Woah, I can't believe you watch the Gilmore Girls!

What did they say?  I can just see it:

teen girl #1: Isn't that Jim James guy a hottie?
teen girl #2: Yeah, but his band is okay, I guess. But they have too many songs about Jesus?
teen girl #1: Yeah, what IS that about?  I just think the way they dress is cool.
teen girl #2: I bet my parents would be so pissed if I dated Jim James!
teen girl #1: Sweet!
teen girl #2: I know!
teen girl #1: You little slut!
teen girl #2: Shut up!

I didn't say that;  I was commenting on how a mainstream, successful television show had dialog that was concerning MMJ.  Accordingly, those thoughtful souls who write for the show are either fans themselves, or have heard about MMJ, and the audience (myself not included, despite the hottness of the stars) gets a free education about our favorite band.

I don't care if Girls Gone Wild mentions MMJ - just about any name-dropping is awesome to me.

defensive much?  Chill out.  I thought i quoted racsan, but I accidentally quoted you.  I too think the name dropping is cool.  I still have the seventeen that the boys were in after ISM came out (I got it from my little sister), because I think it's hilarious but obviously good for the band.

So, seriously, what did they say?  I won't tease you all anymore about watching the Gilmore Girls?  Rascan?  Conaway? Anyone?

sometimes at work, i will hear the dave ramsey people playing bits of mmj songs into and back from commercials. the producer digs them, and those tiny bits of song bring so much light into an otherwise abysmal experience. i imagine the same must be true for the gilmore girls.

The Gilmore Girls reference 'hip' pop culture often. In one episode a year or two ago, there was a scene involving mistrels playing in the park. One group of minstrels playing live (and were actually playing live!) was Sonic Youth. I'm not a fan of the show (my wife is an addict) but it has some pretty clever dialogue and I admire any program that mentions Frank Zappa in a non-throwaway kind of way.

can't remember the exact dialogue but it went something like this:

dude at restaurant. mix cd. classic rocky. my morning jacket. neil young. wolfmother. led zeppelin. omelet. steak sandwich. circumcision.

That's a good mix CD, except for the last part...
