I do like that "will you ever shut up?" category also. Maybe it could be called 'Verbal is his/her thing' as that was always a popular line from the early days? Just a suggestion.
Hee, this is such a nicer way to put it!  I have an idea for their winning sig:   |

Episode Discussion / Season 3 / Re: 3.16 - The Big One

This is such a great Season 3 epi. I absolutely adore all of Paris's qualms about sleeping with Jamie and then her subsequent meltdown when she doesn't get into Harvard. While extreme, it is a good bit of drama to liven up the C-Span taping and it really gives Liza Weil a huge chance to shine. When she goes to Rory for advice, looking for reassurance that losing her virginity was "okay", it really made Paris seem so vulnerable and gave her a new layer. I can very much relate to the whole Big One envelope concept! I vividly remember being a senior in high school and checking the mail first thing when I got home every day to see if I was accepted to my first choice university! I had already been accepted to my back up but had my heart set on a particular school. At the time, it was SO true that the thickness of the envelope meant everything!!! Registration forms, housing forms, financial aid, and so on were necessary if you were in. If you weren't in, one little form letter let you know that fact as poor Paris found out. I find it fascinating that the world changes so rapidly that what was true during season 3 had changed by season 7, as Paris points out when her grad school acceptances come pouring in. These days, all the registration stuff is done online so the bulk of an envelope no longer determines your fate! Sad in a way, because much like Rory I was thrilled when my "big one" envelope arrived in the mailbox and I knew right away I was in. It was a cool feeling. Ahhh - Lorelai and Max. I'm glad that there's this little bit of closure between them at the end of season 3. I think the way they handled their unexpected meeting in the drug store was met with class on both of their parts. I think their impromptu kiss in the Chilton coat room is sometimes what happens when two people who used to be very close to each other find themselves face to face again . . . a bit awkward, yet natural out of old habit. I love when Lorelai says to Sookie, "My finger's hitting the fast-forward button, hun!"  They have such a great friendship. It is even more apparent when Lorelai realizes that Sookie is pregnant the same time Sookie does herself. I, too, think it is a very substantial moment between mother and daughter when Lorelai starts pulling the envelopes out of the mailbox at the end. Both Lauren and Alexis do a very nice job here. |

I just wanted to pop in and mention that I absolutely loved the interview. I agree that Lauren purposefully goes into "interview bit" mode and honestly that is fine with me. With all the serious issues and harsh realities of the world today, it is essential to have some light fare - and let's face it . . . that's what people are hoping for when they tune into Ellen and I think Lauren gets that. It is also just an aspect to her personality -- having learned a lot about her, she has quite a lot of layers and is extremely sharp even when she is appearing not to be. This makes me think of on Celebrity Poker Showdown when she pretends to be quite clueless about it all and then ends up methodically owning the table. Also, one thing to remember is that wit is borne of intelligence. When put on the spot, I don't think I could make people laugh quite as much as Lauren is able to in a short period of time. Although, I also share some of these ADHD tendencies that have been mentioned! My mind works fast and I jump from subject to subject randomly because I simply can't get it all out in time.  I see a bit of that in Lauren -- she's often on the next thing as fast as lightening. As far as the movie, I thought the clip was well-chosen and showed the tone of the movie. It's actually a film about a very complex and somewhat tortured man, so I can see where the discussion of how windshield wipers are so much better when used "intermittently" might be appropriate for Ellen. It was so good to see her. I have missed her much. It was quite interesting when she mentioned she was initially considered for the role based on a previous Ellen experience! I also loved when Ellen said she didn't think Lauren was acting any differently than usual at all. |
