10 Things You Learn Rewatching Gilmore Girls

10. Richard's Least Favourite Food

Emily and Richard clearly have a refined palette because during their Friday night dinners, they only have the most exquisite meals. But there is one food which Richard seems to detest and it isn't something like a pop tart or a takeaway burger - it's fish.

In the episode "Love and War and Snow", whilst Richard and Emily are unusually eating a frozen pizza, Richard remarks that it is actually quite good and better than the salmon that keeps showing up. Later on in season six when Rory takes over the DAR event, he thanks her for not serving the salmon puffs. And then in season seven, after Richard's heart attack, Emily seems to be develop an obsession with fish, to which he repeatedly tells her over and over that he hates it.

Yes, it is a frivolous trait about Richard Gilmore, but it is very cleverly written in as part of his character.
