I don't know what fandom consensus is with GG tbh lol, I just assumed that Girls in Bikinis, Boys Doing The Twist wouldn't be considered one of the classic episodes because it doesn't involve anything with Lorelei and her parents, but yeah Paris was so great in that episode! I loved her and Rory just not particularly wanting to go outside their hotel room and take part in the activities, it felt like a very Gilmore Girls way of handling the somewhat clichéd college Spring Break plot

I think a lot of my faves also comes from Gilmore Family Conflicts.

:nods: Basically throw Emily into an episode, and it's usually a win for me! When I was first considering my list I was going to include the first three episodes of season 1 as well actually, Rory bonding with her grandfather for the first time in episode 3 is especially sweet, but I had to cut it down a bit unfortunately or I would have ended up listing about 5-6 episodes from each season *g*
