when i first watch this series and the impression i get be that the character be charm and funny and lorelai and rory in particular be witty and intelligent conversationalist albeit a bit too talkative . after watch it for some time and however and my opinion change . the main character slowly reveal themselves to be self centered self obsess narcissist and who treat tiny wound to their pride a the bad insult in their existence . for example and rory wouldn not speak to her mother for month when lorelai do not consult her on her impulsive marriage and while lorelai dump luke for simply want a little time to adjust to his new life circumstance . these people be shallow and see themselves a the center of the universe where everyone else should behave exactly accord to how their own rigid rule and and if they do not and they will hold grudge against them for an eternity . they do not want to see other people problem and treat the small slight a the grave offence . most of the character appear to lack the ability to behave in a grow up way . they think they should do whatever that they want and everyone else be damn . the series be character base and so when the main character become so unlikeable the show also become impossible to watch . i still have the rest of the series and but i doubt if i will ever finish watch them . i will also hold anyone who think highly of the show and it awful character with the great suspicion they must just as horrid a lorelai et al .
