• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Fried Korean Thanksgiving, which aired on November twenty sixth, two
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: thousand and two. And when I think of a Gilmore
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Girls Thanksgiving episode, this is it.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, agreed, because we.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Have how many are there? Do we know?
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: How many Thanksgiving episodes do we have?
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: You know, that's a good question. I should I should
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: have double checked out.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know than one.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I think there's more than one. But this one is
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: kind of the finding one because we get four Thanksgivings
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: basically in one episode.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: I know, and it doesn't it's so funny because oh,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: technically two episodes. That thinks, Yeah, I mean Thanksgiving is
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: not like like Friends had a bunch of Thanksgiving episodes.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Well more than more than two, I.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Think, yeah, But yeah, I really enjoyed this episode.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's there's a there's a lot that goes on.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: There's there's some good plot points. Here.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I have to say I thought it was very sweet
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: that I was a goot to say Scott that Luke
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: was like going to miss them for not stopping by,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: and I'm glad they made the time.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that was good. And the whole marshmallow bit.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: Did you see that when she sent him to get
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: more marshmallows and then.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: She pines on the phone, well she takes.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: At the actual Thanksgiving and they say how the yams
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: are really good? She says, oh, can you get me
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: some more marshmallows? And then when he walks away, she
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: takes the marshmallows off his plate.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Yep. Yah.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a very cute little Luke and Laura
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I noticed that.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: And also I just thought it was really interesting that
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the four of them sat together to eat.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I was like, this feels weird.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, when he says like, that's our table over there.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: This whole episode, by the way, was like Jess and
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Rory being really like hi, hi, hi, Hi, very weird.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: It's still super awkward. Yeah, it's it's been a couple
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: episodes since the dance Marathon, but it's still you can
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: still wear especially yeah, Rory, especially like she doesn't want
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: to kiss in front of the market, and she's just
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: very sort of self conscious. I think she still feels guilty,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: you know, about the way that it ended with Dean,
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: So I think she's just self conscious about it. But
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: of course Jess is like, you know, let's just do
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: it in front of everybody.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that Dean, though, was a little out
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of character at the end, like standing there in the
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: dark confronting Jess.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the trash cans with just taking the trash out.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: I remember the first time I watched that scene, I
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: thought that was like setting us up for a fight,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: or for a fight, or just like some sort of
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: ongoing storyline between the two of them, because Dean was like,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: you know, I kind of don't care anymore, and you know,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I like it, and I just I thought it was
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: going to be more of a fight for Rory. Like
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: I thought he was going to try to get Rory back.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Right, because it's right now, it's not about Rory. It's
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: about like taking just down right right. I mean it
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: will once we get to the next episode, we'll talk
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: about it kind of trickles in, it does.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just thought that there was going to be
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: sort of a storyline where Dean like actively tries to
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: get Rory away from it.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of I kind of wish that we
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: didn't have that scene in this episode because I would
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: have liked to end this Thanksgiving episode just like clean,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: like clean slate, like when it happened, because it ends
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: with that, like that's like the end of the episode.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: And I was like, did I need it right now?
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I get why, but like, you know.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it would have been good to just have like
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: that holiday happiness kind of like wrap around the whole
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: episode and just sort of end on that note. But yeah,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: I see, I see what you're saying, Like, yeah, it
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: kind of takes us out of the Thanksgiving mode.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: But man, did we really miss out on Dave Rogowski
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: and Gilmore girls.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I was watching this, I was like, oh, man, I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: wish he Don't get me wrong, I love the OC.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: See I never watched the OC, so I don't have
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: that to compare it to. They used to film near
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: my house all the time.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I have psades filming.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because the beach, the OC beach whatever it was
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: supposed to be, was actually torn.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they were in Newport Beach. You know, I actually
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: think you would really enjoy the show.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: It's a little more like I means.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: It has its raunchy moments of like teen drama, but
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: the family story and specifically Adam Brodie are Adam Brody
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: makes the entire show.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I should try it because I really like him.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Did you watch Nobody Wants This?
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: I started it because we talked about it. I watched
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: like three or four episodes of it, and I really
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: liked it. I just haven't come back to.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: It season one. Yes, So you know how like lovable
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: he is in that show. That's the same vibe he
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: gives off in the entire OC and even with all
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: this drama around it, he is just like the breath
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: of fresh air in that show.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and lovable in Gilmore too, like I I
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: for me, he is Lane's end game, like I really
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: stayed together.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I think he's just if he can play all these characters.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I've never met Adam Brody, but I'm just gonna say
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I think Adam Brody is a very lovable human being.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, all right, I'm trying to think.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Let's we're kind of jumping around.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, the sukie stuff is always funny because of
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: she just got drunk.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: She was so over Thanksgiving.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Yes, and then the gilmour Is Thanksgiving, you know what
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I mean? Me think I was like, son, I feel
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: like a Thanksgiving at the Gilmoures. It felt like just
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: like we were forced to invite these people over to
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: have dinner.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: It was a little weird, like just they they didn't
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe just that's just how the Gilmoures
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: do things. But to me, Thanksgiving is about like the
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: people that you're close to and maybe not necessarily family,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: but just people like you know, close friends or whatever.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: And I just felt this was more like a business dinner.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: That's how I felt.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had like you know, we have we kept
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: it pretty low key this Thanksgiving, but you know, we
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: always have Thanksgiving at my cousin's house and my aunt
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: always invites everyone, and we have like family friends or
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: people who like may not have like who are family
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: friends who don't have family here, that don't have anyone
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: celebrate with when they come and you know, you don't
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: really know them, but you kind of know that, like
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like it's just like a
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: it's just nice to get together. But yeah, this felt
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: like a business transaction.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Right right, And I mean I get that the Gilmour
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: family is small, like there's not a lot of cousins
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: and aunts and uncles.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, do we know, right, but we never meet
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: any really.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Emily mentions a sister that lives in France. But other
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: than that, we have Tricks and that's it. So I
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: get that it's not going to be like this giant
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: family dinner.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I wish, you know, that's the one thing that we're
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: missing from Gilmore Girls that I just kind of realized
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: in this moment is I wish we saw there the
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Gilmore family, whether it's Emily and Richard, like lorealized cousins
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: and the cousins kids, you know, like more of that,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: even though like the family is stars hollow, and I
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: understand that because it's more about community, but just like
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: a couple of times, just throw in some crazy aunt
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: in the.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Mix, you know. Yeah, they do mention, like in the
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: vow renewal, there's Aunt Tatsi or whatever.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I mention it, but we've never seen so we don't know.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: We don't know who's she is, like, we don't know
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: who she's connected to. And then when Tricks dies, we
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: only see Richard dealing with anything. There's not like any
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: brothers or sisters that come out of the woodwork.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Do we hear about Emily's parents, No, just just.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Not really she like maybe in passing, I know there
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: was a conversation about Emily's twenty first birthday invitations and
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: you know, so we know like she came from money,
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: but we don't know anything. There's a lot of people
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: that are saying, if there were to be like another
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: creation in the Gilmour universe, they would like to see
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: like an origin story, like a pretty quel of Richard
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: and Emily. Yeah, which would be that would be pretty cool.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know who they would who they would cast
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: in those roles.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Well you have you have the basis you have they
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: went to Yale, they met, they had I mean literally that.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: So we just watched to talk about.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: How like he proposed, Yeah, of the Penalan lot of
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: it all, Like there's there's line there.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: There would be some good content there. I think like
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: you could definitely, you know, pull together a season or
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: two out of that. That would be pretty cool.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: I didn't have any like anything to really call out,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: but I'm sure you do from this episode.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: So I have a few things, and I want to
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: I want to check. Okay, I'm just looking at my
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: notes here. So there was a tiny, tiny corner of
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: the clown pillow.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Did you notice that it.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Was in the very open I didn't.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Where they were watching gray gardens. You had to know
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: that it was the clown pillow because you don't see
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: the clown. You just see just red object, you know,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: behind that chair by the window.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Oh you know, I did see red, but because I
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: didn't see the clown pillow, I just assumed it wasn't
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: the clown pillow.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm gonna go with clown pillow.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: Okay, and then let's see so oh fun fun thing
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: the Thanksgiving scene at the Gilmour's.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: So the one the French Guy. This is kind of
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: one of those weird little meta moments. The French Guy
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: was played by Michael de Bar who is a he's
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: a singer but he's also an actor, and his wife
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: while ex wife by the time he did Gilmour, but
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: his wife previously was Pamela de Bar, who Laura Lai
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: and Rory actually referred to in the show like as
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: a pop culture reference.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: That's very, very deep.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: It's very Yeah, she was like a famous groupie in
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: the sixties and seventies and she wrote like this tell
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: all book about it, and so that's what Laurlai and
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: Rory are referring to. And it's actually in season three,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: it's in a couple more episodes.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Okay, you have to call it out when yeah, yea,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: when we get there.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Talking about his ex wife. And then the other so
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: soap opera fans probably already know this, which I have
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: not watched a soap opera in a very long time.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: But the other the other actor that was at the
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: dinner was John Aniston, who's Jennifer Aniston's dad. Oh, and
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: they look nothing alike. I was watching him like they
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: didn't even seem related to me.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: I actually remember reading somewhere that her dad was in
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: a Gilmore Girls episode, and I literally watched this and
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: like had no idea. That's so I didn't realize. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: knew that, I knew that fun fact that he was
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: in the show. I just didn't nowhere.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one. And then just one other thing.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: We always talk about the brand names. Did you notice
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: how many brand like I lost count there was of them.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: All honestly, there was too many.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I usually called him out because usually we're kind of like,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: we're like, oh, it's just such of Kellogg cereals. There
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: was too many for me to like keep track, so
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I just stopped paying attention to it.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: It was it was a virus. There was stovetop stuffing,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: there was I can't I can't even think of everything
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: right now, but yeah, there there was. It was just
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: brand name school Lord's like they just didn't care in
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: that episode.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, usually it's the pinpoint it down to, like a brand.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: By this time, I was like, i't just throw whatever
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: we have.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and then really the only other thing I
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: had is just kind of a funny thing that popped
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: into my head was the scene where they run into
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Kirk outside of the store where he bought all the
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: cat equipment and he's standing there like with the cat
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: carrier and all that, and they're kind of teasing him
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: because he named the cat after himself, right, so it's
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: cat Kirk, and Laura's like, isn't that confusing? And I'm like,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: she named her daughter after herself, so it's.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: A really good point. But wasn't she basically Rory out
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: of the womb.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah probably, but you're.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Right, that's actually a really funny point. Also, I doesn't
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: a cat. Maybe it's just because I like this episode.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: I've rewatched it for Thanksgiving, but doesn't like the cat
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: storyline continue for a while.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: No, Okay, I thought it was more of a prominent like.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: There's there's so many there's multiple there's like four different
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: scenes that it's in in this episode, but I don't
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: there's another episode where he's got a dog, but that's
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: after he's dating Lulu.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, huh.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I guess maybe just because I remember this episode so well,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: I just remembered Cat Kirk.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is kind of my comic.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so funny. All right, Well I think that's oh yeah.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Otherwise it was a very fun episode. I would never
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: want to try to a fur ky, I can tell
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: you that. I yes.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: But hats off to Laurlai for remembering all of missus
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Kim's relatives names.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: She had to have studied it before getting Yeah, yeah,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: so funny. All right, the next time we see you,
