My 13yo stepdaughter just recently started watching Gilmore Girls with her mom. What are some good things to say during their post-watch discussions that make it sound like I'm in the know?

If it helps, her mom and I have been married a hair over a month.

definitely watch it with them. just faking it will only get you so far before the act falls apart. it'll also help you build your relationship with them if you show interest in picking up and learning stuff she likes IMO

100% this. I'm watching it through for the second time with my youngest daughter (her first time through). I'm a 45 year old bearded man and I love it. This is definitely not just girly TV.

Gilmore Girls has plenty of plotlines that can appeal to all peoples. If you can get past the teen romance plots, there's something for everyone. And there's always Kirk.

I'd say that my favourite part was when the girls said "It's gilmorin' time!"

You would at least know in what season they are, so you can shit on the current boyfriend of Rori. Although it's only either Dean, Jess or Logan. She basically just rotates between them.

Maybe a "she should listen more to Emily" if you want to start shit

If they've seen Supernatural please join my game of calling him Sam instead of Dean

It's actually pretty good so just watch it :D

I’m not sure if this is the best advice you’re liking for, you could try to watch it a little on your own just to keep up with it.
