I hate the direction that Luke's character is going. I know the writers are trying to keep Luke & Lorelai a little distant right now and postpone the wedding until sweeps or the end of the season.... but I don't think they should be doing that by making Luke into an ASS. And making Lorelai so passive about Luke being an ASS. And everyone who has mentioned their lack of chemistry has hit the nail on the head. They don't even seem like they enjoy being in the same room anymore!

If Luke complained about one more thing in that episode, I was going to reach through the TV and strangle him. Oh yeah, it's so rough spending Valentine's Day in a gorgeous house on Martha's Vineyard. Whiner.

By the way, I love how "Martha's Vineyard" was actually filmed in Malibu. Those beaches look nothing alike-- it was really silly.

LOVE Logan and Rory together. They just seem so happy together. I don't think I've ever seen Rory as *content* as she was in that epside... she just looked so relaxed and blissful. :) And I felt awful for Logan when his dad showed up. That's a terrible situation. I think Logan does try to stand up to his Dad and is just overpowered-- Mitchum doesn't even let him talk! It reminds me in a way of Lorelai's situation with her parents and how she eventually had to leave home and reject their lifestyle entirely. I hope that Lorelai at some point will share her experiences with Logan and maybe give him some guidance on how to break away from his parents. Lorelai and Logan actually have quite a bit in common.

Lorelai and Logan actually have quite a bit in common.

I was thinking this, too. While right now she is giving him a chance for Rory's sake, I think having this bond will really help their relationship to grow.

I agree with all the sentiments about Luke being a jerk. I really dont' know what Scott Patterson did to tick off the writers, but they are really changing his character for the worse. It's gone beyond him adjusting to having a child in his life. At this rate, I want Lorelei to move on and forget about him.

Loved Logan as always. Rory was so cute in her apron and chopping away!

I was annoyed at last night's episode, mostly because they were so inconsistent about the weather/season. It was supposed to be Valentine's Day yet they showed all these shots of green Martha's Vineyard with blooming bushes and ate outside?!? Hello? Give me a break. Why can't they get little stuff like that right?

OMG, this drove DH and I nuts, too! This would never have happened in earlier seasons. I am beginning to think the writers are getting tired of the show, and I never thought I would say this (a huge fan that owns all the dvds) but the story line is getting really tiresome... I hated Rory last night. The spoiled little hostess. That is NOT the intelligent, career driven, independent woman that we have all known and loved. And now I am hoping that Lorelai dumps Luke. He was a butt last night, and we all know that Lorelai has dumped people for lesser reasons! (Remember Max?)

Potential spoiler re: casting...

From "Ask Ausiello":

Question: Are you sure Milo Ventimiglia isn't returning to Gilmore Girls? The word on the street is that Jess is coming back, but for Luke this time. — Audrey

Ausiello: Clearly, I've been hanging out on the wrong streets. I did a little more digging and it turns out you're right — Milo/Jess is in fact returning for one episode in April.

Random comments/observations:

-Yes, lots of inconsistencies in terms of the weather for Valentine's Day.

-If the Huntzburger's have so much money, why haven't they gotten the things in the house fixed (like not being able to take more than 1 shower at a time)

-Do you think Lorelei knows that Luke didn't buy the necklace for her? After all,they were wrapped the same (Luke probably didn't even look at it before he gave it to her) and it wasn't Lorelei's taste.

-Rory acted like she had been to the Vinyard tons of time with Logan. When would they have had time?

-Luke is an ass. I am really starting to not like him. I have never really seen chemistry between them two.

-I guess I don't really understand why April being in the picture means that the wedding should be postponed. I understand why Lorelei would want to postpone since he hadn't been honest. But since Luke knows that he wants to be with Lorelei and he doesn't need to be burdened by wedding plans because it has all be planned, then why would he want to postpone? What is that going to gain him?

I'm so annoyed at Luke keeping Lorelai and April apart. He's had several months to wrap his mind around the fact that he has a child. He's spending time with her. Doesn't he think it would be a great time to formally introduce his fiance to his daughter? I don't get the separation and it's starting to tick me off!

I saw the similarities in Logan and Lorelai last night. When they showed her watching Mitchum yelling at Logan, I could so tell that she knew exactly what Logan was going through.

I'm not sure if they're showing a rerun next week or something else, but the next new episode is in two weeks, on Feb. 28th. I'm thinking they'll do the rerun so they don't take away from the Olympics being on. I'm sure figure skating will be on prime time next week.

Maybe I'm totally in the minority here but I think Lorelie's behaviour towards April is very very strange. I realize she's upset that Luke didn't tell her sooner, however Luke has never really been someone who is very open to new situations nor opening up to his feelings. And suddenly having a child is a huge thing for him. I'm really surprised at Lorelie's reaction when Luke said hew as spending the next day with April......uh hullo....Lorelie was just with his all weekend, what's one day with his daughter?!?! And coming from someone who has such a tight relationship with her own child, it just seems so out of character.

Well the way I see it is April's been in Luke's life now for a little bit now, and he hasn't even had the decency to fomally introduce Lorelei to her (as PookiePrincess said). I can understand him wanting to spend some alone time with his daughter, but the way he's going about it is weird. Rather than just come out and explain the situation to Lor, he gets all shifty like "Oh, so I guess April will be coming by tomorrow...so, uh, I'll call you after then?" I mean if it were me I'd at the very least like to meet the girl, you know, especially after the awkward way that Lor found out about her. I just think Luke should say something like "I know that I've never asked you to hang out with us, but I'm still just getting to know April. I would however like for you two to meet sometime, so please don't think that I'm shutting you out." Now obviously this is a little more eloquently put than Luke would do, but it would be nice to hear something out of his mouth to this effect, rather than this continued avoidance.

By the way, I love how "Martha's Vineyard" was actually filmed in Malibu. Those beaches look nothing alike-- it was really silly.

I've never been to Malibu or Martha's Vineyard, but while watching the episode, I said to DH "I bet they're really in Malibu." At the scene where they were sitting outside eating and it was "cold" DH said "it's probably 80 and they're sweating!"

Rory acted like she had been to the Vinyard tons of time with Logan. When would they have had time?

Yeah, Rory was quite at home at the Vineyard. It was odd to see Rory like this - it's almost as if they're showing things from Lorelai's perspective, and Rory is someone who's changed dramatically and we don't know all of who she is yet.

Luke is an ass. I am really starting to not like him. I have never really seen chemistry between them two.

He was cute when he was bringing ice to the party or fixing Lorelai's door, but he's being a jerk now. I really dislike him.

Oh, and, about that Zydeco band. Please don't think that all people from Louisiana are like that. FTR, cajuns are the joke of most of the rest of the state. And, NOLA != cajun. Cajuns live in godforsaken backwoods places that are scary and swampy. We're not all like Boozoo.

And, as the fiancee, she's also the stepmother-to-be. If April is going to be in Luke's life, she'll be in Loralei's as well, so I bet she really does want at least a small meeting with the girl.

Didn't they go to the Vineyard during a break once or something? I seem to remember that, but I could be completely wrong.

I was thinking this also as Lorelei was sulking.

I have not been impressed at all this season, and I love the Girls. Something about this season sucks. There is just something missing.

Yes! I have to agree with you one this one. I love Gilmore Girls, but it almost seems like the show is going downhill a bit with this Season. It just feels like the show isn't as funny and humourous as it used to be. I also thought it was a bit strange seeing Lorelai, Luke, Rory, and Logan in a different setting instead of Stars Hollow or Yale in the "Martha's Vineyard" episode.

I actually was kind of angry at the writers for portraying the zydeco bad as such backwater hicks. It was offensive and don't people from the Gulf Coast have enough to deal with right now without being cruelly stereotyped on TV? For a show that tried to be open to casting different kinds of people, this was really out of character.

Well, most Cajuns are backwater hicks, unfortunately. The problem is that most people around the country can't discern Creole from Cajun from just plain Louisianian. Most people think Cajun = Louisiana and that's just not true. Most people here don't want to be lumped with Cajuns, a lot of whom do take pride in their backwoodsiness.

I think there's some sort of Louisiana bias in the writing staff. Many, many episodes back, they mentioned something about Jackson and his cousin (the surly one) and they said something about back home in "Bougalusa". Now, I don't know how many other states have a town by that name, but there is one in Southeast Louisiana and it's the butt of many local jokes, because it's home to a paper mill that smells like crap.

But I could be wrong. Just seems a little coincidental.

Here's the preview for Tuesday's episode (in white):Proud parents Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Christopher (David Sutcliffe) attend a journalism panel at Yale where Rory (Alexis Beldel) dazzles the crowd. Afterwards, Lorelai offers to help Christopher (David Sutcliffe) out by babysitting his 4-year-old daughter and is horrified by the toddler's terrible behavior. The next day, Rory and Logan (Matt Czuchry) attend the wedding of Logan's sister, Honor (guest star Devon Sorvari). While helping the bride and her three bridesmaids get ready, Rory is devastated to learn how Logan spent his time during their recent breakup. Logan tries to defend his actions, but a devastated Rory turns to Lorelai and Paris (Liza Weil) for comfort. Finally, Lane (Keiko Agena) is still heartbroken over Zach (guest star Todd Lowe), until he turns up at the diner with a surprise. Scott Patterson and Sean Gunn also star.

I was annoyed at several things in the last episode. First, since when does Rory go to the gym? I know she didn't actually work out while she was there, but when she said that she and Logan like to work out while they're at the Vineyard--huh? Last month she was complaining about climbing a flight of stairs. And when she said to her mother, "what if these are the ones"--it's too cheesy and hallmark-y a thing for Rory to talk about. Besides, Lorelei is marrying Luke, so he better be "the one."

vwinkel

02-28-2006, 09:24 AM

I agree myra there were complete gaps in the story line that was not part of the characters' normal behavior.

My favorite line...Lane saying, "I photograph so Asian!"

KaliLily

02-28-2006, 09:16 PM

Though I don't see what Lane sees in Zach, the proposal was so sweet! ASP promised a wedding... :)

I was surprised there was nothing about the wedding announcement from the end of the previous episode. I thought that was a set-up for this week. Guess not.

I loved Rory and Paris' make-up scene. Nothing like getting your heart broken to bring 2 friends back together. :) I'm just glad the bar scene wasn't a set-up for a drunken romp in the hay for Rory and Doyle! EEEEEEEEEEEWWWW!:eek:

And what is with an episode every other week? It's drivin' me nuts!

PookiePrincess

02-28-2006, 09:28 PM

Yeah, the rerun every other week is getting on my nerves. It's wrecking havoc on the continuity of an already screwy season.

OMG, I can't believe Christopher didn't see what a complete terror GiGi has turned into! If I were Lorelai, I would have not been able to stand it for an entire day and called Chris to come get her! That screaming would have made me want to slap that child! Though it is kind of nice to see them as friends with nothing romantic in either of their heads.

Logan is such a putz. I was starting to like him last week but I knew this was coming, so I knew I couldn't give him too much slack. Though, I've read some spoilers and like what it means for Rory, without going into too much detail.

Liked the proposal and I, too, thought maybe they'll be the wedding that's been promised. Though it's awfully soon to jump into. (Though I guess that would mean that Zack would finally get some from Lane.)

Still can't believe that Lorelai gets more information about April from everyone else instead of Luke. I know he keeps to himself and he tends to be withdrawn, but before they started dating Lorelai was always his pal and he confided in her the things he couldn't tell anyone (Uncle Louie dying, Jess skipping school, Nicole cheating on him). I wish he'd just grow up and let her in just a little.

I know! I was starting to get just a tad nervous there!!! I think Gigi's behavior is going to really increase Lorelei's and Christopher's time together. I wonder if this will lead to Luke realizing that he needs to start letting Lorelei and April to hang out.

I don't like the story line with Logan. :( I was really liking them back together. <sigh>

Anyone know when we'll get another episode?

Christopher's reaction to Lorelai's criticism about GiGi made me shout, "You're making Luke look good, Chris!" at the TV. I did like that he called her later and finally admitted she was right. I think his ignoring GiGi's behavior was because of his guilt and fear over being a single parent, and maybe a little bit of his pride not wanting to admit he'd messed up. At least he finally saw the light and asked for help.

bunnybeth

03-01-2006, 08:06 AM

I thought Lorelai and Chris were really cute at Rory's panel. Is it just me, or were they sort of acting like siblings?

I was so upset about Lane and Zach's engagement! That totally came out of nowhere. They really have some issues they need to work out before they can be a couple again- much less married! Zach may miss her, but that doesn't make up for his terrible behavior in my book. I can't believe Lane just took him back without a hashing out of that terrible night.

I'm glad that Rory and Paris have made up again. And, Paris seems to be acting more normal now. Maybe the power went to her head?

jmvan74

03-01-2006, 08:08 AM

Last night's episode left me feeling sad and angry! I'm way to emotionally attached to these characters. I'm so angry at Logan. I love him and rory together. boo hoo. The whole bar scene with Rory and Doyle was hilarious. I loved when rory said that "Logan had many blondes for Thanksgiving." :p The Paris make up was nice and the proposal was nice.

Still can't believe that Lorelai gets more information about April from everyone else instead of Luke. I know he keeps to himself and he tends to be withdrawn, but before they started dating Lorelai was always his pal and he confided in her the things he couldn't tell anyone (Uncle Louie dying, Jess skipping school, Nicole cheating on him).

I was kind of disappointed in the episode, too, but at least a lot of stuff happened!

First of all, I went to Princeton! Why did they have to make the Princeton guy seem like such a jerk? ;)

Logan is such a putz. Did he really think it wasn't going to come out that he had hooked up with so many of those bridesmaids? I'm glad Rory kicked him to the curb. And I love that she and Paris made up. That was sweet.

That Gigi is going to need some serious therapy.

I thought the wedding/bridesmaids scenes were lame. None of those girls, including the girl playing Honor could act to save their lives. And these are supposed to be high Connecticut society, Town & Country type girls? It just wasn't believable.

ETA: the Lane/Zach proposal just sucked, IMO. I never understood what Lane saw in him to begin with and he is definitely not marriage material, at least not at this point. I'm not buying it.

Lane was mad that Zach wrote all these songs with girls' names in the title but never one about her. So Brian wrote a song called "Lane." Zach got jealous and at a showcase of the bands, where a guy from a lable was supposed to hear them, Zach acted like a jerk and messed up their set.

I thought last night's episode was meh. I actually was a little aggravated with Lorelai telling Chris that Gigi needed discipline, when she didn't give any to the girl herself! Yeah, she took the marker away, but bribed the girl with a candy apple to stop screaming. Then when Gigi ran into Rory's room when she wasn't supposed to, Lor just stood there on the other side of the door pretty much doing nothing (I know, I know, it's just a show :p, but this just bugged me).
I thought the wedding/bridesmaids scenes were lame. None of those girls, including the girl playing Honor could act to save their lives. And these are supposed to be high Connecticut society, Town & Country type girls? It just wasn't believable.
UGH! These girls got on my nerves, and I was so happy when they left the room. Logan's an idiot for not being up front with Rory about everything, and I hope he's gone permanently this time.
Was everyone else flashing back to "we were on a break"?
LOL, I was almost hoping Logan would say that. :D

While I'm glad that Rory and Paris made up, I didn't like that R let Paris think that the reason she came over was to see how Paris was doing. Just shifty in my opinion, and not being a very good friend.

I agree. Zach was an ass, and broke up with Lane for no good reason aside from his jealousy. When she took the ring, it almost looked like she was going to say no and hand it back (which I was hoping she'd do). Sadly, we'll probably never see a discussion between the two of them regarding that night, and will instead be shown a frantic Lane planning her wedding.

I'm so over the April thing. Is Luke ever going to let Lor into that part of his life, because it's getting annoying. :mad:

But she didn't -- she said "in the interest of full disclosure, I broke up with Logan today, too." Then they got into the whole "men suck" thing.

WE WERE ON A BREAK!! LOL I said it out loud, too. I am so bummed at this turn of events. But it did give us the drunk Rory scene, and the eternal line "he had too many blondes for Thanksgiving." Heehee

The Lane engagement thing is just DUMB. I agree, bring Dave back. Zach is an idiot.

Lor & Christopher were hysterical together at Rory's panel -- "milk dud?" "I counted 16 words I've never heard before." I love seeing them like that... and I was touched by his line later on the phone, when he told her he never really understood how she felt about him all these years until whatsherface left him with Gigi.

Finally, the whole show was worth it just to see Doyle putting on Rory's pretty coat LOL!!! What a tiny little man he is :)

Did anyone else think that Rory's wedding dress was AB-solutely HORRIBLE?

Back during the episodes where she was living in the poolhouse, I hated those bangs . . . I hated a lot of things she wore, but then it looked like they were trying to Audrey Hepburn her with more pixie-ish bangs and little DAR suits. That part was a major improvement to the eye-shielding BANGS.

Which was basically what she was doing during the panel meeting . . . but then . . . she may have pinned the bangs back, but that wedding dress was maternity at it's worst . . .

I mean, she looked so dowdy (with really poor posture, to boot), that I had to wonder, while she was flouncing around the bridesmaid's dressing room, WHY Logan would be attracted to her . . .

(yeah yeah, the whole mental run for his money connection sure, but the looks would have to count for a lot for him, too . . )

sigh. The fashion choices are just wrong here lately . . . Remember the blue dress that Logan put under her bed when she went to the Life and Death Brigade's weekend soiree as the investigative reporter? I SO wanted her in something like THAT last night . ..

Logan.......I don't even know where to begin. But hey, they were broke up!

I think the wedding we have been promised all season will be that of Lane and Zach. But I think it is going to go something like this.

Lane plans the wedding for this spring. Mrs. Kim goes along with little interference, everything is good until the morning of the wedding. Lane freaks out, decides she really does want to marry a Korean, leaves Zach in the town square. Luke, not wanting to waste all the food the diner prepared for the reception, turns to Lorelei and says what the heck, lets get married. As the episode ends, Luke and Lorelei are getting married.

Not likely this will happen, but hell a girl can dream can't she?

I'm actually with Rory on this one. Yes, they had a fight, but you have to talk to each other about it to actually break up. Just giving each other space really don't clarify anything about whether they were broken up or not, IMHO.

It would be really cool if the wedding scenario worked out that way! :)

I totally thought about Friends. I was telling DH what happened in the show and when I said "they were on a break" he turns to me and says "You mean, like on Friends" and I laughed.

I haven't caught up on the thread. But 2 comments:

-Ugly, ugly, ugly dress for the wedding Rory.
-What was up with the feathered hair on one of the bridesmaids.

I was completely flashing back to "they were on a break" and frankly, I'm with Logan on this one. They were. Maybe the exact words weren't said, but come one. And, the fact is, even after those girls, that is when he changed and realized he had to get her back.
with really poor posture, to boot
that bugged me too.

Finally watched the episode tonight and am sooooooo sad. Now, I know I'm the big Logan defender around here, but I completely agree with this:

I was completely flashing back to "they were on a break" and frankly, I'm with Logan on this one. They were. Maybe the exact words weren't said, but come on. And, the fact is, even after those girls, that is when he changed and realized he had to get her back.

They WERE on a break. Rory wasn't even speaking to Logan at Thanksgiving and wanted nothing to do with him. Clearly, she didn't consider them "together". Now, could Logan have chosen better ways to deal with it than to sleep with a bunch of other girls? Of course. But he's 21 and we all know men do retarded things at that age. Should he have told Rory? Ummmm... I don't know. Would YOU want to know? Can Logan do what he did and still completely and totally love Rory? Yes. Definitely. And I think he does.

Someone mentioned a few pages back that they had a spoiler that indicated that a breakup would Logan would make something good happen for Rory. I hope that's true, because I'm so bummed out about this! Why do I get so emotionally involved with this show?! :rolleyes:

Anyway, Lorelai and Christopher together at Rory's event made me think, "gosh they have fun together and seem to just get each other. Too bad we don't see that at ALL with Luke and Lorelai." I'm so over Luke.

Not loving the Zach/ Lane engagement. I just don't see him being good enough for Lane. He's a nice enough guy I guess. Just immature.

This season is KILLING me. Seriously.

Wasn't overly impressed with this episode. The whole Lane/Zach story seemed like filler. I'm not a huge Zach fan, and I was disappointed that she forgave him just because he proposed.

Logan's a jerk. Hopefully this breakup is final.

I'm over Luke and Lorelai. Is it sad that I want her and Chris back together? *hides for cover*

Oh, and I almost died laughing at Gil singing "Hollaback Girl". My favorite line of the episode was, "I thought you used a little too much whammy board on 'My Humps'". Oh lord!

No way! I was thinking the same thing last night. Luke has been pissing me off for a while now. Their relationship just seems so weird now, and I hate the way he has handled things with the April situation. Closing Lorelai off from that part of his life is a really good way to drive them apart, IMHO. I can't imagine what he's thinking. :(

I have thought this pretty much the entire series! While Luke has always seemed good for Lorelai, Lorelai and Chris just get each other, and always have. I think it's always been obvious that their connection is much stronger than just Rory. Their timing is always off, and with Luke being annoying lately maybe their timing will get better. Don't get me wrong - I know Chris is not perfect, but I do think he's a much better fit for Lorelai than Luke ever will be.

And yes, they were on a break. I agreed with Ross and now I'm agreeing with Logan. Regardless of whether they were on a break, though, the promiscuous behavior stinks.

I agree about wanting Lorelei and Chris together. They just have a chemistry that even in the better moments, Lorelei and Luke lack.

I do agree that R and Logan were on a break. However, I think the aspect that he would sleep with someone so quickly after a break-up is what stings (same with Ross). This is just how they deal with the pain, but I could see it being hurtful to Rory and Rachel. I still want Rory and Logan to get back together. (and hope I don't get tarred and feathered for saying!!!)

I don't think Logan was winning Rory back "as a game." He truly loves Rory! He slept with Honor's friends while he and Rory were broken up. And then he realized he wasn't happy without Rory and set out to get her back. And since then, he's been nothing but great to her. Remember, this is a 21 year old guy. They don't always make great choices. But Logan had the presence of mind to realize that being with Rory was the most important thing to him. That's why he tried to get her back. Not because it's a game to him.

Well, I'm glad to hear on another board about a little casting spoiler. In white:

Logan's signed on for next season as well. 13 eps at least (same deal as this year). Yay

And another spoiler from TV Guide:

After hitting another rough (and possibly permanent) patch with Logan, Rory decides to attend the opening of Jess' new 'zine/bookstore/art gallery in Philadelphia.

I will say that if GG goes back down THIS road I will be so pissed off. I HATE that character!!!

jeepgirl

03-02-2006, 11:42 AM

I think Rory totally did the right thing to move out. On a very realistic aspect of the whole problem, him sleeping around when they were on a "break" and then getting back together with her SOON after, without talking about it, shows a complete disregard for her welfare. Not just emotionally but physically. On top of that, her actions show she has respect for herself, and in the end, even if they do get back together, Logan will think twice before jumping in to bed with just anyone as a way to deal with his pain if Rory has any hope of being in his life.

Even if I agreed with the rest of it, I don't think it was cool (or appropriate) of him to throw her to the wolves by letting her walk into that situation with all those stank hos. That's the kind of treatment I received from the last guy I dated *before* my DH. And I moved on from him for a reason. Age has nothing to do with respect.

I don't think Logan was winning Rory back "as a game." He truly loves Rory! He slept with Honor's friends while he and Rory were broken up.
Here's how I remember it. Jess comes into town, and Rory, Logan, and Jess all go to a local bar/restaurant together. After Logan is an ass to Jess, Jess leaves and then Logan and Rory battle it out. Logan storms off. Rory simply thinks that they had a fight and will eventually talk it out/make up, however when she calls to talk to Logan, his sister informs her that she's so sad to hear that they've broken up. Huh? When did that happen? Then when Logan was trying to win her back he told Rory that he just said that to Honor to get her off his back...so it seems that even to him they weren't broken up. So for him to now say this when Rory busts him, is IMO, bullsh*t and looks like he's just trying to justify his actions.

Obviously I'm way too invested in these characters. :p

ETA: Actually it was Honor who called Rory to say that she was upset to hear that Rory and Logan had broken up.

Oh, forgot about that. Very true, so even in Logan's mind they weren't really broken up. OR, he just said that to cover himself when trying to win Rory back after having slept/fooled around with his sister's bridal party. This shows a total lack of respect on his part either way you look at it. Go away Logan! I'm even wanting Jess back at this point, though I wasn't fond of him in the beginning.

03-05-2006, 02:57 PM

Finally saw this episode. (This show is not on in my market 'til Saturday.)

Meh - I think they had so many opportunities to create conflict between Rory and Logan at his sister's wedding, the writers kind of wimped out on this one. IMO, Logan's mistake was not coming clean to Rory that he had slept around while they were apart - I mean, frankly, it's wrong to sleep with someone without diclosing all your sexual encounters just from a health perspective.

And while he should have had the guts to break up with her to her face, there's no way she did not know they were broken up. After she got the voicemail from his sister ("Logan told me you broke up ...") she behaved broken up, too. She didn't give him the time of day back at Yale, etc.

I mean, she looked so dowdy (with really poor posture, to boot)... I hate to admit this but Alexis Bledel's posture has long been a pet peeve of mine. She is SO round-shouldered (like many tall girls who lacked confidence growing up, she's probably "stuck" that way) and it shows horribly when she wears clingy cloths, or strappy tops.

Loved the Bat Mitzvah - I really liked hearing Gil throw around a few Yiddish words.

And I agree - the Lane/Zach engagement is very unlikely. I wonder if they'll break up again if she starts to suspect that he only proposed to get her back into the band. (Don't forget he told Gil and Brian "leave Lane to me.")

Oh, and by the way ... is it June in Gilmore Girls Land? Because in the episode where Honor announces her engagement to her family (and they treat Rory like crap at dinner) Mommy Huntzberger says she's "reserved the Tea Room for June" for Honor's wedding. (Saw it recently on DVD.)

I love this show, but they've *always* gotten the timing of things wrong.
Nope, it can't be June, because Lorelai and Luke are supposed to get married in June, and that's still some ways away.

I know what you mean about the timing, and it's always been an issue for me. I mean, how hard is it to have continuity? If the viewers know it's wrong, then people on the show have to know it's wrong.

I do the same thing suzubeane. Yesterday I was watching a old episode on ABC Family, and it was when Rory went on her first college date. The guy asked her if she had any siblings, and she said no...NO?! What about Gigi? :rolleyes: Drives me crazy sometimes.

Rory went on her first college date. The guy asked her if she had any siblings, and she said no...NO?! What about Gigi? :rolleyes: That's bad, but I can see a case for how Gigi might not immediately come to mind as being her "sibling."

I noticed a great one last weekend (we had a couch potato day and watched a bunch of them on DVD back to back.) Lorelei is restless trying to get to sleep at Luke's and goes on and on and on about how one MUST HAVE a television in one's bedroom to watch the Daily Show from bed, yada, yada, yada.

Then they break up, and Rory comes to Stars Hollow to get her mother "provisions" and what does she do? Have Logan's driver bring the TV upstairs to her bedroom. What? No TV there already?

I believe the point of that was to show how uncomfortable Rory was with dating. When they first got to the restaurant he asked if she'd been to Italy and she said, "No" then realized she made a mistake and corrected herself. Then her date pointed to his hometown and she replied, "Yeah, great place" (or something like that) and he said, "You've been to Chicago?" Rory's reply was "No, is that where you are from?" By the time he asked about siblings and she messed up again, she probably didn't want to have to correct herself and look even dumber.

The only good thing is that I don't have to pick between AI and GG, since I can't TiVo them both (I have a hard life.) Once you have TiVo, it's so hard to watch "live" TV without being able to pause. So if I'm recording one, I've got to watch the other one live, which sucks. So, all the reruns at least allow me to record AI and forward through all the fluff.

Here is the preview from the WB for next week's episode:

Rory (Alexis Bledel) forgives Logan (Matt Czuchry) for his indiscretions, then needs some time for herself, so she pays a visit to Lorelai (Lauren Graham) in Stars Hollow. Although Lorelai (Lauren Graham) refuses to admit that she is upset, Rory can tell that she is bothered by the news that Luke (Scott Patterson) will be gone for a few days on a field trip with his daughter, April (Vanessa Marano, who does not appear in the episode). Against Lorelai's wishes, Rory pays a visit to the store owned by April's mother, Ana (guest star Sherilyn Fenn), to spy on her. Meanwhile, when Zack (Todd Lowe) finally works up the courage to ask Mrs. Kim (Emily Kuroda) for permission to marry Lane (Keiko Agena), he is surprised at the deal she makes with him.

I don't like the idea either but I loved Zack & Mrs. Kim writing the song together. So funny, and a pretty catchy song.

The longer the show goes on, the more I just love Mrs. Kim! I just have one question, why don't we ever see Lane's dad? To the best of my recollection, we've seen Mrs. Kim in the passenger seat of the car when Lane was taken to the airport for her summer trip to Korea so we can assume "Mr. Kim" was driving. Then a few years later there was the back of a man's head visible in the scene where Lane goes home in the middle of the night and kisses Mrs. Kim while she's sleeping. Will we actually see Mr. Kim at Lane's wedding? :D

I also loved loved loved that Rory was in Stars Hollow for most of the episode. So good to see her back home for more than a few mnutes!!!

Yes, also not a fan of Lane and Zach's engagement. Just not a way to work out relationship issues like his jealousy. However, I loved the bit with him working on a song with Mrs Kim, she's so funny.

Will the Gilmores really move to Stars Hollow? Somehow I just don't see them finding a property that's as big and fancy as they're used to living in. And, 30 miles really isn't very far to live away from your daughter.

Did they say there were only 4 episodes left? It seems a little fast for anyone to get married at this point. Unless it's something random like Kirk and his girlfriend. :p

Although I wasn't a big fan of Lane and Zach getting married, I did think they were really cute last night, and now I'm a little excited for it. I also loved that Zach wrote a song with Mrs. Kim (who I always love), and hope that it is a hit. :D

I was somewhat surprised that Rory went back with Logan so easily, and didn't even take time to think things over and see if that's what she really wanted to do (which it obviously isn't since she ignored his calls all weekend). And during the hallway scene I kept thinking that Paris was going to burst out of the door and accuse Rory of trying to hook up with Doyle (since he was wearing her coat and said that he almost kissed a really good looking girl), but thankfully she didn't.

Interesting that after all this time the Gilmores are looking for property in Stars Hollow. I wonder if they'll really move there too.

Some more fave scenes:

~The stare down between Rory and Michelle (we need more of him)
~Lorelai going to the door when her parents were there and whispering to Luke they were over...hee! :D
~Paris' smackdown of Logan

I don't know . . .it seemed to me that after all the critiques made by Emily while in the house, maybe she's shopping FOR Lorelai and Luke . . trying to set them up in a house that's more up to her own standards . . .

Remember how she outfitted Rory's dorm room living room Freshman year? Maybe she just wants a project :-)

I was thinking that too. Could you even imagine how MAD Lorelai would be if her parents bought her a new (fancier) house?

Good episode last night. The Lane/Zach storyline has bored me to tears, but Zach writing the song with Mrs. Kim was really cute. Good moment: Lane shows Rory her ring and she says, "You joined the Shriners?"

Okay, the April thing is RIDICULOUS! Why has Lorelai not even met this child yet? They're all a bunch of boneheads. And they're essentially lying to April by not acknowledging her father's fiance. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

re: Logan/Rory.... You all know that I love Logan, but I was really surprised that Rory just went back home with him without even really airing her grievances. I want them to be back together, but in a way that Rory is really happy and comfortable with. It can't be like that if she isn't honest with him about how she's feeling. She's so passive agressive. And can I just say (re: upcoming episode, in white): I am going to vomit if Rory hooks up with nasty, sulky Jess. BLEEEECH.

Paris was on FIRE last night. Hilarious! :D

I agree, and can't believe that Lor is being so passive about the whole April thing. I liked how Rory brought all of the stuff up though, and told Lor that that wasn't right.

Lorelai went right up to Luke's apartment, he told her that Anna had sent the bag over after they had been discussing the trip and he mentioned his duffle bag was falling apart. Lorelai acted like this was ok, and just went back down to her hamburger . . .

(WHY oh why . . .now, I know that Luke is male and all, and v.low materialism male to boot, but . . . SEWING a duffle bag? Men sew?

Re: Lorelai's passiveness towards Luke/April and Rory's passiveness towards Logan, I think they get it from Emily. She's the queen of passive agressive behavior.

~Lorelai going to the door when her parents were there and whispering to Luke they were over...hee!

Wait? Was Luke hiding in the house the whole time? I totally didn't catch any of that. I heard her wisper something but didn't know what she said. And, we were TiVo'ing AI so we had to watch GG "live" with no rewind.

This season feels so disjointed to me. Part of it is that the season started early, so they've had more reruns. But there's just so much time in between episodes that I'm not as invested in the show as I used to be. I'd rather wait until October for the season to start than have one new episode a month.

ITA. I'm mad at both Luke and Lorelai for acting so stupid about this. She needs to be open with Luke that she wants to meet April and be part of her life, and he needs to get a clue and realize that it's silly to keep them apart. They are both being ridiculous.

I'm sorta annoyed at Rory for taking Logan back so easily. I hope he doesn't hurt her. I want to trust him, but I really don't. It's probably irrelevant anyway, when Jess comes back. ;)

Overall I really enjoyed this episode, though. :) I teared up when Mrs. Kim gave Lane that ring. :D

I like her & Logan as a couple & do want to see them get back together...but I was really surprised at how easily she made up with him at the beginning of the episode. If I were her, there is NO WAY I'd just brush that off & go home with him, acting like everything is fine. :rolleyes: Obviously, given the fact that she ignored his phone calls all weekend, she is still upset - but it was really weird the way she went back with him so easily when she's obviously not over what happened.

Count me in as another viewer who is SO annoyed at the way the situation with Luke's daughter is being handled. WTF is wrong with him & Lorelai? How can he not see that it's wrong to totally exclude his fiance from his relationship with his new daughter, & why oh why doesn't Lorelai just put her foot down & insist that he introduce them & let her share in this major event in his life?!?!? :mad:

mom_to_zoe

04-05-2006, 02:52 PM

ITA with most of what has been said here.

Mostly, I was SO disappointed in Rory for taking Logan back so quickly. Even if he didn't technically cheat on her (not sure I am buying that, BTW), it is still pretty bad behavior to immediately after a break-up go out and bed so many women and then, went you get back together, not tell your girlfriend! (I once broke up with a long-term boyfriend and then we got back together and he immediately told me that he had slept with someone while we were apart and I was pretty upset. But at least he was honest!) I expected more of Rory. It's like Logan saps her strength or something.

Zach is so not ready to get married. Nuff said.

So happy to see Richard and Emily back. They were great. Paris and Michel too!

The Luke/Lorelei thing with April just sucks.

Thanks for the recap fierypyropixy. It seems like it was a pretty aggravating scene, so I'm glad I missed it. ;) It also apparently is just another moment of GGs leaving stuff out, or changing it, as like you said, Luke already has luggage (that he only used once, BTW), so why would he be sewing his duffle bag? I kept saying "But you don't need luggage because you already have it.", so why wasn't Lorelai saying the same thing, or at least "Uh, what about the luggage you got when you went on your cruise?" :rolleyes:

jnettie

04-05-2006, 08:16 PM

See, I can totally understand Luke and the dufflebag, because that's exactly how my DH is. He has a bunch of other bags, but insists on using his old crapy bags - and yes, he will sew them up when they rip! Not well, mind you, but he'll sew them himself. Maybe Lorelie doesn't remember the cruise or Luke used Nicole's?

And when we were watching the scene when Lorelai asked Luke about the new bag, when she said "it's ok" DH said "oh, she just gave Luke 'the look' (you know, the "wife look"!) and he didn't regcognize it!" :D Sure, she said that it's ok, but that look said otherwise!

Also one who likes Logan but wished Rory made him suffer for a while!

Season Finale *SPOILER* below in white. Source: spoilerfix.com

*** SPOILER ****

What happens when Gilmore Girls' resident troubadour, Grant Lee Phillips, gets picked to open for Neil Young in the May 9 season finale? Why, it's a Stars Hollow Troubapalooza! Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo, Joe Pernice, the ultra-reclusive Sparks, and also 24's Chloe, Mary Lynn Rasjkub, show up strummin' and singin', also hoping to be ''discovered.'' In an exclusive EW interview with Gilmore creator Amy Sherman-Palladino, she says of the finale's plot details that the relationship between Lauren Graham's Lorelai and Scott Patterson's Luke ''is reaching a boiling point. Lorelai goes to a dinner at her parents' house, where [mother] Emily has invited a surprise guest who helps push Lorelai to finally confront Luke about their long-stalled engagement.'' Meanwhile, Alexis Bledel's Rory has her own dilemma. Rory's hoity-toity boy-toy, Logan (Matt Czuchry), has graduated from Yale, notes Sherman-Palladino. ''Rory is dealing with their last night together before he goes to London to start working for one of his father's newspapers. And Rory finally gets a chance to confront Mitchum Huntzberger (Logan's father) face to face'' for dissing her newspaper skills and general character over the course of the season. Is this the end of Lorelai-and-Luke? Of Rory-and-Logan?

You know, I've really loved this show for so long, and now it just seems disjointed. This season has really sucked and I'm ready for it to just be over! I might look back at it differently once I can watch the entire season on DVD, but watching each week, it's seemed to D R A G on!

A few things about tonight's epi:
The Paul Anka dream...so strange and so Lorelai!

I really enjoyed watching Lorelai throwing around the bag that Anna gave Luke. Definitely passive-aggressive, but funny! I really thought she was trying to just take it out. That last time when she just chunked it into the truck...hilarious!

Mrs. Kim is so old fashioned. That is one UGLY dress! I kind of took joy in Lorelai spilling her coffee on it. Poor Lane.

Either Rory needs to forgive Logan and get over it, or she needs to dump his butt and move on. Pick one, but make a choice already! She'll stay with Logan...if not, she'd have kissed Jess back.

That was so freaking awkward with Luke/April/Rory. I wish Luke would just suck it up and let Lorelai and Rory meet April and be around her. He and April have had plenty of time to adjust. Enough with the babying already.

Emily and Richard in Stars Hollow...there's got to be more to it. I did enjoy watching Lorelai run around trying to make her town sound awful. I think she really does need her buffer zone. With a mother like Emily, you'd have to!

Oh, my favorite line:
Luke: I didn't realize.
April: You're pretty oblivious.

PookiePrincess

04-11-2006, 07:53 PM

I'm not sure if this is considered spoiler info or not, it's not regarding storyline (it's about the Palladino's), but I'll post it in white just to be safe...

Possible Spoiler-
Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and her husband, Dan Palladino, an executive producer on the show, have decided not to return to Gilmore Girls should The CW renew the six-year-old mother-daughter drama for fall. More details to follow. (Source: EW via TWoP)

I for one am sort of relieved. The soap-opera-ish long lost daughter storyline was about the stupidest, most unbelievable thing they could have done to this show. And, unless I'm mistaken, that was all Amy S-P. I know in the past Amy and Dan have written the best shows of the season, but not this year. They wrote the entire season except for 6 episodes. I really hope the people at CW look at this season and do the exact opposite next season.

I didn't think last night's episode was THAT bad. I totally got a kick out of April/Luke's interaction-- as much as I hate that storyline, both actors do a great job working together!

I cheered when Emily basically told Lorelai to strap on a sack and talk to Luke about the whole April situation :)

My favorite part of the episode was that dress. I seriously laughed at loud when I saw how hideous it was-- way worse than I imagined!! I like how Mrs. Kim said that she was "just a little bit bigger than Lane." Hee...

JamBray

04-12-2006, 11:39 AM

Eh, I wasn't that thrilled with last night's episode (nor with the 20 bajillion commercials I had to sit through. What was up with that?). That dream was so weird and random.

I'm really getting tired of the passive-agressiveness from both Lorelai and Rory...Lor, you're obviously steaming mad at Luke (as evidenced by you thrashing his bag around) so SAY SOMETHING to him already! And Rory, you can't say that you forgive Logan and then take away his article from him, give him the brush off when he tries to kiss you, and walk away saying everything is fine when it's NOT! I just wish the two of them would grow a spine.

I did however enjoy both Logan and Jess giving it to Rory and basically telling her that her behavior sucked, as well as the kiss between Jess and Rory. I didn't like him when he lived in Stars Hollow, but now that he has his life in order, I wouldn't mind seeing the two of them back together.

The field trip scenes were a little annoying, but I was especially pissed at Luke with the way he introduced Rory to April, as an "old friend"? WTF was that?! :mad: And his muttering about Lorelai and how she "met her that one time", and she was his mumble, mumble, fiancee. What was that Luke, I couldn't hear you! He's really pissing me off, and I hate that because I used to adore him. I was really hoping that Rory was going to say something to Luke or get a little angry at him for that, but oh well.

Lor's scene with her parents was pretty funny, especially when they were in Doose's (sp?) market and Lor compared Tyler to the BTK, and then Richard said "You mean this is Gropey McGee (or whatever the nickname was)?"...hee. :D I also liked Emily giving it to Lor and telling her that she needs to say something to Luke and get to know April. For once I agree with Emily.

That wedding dress was hideous! I'm kind of glad that Lor threw coffee on it, but then again, it was Mrs. Kim's so it was also a bit rude. Liked the interaction between them though, and Mrs. Kim's disapproval about women riding horses. :)

I wonder if next week will be better. I hope so. Oh and as a side note, why don't they cut Luke's hair? It looks awful! They should give him that close cropped cut he had when he was with Nicole, as it looked so much better than all this wispyness he has going on top.

04-12-2006, 11:45 AM

I thought last night's episode was better than most of the previous (granted, that's not saying much...)

I did love the dress! It was huge! I'm kind of hoping it'll show Lane in it at least once!

Am I the only Jess fan here? I was so hoping that Rory would dump Logan and get back with Jess! I loved him on the show last night (and thought he looked hot!). But with her professing her love for Logan after kissing (or being kissed by) Jess... I'm guessing we won't be seeing Jess again soon :(

Here is the blurb about next week from thewb.com. I posted in white in case it is a spoiler for people ;)

On the night before Lane (Keiko Agena) and Zach (guest star Todd Lowe) get married, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory's (Alexis Bledel) plans for a bachelorette party go awry, as do the plans made by Zach's buddies, so the two groups end up together for a makeshift party in a vacant parking lot. Mrs. Kim (Emily Kuroda) informs Lorelai that she cannot attend Lane's wedding without an escort. Since Luke (Scott Patterson) is still out of town, Lorelai invites Christopher (David Sutcliffe) to be her date. Everyone attends two wedding ceremonies-one Buddhist and one Seventh Day Adventist-followed by a wild wedding reception in the town square. Melissa McCarthy, Yanic Truesdale, Liza Weil and Sean Gunn also star.

bunnybeth

04-12-2006, 12:37 PM

Mrs. Kim's gown was pretty bad, but not as bad as I imagined. Totally not what Lane (or most people) would want to wear, but the shape of it was pretty Korean and it wasn't overly decorated. I hate over embellishment, like the gowns from the 80's. I loved the scene where Lane was bribing Lorelei to destroy it with all her $10 bills. :D

I didn't like that Rory kept insisting she forgave Logan when it was clear that she didn't. They need a good discussion/fight.... and hopefully Logan won't take that as a sign that they're broken up again.

Just checking in because I DVRed it last night and haven't watched it and probably won't get a chance until the weekend. Sounds like I will be fast-forwarding through most of it.

The timeline for this show stinks. Why are Lane and Zach getting married so quickly? In the wb.com preview for next week, it makes it sound like the wedding will happen within a couple of weeks of him proposing. That is insane and just another thing that has made this season not so good.

PookiePrincess

04-12-2006, 05:06 PM

From what I can tell, they're showing previews for the rest of the season, not just next week. So it makes it look like there's going to be a lot going on, but that's over the next 4 episodes. My guess is, there's not enough interesting stuff to do a big teaser preview to make people watch.

lawyerlee

04-12-2006, 10:13 PM

Emily can be a total PITA, but thank goodness she finally said what Lorelai's been needing to hear about the April situation. She was so right on with that!

I would love for Rory and Jess to get together, but I really think she needs to handle things with Logan head on. If she doesn't want to be in that relationship, she should let him know so they can both move on. I wouldn't blame her a bit for breaking up with him, but I don't think it's doing either of them any good for her to stay with him and keep punishing him for hurting her.

04-17-2006, 11:20 PM

Coming out of lurkdom once again (gee, maybe I should just join you guys for real already) to comment on the blurb jellybeany posted in white...and I'll post that in white:

I'm hoping this is just a dumb writer that doesn't know any better, but there's no way Mrs. Kim would allow Lane and Zach to have both a Buddhist and 7th Day ceremony. They better mean Traditional Korean ceremony and 7th Day ceremony. Trust me, Asians that are Christian view Buddhists as the ultimate of idol worshipers and about the biggest heathens in the world. I can tollerate TV taking liberties to a certain extent, but this is not one of those times!

Whew! I feel better.

Otherwise, I still don't really like Jess. Logan and Rory need to hash things out. I bet it's a combination of him screwing around with those girls during their break and the fact that he just won't take control of his own life that's frustrating Rory...like Lorelie she just needs to talk to the man!

To add to jnette's rant (posted in white):

If the grandmother where truly Buddhist, she shouldn't care about her daughter being 7th Day Adventist.

The wedding was so great. It was cool to see Lane and Zac so happy together, but it also just kind of emphasized how things aren't going that well for Lorelai or Rory. I think they're both due for changes.

The scene with Michel dancing was so awesome! :D He just kills me. And Loreali and Sookie talking about the cookies - hello, Tommy Lee! Lots of good stuff tonight! :)

I thought it was so funny to see that Mrs. Kim hides stuff from her mother just like Lane does! And the double wedding fit so well with Lane's (and, apparently, Mrs. Kim's!) character. Lane rocked playing the drums in her my-wife-has-legs! wedding dress.

I also thought Chris was so cute tonight, but then, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for him.

I agree, so much good stuff in this episode!

They jampacked the dramatic stuff in the last five minutes, which I actually didn't mind. I love the Kims! :D

I'm just going to echo everybody - I reeeeeeally enjoyed tonight as well! Until the whole Luke and April blah started . . .

Couldn't help but laugh at the scene where they're all standing in the street for the bachelorette party with their blinking rings and necklaces . . . THIS was GG humor!

The kookiness of Michel doing his "Around the World" dance (ooh, must find that mp3 now, it's in my head for the night).

And the running to the church. Classic Stars Hollow! Just enough Miss Patty and Kirk, what with Lulu and the Yummy Bartender!

I really liked Luke before this April business started . . . now just think he's clueless and even more stupid than his stereotype . . . surprised that I felt SO. HAPPY. when Lorelai got up there on the stage and started telling everyone that the wedding was off!

(of course, next week will probably drag us down again and act like she was just having doubts or something. Come on, Lorelai, get a backbone!)

Reeeeally wanted a shot where she woke up and had slept with Christopher or something . . . something that would have rendered the Luke relationship absolutely DOOMED.

I haven't been reading spoilers . . . so I don't know if anything happens with this, but I want Rory to have some dramatic confession to Logan when she sees him in the hospital . . . I've hated the way she's been treating him lately. (Yes, I'm a Logan fan.)

Yay for good episodes, they make me happy!

"Lorelai Gilmore, disappointing mothers since 1968" :D

What a cute episode! The wedding was sweet. I haven't enjoyed much of the Lane/Zach storyline, but they were really cute tonight.

The previews for next week are dramatic!! Hopefully Logan being hurt will make Rory figure out whether she really loves him or not (for the record, I think she really does). And maybe it'll make him realize he needs to grow up a bit. Lorelai looked pretty sad in the preview--- I bet she finally confronts Luke and tells him off/ breaks up with him. 'Bout time!

I think Rory loves Logan too . . . didn't she say something to that extent when she kissed Jess?

So do we think that Lorelai will be with Christopher now? I thought perhaps the being at the wedding together would sort of inspire those types of thoughts in his head . . . I mean, he went for it when Emily suggested it before . . .

I must say, I am LOVING Christopher. He was so wonderful last night and I think I now have a new crush on the show!! :)

I can't wait until next week...

I was terrified that would happen. If Luke & Lorelai go bust, it can't be Lorelai's fault this time. I'm not saying last time was her fault, but that Lorelai herself felt like she'd messed it up.

re: Lorelai/Luke/Christopher...

My feeling is that the show intends for Lorelai to end up with Luke. Which is fine, I guess. I just wonder why they'd spend this whole season alienating him from the audience and make us all like Christopher again. :confused: If (as rumor has it) this show only has one season left, the writers are going to have to do a heck of a job making us like Luke again in a short period of time.

Then again, I wasn't sure I could ever like Rory again after how beastly she was to Lorelai over the summer.... and of course, I do.

If I can grow to like Logan, I can like Luke again. :)

I have always been on the Christopher bandwagon since he first pulled up on his motorcycle years ago. I was so upset when his (now ex-wife?) ended up being pregnant right when it appeared that he and Lorelei were going to get together at Suki's wedding. I have never thought that L&L made a good pairing.

Good episode!

I pretty much agree with everyone! Last night's episode was soooo refreshing!

I still don't know how I feel about Logan. Part of me is like "just kill him off!" (I want Rory to be with Jess!) But I know they won't. And now that someone made me aware that Jess has his own show... don't think we'll be seeing him again :(

Maybe the medical drama with Logan will warm me to him a bit.

Found myself rooting for Christopher! I am so tired of the Luke/April storyline. I hope Lorelai dumps him. I bet the show will tease us a bit about who she ends up with (Chris or Luke). Can't have her be getting married this season after all!

Ahh, last night made me remember why I love this show. When they are on, they are on!

Minor spoiler re: Logan. This has already been posted and discussed on this board, but just in case, I'm putting it in white:

The actor who plays Logan is under contract for the next season of GG, so he's definitely not going to die.

That he's around all next season makes me think he and Rory will work things out and stay together. (YAY!)

I *loved* the wedding reception! So fun. I also liked the bachelorette "gear". Why didn't they just go to Lorelai's house and get crazy?

As for Logan...eh. Of course they would have something happen to Logan just so Rory can profess her love for him. Eh. :rolleyes: Still not a Logan fan.

Mrs. Kim was so funny when she was explaining sex to Lane, "if you're lucky you'll only have to do it once like me."

I like Christopher, I think he has the best chemistry with Lorelai. I don't know if they would ever work long term but they are so fun to watch together.

I don't know . . . I've usually thought that Lorelai had a good backbone to her, what with going against her parents, society's expectations (to not marry Christopher, break out of the "rich" mold, etc). But with the Luke/April shenanigans, I think that the frustration is stemming from the passive/aggressive nature she's taken.

Perhaps she's thinking it's "supportive" but . . .(ha, like she's a real person here) if she would have just SAID something instead of scowling every time he turned away from her, or banging his luggage into doors, etc, perhaps I could still be rooting for the Luke and Lorelai deal to work out. Lately I just see him as . . . more the dumb hick instead of the good sounding board she had previously.

Granted, I see what you're saying, KaliLily, but . . . I hope this does not also mean that if she finally speaks her mind and CONFRONTS Luke/dumps his rearend, that will be her fault too? My desire for a bedroom shot was just "get this over with people, let's return to fun and kooky GG hours! 62 Koreans and 58 chairs!

I had TV problems last night... could anyone fill me in on what exactly happened in the very last scene?

I think the last scene was when Lorelai was laying in bed, hungover. Chris is sitting in a chair, watching her. The phone rings; it's Luke. He asks how everything is, asks if the wedding was nice. She says it was very nice, and she's glad he called.

If the "end" of Luke & Lorelai is brought about by her saying, "ENOUGH! I'm a part of all of your life or none of it!" that'd be fine. I'd just hate to see it brought to an end because of an "indiscretion" on Lorelai's part.

As for Lorelai's passive-aggressiveness toward the situation, I think she just loves Luke so much and wants to make this work that she's afraid to "rock the boat." Look how Sookie & Michel reacted when Lorelai delayed setting a wedding due to her estrangement from Rory, and then Sookie's initial reaction to the postponement of the wedding. Both times Lorelai was accused of getting cold feet and reminded of her penchant for running from commitment. I think Lorelai is trying so desperately to not "screw up" again that she's gone drastically far to the other side. Lorelai wants to be married, it was (painfully) obvious by her reaction to Lane's wedding and Christopher commenting the next one they go to will probably be Rory's.
