That Damn Christopher Hayden

Tara Llewellyn & Haley McIntosh
About this episode

We're finally unpacking one of the most complicated relationships on this show. The one that started it all, the marriage that may not have been valid in the United States: Christopher and Lorelai. We opened up the floor on our Instagram stories for your questions on these two, and boy did you deliver!!! This week, we discuss what we thought of Chris growing up, if Lorelai told Chris where she was going when she left her parents' house, and whether or not Chris ever really cared about Rory or if he only showed up for her to get to Lorelai? Grab a cup of coffee, and get VERY comfortable for part one of a two-part episode because we had so much more to say!

As always if you have more to say, call in at 860-578-4653. We love hearing from you!

And be sure to join our Patreon for our spoiler-FULL rewatch, Gilmore Revisited as we recap Season 4!
