Yesterday, shopping at Border's, I saw a ray of light come through the ceiling and alight on an endcap in the DVD section. Angels sang, and I walked in a hypnotic trance, grabbed the holy relic, and ran to the nearest checkout.
Gaze upon the glory of The Gilmore Girls full series DVD set:
It's the very definition of awesomeness. Awesomosity. Awesomtastic. I should just invent more words to describe it.
And my wife doesn't even appreciate it! She just rolls her eyes at me.

I am so jealous. I really wanted it, but I already have all the seasons individually...so it seems a little wasteful to buy the boxed set also
Comments by Amanda
Dear Mr. Avitable,
I am so sorry to inform you, you are as queer as a three dollar bill.

I have them all bar season 7 which doesn't seem to be out here for some reason...
Bloody hell, that skipping booby emoticon looks very painful
Comments by Dee
Wheee, a new image!!
Comments by Angel
I have never seen this show. Does that make me less gay than you? Because, even though I've not seen it, I do hear that it is total chick TV...
Comments by usedtobeme
There are times when I am truly worried about your mental stability.
This is one of those times.
Comments by NYCWD
I am totally jealous of you! I want that boxset so very badly!!!!!!!!!
Comments by DaDuck
I'm rolling my eyes at you too. The gilmore girls? please.
Comments by Functionally ReTodded
Sheesh... no one's giving you a break on this one! Personally, I think it's only gay if you've got the full Sex and the City Beauty Boxset too!!!
Robyn
PS - The Gilmore Girls??? Isn't that a show about some neurotic melodramatic chicks that talk too fast? :|
Comments by borysSNORC ™
Mr. Avitable,
It seems you are running out of shit to spend your money on.
We should discuss my pay.
Love,
Miss Britt
Comments by Miss Britt
My daughter wanted that for Christmas....does that make you a 16 year old girl??
LOL I just noticed the nut sack!!
Comments by metalmom
It's heartwarming to see someone embrace their "inner child".
Comments by AnnieB
Fine. I give up. You're gayer than I am. Is that what you wanted to hear?
Comments by Mr. Fabulous
Just tell me you're not going to play with the paper dolls.
Have fun,
J.
Comments by HoosierGirl5
i've never seen the show. yet surprisingly i can appreciate that your wife rolled her eyes at you.
Comments by hellohahanarf
I was a Gilmorephile until Jess left. I still loved the show but a hole was left in my heart.
Comments by Robin
Lordy, lordy, lordy. I do not think you can get your man card back after that.
Comments by themuttprincess
Um... just... no.
Comments by RW
And I thought I was the only nearly 40 year old guy who loved that show.
Comments by Jay
this is just so cute about you.
Comments by Crys
Who are the Gilmore Girls? What are they?
Comments by Trish
Amanda, I never bought the seasons, so I'm glad I did. It's still worth it, though - there is a glossary that goes through all of the obscure references used throughout the whole series, too.
Mary, I don't like that phrase, and just because I love Gilmore Girls and ABBA and talk on the phone for hours doesn't mean anything. Now please excuse me while I go ogle some penises.
BPR, this IS hairy gorilla Avitable!
CMG, it's all true.
Dee, you should just get this whole set. It's worth every penny.
Angel, eye rolling? At my awesomosity?
Usedtobeme, it's two hot chicks talking at breakneck speed about movies and television and using sarcasm and snappy humor.
NYCWD, have you ever watched it?
DaDuck, you should buy it! It's only money.
Todd, you know you love it.
Borys, well, I didn't like Sex and City enough to buy the series. It was a good show, though.
Britt, only if you watch Gilmore with me and declare your undying love for it.
Metalmom, well, umm, yes. And I'm okay with it.
AnnieB, it's an adult show for adults who are adults!
Fab, don't lose your crown yet, dancing queen.
HG5, I wish there were paper dolls!
Hello, it's a brilliant show.
Robin, I hated Jess!
TMP, I lost that a long time ago.
RW, it's very smartly written.
Jay, I'm only 30!
Crystal, thank you.
Trish, you don't know? It was a brilliant show on the WB about a mother and her daughter that she had when she was 15.
Comments by Avitable
I guess that's it for our friendship then huh?
Comments by Robin
Ooooo, pretty. Kate would kill for that! LOL Except she already has all the seasons on DVD and spent much of her entire summer vacation watching the entire series - twice!
Oh shit... I just realized, you might have more in common with my 12 year old.
Comments by Amy
And yes, I'm still irritated over the ending of that show.
And VM. Still pissed over VM.
Comments by Amy
Now, now don't have a temper tantrun. Since its target audience is predominantly young women I can see the appeal for you. Plus you're a sucker for anything Gilmore.
P. S. Just jerking you around. I love it and just got the box too!
Comments by AnnieB
I think Miss Britt is right.
I, too, roll my eyes at you.
Watch Dexter, dammit!
Comments by Sybil Law
Oh, I see now....I thought I saw paper dolls. Don't let them pick on you....everyone makes fun of me for my obsession with collecting "Monk", "Will and Grace" and "Numbers".
Besides, you don't have kids. You should get to have fun with YOUR money.
Spend it foolishly and tell me all about it.
J.
Comments by HoosierGirl5
those new smilies are too big...they are distracting. i don't mind boobs, just hate that the images are overwhelmingly large.
how do i get slick for smilies to actually work and keep them hidden? if i click it and they go away, next time i show up they are back. rrrrrrrrrrrr.
anyhow, i was going to say that i can't make too much fun of you for the gilmore girls because recently i found the "action figure" of david bowie as the goblin king in the labyrinth. found and purchased. yet i have not removed him from the box because the whole thing makes me happy. (i even named my dog ludo after that movie...love!)
so there. i'm a geek, too.
Comments by hellohahanarf
lmao! you are such a fruitcake! I've never seen that show ever, so I can't comment on it, but at first glance, it looks like you got a Barbie box set of some sort...lol enjoy your movies, avi....
Comments by Webmiztris
I have nothing to say to this other than I hate Lauren Graham in everything but Bad Santa.
And the new boobie bounce smiley makes me ill from all the bouncing. She's skipping rope?
Comments by Poppy
ermmmm k
:)
Comments by Christie
I love that you brought something packaged in a Barbie dream house and are openly flaunting it. Did it come with a free ass fucking too?
Comments by Gwen
I guess the reason this
is here is cause you don't have one anymore.
Sheesh–do you wear your jammies when you watch it?
Comments by Turnbaby
You hated Jess? Hmm... well, I don't know what to say to this. Dean was my least favorite because he was boring. Jess I wholeheartedly loved, but I think Logan was my favorite all around.
Comments by Amanda
also some of the seasons came with Gilmoreisms booklets, so I have part of it
Comments by Amanda
Good for you. It is a wonderful story and I only wish it would have continued for many more seasons. Gotta love that Luke...until he turned into an idiot.
Comments by CherylS
There has to be a Twelve-Step program for this, right?
Comments by BOSSY
Then I guess it doesn't really matter anymore. Might as well live it up!!!
Comments by themuttprincess
After the first three seasons, I think the show kind of lost its way, but I still feel it was one of the best-written series to air. I think showrunner Amy Sherman-Palladino has a new series in the works, so here's hoping...
Comments by Dave2
Now if they would just make a Happy Gilmore Girls DVD collection w/Adam Sandler, then we'd be able to talk.
And you know what, until I read this blog post, I had always had "Golden Girls" in my head whenever someone said "Gilmore Girls." I didn't know they were different!
My name is Wayne Hall and I'm a gilmoron.
Comments by Wayne
What the hell happened to the new smilies?
I 
them.
Comments by Angel
Awesome. And it comes with a cute handle, too! Now you can take them with you wherever...
Comments by cat
Robin, I'll give you this. Jess was good when he came back in the sixth season.
Amy, yeah, but she doesn't have the cool carrying case!
AnnieB, you did? Sweet.
Sybil Law, I've got the first season sitting here to be watched.
HG5, Monk is pretty awesome, too.
Hello, I got rid of the smilies, just for you.
Dawn, fruitcakes are tasty.
Poppy, I cannot understand how you can't love Gilmore Girls.
Christie, k erm?
Gwen, no, I had to pay for the assfucking.
Turnbaby, and I sip cocoa and giggle.
Amanda, Logan turned out pretty good.
CherylS, yeah, I know!
Bossy, it's an addiction I don't want the cure for!
TMP, damn straight.
Dave, yeah, the first three were definitely the snappiest. And her new show looks horrible, which makes me sad.
Wayne, Happy Gilmore Girls would be the best show/movie ever.
Angel, everybody thought they were too distracting.
Cat, exactly!
Comments by Avitable
my name is bo butler, and i am, as well, a gilmorephile.
and totally jealous of you and your awesomeocity. well done, sir.
Comments by bo
I don't think this one has jumped the Atlantic... I only know it as the show that beat Veronica Mars on savethatshow.com or whatever it was called. I think one of them was on an episode of Studio 60 - that makes it cool in my eyes.
Comments by Bec
Bo, where have you been, man!
Bec, it's a smart, sassy show about a 30-year old woman and her 15-year old daughter. I loved it.
Comments by Avitable
You are my idol. I want the complete series so badly, but my mother would make fun of me endlessly. I think we Gilmorephiles need a support group, people are always giving us crap.
Comments by Kylah
Oh my NOOOOO
You took away the walking awesome sweet ass!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Comments by turnbaby
ooh I want to buy it and should have bought it when I was over there (As they don't have THAT boxset here). But the airlines lost our luggage, there was a problem with the rental car, had to pay for the hotel with cash so we were short in total 1000 dollars that could have gone to my dvd boxset addiction:( I will have to wait until my parents come to visit and have them bring it to me for my birthday)
Still totally jealous of you and your ultmate gilmoreness. I have to have to sooth my tears with my cool ass Charmed boxset.
Comments by DaDuck
Kylah, just tell your mom that there's this 30-year old guy you know who also bought it.
Turnbaby, yeah, I am keeping it limited to normal smilies for the time being.
DaDuck, I also have the Seinfeld one, too!
Comments by Avitable
I can admit, he was a dick. He was immature and couldn't handle a relationship with Rory. I give you that, completely. But she never had chemistry with any other guy on the show like she did with Jess. I had hoped towards the end he would have grown up and they would have been amazing together. Too bad the real couple broke up, fucked that up.
Comments by Robin
Robin, when he came back as the author, that was cool.
Comments by Avitable
I agree, he was very different. I was sad she chose Logan.
Comments by Robin
not a big seinfeld fan. Well you can't always have great taste.
Comments by DaDuck
OMG! Do you rub Vick Vaporub on your penis while you watch?
Comments by DutchBitch
Robin, I think she and Lorelai should have made out.
DaDuck, not a big Seinfeld fan? GASP!
DB, only sometimes.
Comments by Avitable
nope. Never found him funny, and George just makes me want to rip my eyes out.
Comments by DaDuck
DaDuck, that's horrible.
