In ‘Keg! Max!‘, Max Medina makes his final appearance on Gilmore Girls. Does that make you sad? Whether you were a big fan of Max or not, I think he played a big role in Lorelai’s life.
- He shows Lorelai that men in her life can be beneficial to Rory
- He’s the first person Lorelai agrees to marry (though they never do marry)
- He helps Lorelai understand what it means to spend ones life with someone
- He helps Lorelai figure out what it is she wants to do with her future (both in terms of her career and her personal life)
- He shows Lorelai, perhaps, that she cannot play with the feelings of others if she’s not sure of her own self
- He always showed respect to both Lorelai and Rory
- He showed Lorelai that romance was possible in her life
Can you think of other reasons why Max was important to Gilmore Girls?
