BiD: Break it Down • Gilmore Girls

Original Air Date: May 4, 2010 BiD Recording Date: August 23, 2026 More lies, huh? Call her Cammie, call her Millie, call her Bonnie - Ms. Braverman-Bedelia is a (high) class act. Also: Jabar is a soccer superstar, Julia suddenly has time to be a coach, Max is just a dick, Crosby has Brenda hair, Haddie is a queen, Danny is on board with cufflinks, and Briana is thrilled to see such amazing female...

Original Air Date: April 27, 2010 BiD Recording Date: August 16, 2026 I think he might be talking about your vag . Modern day attention spans may be super short, but Danny’s memory for a semen-al movie day with Briana is long and strong. This ep is a goody bag of assholes (Sydney), dancing daddy PK, teens feeling sexy (gross), a 90210 alum, flirting lesbians, celebrating shit (literally), and slee...

Original Air Date:  April 20, 2010 BiD Recording Date: August 9, 2026 You declared your independence early on and you went for it. You have to honor that person that you are because I do. B&D navigate the treacheries of too-close-to-home-fedoras, primal Craig, bored children, and parents’ favorites. All that plus tiny pieces of cake, Joelia, Crosmine, Huge Baby Jabar, and Not-Alfre-Woodard.

Original Air Date: April 13, 2010 BiD Recording Date: August 3, 2026 Yes, he’s scruffy - he looks like Mark Ruffalo.  Join B&D for an ep that has it all: climaxing and crestfallen faces, metaphoreplay and morning milkshakes, flashcards and fuck towers, a horny accent lady at a pool and Nate Fisher back at the beach. 

Original Air Date: April 6, 2010 BiD Recording Date: July 27, 2026 This is me, now. B&D swoon over a few good men: adorable Mark, amazing Joel(ski), and reliable/hairy-chested Adam. They wonder about people recreating their own family’s size, what was happening with the voluminous hair here, and if men fake orgasms. The laugh and furrowed brow of Julia Roberts permeate this ep, as does pushy H...

Original Air Date: March 30, 2010 BiD Recording Date: July 15, 2026 There’s no way you could make up that name. B&D give a 👍🏽 to bringing back the intro singing, PK throwing a ball, the Entertainment Weekly bulls-eye, and darling Mark & Joel. Bare feet on public transportation and anything Steve get a 👎🏽. Plus, find out what location Briana has always wanted to…!

Original Air Date: March 23, 2010 BiD Recording Date: July 8, 2026 If it’s any consolation, you’ll always be the most important man in my life. Yo yo yo…how much does it rock on a dock? B&D (future writers of The Cable Car Diaries ) reminisce about drought culture and character-building embarrassment. PK is a sexy super-uncle, EC is an instant slither-cream aunt, and Crosby won’t stop until Ja...

Original Air Date: March 16, 2010 BiD Recording Date: June 28, 2026 Oh dear GOD, it’s come to this? B&D welcome back PK’s beautiful chest (hair) and enjoy SJ’s own pec debut! They applaud great smiles, female car-fixers, and  vehicular emotions. They grimace at child puke, Crosby snubbing King Jabar, and Oprah comparisons. What an ensemble of swimmers!

Original Air Date: March 9, 2010 BiD Recording Date: June 15, 2026 You know guys, it’s not too late to learn some parenting skills. B&D applaud sarcasm and “Chuckslist,” but disapprove of the Parenthood theme song’s cast billing and Raquel’s brand of cuntiness. The Bravermans run deep, unfortunately juice boxes do not, and the 6FU-GG-PH continuum continues…

Original Air Date: March 2, 2010 BiD Recording Date: June 7, 2026 Any kind of toast. That’s basically how I live my life. I love toast. B&D are back with their third series to BiD! The connections from Parenthood to Six Feet Under and Gilmore girls start with PK and LG, but there are oh so many more. As they give some backstory on the casting, this pilot brilliantly establishes characterizatio...

Original Air Date: November 25, 2016 BiD Recording Date: May 16, 2026 I can’t spend anymore time and energy on artifice and bullshit. B&D reach the end of  Gilmore girls at last, and enjoy 2 Pop Tarts apiece before those Final Four Words. Blondist Coffee Non-Snob Danny is thrilled to see Peter & Jason, but repulsed by the Life & Death Brigade trash.  Briana is inspired by Emily’s breez...

Original Air Date: November 25, 2016 BiD Recording Date: May 2, 2026 Can we talk about this at home? This IS home. Does Brian McKnight ever cross your mind…anytime…? He does for B&D, as does falling asleep to TV.  We’ve got some hot takes for this penultimate episode: They don’t know what to do with Gg in summer because they’ve never had to. Rory is an alcoholic. A Hot Woman is hard to define....

Original Air Date: November 25, 2016 BiD Recording Date: April 19, 2026 Sorry - did I accidentally step into 2003? As we lose our hair, we gain a smorgasbord of cameos - from Mr. Kim to LG’s Best Gay to LG’s other daughter Mae! In an episode full of a “wanting more” theme, we pine for more Bathroom Breakdown Paris and one night stands for Lorelai. Also: Will B&D be responsible for AYITL Part 2...

Original Air Date: November 25, 2016 BiD Recording Date: April 11, 2026 I don’t wanna have sex with anyone EVER. B&D step, step back into the gazebo and the world of Gilmore girls (sans theme song)!  This is only the third watch of A Year in the Life for both of them. Paris’ hair is great, Lane’s is not, and Paul is treated poorly. B&D are amused by Luke’s updated sign, horrified by César’...

Original Air Date: May 15, 2007 BiD Recording Date: March 22, 2026 I just like to see you happy. The 22 numerology for this series finale is wild! Danny is tickled by Emmy and rollercoaster shoutouts, while Briana defends being unfocused at work and despises “networking.” While we miss Paris and Mama, we LOVE Lane and L&L in the rain. The number crunching continues with 7 seasons of stats, all...

Original Air Date: May 8, 2007 BiD Recording Date: March 15, 2026 You’re the top. B&D are the (pen)ultimate duet partners, deserving of their toast. In between the usual nonsensical side-talk, they side-eye Logan’s cringey proposal and applaud Rory’s decision. Briana is stunned she never got earrings from Peter back in the day, but hey - she’ll always have Paris.  Pop Tart Pause: Toast

Original Air Date:  May 1, 2007 BiD Recording Date: March 7, 2026 It will always be your house in your heart. Of course B&D have some qualms with this antepenultimate episode - why can’t Rory just walk to her potential NYC job? Did she really come home for an under-an-hour nap? Why isn’t Lorelai driving her old (engine transplanted) jeep? But those grievances fall by the wayside once Zach and...

Original Air Date: April 24, 2007 BiD Recording Date: February 28, 2026 Sometimes choosing to be apart means choosing to be apart. We’ll always have Paris, and this is one of the last great showcases for such a dynamic character. In between her crossroads ups & downs, B&D mull their notoriety at Clark Street Diner, “Friend’s BF/Spouse” relationships, and Briana’s astonishing 6 years expire...

Original Air Date: April 17, 2007 BiD Recording Date: February 22, 2026 That’s wonderful. What a great way for a nine year old to see the world. B&D pay their respects to McSteamy and salty nuts in their mouths, but Danny has no respect for despicable Logan in this ep. Meanwhile, Briana detests “touché.” There’s no “repressed judgement” here, just questions! How come the two (presumable) Gilmo...

Original Air Date: March 6, 2007 BiD Recording Date: February 8, 2026 You marry a man, you marry his junk.   B&D literally finish each other’s sentences as they BiD in person together just down the street from “Winkie’s.” They recount their LA moonpie search, applaud Rory’s outfit and actions, and commend “showing grace” to others. Sifting through Kathy Faker, Kathy Baker and Kathy Bates is en...

Original Air Date: February 27, 2007 BiD Recording Date: January 25, 2026 In my experience, if a man describes himself as bald - there is nary a hair. B&D recommend always holding onto a seat at a cafe. Briana mourns in-person meetings and forbids cutting photographs. Danny has never been more Sour on that monster Logan, but fortunately the Lane/Rory scene that features this episode’s title is...

Original Air Date: February 20, 2007 BiD Recording Date: January 20, 2026 Mother, are you on peyote? B&D toast their genus vocabulary with mocktails, but only hers has iodine (that apparently makes her do push-ups). There’s praise for Czuchry’s ass, acting, and bangs-free face; confirmation that soup & salad IS a meal;  and establishing what it means to get Hearded/Nagatani’d. Christopher...

Original Air Date: February 13, 2007 BiD Recording Date: January 8, 2026 I need you to know that you’re the man I want to want. Simone and Wylder join B&D for one more BiD from Nelson - the Stars Hollow of New Zealand. Sim1 remains mostly unimpressed by the emotional resonance of the ep, but maybe that’s just how Rat Tail Survivors operate. They muse about Senior Survival Kits and vegan cookin...

Original Air Date: February 6, 2007 BiD Recording Date: December 28, 2025 My husband’s not here. That’s not okay, Chris. It’s not okay. B&D thought Wylder would chime in for the BiD, but she’s not here for it… like she is for Danny’s vocabulary! Fortunately her barely-interested, beefy legs-hating mother Simone joins for this phone-heavy ep. Facts: New Zealand iced tea sucks, Philadelphians ar...

Original Air Date: January 30, 2007 BiD Recording Date: December 14, 2025 You’re a person of great heart and great character. That combination always wins. B&D love a good muffin top…just keep your paws off it! LG/LG once again demonstrate how amazing they both are with children, Anna once again shows what a **** she is, and lil’ bitch Christopher’s flat screen TV is downright lil.’ Also: Mrs....
