The saddest moment definitely is Richards death 😢😭

[@jessicakenny3069]

One of the saddest moments is in season 6 episode 22 when Lorelei gives Luke an ultimatum to finally get married then walks away. Her crying "don't you love me? I love you, Luke! I *love* you!" Then at the end of their fight giving up with "and I have to go" then walking off, it kills me every time!!!

[@lizaharris5026]

Emily crying when Richard first has a heart attack and telling him tearfully that she wants to go first.

[@Naomiiiish]

Richards death was the saddest. And after when Lorelai called Emily and told her about Richard saving the day for her in school❤

[@I_love_cats5160]

For me is when lane cries how Henry said he asked someone else to prom

the "You may go first" line hits even harder when you know that Emily in fact didn't get to go first.

[@Danielle0785]

Emily’s reaction to seeing where Lorelai and Rory lived at the inn when she was a baby always makes me sad.

[@hablah9743]

Bit on the fence with this one because she's obviously shocked and saddened that Loralai chose to live there instead of with her but she gets angry about it too, which is the wrong thing to take away from seeing that

[@Danielle0785]

@@hablah9743oh absolutely it's an on the fence moment. That's why it makes me sad actually. You can see she regrets it but then she gets mad because she's Emily Gilmore and she was obviously the wronged party in all of it!

@@hablah9743it perfectly demonstrates why Lorelai couldn’t return to Emily. Emily learned nothing.

[@zumann874]

for me the saddest scene was when jess breaks down to his dad saying "you have nothing? i have nothing! i have no place to go". people demonize him for how he was as a 16 year old. but the fact is he had such a messed up childhood with no one being able to be there for him and that obviously affected him a lot. and to see him grow up from there and become a great man is so satisfying!

[@snoozyq9576]

@That Nerdy girl Tarini the only person that boy needed to be seeing was a therapist

[@laurenc4138]

@@snoozyq9576 yeah I couldn’t stand his character, I understood why he was the way he was, but he continuously dragged people down with him which made me hate him, until after his break up with Rory, then he actually had character growth and he became a decent man instead of just the obnoxious “misunderstood” bad boy. Everyone cut him way too much slack, he needed Luke but at times I wish Luke was a little harder on him cause that’s what he needed. I’m glad he later realized how awful he treated people and made amends and actually made something of himself, ironically Rory who he credits for helping him to become a good man, gets worse as the seasons go on. It feels like everyone on the show had genuine believable character growth, meanwhile Rory actively turns into a worse person as the seasons go by.

Jess had the best redemption in the new series.

[@benfulfer3260]

It is sad but also satisfying and somewhat happy

[@jessicawright2117]

THIS. I know the revival is highly criticized but that moment was the most beautiful scene ever

[@underthemilkywayy]

ok I was wondering about this. it was the only moment of the show I cried. I also thought luke and lorelai's break up at the end of season 6 after finding out about april should have been on here.

[@noragleason8884]

yes I was crying happy tears because Emily was so happy

[@candyb2205]

my number one is when Loreli gives Luke an ultimatum about marrying her and when he finally comes round to the idea of doing it as soon as possible she tells him that she slept with Christopher. the way Luke drives away without saying a word leaving Loreli on her doorstep kills me everytime. 💔💔💔

[@edmundoboone1259]

It makes me more angry than sad, it's the first time on the show that I hate Lorelai.

[@newageBoundhippie]

the only good things to come from that sequence of frustrating events were Luke sucker punching Christopher as he answers the door & the brawl in the town square

Mrs Kim kicking out Lane made me both sad and angry. I'm glad she eventually realized that her daughter is an individual person and she couldn't keep controlling every aspect of her life. But the fact she consistently denied her her individuality for so many years and made her feel like she had to hide it made Mrs Kim a complicated character to like at first.

​@@oooh19 what is weird is rory and logan cheating as adults. jess still having feelings for rory and wanting the best for her is not weird!

[@dannysimion]

I was also sad seeing Max Medina and Lorelai not making it the altar as well. I was actually rooting for those two early on the show before Luke even came into the picture seasons later. Another moment was seeing Emily looking at the room that Lorelai was living in while taking care of an infant Rory realizing a lot of moments she missed because of her contemptuous relationship with her daughter.

[@lauriecarson6483]

It wasn't sad at all. Lorelai didn't love him so why go through with the marriage.

I didnt care for Max. He was not a good fit for her or Rory He was upset that Lorali didnt tell Rory to come in after her date. He was trying to be her dad. that wouldve never worked. He didnt like how they were as mom and daughter. didnt like him .

Two moments in the last episode. First was when Richard tells Lorelei that the going away party for Rory wasn't only for Rory. The other scene is when Rory is getting ready to leave and Lorelei keeps suggesting things for Rory to take and Rory tells her You've given me everything I need.

[@CDG1228]

I agree with the Richard part and what annoyed the snot out of me was Emily interrupting him. It was very rare to see that kind of emotion from Richard and she just couldn't let him finish.

[@SheldonMoonsmom2019]

You missed the scene where Lorelai is sitting in Luke’s with Luke after the diner is closed. This is right after she finds out about Sheri and Chris having a baby and she’s devastated. She then says to him “I’m never gonna have it. The whole package. Now he gets to have it with her.” I never fully understood that line until I got older.

[@simplyxvioletOfficialYT]

I knew from the first episode, Luke and Lorelei would end up together and were destined to be together.

[@victorsardaneta8727]

It's heavily implied by her saying "Should I date Luke?"

[@richerthanastronauts]

Obvi Luke likes to keep his feelings lowkey, but being in love with Lorelai was very obvious

[@suze6083]

Saddest 3 moments for me were 1. when Lorelei cried to Luke about Christopher, that she really wants it, everything and thinks she’ll just never have it “…the white picked fence…” and that Christopher got his life together just to have all that with someone else. Also 2. when Lorelei cries to Luke on a bench about how her grandmother called her a charity case and how she felt she was failing and needed a loan because she was running out of money for the inn. 3. In the revival that musical scene “unbreakable”…because once you grow older and realize that there are no dreams left and life didn’t go as you thought it would - the result of all your choices wrong or right and maybe certain things just weren’t in the cards for you…this actually is the saddest thing…the what ifs and the feeling of time running out…the never or now…very sad actually. These 3 moments actually had me in tears.

I think Rory’s whole relationship to Jess was kinda sad because although they loved each other dearly, they had issues from the very beginning which they didn’t want to discuss or weren’t aware of or didn’t want to be aware of it. That was made clear in the revival. That being said, an honorable mention should’ve been the scene in which Jess appears out of the blue at Sukis wedding, they share a moment and she leaves for that camp. Poor Jess

I think one of the saddest moments in gilmore girls is when Logan leaves Rory at her college graduation after she turned down his mariage proposal.

[@mclovin1981]

I just started watching Gilmore girls again and it affected me deeply. The first time I watched the show, I was in high school and naturally my main character was Rory. I cared about her decisions and I was watching her story. I went to a private school where everyone was extremely competitive, and the parts of the show I cared about were Rory's life. Now I'm an adult who goes to work in the morning and comes home in the evening. I don't have a child, but Lorelai's fight with life and family, always trying to hold on to life, standing somehow made me feel different. While I enjoyed parts of Rory, my main focus and parts of empathy were Lorelai and her life. It's like watching the show for the first time. The series puts me in a sad nostalgic mood for some reason. Maybe I should face the fact that I can't be younger anymore and say goodbye to Rory.

[@victorsardaneta8727]

They did what they thought was best for her (At least Emily). The issue was that Lorelai was too different from her parents and they never understood her. She was also too proud at times, like when Emily offered to help with the house in Season 2.

for me when lorelai asked for marriage got me to tears. For the first time i saw her vulnerable, her voice were deep and cracked. I cannot count how many times i watched that scene.

[@chellechilderson7656]

In the revival when Rory goes to their house to write and she’s walking thru the rooms and different memorable scenes show with them in the past and with Richard. This moment had me bawling like a baby and does every time I watch it.

what about the ultimatum at the end of season 6? what about “i slept with christopher” in 7.1? not even an honorable mention for emily’s sad moment at the end of “scene in a mall”?

[@Tessiefaye]

I can not believe that people actually got mad a Dean for dumping that a hole Rory for her and Jess totally disrespecting him for weeks. She deserved it and he was being clingy because he was trying to hold on to someone that didn't deserve him.

[@maytalacedo20]

the one that did affect me was Richard almost died was really scary to watch since it happened in a presentation classroom with Rory watching her grandfather do this in a classroom it was a lot of shock.

In #2 "you may go first" he didn't have a heart attack. He had chest pain, but it wasn't a heart attack, it was angina. The heart attack happened in season 7.

Y'know, at first I really disliked him, but he grew so much. When he came back and wished Rory a happy birthday after they'd argued my heart melted toward him. And by the time AYITL came around, I was just like "Girl, open your eyes! He's right in front of you!" 😊

The whole episode where Luke and lorelai were broken up for the first time and she sends him the voice mail begging him to come over

[@lizaharris5026]

when Lorelai tells Christopher that seeing him come after her after wanting to go back to his girlfriend, when Rory puts Christopher in his place and says she chose not to text him back, when we have the flashback and Lorelei is sitting alone at the hospital with no family around, when Luke's family member dies.

[@louise_fly]

Its random but I just realized that Lane is wearing the same blue T-shirt with rainbows that Lorelai was wearing

[@Mr.Awesome-j1n]

I watched this entire show. And basically it's about a mom and daughter who make absolutely god awful decisions in life. But Paris is great.

[@leobrussel9471]

Number 6 on this list is number 1 on mine. Loralie singing I Will Always Love You, first to her daughter and then morphing into a halting and tender torch song to Luke. With only 2 episodes to go in the series, it also serves as a heart-ripping farewell to all of us. Not a dry eye in the house.

[@isaacfari3927]

I don't know if anyone liked Tristan's storyline, but in my opinion I also find it very sad when he wanted to kiss Rory goodbye when he told her he was leaving Chilton to enter a military school, low-key wanted both of them to have a more developed enemies to lovers story than just a kiss at a party, like i´m not justifying the way he treated her at the beggining of the show but i think we would´ve been a great boyfriend

[@sblood311]

Strong disagree with 6 and 5. 6 was a bit sad but honestly, the extreme second hand embarrassment is too much for me. And 5? That is probably the absolute worst moment on the show. Lorelei was being incredibly stupid in those episodes. IMO 1. Rory remembers Richard 2. "You may go first" 3. Rory says no to Jess 4. Lorelei remembers her dad 5. Flashback of when Lorelei runs away from home 6. Rory wonders why Logan doesn't like her 7. Christopher interrupts Friday night dinner 8. Rory's graduation speech 9. Luke finds Jess after the car accident "I made sure she was okay." 10. Emily asks Mia for pictures of the time she missed

[@Essenceofblood5238]

Huh?! Ok, few things: 1. Here's a strong disagree with YOUR number six. Talk about secondhand embarrassment! That wasn't sad in the slightest. It was extremely laughable. "Pathetic" doesn't even begin to describe Rory's behavior here. 2. In regards to Mojo's #5, how exactly was Lorelei being "stupid" in these episodes? Let me remind you that Rory is the one who wants to drop out of school and completely derail her life all because of ONE bad review from ONE arrogant asshole! Really? Fragile self-esteem and stupidity on grotesque display if I ever saw it. Anyone with common sense knows who the truly stupid person was throughout that story arc! 3. It should be painstakingly obvious to the even the most casual viewer that the hands-down #1 saddest moment on this show (including the revival) was Richard DYING! The beloved, steadfast patriarch who was instrumental in the family dynamic (especially when it came to leveling out Emily) was up and snatched away. It threw everyone for a loop, but certainly none as hard as his widow, shaken to the very core of her existence! Why does no one seem to get that? I think all of 1 commenter has pointed this out thus far! In fact, about half of your list is full of stuff that might be considered slightly sad, but certainly doesn't rack up as the saddest moments on the entire show! However flawed Mojo's list might be (either with its choices or ranking order), it's still by far a superior list to yours. And EIGHT people rallied behind this? Now that's just sad... 🙄

[@sblood311]

@@Essenceofblood5238 Woah okay... Firstly, there are many things that make a scene sad. Yes, in my #6 Rory is being sensitive sure. She's also a 20 year old girl who's been rather sheltered experiencing her first adult relationship trouble. It's a hard thing for most of us. And in my opinion, what makes this part sad goes deeper than just Rory. I don't know your story or if you have your own children but watching your child go through such a hard time is so difficult. And Lauren Graham killed this scene to me. As for the whole Rory dropping out of Yale bit... Okay so yes, Rory couldn't handle her first bout criticism and yes, dropping out of Yale was not her smartest decision. The thing about Rory is that her whole life she's been pushed into being a certain person. She's been told several times on the show alone that she's the "great hope" of her family, the Lorelei that Lorelei was supposed to be. Lorelei has been pushing her to Harvard her whole life. It is so much pressure for a young person. While Rory was busy getting perfect grades and trying to live up to the angel child reputation, other children her age were figuring out who they were and making the mistakes Rory was pressured not to make. I understand her crisis of faith. And as we see in the revival, Rory is not a journalist, she's not. It is implied several times throughout the series. The problem I have is Lorelei, she's supposed to be this super supportive and understanding mother but here sits her daughter, having a complete crisis of faith, clearly upset and scared and instead of talking to her like an adult, instead of trying to understand what is happening to her child, she steam rolls her. As Lorelei always does when Rory does something that goes against her plan. She refuses to help her of she doesn't do exactly as she wants. She cuts her off. Then she has the temerity to get mad when Rory goes to her grandparents for help. I'm sorry if you disagree but in my opinion, this is one of Lorelei's worst parenting choices. And finally, yes, we all can agree that Richard dying was the saddest thing to happen on the show. However I don't consider this to be a "moment" but a storyline. I have included a couple moments within this storyline. Moments that I felt captured the saddest and most poignant feelings that go along with the death of their patriarch. It's totally okay to disagree with my opinion. That's totally cool, but they are MY opinions 🤷

[@janbarrett4544]

I was most moved by the final episode where the whole town shows up to bid Rory adieu .Very surprised it wasn't mentioned...I always tear up for that one.

For me it's the Lane/Miss Kim scene if only for the weight being lifted off of Lane's shoulders only to be rejected and thrown out for being who she is. There's a hope there that is dashed that only highlights that these two don't know each other at all like Lorelai and Rory do; THAT is Lane's wish that will most likely never come true in that moment.

[@samychafa6324]

One of the saddest scenes in GG was in season 6 when Rory tells Jess she's in love with Logan, you can see all the mess that was happening in her head through her eyes :(

[@1omarella]

Another honorable mention for me would be Emily and the plane. So rarely does she show how she feels. The hurt she had of feeling invaluable to her husband, no longer serving her wifely duties as a rich businessman’s wife. It’s a posh privileged life, of course, but she dedicated her life to it. To standing by a man and helping him to become successful. I can’t imagine feeling tossed aside and worthless like that. It was heartbreaking.
