As the leaves start to turn orange and the temperature begins to drop, it's the perfect time to snuggle up with a hot chocolate and binge-watch your favorite shows. For many, this includes the beloved series Gilmore Girls. The comedy-drama about the close-knit mother-daughter duo, Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, and their quirky adventures in the small town of Stars Hollow is a comfort show that fans return to year after year. From the slow burn romance between Lorelai and the local diner owner Luke Danes to Rory's ambitious journalism goals and the complicated dynamics with her parents Richard and Emily, there's something irresistible about this show during the autumn season.
While there are many things that make more sense as the years go on, one aspect that continues to puzzle fans is the Gilmore's financial situation. As the series progresses, we see financial issues become a major plot driver, starting with the very first episode where Lorelai must ask her wealthy parents for money to fund Rory's education at a prestigious private school. For Lorelai, who prides herself on being independent, it's not an easy task to swallow her pride and ask for help. This sets the tone for the recurring theme of money struggles throughout the eight seasons.
But as fans dig deeper into the show, they start to question the Gilmore's financial situation. On one hand, Lorelai and Rory are constantly complaining about being broke and relying on her parents for financial assistance. On the other hand, they seem to live a lavish lifestyle that many of us can only dream of. Lorelai eats out all the time, never wears the same outfit twice, and even takes spontaneous European vacations. It's no wonder that fans have declared this a major plot hole that they just can't ignore any longer.
Some fans have taken to Reddit to discuss their confusion and frustration with the Gilmore's finances. From questioning how they can afford to eat at Luke's diner every day to wondering if Lorelai has a special discount with him, it's clear that this inconsistency has not gone unnoticed. Despite this, many fans still love the show for its unique world and relatable characters.
But the financial aspect isn't the only thing that doesn't make total sense in the show. There are also some casting inconsistencies, with Sean Gunn playing two different characters and Rose Abdoo playing both Gypsy and one of Emily's maids. And let's not forget the characters' unrealistic morning routines, where they somehow manage to spend hours getting ready, eating a full breakfast, and still make it to school or work on time.
But despite these plot holes, Gilmore Girls remains a beloved comfort watch for many. Its small-town charm and heartwarming relationships between the characters are what keep fans coming back. So, whether you're watching for the umpteenth time or discovering it for the first time, grab a cup of coffee (or hot chocolate) and enjoy the unique world of the Gilmore Girls.
