Friday Night Dinner

I'm currently doing my best to watch all Gilmore Girls episodes and post trivia and information about each episode. Please drop a message int he ask box if you have any trivia or information that you think should be mentioned!

(If you scroll back far enough, you'll see that this tumblr started life as a Paris Gellar fanpage, and then moved on to be a Richard & Emily Gilmore fanpage.)

It’s Rory Gilmore’s shirt! But in a mug!
