We have compiled all of our ads from Season 2. If you've missed it, each episode we write a phony ad that relates to the episode in some way. We have a lot of fun with it!

This week, Alexis and Suzanne reflect on Season 2 and all of the twists and turns it has brought. They talk about how Rory and Lorelai are deep in character growth, even if they weren't entirely likable this season. Suzanne discusses what fantasy creatures some townsfolk would be, and Alexis brings some TikTok source material to the table. 

Next week, we'll be back with an interview with John Cabrera, who plays Brian Fuller on the show. After that, for the rest of November, we'll have weekly interviews with some Gilmore Girls creators and fandom leaders!

This week, Alexis and Suzanne finish up Season 2 with Episode 22, "I Can't Get Started." They both agree that this is a great season finale, it wraps things up just enough and still leaves them excited to get to Season 3 in January. Suzanne loves that Sookie is getting her big day and representing a full circle love story for a fat woman. Alexis enjoys the musical stylings of the townspeople as the guests gather for the ceremony. And both are appalled by the highs and lows that Lorelai and Rory experience all in one afternoon. 

Join us next week for our full Season Recap, and after that, come back every Tuesday in November for a different interview with people in the Gilmore Girls fan community!

This week, Alexis and Suzanne cover Season 2 Episode 21, "Lorelai's Graduation Day." Alexis and Suzanne are excited about Lorelai's graduation but a little bit miffed that Rory disregarded Lorelai's wishes and invited Richard and Emily. Suzanne is envious of the tassle-cap cake and humbly requests one for her upcoming graduation. Meanwhile, Alexis fawns over Jackson's confidence in his impeccable new suit. In the end, both also like Rory and Jess in New York, but at what cost?

This week Alexis and Suzanne cover Season 2 Episode 19, "Teach Me Tonight." It is a doozy.

Overall, both agree that everybody needs to remember Jess is a teenager, and not the devil.

Suzanne gets frustrated with Headmaster Charleston's failure to realize that school is part of the "real" world, and Alexis notes the beginning of Rory's pattern of avoidance that leads to a lot of problems in the future.
