8 Times Emily Gilmore Was The Best Thing About 'A Year In The Life'

Comic Book

If you haven't finished watching "Gilmore girls: A Year in the Life" you need to. Don't read the rest of this article, go watch it. If you have finished watching the revival, it's time to admit Emily Gilmore was the star of the revival. Her character had so much development and basically shined in every scene. Emily Gilmore was hands down the best part of "A Year in the Life"

1. When she had the outburst with the D.A.R. ladies.

Emily Gilmore cursing. Emily Gilmore telling the ladies how it is. Everything about this scene was perfect and hilarious. One of the best scenes of all four episodes.

2. When we got to see Emily Gilmore wearing jeans.

Seeing Emily Gilmore in jeans was an Earth shattering moment. She's a classy lady and to see her running around her house in jeans was perfect.

3. When Emily told Lorelai off after Richard's funeral.

The showdown was much needed between the two. It was intense, but beautiful acting and Emily finally got to say everything to Lorelai she needed to.

4. When Emily questions Rory not having a steady living situation.

Emily seemed to be the only one to question Rory for her choices in the revival. She comforted her at the dinner about her living situation and was surprised to see Lorelai and Luke supporting it. She said what we were all thinking about Rory not having anything permanent.

5. When she finally kept a maid.

A running gag on the original series is that Emily can not keep a maid. However, in the revival, she finally keeps a maid. She even goes as far to let the maid's whole family move in with her and she helps take care of them.

6. When she moved to Nantucket and seemed to find joy once for all.

Emily's story in the revival is she can not find joy and does not know how to live her life now that Richard is gone. Seeing her move to Nantucket, taking her maid's family with her and appearing to find joy and peace was precious.

7. When she got the wall sized portrait of Richard.

When Lorelai and Rory come over for dinner they find the wall sized portrait of Richard. The girls are mortified of the giant portrait and assume Emily must have got the measurements wrong. However, in the end Lorelai finds the new, and much smaller portrait of Richard.

8. When she took the job at the museum.

Okay, children were crying from her crazy presentation and Emily working in this museum seems crazy. But, working and doing something could be good for her and it was hilarious to see her doing it.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
