Lorelai may have ditched the Audi in Marseilles, but Jackson has yet to ditch some needy Stars Hollow residents...and we've yet to ditch our for love the Bourne series! We love the fights with random objects, awesome female characters, and the Matt Damon of it all in this '00s action spy trilogy, but what the hey does it have in common with Gilmore Girls? We investigate the books that inspired the movies, where these flicks rank in the history of spy movies, and whether Jason Bourne even ditched an Audi in Marseilles.

What does this movie have to say about female friendships? What did we think of THAT ending? And is Rory totally a Thelma?

ep 139: I'm sorry if you thought we had some kind of deep Thelma and Louise thing going

Because Barbra is queen! In the first pop culture ref of our final season, we finally watch and discuss The Way We Were. This '70s weepy features a Palladino-esque heroine, Robert Redford in a cable knit sweater, heartache, laugher, and Communism all in one neat package! We discuss the cultural changes in parenting since the 1970s, why the Gilmores reference this movie several times in the series, and, yes, Robert Redford in that cable knit sweater.
