Senior year meant some surprising changes for the Gilmore girls, as both Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory (Alexis Bledel) wrestled with their pasts in order to figure out what the heck they were going to do with their futures. In the wake of finding out that her relationship with Rory's dad was not to be rekindled, Lorelai endured a variety of suitors as she attempted to keep her life on an evil keel--not easy when her former flame's girlfriend was pregnant (and clueless), her former fiancé shows up unexpectedly, and her beloved inn suffers some unforeseen damage. If it was minor drama for Lorelai, it was full-fledged soap opera for Rory, who broke up with longtime boyfriend Dean (Jared Padalecki) in the wake of her attraction to the moody bad-boy Jess (Milo Ventimiglia), only to find her new relationship fraught with difficulties. Add to that the pressure of getting into college (Harvard or Yale?) and stressful senior class politics at the snooty Chilton private school, and it's a wonder she still had time to crack wise at breakneck speed with her mom and the rest of Stars Hollow. The center of the third season of Gilmore Girls was the Rory-Dean-Jess triangle, which played out with surprising sensitivity and not a bit of sadness; it all came to a head in the episode "They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?" in which Rory and Lorelai's quest to win a dance marathon ends in tears and break-ups. The year's teen drama did have a tendency to put the adults on the back burner, but the luminous Graham made the most of her character's dilemmas, whether gauging her growing attraction to diner owner Luke (Scott Patterson) or wrestling with her parents' continuous meddling. While it is hard to pinpoint a specific compelling story arc for this season, that doesn't mean it wasn't filled with the charm, smarts, and rapid-fire dialogue that made Gilmore Girls one of the brightest shows on television. Stellar supporting turns from Liza Weil as Paris, Rory's friend and nemesis by turns, and a pre- O.C. Adam Brody, as a band member who falls for Rory's best friend Lane (Keiko Agena), also punctuated the drama of the season with great comedy. --Mark Englehart More fun, more flames, more flameouts: more Gilmore. This Deluxe 6-Disc Set contains all 22 third-year episodes (plus bonus features) of The Gilmore Girls, the hit series known for its witty, rapid-fire dialogue and poignant, suds-free storylines. For mother and daughter Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, it's a year of change. Much of it is expected, like Rory's graduation from Chilton and the anxiety of waiting for college acceptance letters. But much of it is not. Rory starts the year with two boyfriends (that may be two too many). Lorelai rekindles the flame with Max (maybe). Lane meets Mr. Right (at last). Sookie gets a surprise (a good one). And so does the Independence Inn (not such a good one). The girls are waiting (get watching!).=20 Review: One of the best seasons of Gilmore Girls! - Season Three of the Gilmore Girls is one of the best of all seven seasons. In this season, Rory [Alexis Bledel] is in her final year at Chilton private school and faces some of the most trying times, be it manouvering political games within the student body, or the love triangle between her, Dean [Jared Padalecki] and Jess [Milo Ventimiglia]. Alexis Bledel does a wonderful job in this season and truly shows her maturing as an actress. Of course, Lorelai [Lauren Graham] continues to shine in her role as a single mom, best friend to her daughter, and aspiring inn owner. Lorelai, fresh from the romantic disappointments of the previous two seasons finds herself sort of lost, and dates around, never truly finding a soulmate. Diner owner Luke Danes [Scott Patterson] is always there to lend his unwavering support and of course, Luke and Lorelai's chemistry is simply magical to watch, be it as good friends or as two people slowly being drawn towards each other. The rocky relations between Lorelai and her parents Emily and Richard Gilmore [ Kelly Bishop and Edward Hermann] goes through its usual turbulent times and its always entertaining to see Lorelai in action and putting her parents in their place, despite their overbearing attitude. Kelly Bishop's Emily is truly a delight to watch as she plays the snooty, controlling character to perfection. Amidst the changes in the main characters' lives this season, the most significant ones are the Rory-Jess-Dean love triangle, and for once we see Rory getting out of her goody-two-shoes character by going after Jess despite being Dean's girlfriend and the episode "They Shoot Gilmores Don't They" shows the resolution to this. There is also the college application anxiety, is it going to be Harvard or Yale? Lorelai's dreams of opening her own inn are developed in greater detail this season, as we see her working hard towards achieving that dream, especially with a certain event that acts as a catalyst towards that end. All in all, I rank this as my favorite GG season, but all the seasons are winners of course. A must-watch series! Review: Not Much Difference!!! - The Only Difference between the Oringal Re-lease and re-Packged Is that Season 3 Orignal Has a Booklet of the epsodies and Re-Packged dosnt. Orinal Realse Has Cardboard Paper where Re-Packged Has a Plastic Jewel Case. There Is a Diffence To let you Know. Depends How Picky you are. For Me I Just Like the show so i can do without Discrption of the epsodies. I didnt by the orignal Realse I Bought the repackged only because i Bought it at the mall. (the store had buy 2 get one free & each one was 50% off). According what i see on here (desertcart) Thats only diffence i see if i am Wrong Please Let me Know Thanks!

Gilmore Girls for dudes
That's right, I'm a guy. And I like this show. For the record, let me state that I didn't always like it, in fact, I honestly despised the show. But my wife loves it, and being whipped as most guys who wear the handcuff that is a wedding ring are I bought it for her for xmas, starting with season 1. Somehow she convinced me to watch the first few episodes with her, and I found I wasn't miserable. Every time before when she had turned the show on while it was on TV I grapped my laptop and headphones and watched some DVD with blood, gore, and explosions, as any normal guy would. But watching the show from the beginning actually got interesting. I found myself getting pissed off when Dean breaks up with Rory, and later on when... actually, no spoilers, lets just say a perfect relationship gets screwed up by the wrong person getting pregnant. So, for all you guys who hate all the luvy-dubby TV shows that your wife or girlfriend undoubtedly try to get you to watch, I'm telling you, buy this show, STARTING WITH SEASON 1. I can't stress that enough, if you start in the middle of the series you will find it to be crap and hate it and me for writing this review, and I really don't want anyone to blame me for taking any time out of their lives. But if you buy it, your significant other will thank you and be amazed as you actually sit through an entire chick show with her without wanting to stab your eyes out from sheer boredom. Believe me, you'll like it. And who can argue with brownie points from the wifey for doing something you'll enjoy?

Could end the Series here.
This series is such fun, irreverent, wacky, wish-I-could-have-been-there fun. I love it. As with many of life's great changes, there are points of closure and this, for me, is one of them. If the series had ended here, I would not have been unhappy. Everything wraps up nicely as Rory finishes high school and closes this chapter of her life. Of course, there are questions that still remain, but life generally does that. :D I do have the next seasons ready to watch, but will give myself a breather to do a few other things in my life, as I am comfortable leaving it "here" for now.

pretty much exactly what I wanted!
...and I only say "pretty much" because it's an older style DVD packaging...but even that was great. I was a bit scared about buying things online again because I bought the first season online and it ended up being damaged...I didn't want to go through that again...so I made sure to really check the description closely this time when I ordered. It was in perfect condition and I love it! It's such a great series too...I've personally seen up to the middle of the fifth season, but I've got my mom hooked so we're starting from the beginning and watching it together! It's a really great bonding time for my mom and me! I love it! :)

Gilmores are Back!
Actually, my wife is the one who loves this (however, I really like it, too). She had fond memories of this one back in college (I think it was then) and talked about those days enough for me to move forward with these. Every season only pushes her forward that much quickly (she knocks these out in a few nights). Season three is nearly the best of the series (following only season one for greatness), after a bit of a dip in the second season, with Rory starting to move on with her life, as her time at Chilton comes to a close. This is by far some of her best moments (outside of the real drama in season six). One of the series' best episodes, "They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?", is here and "That'll Do Pig" is a good one, too (always thought Marion Ross' "Trix" and Dean's sister, Clara, were good comedy relief). A dramatic turn in Lorelai & Sookie's Independence-Dragonfly Inn situation occurs and Rory's college plans ... may not be Harvard???

Great for mother/daughter bonding!
My daughter and I watched all 7 seasons of the Gilmore Girls during her teenage years and loved it! Not only was it another way for us to bond, but it covered so many of the challenges that teenagers go through, from friends, to boyfriends, to preparing for and choosing a college. By the time my daughter was applying to colleges, we knew what to expect (and we were looking for that large envelope in the mail, which we got, and unfortunately which they no longer do…it's all my email now). It's a great, wholesome series that I highly recommend every mom watch with her daughters. It offers plenty of opportunities for discussion of situations they may encounter in their own lives. My daughter even puts it on when she comes home for college breaks because it's very comforting to watch.

Just SUPERB DIRECTING.....Just a delight to watch!
My wife and I are listening AND WATCHING this week and next! The Production is SUPERIOR! The colors, the content keeps moving - maybe 2 or 3 developing during one Episode. 6 parts to an Episode...there are 26 Episodes to a Season. It's just wonderful. AS IF YOU WERE THERE!
