S6E17 - Birth of Horrified Hosts. Their Names are Paige and Grant

8/15/2020

Content warning: This week, both Gilmore Girls and Dragon Ball Z do a very bad job of handling sensitive subjects. For Gilmore Girls, it’s stalking, gas-lighting, and escaping bad relationships. For Dragon Ball Z, it’s sexual harassment. We talk about it a lot in the episode, so if either of those are especially sensitive for you, please be advised.

Normally we’d talk about things like the first appearance of Gotenks, or Zack and Mrs. Kim writing a “hit” song together so he could marry Lane. Those are both bonkers. Unfortunately the episode pulled a weird left turn by having Goku offer every woman he knows up to get groped by a stranger, and Gilmore Girls dipped its toe in bad relationship dynamics it wasn’t equipped to handle. So we talk about that a lot, while hoping the shows get back into their comfort zones next week.
