The worst part of Emily and Loreleis relationship was when Emily went OUT of her way to ruin her and Lukes relationship, even when Lorelei had expressed how much he means to her, the fact that he wasn’t wealthy and only owned a diner was not enough for Emily and although that’s exactly what Lorelei wanted Emily almost gaslight her into thinking he wasn’t.

as someone who comes from a very poor household, i kind of hated lorelai at first. i thought how privileged she must be to CHOOSE the life she lives over rhe fortune her parents could give her. but i came to understand how gigantic lorelai's balls must be to have made that choice. she turned away from her parents money and chose independence (hah) from a very early age, and i really love her for that now. to purposely choose a life that isnt all comfortable and wealthy, just so you can be your own person.. she's so badass.

Lorelai does rely on her parents' financial help A LOT though. She acts like she doesn't enjoy those privileges but she really does. She states again and again that she did it "without any help from anyone." Which is both: (1) comical because of how much money she gets from her parents whenever she needs it, and (2) insulting to all the Stars Hollow people (Mia, Luke, Sookie, etc, etc) who helped her ALL THE TIME. Lorelai is so self centered and really doesn't appreciate people enough or acknowledge her privilege at all.

She isn’t self centered she thinks of other people ALOT. She doesn’t mean “no help from anyone” in the literal sense. She worked in exchange for living in the independence inn. She never stayed there for free. I could do this all night. Lorelai cares about people which is impressive considering where she comes from. Money does not equal love. Money cannot buy love or buy back time lost from distancing yourself from your parents bc they abuse you and aren’t good for your mental health

I know that Loreli and Emily's relationship was always rocky, but I also wonder if Emily might have been a little jealous of how Loreli's life turned out. When Loreli left, I am sure Emily expected Loreli to have a horrible time and come crying back, begging forgiveness and agreeing to marry Christopher. However, Loreli (with help from the owner of the Independence Inn) managed to do well for herself and Rory, and became a successful business woman; all without the help of her parents. Loreli is well respected in her community without having to use her parents status. Loreli raised her daughter well. So I think Emily is either jealous that Loreli didn't need her or maybe resentful. She seems to need to have been needed.

You mentioning how Emily never really changes or wants to even try to change her behavior towards Lorelai is actually one of the reasons why I kind of appreciate the show for having such human characters (even if they can be embarrassingly frustrating at times as a viewer). Because there are many people who may love you and mean well but their methods of communication or behavior towards you never really change even if you repeatedly give them signals that said behavior is the reason why you hold them at a distance. Like just in the first two seasons you have various moments where Emily comes to various revelations about Lorelai and her life with Rory, and even in the birthday episode for Rory in season 1, once her and Richard get in the car, she tells him that they "don't know their daughter at all", especially in terms of the life she leads or even what she wants. I *do* think that Emily does try to support some of Lorelai's choices even if she went against them at first, like her trying to set her back up with Christopher right when Lorelai is together with Luke, only to face the rightful consequence of Lorelai not talking to her because she tried to do that. And then in season 6 her and Richard try to buy a new place so they can be closer to their daughter after she marries. Granted it's a weird idea but I can see it being their way of expressing attention and love towards Lorelai, even if it's of course really weird for her. But yeah with so many other things, I don't really blame Lorelai for leaving the way she did especially when she was still a teenager who just had a baby. Like I can only imagine the added pressure of Lorelai going through teenagehood while Emily is her mother, and trying to desperately mold her into a "good" daughter by having her do a 'coming out' in the DAR the way Rory did, but the pressure of also becoming a teenage mom and being said teenage mom under Emily's roof while raising a baby? It would've likely been unbearable for her.

Richard and Emily weren't buying the house for themselves. They were buying it for Luke and Lorelei to live in. Kirk told Lorelei that Richard and Emily were looking for a house in Stars Hollow and Lorelei assumed that they were buying the house for themselves. But later on Emily tells Lorelei that the house is a wedding present for her and Luke. So the house is both Emily supporting Lorelei's relationship with Luke but also Emily supporting Lorelei's choice to live in Stars Hollow. ☺

For me, I saw through Richard's mother Gran, how the people of that generation treated Emily. She was striving to be perfect for herself to get validation from Gran, which never came until Emily got something on her. This is how Emily was taught to demean and have over-the-top expectations. And that if she wanted to clean up her mess or get her way that money was how to get the validation she needed. Lorelei desperately wanted validation from her mother. Emily did not know how. When Lorelei left the people that didnt have as much, is where she got the validation from. And Lorelei gave validation to Rory as best as she could in her own arrested development. Everything that is learnt gets passed down to the next. All the ladies in this family have snap to their tongues when it is deemed needed. Emily does want Lorelei's relationship, but is having a hard time making that bond, as she cant be accountable for own behaviors first, as she considers it as a weakness and would rather be a victim than look at herself. Very heavy stuff. Welcome to families.

"I wasn't taught to be best friends with my daughter. I did what I thought was best for you. I did what I thought I needed to do to protect you." Emily S2EP16 I agree that Emily and Lorelei will never have a best friend relationship like lorelai and Rory. However, I believe both Emily and Lorelei tried several times to create that kind of bond. However, they were always met with obstacles. For example, Emily efforts were portrayed with spaghetti and meatballs and pudding. When Emily and Lorelei went on the spa trip, I think that was Emily trying to reach out to Lorelei. However, Lorelei never lived up to Emily's expectations. Every single time they started to create a bond, stupid incident would happen, and everything would come crumbling down. You were right about Lorelei's life being intentionally planned to not include Emily. She built her walls to protect herself. Emily and Lorelei are both such emotional people. At times call me it was difficult to watch your turtles walls down only to have to build them back up when Emily made it clear that she was a disappointment to her again. The problem is is that they're too similar when it comes to how stubborn they are. They are both very emotional and have very strong beliefs which is why they will never have that relationship. On the other hand, Rory is more submissive. She'll follow her mom to the end of the earth. Although she does have her own personality, she code switches in a way that Lorelei was never able to do. She lacks that stubborn personality. Unlike Lorelei, she is a people pleaser and will mold to whatever is expected of her which is why they are able to have such a close relationship. You only see cracks in their relationship when Rory starts making decisions that do not fall in line with her mother's strong beliefs.

Btw I think it’s funny how Richard Gilmore always gets off the hook. Let’s video on his faults because for all of Emily’s faults at least she tries lol

When I first watched Gilmore Girls as a teen, I found myself a little bit annoyed by Lorelai’s constant defiance. It sometimes seemed childish, ungrateful, and bratty to me. After high school though, I moved in with a relative who is very similar to Emily (minus the high society/immense wealth, think more traditional conservative Christian). Upon rewatching the show having lived with my own Emily, I gained a deeper understanding of their dynamic. In fact, I began shutting out my relative the same way Lorelai did to Emily. Then, *i* was being called ungrateful and bratty for it. I guess that’s the narrative that’s told in these types of social groups. Respect = Compliance. Dare to stick up for yourself, and you’re frowned upon for being (gasp) improper and tarnishing their reputation.

Unpopular opinion: I find Lorelai and Emily to be very similar and that's why they will never get along. They have different interests, but their motivations are akin. They're both far too stubborn to adapt to the other.

Just want to say that i love that your comment section is filled with essays 😂 i think that’s a high compliment to your analysis that it encourages so much conversation 👌

Emily is so confident that she’s always right, and also smug whenever she is proven right… like all those times when she rubbed it in Lorelei’s face that Lorelei liked rich-people parties more than she thought she would. That makes it hard to share intimacies with a person because they are sure to throw things back in your face later. 🤷🏽‍♀️

My mother was a bit like Emily to my sister and I growing up, but the difference is that as adults she's made it clear that she DOES actually love us and is willing to listen to us and make changes over time, and we have a better relationship with her than we did before. Emily, in contrast, can NEVER let her grudges go and just listen to Lorelai as a person, and it's like damn, lady! You're never gonna get that time with your daughter back!

I don't think Emily was horrible, she was from a different time, a different generation, where it was more about duty, & keeping up appearances. One didn't rebel, one followed the rules - you got your education (purely so you could be an interesting wife & hostess, not at all to have your own career), you married the right man of similar or higher status, you had children, and the cycle repeated. She couldn't relate to Lorelei, she couldn't understand her rebellious spirit, her desire for more (because to Emily, "more" would just mean more money/status, but that's not at all what Lorelei meant/wanted). She couldn't understand why Lor flat-out rejected her family's lifestyle, especially in favor of living in a place like Stars Hollow (anyone think Emily would've minded, if Lor had ended up living in NYC, with a high-powered job?). I wish we maybe could've seen more of Emily's side of things. We got a little sense in the episode where the 3 Gilmore Girls went to Mia's wedding, and I felt a lot of sympathy for Emily. We also got a little taste in The Third Lorelei, where it's interesting to see how Emily behaves, when she's not the Queen Bee of the household. I understand that the show was mostly about Lorelei & Rory, and that Emily was kind of the 'bad guy' - even the actress said so - but I'm not sure that was fair. I believe Emily loved Lorelei (and it goes without saying, that she adored Rory), but she was also disappointed in her, and for her. Perhaps Emily also thought that, once Lorelei had been a mom for a while, she(Lor)'d understand Emily better, and the way she raised her, but that obviously went out the window, when Lor decided to be more the 'friend' kind of mom, which also, no doubt, added to the friction between them. Like so many, I didn't love AYitL, but I do think it would be interesting to revisit those characters, see Rory as a mother, Lor as a grandma, & Emily (her story was the only thing I really liked about AYitL) - with her newfound life - as a great-grandma, how differently she would be, towards Lor, Rory, & the baby (I guess the cliché would have to make it a girl, but I think it would be fresh & interesting to have Rory have a son). What if Rory had trouble with motherhood, & Lorelei suddenly became the controlling hoverer, trying to take over their lives, and it's Emily who has to pull her back, & is more the free-spirit of the three?

okay, I'm doing this as a reply, because my original comment was already quite long.... :) I wanted to add that we gain further insight into Emily in season 7, while Richard is having his bypass, when she breaks down in the gift shop. Lorelai (and probably the audience) is upset Emily seems to be acting as if Richard has already died, when she's simply doing what she does - organize & take care of things, including Richard. That's how Emily coped, first with the incessant talking about inane things when she was in the waiting room, and later, by calling everyone to explain why they won't be able to make upcoming engagements. Emily explains to Lorelai that that's what a wife does, that she's done this for 2/3 of her life, and Lorelai just can't understand, both because that's not the kind of wife she is, or wants to be, and because Christopher (or even Max, Jason, nor Luke) didn't need her to be that, it's just not how her generation was. As I wrote above, it's the way Emily's generation was, but Lorelai had found her own way, which was as much a mystery to Emily, as Emily's was, to Lorelai.

I very much relate to Lorelai trying to keep her life secretive when it comes to her parents, especially her mother. I do crave a good relationship with my parents of course, which is the reason for why I’m not open about my personal life. It is the only way I can make it work. My parents were neglectful and abusive and due to that history all three of my sisters have chosen to go no contact, which is well within their rights as adults. You don’t owe anyone a relationship. Especially if they make your life more difficult, purposefully.

as someone who recently found out she has adhd and is currently rewatching the show, I'm pretty sure lorelai has adhd or is at least adhd coded. I've always been drawn to her character bc I also had an abusive mother but with the rewatch I definitely notice the adhd traits lol. no wonder this show is my absolute comfort

having grown up with my parents judging every life decision I've made I can understand Lorelai actually not wanting to share news with them, if she told them bad news they'd make her feel worse and if she told them good news they'd ruin any joy she felt. I fucking get it but I also feel like emily felt like she had to try so hard because she felt like she didn't fully fit in

Love your videos! I’ve gotta say though I disagree about the funeral thing. I know it’s a show, but no one would ever say what Lorelai said at Richards funeral. I’ve been to funerals were the person who passed was generally disliked and everyone knows you still don’t say anything like that. She was beyond childish, much worse than her speech at Lane’s wedding. Emily is certainly to blame for much of the trouble in Lorelai and hers relationship, but her reaction to that incident was totally justified in my opinion.

I feel like when Bill Cosby dies there`s gonna be all those reviews how great he was and anyone saying hey he was a rapist, will be called tasteless and rude. She doesn`t have lot`s of fond memories her real memories are bad.

I think a lot of Emily's damage would be negated if she and Richard had simply had more than one kid! Having one meant ALL their expectations for the continuity of the family were riding on Lorelai, and meant they could like, NEVER forgive her for running off, because it permanently hurt their family's standing in a way that could never be recovered except by another kid, which is why they go so crazy when Rory shows up! With her, they see a chance to finally get their standing back! If they'd simply had more kids like the Huntzbergers (they probably didn't want to or couldn't at the time), they'd probably be a lot nicer to Lorelai, because they - especially Emily - wouldn't constantly be seething over how hurt she feels. Of course, Emily's still crazy and should be nicer to her, but watching the pilot again recently got me thinking about this.

Lorelai went through so much on her own, and people still give her crap about it because she spoiled rory too much, which is true but it doesn't make her a bad person like Emily is. Spoiling rory was a mistake but it was her way of achieving her idea of a good mother, which is all she never had. She had the best intention at heart and people completely dismiss that just to hate on her. Lorelai will always have a special place in my heart

I'm 28 and if I moved away and had almost no contact with my parents and they missed out on my son's childhood it would kill them. Not saying Emily is perfect or always did or said the right things because she definitely did not, I'm just saying Emily loved her daughter as much as Lorelei loved Rory and she didn't deserve the abandonment or the complete disruption of her growth as a parent.

When you have a terrible relationship with your parents who undermine you, silence you, and bully you constantly, it makes you rationalize it with, “my parents hate me” ESPECIALLY to the teenage brain.

She never tried to accept her daughter as she was or understand her. Lorelai needed to be somewhere she felt free to be herself. Lorelai is not this evil daughter everyone tries to paint her out to be.

I haven't seen that show in yeeaars, it got boring to me. But despite the efforts of the show to make Emily look like some kind of horrible woman, I never saw her like that. She is an upper class woman that wants to keep certain image of her and her family which is important for their well being of her family. Lorelai, on the other hand, always has seem to me like a very childish and immature woman! She never grew! She left her safe home being pregnant, putting her and her baby in danger just because she usted to fight with her mom. She deprived her daughter of a better more confortable upbringing just for pure pride... Is insane. I don't understand why people like her so much, I always found Lorelai very annoying... Also! A mother "being friend" of her daughter is not cute, is simply bad parenting... Anyway! Nice video

@@monabohamad2242 1. Calm down, is just a TV show lol... Relax and 2. Lorelai is an inmature woman and her "trauma" is just being born in a rich family with rules she didn't like to obey, that's all...

I do agree with what you say about Rory but I do believe that Doyle should be blamed as he told her she was not been harsh enough and he approved it to go to print. Rory not having any work experience what Mitchum did not give her enough of what he wanted it is a huge thing so he could have taken her aside and explained what was wanted so I think she lost of trust in herself.

I also think, I am not defending Emily but as she says in one episode, she was brought up to be that way she was told by her mother to be like a mother more than friends

what makes you say it's abuse? not saying it isn't, okay. but, is the controlling, criticizing behavior that makes it abusive? you already did a video that was partially about mrs. kim and emily's differences, but i kind of wish it was longer, because i still don't understand it fully. mrs. kim's behavior bothers me a lot, too.

I don't like either of them, but I do understand why Lorelai just left. when she got pregnant it was her ticket out of here out of the abuse her parents didn't give to her. well, it might be selfish for her to use her teen pregnancy as an excuse to leave when her parents wld never kicked her out, but it makes sense that she wants a different life that doesn't rely on criticism or just fake expectations that doesn't feel like home to her. Emily does want to connect her daughter but does a messed-up way of doing it. it just cldn't be because they have different ideologies or different options that will never be solved.

Lor was not going to let Emily raise that child. I wonder if they would have moved away and told the new neighbors that Rory is their 'Change of life baby'

LMAO no why do you ask

I have a theory that Lorelei and Rory have bipolar disorder. Because up there at times manic behavior. Edit: I think Paris Geller also might be bipolar because she does mention medication’s in a few episodes and even offers Rory some medication in at least one episode.
