Gabbing Gilmore: A Gilmore Girls Deep Dive28 Mai 2025

54. Carrie Bradshaw x Lorelai Gilmore

As the new season of And Just Like That returns, we have to wonder… is Carrie Bradshaw anything like our beloved Lorelai Gilmore?

In today’s deep dive, sisters Jackie and Catherine analyze the similarities between two popular protagonists of the early 2000s: Carrie Bradshaw (in the Sex and the City days) and Lorelai Gilmore from Gilmore Girls.

Topics include:

Why did both characters deeply crave independence? How did it impact their lives and romantic relationships? Where was Carrie’s family?
Are they both “pick me” girls, or simply free-spirited unique women?
Lorelai and Carrie’s relationship to food, exercise, and their bodies
What they have in common when it comes to the hot button issues: politics and money!
And, of course, the men in their lives. Does Luke Danes have anything in common with Mr. Big? Where did Jason Stiles and Aleksandr Petrovsky both go wrong?
