How much do u wanna bet that it was coco that convinced them to go on the show ?

Coco: please dad, i want to be on tv and they said i could be on the show if you and mom did a song pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase.
Thurston: ok,fine. I wonder if Lee ever has to deal with this kind of thing with his kid ?

oh man, this should be interesting

There is worse TV than Gilmore Girls. Lots worse.

I hate the Gilmore Girls and I haven't even seen it. Isn't it a show for like 12 year old girls? But seriously, hopefully somebody will remind us of this when it airs so we don't miss it.

i hate sonic youth

gilmore gurls 4 lyfe!!!!

Wow. I love Gilmore Girls. It's my favourite show on TV. I think it's awesome they're going to be on. Funny that SY fans don't like the show, and GG fans probably don't know who Sy are though.

I like that show. Funny and entertaining. Great to see Kim, Coco and Thurston on it.

I admire the balls.
Come on, it's a pair of cooler-than-thou art/rock types standing up & not only admitting that they like a shitty TV show but that they like it to such a degree they're willing to appear in it. Now that's class.

That & it could be useful promo.
I'd only be worried if the primary motivation was promo, appearing on a show you don't actually like just to help sell your album must be a really unpleasant experience.

This pairing is so insane and random. I don't get it.

well said. why is it that anytime they do something that doesn't fit in with their image and isn't popular with the "indie" community, everyone tries to give them a motive that might be okay enough to keep them on a pedestal? why does it have to be kim's fault, or coco's fault? a feminist might say why isn't it thurston's fault; maybe he just thinks the gillmore girls are hot. (and parenthetically, i have never seen the gillmore girls so i don't even know if that statement is possible.) why do you need to ascribe a justification? why can't the answer simply be, maybe they actually like the show and just want to be on it?

wtf is gilmore girls? Becuz I'm thinking of that show about 4 old women living together... but that;s wrong.

I have no idea, but yea, this does seem strange. Not exactly the first time SY have done strange of the such, but it's a lot weirder being here for it rather than reading about it.

Nope that was the Golden Girls, now that would really be something.

Folks need to lighten up. I think it's the funniest thing to happen to a good band on a bad TV show since Flaming Lips appeared on 90210. Anyone remember that? Or when SY was on Carson Daly. I don't watch GG but I'll definitely watch this.

Never seen it but on a side note what the hell does Coco look like these days?

Well we know how CHOUT feels about this. As for me I'm looking forward to it yes I hate the show and have honestly only watched it once or twice in my life but anything SY related has gotta be cool

i'd love to hear a sonic youth cover of "thank you for bein' a friend."

I agree that this album is seeming weirder and weirder but its jsut getting me more excited for it; and I dont really watch TV but Im stoked for SY on GG!!!!!

Hahaha sweet :D
