DVD Reviews of Gilmore Girls - The Complete Fifth Season
DVD Review: Just gets better and better
Summary: 5 Stars
Except for the writers trying to morph Rory into a trollop in her casual beginnings with Logan and the fact that Rory is still something of a whiny, spoiled girl at times, the fifth season was another great one. I have truly missed this show since it went off-air. Since I was only able to purchase the first four seasons a year ago, FINALLY getting my hands on this season was a reminder of why it was such a tragedy that Amy Sherman-Palladino left after the sixth season and the show fizzled in the seventh season. Lots of fun and even more crazy only-the-Gilmores moments fill this season and make it worth watching again (and again).DVD Review: love the gilmore girls!
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter introduced me to the Gilmore Girls and I fell in love! Watched all seven seasons in a 2 month time frame! The writing is witty and the show is contemporary and real. I doubt anyone could keep from watching once they start!DVD Review: Gilmore Girls Rock
Summary: 4 Stars
Heard good things about Gimore Girls and then found season one on sale at ?13.99 so thought why not try it. Season one hooked me and I had to buy more. During my holiday at the end of July untill the second week of August I watched every episode of every season . It only took that long as I had to order two seasons from America.
Season 5 carried on the legacy of season 4 I was not dissapointed with my purchase. Lorelai and luke , Rory and Yale , Gilmore Girls and Gilmore parents things moved on and I wanted to know where they were going each episode drew me into the next the banta was there as always and the fast talking .
Still need to know how they can afford all that food and Luke never takes and money from them .
DVD Review: awesome season!
Summary: 5 Stars
What can I say, I loved it. I liked the price that amazon is selling it also. everywhere the price was around $40 but here it was $24!!DVD Review: Good season for quite simply the best series of this decade
Summary: 5 Stars
Hyperbole? No. Gilmore Girls is one of those rare creations on TV or any media really where the characters are so well fleshed out they are real. I can not draw. When I try to draw a human face it ends up looking like a cat drew it or a 2-year old. Most TV is that way. Characters are distorted, lamed-down, absurd imitations of human beings. Quite depressing actually. It is why I read or watch sports.
Once in awhile lo and behold REAL PEOPLE on TV. Quirky people. Quirky people who are belivable. The main characters are flawed, intelligent, interesting, amusing, and aware. The quirky supporting cast is just as believable and endearing.
This year we get to see Rory dealing with relationships on a deeper more emotional level both with boyfriends and her mom. And there is more Luke and Lorelai together. Good stuff.
There has been talk of a Gilmore Girls movie filling in the time since we last have seen them. Also talk of Alexis not wanting to do it. It doesn't matter. Once you get hooked on the series you will know these characters as well as the writers and the actors. And that is some mighty fine writing to achieve that.
The Emmys should be ashamed of itself. The series was virtually over-looked except for a 'statue' episode. Almost nothing receiving an Emmy the forst years of the new decade could come close to this. Series is so good I gave it a 5 but it should as a DVD be closer to a 4 or even a 3. Not a lot of extras. Fans deserve more when they shell out money, especially as many have watched the episodes before.
But if you want to introduce someone new to them or watch them commerical free whenever you want. Or just have them on hand when a child is old enough to watch them, good buy.
Description of Gilmore Girls - The Complete Fifth Season
Gilmore rising: Lorelai. The Dragonfly Inn is a huge success. And Lorelai's romance with Luke (the just-gotta-be relationship fans have waited for!) steams up Stars Hollow. Gilmore going down: Rory. College boys and career plans crash and burn leaving the once-confident golden girl reeling. Fasten your seat belt for a fabulously funny and heartbreakingly dramatic Season 5. The wit charm and eccentricity that have created legions of Gilmore Girls devotees are on glorious display in all 22 episodes of the hit series' fifth year. Adding more sparkle is the brilliant array of totally off-kilter totally engaging supporting characters: Sookie Paris Lane Kirk Michel the imperious Gilmore pere et mere and a townful more. See you in Stars Hollow!Running Time: 957 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC:?012569706866Perennially one of the WB's highest-rated series, Gilmore Girls hit its creative high point to date with its stellar fifth season, which started out with young Rory (Alexis Bledel) feeling the fallout of doing something terribly non-Rory-like: sleeping with Dean (Jared Padalecki), her married ex-boyfriend. Rory's indulgence in adultery put, for the first time, a serious, sharp wedge in her relationship with her mother, Lorelai (Lauren Graham), who was both shocked by her daughter's behavior and worried Rory would repeat the mistakes Lorelai made at her age. But while Rory jetted off to Europe with her grandmother (Kelly Bishop) for the summer, Lorelai finally got her relationship with diner owner Luke (Scott Patterson) into a serious groove, starting with an official (and incredibly sweet) first date and others that involved, if you can believe it, a Swedish Pippi Longstocking movie. And as Lorelai navigated romantic terrain in Stars Hollow (terrain that of course did not run smooth), Rory found life more complex in her second year at Yale, as her relationship with Dean became increasingly strained. Not only that, she found her attention turned towards preppy Logan (Matt Czurchy), a spoiled rich kid who represented everything Rory couldn't stand--and was of course immediately attracted to. Little did Rory know that Logan's entrance into her life, and her interaction with his family, would be the catalyst for one of the most momentous decisions she would ever make.
With this season of Gilmore Girls, creative forces Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino finally found a way to make the Stars Hollow-Yale dichotomy work perfectly, as each location still stood alone but had decided repercussions on the other. Gone were freshman-year anxieties for Rory and in their place were more adult romantic concerns as well as a class consciousness that, for the first serious time, found Rory on the side of the haves and not the have-nots. While the Rory-Dean drama played itself out nicely and succinctly, it was the devilish Logan who lit a fire underneath this Gilmore girl; the episode "You Jump, I Jump, Jack" was a lovely twist on the '30s romantic comedies that found rich folk at play with words and deeds. Bledel started to fully blossom as Rory grew from ing?nue to leading lady, and she was matched peerlessly by Graham, whose passion, anger, stubbornness, and ravishing beauty all came to a head in "Wedding Bell Blues," which featured her two greatest nemeses: her mother and Rory's dad, Christopher (David Sutcliffe). The show's trademark eccentricities were all in place--including a Pulp Fiction party and an elementary school production of Fiddler on the Roof, among other things--but it mined the best drama of its run with the season's last four episodes, which found Rory's confidence shaken to the core. To give any of the proceedings away would spoil the drama, but suffice it to say you will be glued to the TV for this season's final four hours; it's Gilmore Girls at its phenomenal best. --Mark Englehart
