Come back Kevin (and Demi). Seriously, this is still my favorite podcast a decade later.

Just had to say your bit about Adnan Syed has not aged well and it’s not cool to say he’d go into a murderous rage when he say Lane’s character. Like what? Enjoy the podcast but some of these jokes need a little more thought. Like joking about 9/11? Also not cool. Pretty sure it was Kevin both times.

Deserving Top 100 All-Time
This is the ONLY podcast I re-listen to. Working from home, if I run out of new podcasts, I default back through these and they are an absolute delight. I find myself smiling and laughing out loud every time. What a treat when they dropped a new episode so many years later!

Recent Ep
I’m listening through the Bunhead Bros eps now. Maybe I’ve just kept up with Kevin more, but I was shocked at how deep Demi’s voice is now. I thought he had a cold or something. He’s just James Earl Jones now.

Listening again
I have started yet another rewatch and thought why not start a relisten as I watch the show. I wish there was a way to bookmark my favorite episodes. Demi and Kevin are a delight to listen to and I love this podcast. The first season or so there are some episodes that aren’t great so if there is one that you didn’t like maybe keep listening. Definitely the best Gilmore girls podcast there is.

Gilmore Guys podcast is awesome!

Love this!
I’m so sad that I didn’t get into podcasts until after this gem had concluded. I’ve been a Gilmore fan since it originally aired, so I’m bummed that I wasn’t able to be part of this amazing community and show, especially through the revival craze! This is the superior Gilmore Girls podcast and I will wholeheartedly stand behind that. In case you see this, Kevin and Demi, thanks for bringing joy to people even 10 years later!

Maisel Goys
Alice’s negativity and constant need to do some sort of bit completely ruined the show for me. I was all in for a rewatch and started listening to the show episode by episode but decided to quit because of Alice. I’m not into her schtick.

Can’t stop laughing
I adore this podcast. I listen while I clean and it makes the time fly by- I’m cracking up the entire time. They’re so quick, witty, and clever!

Gilmore guys 5 stars, Maisel goys 1
Gilmore guys are as good as Maisel goys is bad. Pro tip, if you hate a TV show, DON’T DO A PODCAST ABOUT IT.
Vaela V.
I love replaying them!
I’ve now started to listen to the podcast on a loop, just like I watch the show every couple years. Kevin and Demi are awesome, their podcast is now just as familiar and comfortable as Gilmore Girls is for me. I still laugh out loud on a regular basis

Reminds me how much I enjoyed Gilmore Girls
Had watched Gilmore Girls with my daughter years ago and we have decided to rewatch since I started listening to Gilmore Guys. They are adorable, though sometimes I swear they must get social points for all the times they mention black peoples in the show or question if they sound racist. They do sound racist in that they harp not stop. It’s Connecticut! And it is obvious these men haven’t been in a small town.

I listened to this podcast when it was currently on the air and it’s still a go to for me. Kevin & Demi are such a safe space for me. 😌

“Mansplaining Gilmore Girls”
This pod has aged so poorly! Gilmore Girls is such a wonderful show starring strong women and this show has so many takes that are unbelievably sexist and some downright disgusting. There’s a live episode with Jason Mantzoukas that should just be deleted immediately for everyone’s sake. I can’t believe this was so lauded in 2016 that they got actual cast interviews and walk-ons in the revival! Embarrassing.

So boring
No original commentary, very little about the show, just men who think they’re more interesting than they actually are

The guests! - but I just started
So I just started listening to this podcast (I know I’m WAY behind) I love it minus the guests that are on it so far….I hate that it’s people that have never watched the show and they hate it?! I LOVE this show and it’s kind of a bummer and mood killer. I’m assuming it gets better 🙃

Best Gilmore pod!
I have tried to listen to a few Gilmore themed podcasts and all have left me wanting. I love the hosts banter and their guests. I LOVE Jason Mantzoukas as well and was so excited to listen to his episodes! I am editing to add that I was really surprised to hear Alice is a fan favorite and that she was cohosting with Kevin for MMM. When Alice is on topic of the show, I think she has some good insights but the rest of the time she will make a joke then talk about how whacky what she just said was.. a lot of people aren’t liking the MMM recaps, I am about to get to that point and don’t have high hopes for it but will check it out

Loved GG and
Maisel’s back and better than ever.

Serious?
I wish I could tell if Alice was serious when she says she likes something. :/

Boring Hate-Fest (Maisel Goys)
I’m sad that “The Marvelous Mrs Maisel” is ending but not this podcast. Alice is so tedious & bitter which drags Kevin down with her. Here’s hoping for a recasting of the hosts for the next ASP project.

What happened
This podcast used to be enjoyable. Now they just go off on nonsensical tangents. It’s terrible. Guess that’s why they decided no to continue recapping the last season of Maisel.
Laurel303
Why?
Alice is so bothered that Rachel Brosnahan is not Jewish but playing a Jewish person. Hey Alice, did “Hamilton” bother you, too? If you have any integrity at all, you had to have been very much against nearly all of the casting of “Hamilton”! (Something tells me you weren’t, though.)

The actual best podcast
I love Gilmore Girls and I love this podcast.
Cerrim311
Good podcast
Good podcast. But too many race jokes that aren't funny and Kevin's laugh got so annoying. I had to stop at 611 cause the laugh got too obnoxious and annoying. Yes one white guy and one black guy. But the race comments were SUPER uncomfortable!

Good but crude
I’ve loved this since I became addicted to Gilmore Girls just before the revival came out. I’m enjoying rewatching the show while listening to the accompanying episodes of the podcast. I just could give it 5 stars because of all of the inappropriate humor. They get too graphic sometimes and it isn’t necessary-especially whenever they have Jason Manzoukas on. There’s so much good and fun about the show, just wish it was something I felt more comfortable recommending to my friends to listen along with too

Super fun pod!
I’m a new listener and have been loving every moment! Love your banter and humor. I scrolled through to your newest eps and was sad to see your last ep was in 2022. Please please make more - I recommend The Office! Love you guys! ♥️

Underdeveloped hate-watch Podcast?
The hosts are hilarious but sometimes it’s hard to listen to because the pace of the show is chaotic and the guests are mostly people who’ve never watched a single episode of GG and come on to talk about how much they don’t like it. The hosts are often making stuff up as they go, so the pod lacks structure and consistency, like they just said “hey wanna do a podcast?” but didn’t really put any thought into it. Their mocking sense of humor alongside the guests’ harsh criticisms make this come off as a disrespectful hate-watch podcast. And who wants that…? I’m trying to hang in there because there’s a disclaimer on the pilot episode that says it gets better lol, but when? I’m not even done with the first season and I’ve already had to skip 5 episodes out of frustration and annoyance.

So much fun re-listening
I’m listening to the epic Fall episode with Sarah, Aisha, Kevin, Demi. It’s such a great feeling-they get really loopy and I love it so much. A feel good listen

So awful it’s amazing!
Found this podcast a few years ago and replay episodes of my favorite guests during my Gilmore rewatch! MG is funny and so glad they did the new season

So fun!
Just found the Guys bc I was looking through the reviews of another rewatch and I’m super excited to have taken the advice to listen to the Guys instead! So good! Thank you!

Please don't bother making a season 5 if Alice will still be cohosting
Really hate giving this a one star because I loved Gilmore Guys and I even enjoyed the previous seasons of Maisel. But god this season was a bummer to listen to. I won't be listening next season if Alice is still on. If she is still on, please try and find some good in the art you're choosing to consume. Do I really know what's happening with the show anymore? Nope. But I came here for fun commentary and all I got was one host getting worked up over how much they hate the show (especially in the last episode, oof) and the other saying ah yeah, I guess I see why you feel that way. I didn't aways agree with the Gilmore Girls criticism but god at least they could be entertaining about it. I found myself getting defensive of Midge when I don't even like Midge. Please, just stop.

Magic!
Relistening for the 4th or 5th time, probably, and 605 (We’ve Got Magic to Do, with Sarah Heyward and Sarah Ramos) is such pure and sweet energy, while still being one of the most analytical episodes of the podcast. I feel like I am chatting with old friends about a show I love, and it’s both magical and comfortable at the same time. 💕

Love the pod!
Hey guys super late to listening but I love your podcast! As someone who grew up watching GG, I find that I agree with the majority of your thoughts. Except Jess. I love Jess. Haha. Thanks for doing the podcast!

Males misunderstanding female characters
We’ve great got a show that highlights female relationships and now it’s analyzed by men? So much of the depth and layers of the characters are missed. They flatten the well developed, multi-dimensional female characters. This is the commentary no one needed.

Bring back Demi!
Gilmore Guys was so special and the dynamic between Demi and Kevin was great. I appreciate Kevin coming back to cover Maisel. I’ve listened to each season but wow… Season 4. Alice apparently hates the show. Kevin is a a sweetpea. I am okay with critiquing but this isn’t supposed to be a hate watch.
Lauren_Miami
Love Gilmore Guys…but Maisel Goys is insufferable.
Please don’t have Alice on the show when she obviously A. Hates it and B. Doesn’t want to do it. I don’t think I have ever even reviewed a podcast before but after listening to half of the final 407 & 408 episode I just had to. Alice is absolutely insufferable. Kevin? You’re great.
Maddielk9080
A serious bummer of a podcast
I absolutley loved Gilmore Guys so it pains me to write this review but its deserved. Maisel Goys has become a sad and depressing hate watch of the show. Every season just gets more bleak and seems to just serve as a vehicle for the hosts to talk about themselves and bash Mrs. Maisel in every way. If you are so pained by watching it maybe its time to move on. Alice in particular seems to find her dislike of the show very funny for some reason and its very irritating . She mentions every chance she gets that shes an actor, writer etc but struggles to articulate a professional opinion and just comes off whiny and self serving. I tried to listen again this season but i found myself getting more depressed by the minute. If you like anything at all about watching the show, stay clear of this pod and look for something hosted by someone like Joanna Robinson who gets it.

My favorite podcast
I could listen to Kevin, Alice, and Demi talk about any topic! Thank you for the thoughtfulness with which you approach creating this podcast- it has provided me with so much joy!

No longer 5 out of 5 Mantzoukas’
Update 3/2022: Maisel Goys is still awful, not because of Kevin, who’s still an utter sweetheart, but because Alice still can’t stop making it all about herself, her show and her obvious complete dislike of the show. Maybe it’s schtick? Nah, she’s awful. Tried again to listen, had to stop. Again. Update 2/2020: first thing first...Gilmore Girls fans, absolutely DO listen to the Gilmore Girls episodes with Kevin and Demi-they are super fun!!! See below.* BUT the Maisel episodes wow wow wow wow wow Has Alice doubled down and trying even harder to come across as completely obnoxious and unappealing??!! Kevin, you’re still the sweetest, but man she brings the podcast down. Once more making it all about herself, so so not funny and extremely negative. Accept that you ARE NOT part of the Maisel show and stop always talking about how you would have done the role. No one cares. I’m not sure why you’re doing the podcast, you don’t ever seem to care about the show. Thank goodness for Kevin and some of the guests. I originally rated the show 5 happy stars, but the non-Demi/Alice seasons are a super hard listen. I was such a fan. What a shame. *Original review: If you're even remotely a Gilmore Girls fan, this is a must-listen. Demi and Kevin are 2 of the sweetest guys out there and their show is a blast to listen to. The first few episodes may be rough diamonds, a couple of guests almost made me quit listening, but I'm glad I stuck with the Guys, because they're hilarious and incredibly insightful for such youngsters (I'm sort of an old lady, not as old as Emily or Miss Patty!). And in later GG seasons, they have truly amazing guests that are funny and smart (coughjasonmantzoukasaishamuharraretccough) Fun and way WAY cuter than Pushkin. Listen. Listen now.

Like, like, like
I started listening because I loved the Gilmore guys podcast when it was about Gilmore girls. I also enjoy the marvelous Mrs. maisel. I just can’t listen anymore. It’s only negative comments. Alice seems to have it out for the Palladinos and if she hates it so much should probably move on to another podcast. Also for a writer she uses the word like a rediculous amount. Every like other like word is like I’m like. Criticism is not a bad thing but it seems that’s all this podcast is now.

Why?
Why even come back for season 4 if you’re just going to talk about how terrible it is the whole time? I can respect and understand pointing out problematic things but every episode of the podcast for season 4 is just crapping on the show. It’s boring and you both sound pretentious.
rachelswens
Used to be obsessed
Demi and Kevin took apart Gilmore Girls in a loving and funny way. But why would I listen to a podcast about a show where the hosts clearly hate it. I gave it 3 seasons of Maisel but I can’t anymore. It’s not that bad! There is nothing nice to say. Sorry.
GGfanbutnotMGfan
Long time fan!
I’ve been listening to Gilmore Guys for quite some time and even went to see a live show of theirs years ago! Love you guys. I want to say, in Maisel Goys I simply wish Alice would not be so negative about the show. We listen because we are fans, and when she picks it apart I start to lose some of the joy I initially have in watching Maisel. I don’t know why she’s doing a podcast for a show she’s not sure she likes? Kevin does a good job at leveling the playing field which is appreciated, but you can still analyze the show without taking all the fun out of it. No show is perfect. Let’s spread the love!

Gilmore girls is my favorite show and I’ve watched every episode like 100 times, I also agree with many of your opinions, but HELP MY FRIEND IS TEAM DEAN AND CHRISTOPHER

Not paid for by Chili’s
When you get to part where you’re screaming for them to shut the F up about Chili’s just quit listening. Kevin totally throws in the towel on season 7 and it becomes intolerable.

Lots of positive, yet some disappointments
I’ve listened to many of the Gilmore Girls focused episodes. I feel like they probably deserve 4 stars because they seem to have a thorough knowledge about the show. Also I appreciate that they express a love of the show while sharing intelligent criticisms that usually don’t feel like they’re bashing the show yet looking at it in a thoughtful way. However, I gave 3 stars because, while I don’t entirely mind long episodes, they often went off-topic for a long time, sometimes humorously yet many times unnecessarily. And some of their criticisms became less thoughtful and more excessively negative. Key point: I often feel like they don’t understand Rory and it seems like another example of the bashing of the female introvert, which already has an overly negative stigma. It can be hard to translate an introvert experience onscreen, which may be why it’s wildly devalued. Still, I feel like they need to try harder to understand her and why some people need alone time / smaller groups of close friends. They praise Paris for her unabashed confidence mixed with vulnerability yet it seems like they don’t give Rory enough credit because she’s quieter / has less in-your-face strength. Overall, while I felt rather let-down in some ways, Kevin and Demi created something pretty great here, a podcast with humor, critical thinking, and comfort.
