverts back to 147 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: his old son, Yeah, Tristan. So yeah, So then you know, 148 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: we get into this you know, this D getting this 149 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: D drives this episode. This This is a lot of 150 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: Rory and Laurel I and it's all about you know it, 151 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: does she have what it takes to get through the 152 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: curriculum at Chilton and it and it adds this really 153 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: unexpected tension right away to the show. I mean, here's 154 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: a girl who was doing so well and everything's so 155 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: easy for her at Stars Hollow Heights. Then she gets 156 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: into a situation. Yeah, and then she gets into the big 157 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: leagues and everybody can hit a fastball. You know, it's like, oh, 158 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: what do I do now? What were your impressions of this, Ted, 159 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: did you find that I. 160 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 4: See a young girl at the crossroads. My son is 161 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 4: at the same age right now, and there's a crossroads. 162 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 4: You know, are you going to rise to the occasion 163 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 4: of your hopes or are you going to choose the 164 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 4: other path, the safer path? And when once she comes 165 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 4: out to Laura I about it, that's what they talk about, 166 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 4: and Laura I, I'm gonna now, I'm gonna. I'm not 167 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 4: sposed to cry. It's so cool how Laura I supports 168 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 4: her completely and and says, I got your I know 169 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 4: you can do this, but at the same time gives 170 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 4: her that out so that she leaves the choice completely. 171 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 4: The reason why I'm gonna cry is because that's what 172 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 4: i want to do for my son. I want to challenge. 173 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 4: It was absolute best and you're in one of your crossroads. 174 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: You want to take the road less traveled, but it's 175 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 4: scary and and so you want to support if the 176 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 4: person doesn't do that, and with the hope that eventually 177 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 4: they're gonna, you know, on their own figure their own way. 178 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 4: But it's tough. It's tough as a parent to to 179 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 4: let go and and and trust at the same time, 180 00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 4: you know, be there for them. So I thought, look, 181 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 4: I just did that beautifully. 182 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 2: And you felt the support there too, especially when they 183 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 2: studied for the test, you know. And later on in 184 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: this episode you see Lurlai like nope, I'm going to 185 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: hang in there with you and falls asleep and then 186 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: joins Rory at the table, who is asleep, like it's 187 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: just you felt the mother daughter's support in this episode 188 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: for sure. 189 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: How could you not love these two?

Just beautifully done and just 208 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: they were in so many scenes. It's like scene after 209 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: scene after scene with these two.

Upset found out on me 237 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 4: and she wasn't being crazy because there was something to 238 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 4: the risotto that wasn't quite right, and it wasn't her fault. 239 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 2: It wasn't her fault. 240 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 4: It was the wine that was served. Am I right? 241 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 4: That didn't go well with the RESULTA right the wrong? 242 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: He served her a riseling or gave him a riling 243 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: the second time around. I don't know something, but yeah, 244 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: it was the wine. 245 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 4: And then and then in the end, Suki brought the 246 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 4: risotto to uh the gentleman's door, the reviewer's door, to 247 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 4: have him, you know, to rectify the whole situation and 248 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 4: show him, even though he loved everything she did, uh 249 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 4: that that the risotto was good. Uh. It was a 250 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 4: funny scene because I noted that I did not see 251 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 4: the reviewer the whole time, and I was wondering, Yeah, 252 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 4: like they cast the role, so we had an extra 253 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 4: stand there and somebody say the words right. 254 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: And Suki facing the camera not turning to look at Lucian. 255 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: We never saw Lucian, so obviously it wasn't an actor. 256 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: They hired. It was somebody somebody else that filled in, 257 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: and that's how they had to shoot it, you know, 258 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: because they didn't they didn't they didn't want to come 259 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: around and do the coverage on on Suki. They just 260 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: did like, let's just do this as one shot and 261 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: do a couple of different sizes. 262 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 4: I thought there was like a character reason for that 263 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 4: that she wasn't looking and I'm what's going on here? Yeah, 264 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 4: that's cool. 265 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: I didn't you guys that those thoughts didn't even cross 266 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: my brain. I was just like the risotto. So it's 267 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 2: cool that from you guys who are in it, that 268 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 2: you can see what actually or you know, guess what 269 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: actually happened with this guy. 270 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's probably what happened. And again here 271 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: we see Laurel I being, you know, this great friend 272 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: and this great support and tuned with everything that's going 273 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: on in her life and her concerns and and wants 274 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: to make it better. She's always wanting to make it better. 275 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: And that's that's a very nice, warm, cozy relationship she 276 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: has with Suki. And just these these early scenes in 277 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: the kitchen are my favorite. They're just my favorite. I 278 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: just think that the acting is so spectacular and uh, 279 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's all so engaging and it's really 280 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: interesting to see somebody so concerned about And also, these 281 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: are what I'm trying to say is these are people 282 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: that are that want to give their best. They're doing 283 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: their best, and when they feel like they fall in short, 284 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: they take it to heart. Rory getting the d Suki 285 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: getting you know, just an okay review on one, you know, 286 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: a great review, but the risotta was fine. Everybody just 287 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: wanting to do their best. It's it's it's fun to watch, 288 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: it's it's it's heartwarming. Jackson comes in. He forgot Suki's 289 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: porcinis and she didn't even get mad. He tries to 290 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: cheer up and then they call the waiter in. So really, 291 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: the bottom line is that Suki is very bothered by 292 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: Lucian Mills calling her risotto fine, and she takes care 293 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: of it. She just she has to find out where 294 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: where Lucian lives because he did say this is a 295 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: little creepy. She said, like, I don't care, try this 296 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: with this wine boom. How do you want? 297 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 2: I really want? Right? 298 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: But how do you not love Suki? Saint James, these 299 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: characters are irresistible. 300 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 4: That's I think the keys of the show you're touching 301 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 4: on here is that they're all human, right, uh. And 302 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 4: they have their you know, their foible, their their issues 303 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 4: so to speak, but they they all are good people 304 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 4: that are good to each other. And some people talk 305 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 4: about the show with me is there it's their comfort food, 306 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 4: you know, visual comfort food. And it's because you're seeing humans, 307 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 4: you know, do life well. And so it's a little 308 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 4: you know, elevated reality. But don't we want to see that? 309 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,959 Speaker 4: Don't we want that for our life? We see quirky, 310 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 4: goofy and fallible people that are good at the core, it's. 311 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: Right, trying to be the best versions of themselves, you know, 312 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: trying to do their day as best they can possibly 313 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: do it. Right. This small town vibe is I'm accountable. 314 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to do the best I can and if 315 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: I screw up, I'm going to be really sorry. 316 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 4: Something else there with with the acting early on in 317 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 4: a show, to have seamless acting like that, because I'm 318 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 4: not seeing I'm used to seeing, you know, with one 319 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,719 Speaker 4: character or another. Some tells that they're acting right, you 320 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 4: see it. You're like, oh, okay, there's a moment when 321 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: they didn't quite get their line right or where they 322 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: just didn't really understand the moment fully. But it's seamless 323 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 4: and beautiful. So that pulls your right in because you 324 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 4: feel like you're with real people. 325 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,959 Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, I love that. 326 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh true. It's such a lighthearted comedy and I 327 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 1: feel I've said this a couple of times. I think 328 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,959 Speaker 1: that's how it operates best and keeping it light and 329 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: airy and breezy and quick and funny, and then there's 330 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: some intense stuff along the way, but not too much, 331 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: you know, but it's like relatable real world stuff or 332 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: you know, you can be you know, very concerned about 333 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: your child. I mean, this is this is universal. Everybody 334 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: has felt this. That's a parent, right This this terror 335 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: that that their child isn't going to do well enough 336 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 1: or you know, they're gonna and the fear is of 337 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: how that's how your child's going to feel about themselves 338 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: and your your job as a parent and not to 339 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: go too overboard with trying to be overly protective, but 340 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: still it's like toughest job in the world, and uh 341 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: to regulate that and to balance that out for the 342 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: for the benefit of your child. To let them figure 343 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: it out, you know, to let them, but I mean, 344 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: you know, throw in when you can, like Lorelei, does 345 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,239 Speaker 1: you know what. Let's go back to when lorele I 346 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: came in in the B fifty two's shirt and came 347 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: in late to the meetings, like Mom's late and then 348 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: Rory's late for the test. So I thought one of 349 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: the I think Laura Graham is the best thing to 350 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 1: happen to television comedy acting since luci Oeball. I have 351 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: to put her up there on the pantheon of great 352 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: television actresses or just great actresses overall, because the things 353 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: that she's doing and the effortless awkwardness, and that's right, 354 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: the attraction she has to Max Medina as she comes 355 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: in late. It's just it's just a masterclass in in 356 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: in comedic acting. I mean not she's not laying it 357 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,959 Speaker 1: on too thick anywhere. Everythink's just the transitions are really fast, 358 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: they're seamless. Everything's very smooth. 359 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: Can I say one thing about about what you're saying though? 360 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: It's sure? Sure? 361 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: So I remember when I watched this this for this 362 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,479 Speaker 2: episode for the first time, I was like, oh my gosh, 363 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 2: Lorelai and Max Medina. This is the thing, YadA, YadA, YadA. 364 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 2: But watching this episode back twice, Lorlay still is dropping 365 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: hints with Luke. You still see that like connection when 366 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 2: they have a scene together. And now that I know 367 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: what happens and I'm watching this again, I'm like, uh duh, 368 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 2: it's there all along. Like even though she st you know, 369 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 2: goes off the path for a second with Max Medena 370 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 2: and then later on with her other boyfriends, it's still 371 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: Luke the whole time. And that's the one thing I 372 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 2: noticed in this episode. You still see it even though 373 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 2: Max Medina is a distraction. 374 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 4: I think you're projecting because like us, you just curmudgeon guy. 375 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 4: You know, he's not going to give an inch. See 376 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 4: you know where it's going. Yeah you're looking or maybe no. 377 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 2: I guess I guess I am looking for it. But 378 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: you still just see it. Like even in the diner scenes, 379 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 2: she just the way she looks at Luke is not 380 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 2: like the way she looks at other characters in the show. 381 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 4: Well, Scott Patterson having a little crash. I don't know. 382 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 1: I love it, man, I was just happy to be there. Yeah, 383 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: all right, this this is good. 384 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 4: You weren't series regular at first, right. 385 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, just when I shot the pilot, I was 386 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: just a guest star one episode. 387 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, realized you're in it big time. 388 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: That's uh, well, I've told you know, I'll tell the 389 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: story briefly again. My my manager went to uh Gampolone 390 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: and said, we just go to the network and get 391 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: him a six year deal, please, you know, if you 392 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: want them. The chemistry's really good, pilot's really good. These 393 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: guys belong together, you know, they do, go get him 394 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:55,479 Speaker 1: a deal, and he did nice. Yeah, she really pushed him. 395 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: She was she was like, you know, I think it 396 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: was like a budgetary they didn't want They had a lot, 397 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: they had a big cast. You know, they're gonna the show. 398 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: The show becomes a hit, it becomes a problem for 399 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: them because they got to have to pay all these people, 400 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, that kind of thing. So they have budgetary 401 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: concerns and they maybe you know, and they did that 402 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: with Rory's boyfriend, with Milo, and and with Chad and 403 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: with Jared. They were all on. I mean, they were 404 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,959 Speaker 1: like series regular for a year or or two years, 405 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: and then their representatives are like, well, we don't want 406 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: to sign a six year deal because these are young 407 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: guys with big futures and you know they're not going 408 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: to be the lead of this show. We think these 409 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: guys are leading man material, and you know their reps 410 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: were right because they all turned out to have big careers, 411 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: Matt and all those guys. Uh so, yeah, so they're 412 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: just trying to keep the budgets down. You know, Let's 413 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: let's see if we can get four episodes out of 414 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 1: this guy, and then we'll off from four more and 415 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: we'll pay him that. We'll pay him the per episode rate, 416 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: which is, you know, a lot less than being a 417 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: series regular. 418 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 2: Right. 419 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: So, but I mean, you know, a great manager at 420 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: the time, and we got a six year deal, which 421 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: is change changed my life.

And I mean, 448 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: this is what she ran away from and then but 449 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: now this is literally what she ran away from sixteen 450 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: years ago, and now she's back in it, and she's 451 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: back in it with her parents.

She's going 497 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: to her friend's house to get support. 498 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: And you also saw that too in the beginning when 499 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 2: she when Rory's driving to school and she calls Lane, 500 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 2: and Lane's in her closet and she and she's like, oh, 501 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: let me check, and she opens up her closet and 502 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 2: that's like the first time you see like, oh, she 503 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 2: like hides her real self at home, you know, like 504 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: her closet is full of all these neon lights. And 505 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 2: then she opens up her closet and it's her boring bedroom. Right, 506 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: So that's like the first glimpse you get of Lane 507 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 2: being different in hiding really who she is, right. 508 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 4: I mean, she could have been sitting on our front 509 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 4: front porch and that's it. We knew. We learned nothing 510 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 4: new about Lane. Yeah, right, it's written that way. It's 511 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 4: awesome weaving, God said, weaving all this information into the story. 512 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: Isn't it great? 513 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 2: Hell? 514 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: Amy does that amazing? And you root for Lane because 515 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: she's she's just sort of accepted who her mother is 516 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: and what her life is living with her mother. But 517 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: she figured out a way to not go crazy, you know, 518 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: and she doesn't have to be above board about it, 519 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: because it's like, Mom, I'm doing this. I'm gonna sit 520 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: in my cool plush you know, purple velvet room with 521 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: a strobe light and just chill man, you know, and 522 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: you'll love to see it. And now we we go 523 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: to Luke's and Rory's upset, you know, she's she's struggling 524 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: to keep up the pace at Chilt and we haven't 525 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: seen Rory like this at all. It's good that they're 526 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: giving her this giant obstacle to overcome Paris, those girls 527 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: at that school, the school. 528 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 2: Also the fact that she can't like walk all over 529 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,479 Speaker 2: the school like she's used to. You know, they're like, no, 530 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 2: we got very strict rules in line and if you 531 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 2: can't adhere to them, and if you can't level up, 532 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 2: then sorry, you fall behind. 533 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 3: No. 534 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: I was devastating speech that the principal came to Laura, 535 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: maybe she shouldn't be here, She don't have to be here. 536 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: Maybe she doesn't have to go to Harvard. Maybe she shouldn't. 537 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: I mean those are devastating. I mean talk about reverse 538 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: psychology and talk about staying cool under fire. Because you know, Laura, 539 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: I like, well. 540 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 2: What would you do if somebody told you that about 541 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 2: your kids? 542 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 4: Ted? 543 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: You don't know this, but my son is one years old, 544 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 2: so I haven't gotten into that like that level yet. 545 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 2: But Scott, your kids in school, and Ted, I'm assuming 546 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 2: yours are too. Like if somebody told you that about 547 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: your kid, I probably would unleash Mama Bear and the 548 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 2: school would burn down. Like I wouldn't know how to handle. 549 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 4: That station about my son last year, his junior year 550 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: in the Prince with the principal. It was a bit 551 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 4: reversed because nowadays the public schools are just too soft 552 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 4: and this is a school with a good reputation, and 553 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 4: we're both Laurie and I are both you got to 554 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 4: ratchet it up here this kid and he's like, no, 555 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,719 Speaker 4: he's a good kid. So it's like a backwards conversation 556 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 4: compared to what they were having on the episode. Come on, 557 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 4: kick him in the butt. He needs a fire under 558 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 4: his ass. 559 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: All right, right, how about you. 560 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 2: Scott, how would you handle conversation like that at school. 561 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: You had a smarty pants too, So smarty pants of 562 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 2: a kid. 563 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 3: You know. 564 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: The only time I ever went into his elementary school 565 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: principal's office was during you know, it was like right 566 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: after the lockdowns ended, and the kids were really aggressive 567 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: coming out of COVID, like those those kids were super 568 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: aggressive coming out of COVID. So there was a lot 569 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: of bullying and a lot of just wild behavior going on, 570 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: and and you know, Nick was on the other end 571 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: of some of that, and so we had some I 572 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: had some conversations with the teachers, but I think a 573 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: lot of parents did with with uh that school, and 574 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: they solved it pretty pretty quickly. Yeah, they they they 575 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: solved it very very quickly because it was out of 576 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: control coming out of COVID. And I think I took 577 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: everybody by surprise. I mean, nobody could have could have 578 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: predicted how children would come out of COVID and back 579 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: into a social situation. I mean it was just explosive situation. Yeah, 580 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: kids were just like going they were climbing walls with aggression, 581 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: and it was it was bad. It was bad. But 582 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: you know, it calmed down pretty quickly and they actually 583 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: had to them and and and this is like, you know, 584 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: this isn't a a this is a really really great school. 585 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: Reputation of the school is impeccable. But they had some challenges, 586 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, and I think a lot of parents went 587 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: in and helped out. You know. I think I think 588 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: we we sort of put the pedal of the metal, 589 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: as it were. It's like, you know, yeah, we're you know, 590 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: we're not going to tolerate this, and and they responded, 591 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: to their credit, they really responded. And now it's just 592 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: like it's a really nurturing, thriving environment for all the kids. 593 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: Uh COVID. COVID just ripped up a lot of man, 594 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: I mean all over the country and all over the world, 595 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, really really just affected people. So adversely, 596 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: you know. So that's that's but we have have been 597 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,800 Speaker 1: back in since, you know, we're just we go on 598 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 1: every once in a while and they give us more 599 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: awards for him. 600 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 2: So I guess you don't want to be in the 601 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 2: school in your kid's principal office, like you'd rather not 602 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 2: stay outside. 603 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't want to go in. There's no reason. 604 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 2: I feel like we wouldn't be doing our job in 605 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 2: this episode if we did not discuss the deer of 606 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 2: it all. That is what the title of the episode is. 607 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 2: I laughed out loud seeing that scene again, seeing the 608 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: deer just run into good Rory's car, and she's like, 609 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 2: a deer hit me, and everyone's like, you hit a 610 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 2: deer and she's like, no, the deer hit me. I 611 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 2: was laughing so much, so funny. 612 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: What'd you think, ted? It didn't hit me. It wasn't 613 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: a big comedy moment for me. It was just like 614 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: kind of a chuckle, unexpected, last thing you expected. 615 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 4: I like shaing hit by a deer over and over again, 616 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 4: people having a reaction to that, people like, no, you 617 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 4: got it wrong, hit you because no one gets hit 618 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,919 Speaker 4: by a deer. I like like that long that joke 619 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 4: that kept playing over and over again. But at the 620 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 4: moment itself, I was terrified. 621 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: Pretty hard hit. I mean she got nail and a 622 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: crunch that door. Pretty good funny scene. I mean she 623 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: did it. She did a great job acting wise with 624 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: the physical comedy part of it's trying to take her 625 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 1: her her her I guess her pajama bottoms off because 626 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: she had her her chilting uniform on, and then running 627 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: back the car, and you know, the pink pajama bottoms 628 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: are flying around on her foot because they're still stuck 629 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 1: on her foot. So good, good visuals, you know, funny stuff. 630 00:36:55,400 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 1: You know, if shows, if plot emanates from character, this 631 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: show really adheres to that very wise writing advice, you know, 632 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: because when you try to plot something out without the 633 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: consideration of character first, you're in big trouble, big trouble. 634 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: And that's why you get these wooden films and these 635 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: really wooden, horrible TV shows. The ones that really resonate 636 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: have the great characters, and the great character characters you 637 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: follow them around. They make the plot happen. They make 638 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 1: the story happen. And that's exactly you know, you pick 639 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: a couple of really powerful universal themes and then you 640 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 1: have these great characters take you through it. And that's 641 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,439 Speaker 1: what we have. So the setup is so beautiful here. 642 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: We know we have a cast of characters. We know 643 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: we have these powerful characters and Lorelei and Rory and 644 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: Suki uh and that we haven't even met really Luke 645 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: very much yet, and we really haven't met Taylor, and 646 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: you know all these other characters that are you know, 647 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: not the main part of it. But you know, kind 648 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: of important aspects of it. But we have we have 649 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: a nice core group of characters here that I think 650 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: we feel very comfortable with and enjoy their company, and 651 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: we think they're kind of funny and smart and heartwarming 652 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: and all that good stuff, which is what you need 653 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: for something like that. 654 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,760 Speaker 4: Yes, a good point. 655 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: You know, after episode four, we're we're in a really comfortable, 656 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 1: good place. We've got characters that we love, and we've 657 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: got all of this conflict to look forward to. The 658 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: questions are is Rory going to make it?

Ted, what what do 671 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: you find? What are you finding about this series so far? 672 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 4: I have to go back to the crossroads that Rory 673 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 4: is facing. By the end of the episode, she resolved 674 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 4: that she's going to hang in there, and again as 675 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 4: a as a father, just this proud moment that this 676 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 4: this girl has come to the conclusion on her own. 677 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 1: Now mm hmmmm hmmm. 678 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,919 Speaker 4: Pick it out and I'm going to fight. I'm going 679 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 4: to fight it out and I'm going to take the 680 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 4: road less traveled and proud uh of Rory for doing that. Yeah, 681 00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 4: and it's going to hurt and it's going to be 682 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 4: art and then she can make up in Max's class. 683 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 4: The fact she did wasn't able to take the test, 684 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 4: but the makeup is not going to be easy. I 685 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 4: just pull out at this point, but she's like, she's 686 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 4: gonna stick it out. 687 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 3: Yeah. 688 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: That's a really nice scene when they went and looked 689 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: for the deer at the end to say if it 690 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,919 Speaker 1: was okay, but they had that they had that nice talk, 691 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: and it further establishes Lorelai as like this supreme, sensitive, nurturing, 692 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: smart mom right. She gives Rory the power to make 693 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: a choice whether to go back to Stars Hollow High 694 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 1: because she wouldn't have a problem with it, you know, 695 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: or stick it out and just perfect and you know, 696 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: not playing games with her daughter, but you know, psychologically, 697 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: but making her perhaps leading her in one direction where 698 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: she knows she doesn't want to give up just yet. 699 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 1: You know, great scene, great scene. You just you just 700 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: keep falling in love with the characters, and uh, this 701 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: is a very very powerful relationship with These are powerful portrayals, 702 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: I agree. 703 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 2: Oh no pun intended this point. 704 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: It's just it's just at this point, you're just like 705 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: you're enthralled with this series, and it's you know, for 706 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: a guy, it's not really like the kind of thing 707 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: that honestly that I have ever watched or whatever watch. 708 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm in the show and I'm watching 709 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: these episodes and I just see how darn good it is, 710 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: and uh, it's kind of magical. And you and and 711 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,359 Speaker 1: and people are celebrating the show still twenty four years 712 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: later and turning to this show as they're they're their 713 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 1: their support pet or their their comfort animal or their 714 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: comfort show or come for food, whatever you want. It 715 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 1: It serves many different purposes for people, but support and lightness. Yeah, Ted, I. 716 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:11,919 Speaker 4: Think one of the keys is what you talked about 717 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 4: earlier too. There's plenty of it. It's all coming together. 718 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,479 Speaker 4: But the writing. The characters don't just say a joke 719 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 4: like in crappy sitcoms. It doesn't matter who says the 720 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 4: joke and which portrays the character. It doesn't matter if 721 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,440 Speaker 4: it betrays the character that they say. It matters that 722 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 4: the joke gets out there. But Amy, all the humor 723 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 4: comes out of the characters. She and Dan Sorry it is. 724 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 4: Any joke that comes out of them is from who 725 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,919 Speaker 4: they are and so, and it's believable, and it also 726 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 4: helps develop the character rather than just develop another joke. 727 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: Right, everything's organic. It's like they're great dramatists. They write 728 00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: great dramas, They write great situations packed with tension and conflict, 729 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: and then they challenge themselves, Let's see how funny we 730 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 1: can make this without it distracting from what we're trying 731 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 1: to say here, you know what I mean. 732 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 3: And they always do it. 733 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: They always do it so well with some all this 734 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: quick humor and quippi stuff. That's why the speed, Because 735 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 1: we've got eighty pages. Of wonderfulness here for you when 736 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: normally you get fifty five or sixty in an hour show, 737 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to talk real fast so we 738 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,839 Speaker 1: can get to the jokes, so the jokes work right faster. 739 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 4: You see these quippie jokes, the funnier they are. 740 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 1: It's a weird right, right. And I don't think they 741 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 1: thought we need to do this so fast and have 742 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 1: it so dense with humor and cultural references. Is nobody's 743 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: going to get some of the people will get that 744 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to go back and watch it again. 745 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: I don't think that was their intention, right, but that's 746 00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: the way it turned out. I don't think they sat 747 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: around and said, how do we make a show that's 748 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: so addictive that twenty four yearly years later people are 749 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,720 Speaker 1: having it, you know, just on a loop in their homes, 750 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 1: you know, which is what happened. So anyway, great job, 751 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: great job. Final thoughts A plus, yeah, A plus. 752 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 4: So far minute for the long haul? 753 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just four delightful episodes. I think this is 754 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,320 Speaker 1: you know, this is when we started reading all of 755 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: these glowing reviews in the Hollywood Reporter and The Bride, 756 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,839 Speaker 1: and I think Deadline Hollywood and they were talking about 757 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: this very special show. I mean the reviews were just 758 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,919 Speaker 1: there was reviews coming in after the pilot that were off, 759 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: off the chain, great, and we're all real excited about it, 760 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: and they just kept coming. And I can see why 761 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: now because this because remember it was the year two thousand, 762 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: you know, it really wasn't There wasn't a lot of 763 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 1: stuff on TV like this. This really stood out. And 764 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: I think and I see a lot of shows now 765 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: that are filled with high speed dialogue, and I think 766 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 1: this might have kicked off and inspired a whole generation 767 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 1: of writers, because I think a lot of the people 768 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 1: that are that we're seeing on Netflix now, these these 769 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,839 Speaker 1: great writers. I mean, there's some great shows out there now. 770 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 1: You know, I was watching The Diplomat last night and 771 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:45,720 Speaker 1: I'd never seen it before. It blew mots my mind 772 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: how good this is. And other shows, you know, the 773 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 1: Morning Show, Fantastic, the the Soccer thing, that comedy with 774 00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 1: what's his name, Uh yeah, Ted, Ted Lasso. I mean 775 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: just there's all this terrific writing going, all this terrific stuff, 776 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 1: and I think some of it it feels like it 777 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: came from Dan and Amy. I think they inspired a 778 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 1: generation of very gifted writing students in college. You know, 779 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: I think a lot of if you interview a lot 780 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: of these people and they go on to win these 781 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:26,800 Speaker 1: big awards and say, well, when I was in college, 782 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: or when I was in high school or junior high, 783 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: I was obsessed with Gilmore Girls, and I just thought 784 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 1: this writing is so fantastic, and that's what made me 785 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,399 Speaker 1: want to be right for television to write for a movie. 786 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 3: I think you're gonna hear. 787 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna hear a lot of that. 788 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 4: If you're a writer, you can imagine the rhythm is 789 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 4: so consistent and so there. Just by watching it as 790 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 4: a writer, you absorb that rhythm and so it's going 791 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 4: to come out of you in your writing. 792 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 3: Right. 793 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think they they cracked open the ceiling. I 794 00:46:55,080 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 1: think Amy and really they they did something that if 795 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:03,839 Speaker 1: it had been done before, because I know they were 796 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 1: inspired by old movies, uh you know, from the forties, 797 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: but they just did it in a fresh new way 798 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 1: that it was like this this iteration of this style 799 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: of writing that no one had really seen before in 800 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 1: these situations. And they've seen them in the forties style 801 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 1: movie situations, but not not like this. 802 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 4: It's a Denique style, Yeah, basically amalgamation of different styles, 803 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 4: but it's their own styles. So naturally they stood out 804 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,440 Speaker 4: and it's good, right, and they're they're terrific writers, so 805 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 4: it was considered right. 806 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,720 Speaker 1: They they they they mashed up a couple of different styles, 807 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: and we're going to set it in this this beautiful 808 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,360 Speaker 1: little town and make it a family friendly show and 809 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 1: make it about community. But we're going to have all 810 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 1: this artistic license with the writing and the humor and 811 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: the sarcasm and the snippiness, all this stuff through Lorla. 812 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:03,439 Speaker 3: I mean, what a role. 813 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Lauren Graham, what a role? It was? The 814 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,800 Speaker 1: role of a lifetime. Is It's like the role of 815 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: that era, right, It's the role.
