Gilmore Girls Premiere: Everything You Wanted?

See cast pics!


Did you catch last night's episode of Gilmore Girls, The Long Morrow? Given last season's dramatic finale, we were worried the relationship angst would drown out the Gilmore Girls hilarity we know and love. But after checking it out, we're pretty happy with the results. Just as long as Lorelai and Luke find their way back to each other eventually... because that look on Luke's face at the end of the ep was all kinds of painful.

So, Gilmore fans, what'd you think? Did you notice the Palladinos' absence, or were you too fixated on Lorelai's love triangle to care? Tell us your take on the Gilmore premiere!

Not enough for you? Get more Gilmore:

i loved Gilmore girls and Im really upset to find out that the final season has come. please try to see what you can do about bringing them back. they are the best i love all of them.

I feel like Canceling my Superstation Subscription! I don't like the new stuff they have come up with,its dull,boring. I could get lost in that program and forget my life for an hour every Tuesday night. I want Stars Hollow Back, now, darn it!!!!

This is a grave day in television. This is a truely awesome, real, and beautiful show. There are not many shows that have the ability to touch so many in a positive manner. You owe the fans to finish this series in a way that does justice to a series of this calaber. If there are problems amongst the cast pay them more to move on and finish this or wait for the issues to blow over. There is an awesome outcry from the fans at this point. This should show you, the PEOPLE behind the curtain That there needs to be a review in the thinking that ended this series. If you have to postpone ,postpone it but do not end it like this! Gilmore Girls should live to see another day!

Ugh I had no idea the show was canceled until just now. I'm not much of a TV watcher, but I love this show. Ruined my morning! I need more.

MORE GILMORE GIRLS PLEASE!!! I WATCHED ALL OF THE PAST EPISODES!!!! BRING GG BACK!!!

WE NEED GILMORE GIRLS!!! BRING IT BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON AT LEAST!!! I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!!!!!!

Why did they take gilmore girls off the air... its the best show ever....!!!!! to many people watch this show for them to just end it like that. they need to bring it back NOW!!!!!!!!!

Gilmore Girls CAN'T end!!!! What is the world coming to???? This show was my lifeeeee. it needs to have one more season!!

ok guys this one of the best series i have ever seen please save it

PLEASE BRING BACK THE GILMORE GIRLS I NEED GG BACK. IT DIDNT END THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO AND IT WAS TO SUDDEN ITS DIFFERENT WHEN U KNOW ITS THE LAST SEASON FROM THE BEGINING BUT TO FIND OUT AT THE END IS NOT FAIR. PLEASE BRING IT BACK PLEASE!

Bring Gilmore Girls back!! That was the worst ending ever!! Logan and Rory would not just break up like that and that kiss between Luke and Lorelai was pathetic! AND what about Sookie?! She's still pregnant!!!!! Too many open ends and I'm totally heart broken! Bring 'em back and end it right!!!

I watched each and every season. I still can't believe it's over. The writers on the show will be missed. I wish WB would consider another season. Rory and Loreai quick remarks will be missed. As a devote viewer, I do have to say the ending was disappointing. I expected a lot more from Rory & Logan.

its only fair to all the fans to bring them back to actually give an ending to the shows instead of leaving us all wanting more.

me encanta gilmore girls. la relación madre e hija es ideal ojala todas las madres lograramos esa comunicacion con nuestros hijos.

There are so many good reasons for the show to come back for 1 more season. All above are right. The mother-daughter, Lorelai-Luke-Christopher, Rori-and a new carrer????????? I have been a fan from the first show and through the 7 years. PLEASE PLEASE bring Gilmore Girls back for another year.

I love gilmore girls! I want it to come back! It just doesnt seem to be the end! there was no conclusion to it! please make a deal to make it come back for at least one more season!

It's sad that the last episode wasn't the best. It could have been so much better. Someone might want to re-think ending Gilmore girls. There are a lot of angry, sad, disappointed fans out there. Me included! The fans, the writers, and the cast all deserve an ending they can be proud of!!!

I have been a fan for all 7 yrs of this wonderful mother daughter show.... I am very angry that it ended so abruptly all of a sudden it was just over....PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring it back for one more season for the fans who have been around for all these yrs. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...

THEY NEED TO BRING GILMORE GIRLS BACK!!!!! at least for one more season so we can finally get some closure....

i cant beleive its over, i wish it hasn't, i didnt even watch the last ep. i was too sad, its just not enought i think one more season would sadisfy everyones need for the Gilmore's. i love them so so so much they are like a part of my family, and my life everything i can't get a hold of in my own life i look at them and it all seems to be soo similar! i just really dont want it to end!!!! i think we should boycott till they do another season! AND RORY AND LOGAN SHOULD GET BACK TOGETHER AND GET MARRIED!!!! SO SHOULD LORILIE AND LUKE!!!!! THIS IS CRAP ENDING IT LIKE THIS!!!

This really sucks! I can't believe it is over and it seems like short notice. I read the interview with Graham in TV guide and she said that they showed tribute to everyone in the cast. What about Rory's Dad. Shouldn't he have been at the big party or at least a mention of why he couldn't make it. The only other thing that I am disappointed in is that Rory should've said yes to Logan with the understanding that it would be a long engagement. She could still have taken the job and that would justify the long engagement. They had been through so much as a couple and survived viewers would be able to believe that they would make it through this. I don't think he would have a problem with her being a working wife. He knows how she is and to just be a socialite wouldn't satisfy her. I think that that storyline would be totally believeable instead of just bluntly ending in the way they did. Because we all know how much she will be missing him. I think they belonged together.
I am just really disappointed that the show ended!

This ending sucked!!! Just like all season we got no info. They just give us like a little bit and then end and when they came back it was still nothing. And the last 3 or so episodes were great and I was so shocked they were ending. They was no ending wow a kiss nothing more and what about Rory's dad he wasn't even in the ending or Paris it sucked and I agree with everyone especially if they also take off One Tree Hill I will not watch CW anymore... I have watched this show with my mom every Tuesday until I don't remember when and we watch One Tree Hill. Please Please rethink ending this show

I would like to say that Gilmore Girls is the best family show ever made. And i'm really upset and quite annoyed that it has come to an end. although the ending was positive.. can we atleast see 1 more season and see luke and lor get married?! come on. For fans that have stuck around for all 7 years, like me, we would have really appreciated seeing them get married rather than kiss.

this show should not have gotten cancelled. There are plenty of ways to make the show more eye catching and creative for the viewers, rather then end it.

disappointed. It was my FAVORITE show. :(

I love Gilmore Girls and i am gonna miss it. as a teen it gave me a sense of realism. this show showed me that, even if you make a mistake(getting pregnant at 16, for example) happens to everyone. you can still have a good life. i'm really gonna miss the characters, because they seemed so real to me. Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel did such a great job bringing reality to thier characters. My and my mom have become closer after watching this show. thank you for keeping it this long, but it be nice if you could keep it goin. thank you CW and Warners. for such a great show, and i am gonna miss it a lot.

Gilmore Girls is my favorite show. I love watching with my three daughters. My girls love it the know all the words to the open song and the sing it everytime. I would really hate to see them go of air for good.

I cannot believe that they are taking Gilmore Girls off the air do to contract reasons. This is a show that I enjoy watching every week that takes my mind off of everyday things. To relax with the gilmores. What really makes me sick is that they keep the crappy shows on and keep taking away all the great ones. Its only a matter of time that it will come back to haunt them when the ratings start to take a noise dive. It is time to change the channel. Gilmore Girls is great tv. Why dont they take off the reality shows, those are what needs to go top model, pussycat dolls etc. CW has lost one loyal watcher and I am sure many more to follow. They are making a very bad decision.

im really upset that gilmore firls will stop. i have all the seasons and it has helped me to build a better relationship with my own mother. one witch you see on the screen. it was something to awsome as to watch you guys and i loved everything about the whole show. i really dont know what to watch cause this was the only show on tv that was good ebough for me. im really upset that i cant watch. it will always be my favorite show ever and if we can do anythig to keep the show running please allow us to.

how can 7th heaven stay but this amazing show is ending?
Last season i was kind of bored, but its REALLY interesting now and i want to what happens with Luke and Loreli, and Logan and Rory.

I was EXTREMELY shocked to hear that Gilmore Girls is ending forever! I need Gilmore Girls to survive!! Why would anyone want to stop it when it just started to get intense!? What is going to happen? Are Luke and Lorelai going to get back together? What about Chris? How will Rory live her future life without Logan? What about lane and her twins? If there are so many questions, how can you answer them all in one episode? DONT TAKE THIS SHOW OFF! YOU ARE ENDING IT TOO SOON!!!!!!!

I have been watching Gilmore Girls since day one. When I was prego with my daughter and on bed rest that is what I watched. Now since my was born every time she hears the theme song she comes running to watch it with me. Please dont cancel the show. I abusolutley love it and cant picture Tuesday nights with out it... I know that is a bit extreme but it is the truth!!! If there is anyway for you not to cancel it please dont!! I am intreged to see what happen with the Girls...

i don't want it to end the gilmore girls because it just started to get very interesting

I can not believe the show is ending. If there is one show I was all the time it would be this show. There is still so much to be said with this series... What happens after she finishes school? What happens with Lorili and Luke?? This show can't end. Its my get away.

I was so hurt to hear about Gilmore Girls ending. The show has been such a great comfort and friend that I will miss it. The sudden news of the ending of the show won’t allow long-time fans to mourn its departure. The quick ending will not do justice to the show and allow fans to finally see Luke and Lorelai together (married, with children, helping raise April), Luke and April’s relationship, Rory’s future goal, etc. It would be great if we had another season (even a mini season) to tie up the loose ends and say our farewells. I guess that’s it for me watching CW, Gilmore Girls was the only show I watched on that station and now their taking away a great show. How sad!

This is truely insain!!! There is no way that GG can be wrapped up in one final show! So many people will be very upset. I can not believe this. They need to get rid of all the other junk on TV and leave GG alone. They need one more season at least to give thier fans a proper farewell!!!

My mom and I love Gilmore girls, I was crying last night and a bit upset because I want more of Gilmore girls. Im sure the writers can come up with more exciting stories.
Please please more Gilmore girls.

I just can't believe it's ending. I have been watching Gilmore Girls since it started. My husband calls me an avid fan of Gilmore Girls. I look forward every Tuesday knowing I will be watching my show. I even have all seasons except the last on DVD. I never missed an episode & I'm just really sad it's ending. I want to know if Logan will try to propose again. I want to know what will happen to Luke & Lorelai. I think if "Friends" can do 10 years, I think Gilmore Girls deserve 10 years. I hope this is something WB will think about.

Do not stop the show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I realy was hopeing to see what happened after Rory finsh school. Would she get a job, what will happen to her and Logen? How about Lorelai and Luck? Will they get marred after geting back to geather? If there is an other seson the questions could be answered. SO PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My mom, My sister, and I watch Gilmore Girls every Tuesday. We were VERY disappointed when we heard that it was being canceled. I started crying because Gilmore Girls is like "my show". I need it! The series finale is going to be all rushed now because of the whole Luke and Lorelai situation! It's going to be like ZOOM, ZOOM, ZOOM to get everything wrapped up. This sucks! Please make another season!

-Anna

My mom and I watch Gilmore Girls every Tuesday Since it started! We can not believe it's going to be ending!!! It's just such a great show. There's still so many more events that need to happen. It sucks that it was so abbrupt. We will miss it. There will never be another show as great as this one. :(

I cannot believe that the show is ending. Not only does this show not deserve to be discontinued, but abruptly ending it after this long is ridiculous. The plot still has too much going on to be resolved adequately in one more episode. AH I"M SO MAD! PLEASE DON"T TAKE IT OFF! At least let Rory end up with logan and luke end up with lorelai.

Me and my mom almost cried watching the previews for Gilmore Girls toninght, we have watched this show from the beginnig and please don't end the show I love this show, don't take it away, this show has been my favorite show since kindergarten. DON'T TAKE OUR GIRLMORE GIRLS AWAY, AND GIVE US ANOTHER SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is so much more to tie up..Lane's twins, Kirk married.. Luke, Lorelai, and Chris. Get rid of GIGI, come on Amy...don't quit now, please we gotta know. This is stupid and irritating.

i didnt even get to see tonights epsoide [sorry bad spelling im 13];{ because of the fire! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE dont get rid of gilmore girls its my FAVORITE show it whole whide whorld!!!!!!!! i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE times a millon love it!!!!!!! please rory is my fav character!!! i love her shes great!!

Please dont take away Gilmore Girls... I didnt even notice the writers difference although I did notice everything took a huge turn and got different. I still love this show and wish things could have worked out for Rory and Logan...

save gilmore please dont take it off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sad to hear that the Gilmore Girls are over. There is too much that is still open and questions that need to be answered. please let us find out what is to happen with everyone. I am a mother of four boys this is my get away place. The only time i can have my T.V. time. I am so sad abuot what is happening. All we ask is for you to give us a closer just like a brake up we need this. We use this time to get away from are world and are every day life to get away and get locked into the story life of the Gilmore Girls.

I can't believe your going to end Gilmore Girls like this so suddenly. Is this what we can expect from this station with future shows if so why bother getting into them. I'm very disappointed.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! Do not end GILMORE GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!! There is still soooo much that can be written and resolved! It's not ready to be done yet! Please do not let it end this soon!!!!!!!!!

I would like to see Gilmore Girls continue for another season. I feel there are still story issues that need to be resolved and wrapped up better than two more episodes can handle. Please Give Gilmore Girls another season!

i cant belive it. this is my favorite show iam really disappointed.

we will always remember and miss the gilmore girls.it will be verry sad for us.they should not do it.why,why,why,why,why,why,why.this is my favorite show.and now it will beevery gone.and my family alway looks forward every week to watch it.

Gilmore Girls is my all time favorite show. I have watched it from the beginning and I'am very sad to hear the show is coming to a end. :(

Please don't end my favorite show....

I just got my best friend and grandmother HOOKED on Gilmore Girls, I can't believe they are just going to stop it so suddenly!

I can´t beleive it!! It is so sad. The serie is a opportunity to see so many of the things that happen every single day with a mother-daughter relationship.
I hope something will happen to change this decision.

WHY???? I can't imagine life without the Girls- They are my favorite!

I am in shock and awe that Gilmore Girls would be canceled. I understand if it is because the cast wants to retire, but they could give more of a heads up. Gilmore Girl fans need acceptance and closure time. I know that sounds a bit crazy, but Gilmore Girls is my get away, it is where i go to relax, laugh, and be captivated by the people and small town feeling of Stars hollow. PLEASE don't end it!!!

PLEASE DONT END GILMORE GIRLS.!.!.! I it is my favorite show of all time! With out it there will be no reason why to watch tv.

You cant end Gilmore Girls!!! That is one of my all time fav. shows... I have really upset that you would end this show. I dont know how this can end without leaving us hanging for more. There is so much more you can do with this story. Please don't end this.

just so you know its totally unfair to end the show you cant make not such a great season and then make it good on the last 3 episodes. we want more!!!!! we wanna know whats gonna happen. im really upset about the whole show ending i pretty much grew up with the show.

There are NO words to convey how devastated I am about this being the final season for the Gilmore Girls. I LOVE the show and the characters. I can't tell you how much I have looked forward to watching each episode. It was such a pleasure to watch and it was a weekly treat for me, even when I wasn't very happy that Lorelai and Christopher got married. It got my adrenaline going for sure, but it was all in fun and enjoyable entertainment. I am truly, truly going to miss this show.

What a great job everyone has done on the show, the producers, the writers, the directors, anyone who was involved with the production, and especially the actors who made the show so believable, humorous and heart-wrenching at times. Thanks everyone for seven wonderful seasons. You will be missed more than you can imagine!!

OMG, I'm so sad to see the Gilmore Girl show go!!:( It was my favorite show ever, out of all the T.V. shows and the only thing good about Tuesdays! Pretty soon, they'll be nothing to look foward to, just another boring day of working and no Gilmore Girl show to come home to! Its very sad, I really hate to see it go!

What the crap? No season 8. I am totally not going to watch the CW if they keep cancelling all of my shows. 1st it was 7th Heaven, then Gilmore Girls. They better not cancel Veronica Mars, Smallville, or Supernatural. I'll stop watching it. It makes me mad and sad. As Sookie would say, "I'm Smad!" BRING BACK GILMORES!!!!!!

I just heard that there is no season 8 :( Two episodes is not going to conclude the Luke/Lorelai thing Rory'career and from last weeks scences it looks like Logan is going to propose.How are they going to end the show with that being a possibility and the Luke/Lorelai thing that may be a wedding what have em get married on the same day.What about Emily and Richard? Lane and the ababies??? The Townies??? April??? I think there should def be a season8 or atleast half of one to finnish the show correctly!!! First 7th Heaven and now Gilmore Girls! One Tree Hill better not be cancled either otherwise there will be nothing on.The finale better be good and I bet that night the Cw will get the last of its awesome ratings and from there on tuesdays they will go down cause Gilmore Girls will not be on.Why did they cancle it?

I can't believe what has happened to the funny interesting show that gilmore girls used to be! I have to say these new writers have seriously let us fans down. Luke and Lorelai were a dream come true. Chris and Lorelai are a nightmare. I'm not so sure about Rory and Logan but Logan is turning out to be a pretty good guy for Rory. But even though this show seems to have taken a turn for the worst, I still have hope and I'm praying that there will be another season. Hopefully one that will remind us of the old episodes when things weren't so so opera suckyish.

There has to be another season. Gilmore Girls needs to be fixed. It was not a great season but still it is a good show and i dont want it to end.

This article sums up everything - why they need to pull the plug on GG.

http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com/entertainment_tv/2007/04/for_the_love_of.html

I love this show. I started wachting on ABC family at first i didnt like it but then I wacthed a couple of eposides and now you have me hooked. I think gg should go one more season this year with the new writers ppl were disapointed i n hte begin b/c it didnt have the same charm but now the writters are getting a hold of it and i give them credit that was a hard thing to be able to do. We really just need to know the ending of luke chris lor sutation and i really like logan for rory so yeahh thats my imput . It a witty show with heart and charcther one to be remembered!

I love every Gilmore girl season. I really couldn't say that this season in particular was bad. I didn't like the Lorelai/ Christopher thing this season, but that didn't make me not want to watch the show. I still have hope for Lorelai/ Luke. As for Rory/ Logan relationship. I'll admit that I wasn't a Logan fan in the beginning, but now i'm getting to like him with Rory. I hope that they stay together. If this season does end i hope that they end it in a good note. I hope that atleast Lorelai gets her perfect wedding.

I love gilmore girls so much and i wattch it all the time that I will be so mad if it ever ended. The show is amazing and will always rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've loved the Gilmore girls since season 1, I don't know what would really happen to my schedule if the show gets cancelled....I hope you guys stay to season 10 or beyond!!!!!"I love the cast, the plots, the drama, the cast, the story lines, etc!!!!

I've bought all the season and I'm looking forward to seasons to come!!!!

Love always,
Yamila benavides,,,loyal fan

Lorelai and Luke: yeah!
Rory and Logan: super yeah!
Dean isn't even in the show any more. And forget about Chris... he is history, old news!!! Really, what were the writers thinking, do they actually want he show to end!

i think that Gilmore girls is by far the best telivision series on this earth!!! I have to say thought that i hate Logan and think dean is perfect for rory i also think lorelai should be with luke and the writers should stop going back and forth with luke and chris.i loved all the old episodes and i have seen them like 50 times each but this is getting kinda crazy going back and forth but i still love this show

I dont mind lor and chris i kinda like them together just as much as luke and lor.I HATE rory and logan just as much as i HATE rory and dean.they both are horrible and not right for her.i like jess,though he made some pretty crappy decisions he grew up and is better for rory

Lorelei and Chris...BOO!!
Lorelei and Luke...YEA!!!
Rory and Logan...BOO!!
Rory and Dean...YEA!!!

The only reason why I am still watching GG is that Lore and Chris are together. He's wonderful and he understands her and they are great and fun together. There's nothing wrong with Luke, but he's just not for her.

My wife, daughter (16) and I have watched this show (and rewatch on DVD) the last few years - and thought season 6 was "a bummer"; now that we have seen the 7, we think it is great. It seems all too obvious that Amy SP was the voice of Lorelai and Rory. They now sound as if they have been taken over by body snatchers.

I'm over this show in a big way, for me, it all started going down a slippery slope with the whole Logan Cheeseburger thing. Anybody with an ounce of self respect wouldn't tolerate his crap, and I'm real surprised Lorelai didn't have a huge conversation about the type of narcissitic jerk he is, but then again, Lorelai's kinda running in reverse herself taking up with her ex again. Personally, I'd like to see this thing put out of it's misery.

I don't think Luke or Lorelai will ever be able to forgive or forget what they did to each other. The first break-up was hard enough to get over but I don't think it can happen again. It wouldn't be possible in real-life and that is what they are imitating...as best as possible. It would be really cool, but way too fake. We don't want the show ruined that way. I am very disappointed it happened this way. I hope Chris goes away and I hope Lorelai finds a new man. One to make her happy. She deserves it. I just hope the show is not ruined and that they can salvage it enough for an 8th season. I think the biggest thing missing, is Luke's diner. It was the hub, the central point in the show. Lorelai went there all the time, even before she started dating Luke. Without that central area, all the parts seem disconnected instead of together. I hope that changes.

Here is my take on the whole season 7. Amy SP always gave “clues” as to what was “in the cards”, whether we got them or not. David Rosenthal seems to follow in these footsteps. He makes Luke say to Lorelai that she should go back to being Lorelai Gilmore and him as the guy who pours her coffee. Since it looks like the Season or a great part of it will be about Lorelai and Christopher and that there is even a hint of them getting married in November, the Luke and Lorelai relationship is a lost cause; the writers could not repair the rift in what is left of the episodes without making it look contrived. So Lorelai is going to have her “whole package” with Christopher and Rory. It won’t work out and in the final episode she will come back to the diner, all pitiful, and Luke will pour her coffee. And since I am prepared to bet anything that this is the last season, the last scene will be in the diner with Rory and the rest will be left to our imagination forever. Sad? Absolutely. I hope I am wrong but I am preparing for the worse.

only true lovers can hurt each other this much and only true lovers can forgive it.

LL are true lovers. so there is a going back for them!

"He never broke Lorelais Heart like Luke did."

He never will. Just because Lorelai doesn´t love him. He loves Luke. Simple like that.

well the new season is depressing me. The fairytale of LL got destroyed and its too heartbreaking for me to watch. they need to be together. otherwise its not working. I dunno why chris had to show up again. LC were over long before. 5.13 proved that there was nothing left to explore. she chose luke. so why repeating it over and over again? did you guys run out of ideas or something? so so sad that my fav show had to go this way. The only reason I always watched GG was because of luke and lorelai. and now thats gone. thank you.

i hope DR knows what he's doing. and I hope he knows that the fanbase is so not okay with the LC crap. give us LL back. please!

GG please stop this. give us the GG from season 1- 5 back. funny, nice and crazy. AND LUKE & LORELEI. i read the storys about the next episode. but i know - i dont watch them. i hate the Chris and Lor thing.

What does it always mean "the dark Side of Lorleai"? Luke breaks Lorelais Heart! Christopher is bad for Lorelai? He never broke Lorelais Heart like Luke did. That Sherry become pregnagt was an accident.
I´m happy that the LL Realationsship comes to an end. It was horrible. It was boring.
Go on Rosenthal make Lorelai happy, save the old Gg Spirit.

L/L not a couple. It had to be folks. Lor has to go find out again why Luke has her heart. Christopher is the perfect, life-sucking enigma to accomplish that. Luke needs to lighten up. It is April that will accomplish that. I hope there are story lines built around this dynamic. From my POV, Luke's dark Day was the single most important story line produced. I brought out layers of Luke that we have never seen. It showed Lorelai how deep his angst runs. It shows how she and only she can improve his outlook on it all. I hope the writers have the courage to take this topic on one more time this season. I hated that they didn't explore it in season #6.

Gilmore Girls? Yes
Aerie Girls? A world of No!

hey
i love gilmnore girls so so so so so much i am liek a huge fan but i think that luke and loreli should get married or loreli should be with cris.......lol anyways so yea i just love this show so much and i think that it is just awsome that a mother a daugter can hav that kind of relationship i am so jelious

please keep this show

Does anyone else find that group of faky-let's-talk-about-gilmore-girls Aeres group (or whatever they're called) that interjects itself during commercials to be as obnoxious as I do? Please make them GO AWAY! I want to watch Gilmore Girls, in peace and quiet, with the standard normal commercials required - NOT a stupid group of so-called-friends I don't give a rip about talk about Gilmore Girls!! Ahhh...venting; it does a body good!

I remember when this show was witty and funny and fresh. Instead of keeping something that was working, they had to turn it into a crappy soap-operaish drama, and they changed the characters beyond recognition in the process.

I stuck with season 6 hoping things would take a turn for the better. I'm not wasting my time on such low-quality writing anymore.

DO YOU WANT THIS SHOW TO END??? COME ON!!!! ONE EPISODE DOESNT MEAN THE SHOW HAS LOST ITS CHARM AND HUMOR...

do you want this show to end? ppl answer me this

The Chris and Lorelai storyline is nauseating for me. The VCR will serve it's purpose of fastforwarding through THAT stuff. Hopefully when Chris is gone I can watch Gilmore girls again in its real time.

Although Scott Patterson gave an awesome performance as Luke on the season premier, the rest of the show wasn't worth my time.

DR's attempt to sell a "mature"/grownup Christopher has few if any buyers. The "I really enjoyed last night" line was disgusting.

The whole L/C relationship is disgusting. When Chris is gone, I'll return to watch.

In the meantime, tell SP that this fan will miss seeing Luke. The best part of the show was Luke and the diner. Now that Lorelai's seeking her teenage years with Christopher again, I'm not wasting any time watching.

I hope that GG regains consciousness and again gives us a show worthy of our time. Until then, adios!

PLEASE GIVE THE SHOW A CHANCE. I AM GOING TO KEEP WATCHING THEN I WILL GIVE U PPL MY OPINION. I LIKED SEASON 6. ALTHOUGH THE R AND L THING WAS JUST HORRIBLE. PLEASE PPL DO U WANT THIS SHOW TO END?

I know that this show has changed alot in 7 years, but everyone should remember that although the show is called 'Gilmore Girls', the first two characters in the very first ep were Lorelai and Luke. Setting up a standard that never changed, until now. If we the fans are turning this into Lorelai and Luke instead of Gilmore Girls, it's only because the writers have spent 6 years leading us there. Throughout all of Lorelai's relationships, Luke was a presence. Even when they were fighting, Lorelai turned to Luke when everything fell apart with Chris. To now try to convince the fans that Lorelai would jump into bed with Chris immediately after 'breaking up with Luke' is insulting. CHRISTOPHER HAS NEVER BEEN THERE FOR LORELAI. All of the people rooting for C/L, name me one time that Chris has been there for her when she really needed a friend (not random sex!). I am deeply disappointed in the direction that my favorite show is heading. I am a fairly recent fan that was hooked by the Luke/Lorelai relationship and am just sick about the current state. I am very sorry to say that I will not watch one more episode until/unless L/L are back on track.

Hi guys from the CW,

I liked the episode. It was like one of the old Gg episodes I fell in love with. But I couldn't enjoy it this much 'cause this LL rift is just pathetic. If Lorelai would love Luke as much as she told Sookie she does then she could have fought for him. But she let him go not the other way around. It's okay for me to keep them apart for a while but I heard about a CL realtionship. Have you lost your minds? Been here done that. God who do you want to kid? Watch it alone! When Chris shows up then I'm out. I can't do this to myself. This is cruel. A show should entertain not cause sickness. Why are you doing this to all your loyal fans? Why do you want us to suffer. What did we do to deserve that?

fondly,
a very sad fan

The premiere was good. Not fabulous, but good. Still, I'll be watching Friday Night Lights from now on. At least until the characters (mainly Lorelai's) start acting like themselves again. I keep hearing that Lorelai has a lot of personal growing to do, but I'm not seeing any evidence of that happening. And for an entire year now she's been a stick in the mud - first over Rory and then over Luke. Where did her spine go???
Until she finds it again, leaves Chris in the dust, and at least makes friends with Luke again, I'll just stick with watching the first five seasons in reruns. At this point it doesn't even matter if she doesn't marry Luke....but the show isn't the same without their friendship.
As for the premiere - the best part about it was the Lorelai/Rory interaction. We definitely need more of that again!!

This is the first GG episode I couldn't bring myself to watch. It is abundantly clear to devoted fans of the show that ASP set out on a mission to strip away the show and characters she spent 5.5 years building before her departure. It was childish, and I am disappointed that the new showrunner and the CW would allow the continuation of these toxic storylines. I read spoilers and will not be watching future episodes until the Lorelai/Chris/Luke debacle is over. Luke and Lorelai as a happy couple is the only way you'll get me back.

I loved the first episode. SP rocked. Rory was fun to watch. So DR did a great job. but honestly. If Lorelai and Chris arent over by hiatus nobody will come back. You have to thank the LL shipper that this show is still alive. And you'll lose them now with that LC crap. cause after LL happened in season 5 you cant tell anyone that she'll try something serious with someone else. I dont know whats going on in your heads and to be honest I really dont wanna know when such a crappy SL is the result. You're ruining this wonderful show. And those disappointed fans wont watch that. The LL fans feel betrayed. more than that. stop this crappy LC thing. you'll lose ratings. really no joke. even the normal audience will be pissed.

Love Lorelai and Christopher together. Luke won't even shave for Lorelai, much less change any other part of his life. Good riddance!

Honestly, I have loved this show from day 1, but Amy Sherman Palladino obviously intentionally tried to ruin this show when she left and if her successor Dave Rosenthal thinks fans want to see Lorelai with Christopher he isn't a fan, he's just a scapecoat. Lauren Graham is the only reason I keep coming back.

dear gilmore girls writers,

i haven't taken a poll, or done scientific research, or ran an internet survey--but i'm going to make a guess and say you haven't either-- over who lorelai should be with.

but here's just an assumption i'm going to make based on my having watched since the first episode and having read what other people are saying--

it's not supposed to be christopher.

a lorelai/christopher courtship? an actual relationship? christopher sleeping in the house luke built for his fiancee? an alleged marriage in november? bad ideas, people. at this rate you should just marry lorelai and chris under the hoopah luke built during a season that seems decades away from now. it'll be salt to the wound, but what difference does it make now?

I was just so depressed by this episode and this entire storyline (Lorelai and Luke). I remember when watching Gilmore Girls was one of my favorite moments of any given week and now it just makes me sad. This whole thing with Christopher is a giant leap backward for her character and a slap in the face to loyal viewers. If it goes on too much longer I just think I'll have to give up and stop watching.

Well, i liked the season premiere. We got great Lorelai/Rory scenes, Paris scenes, and scenes with the townies. I liked the writing and overall enjoyed the episode.

But, the L/L/C triangle is crap. Chris treated Lorelai like garbage for 21 YEARS!!!!!! Now we're supposed to think of him as the go-to guy now that he has money, give me a brake.

And everyone who says that Lorelai waited long enough for Luke, i think you better take a look back at the show. Luke waited 8 YEARS for her, then another 9 MONTHS when she wanted to postpone the wedding for Rory. Lorelai was waiting for 4 MONTHS when she gave Luke the ultimatum.

Lorelai is so selfish. Luke needed time to get to know his daughter, and all Lorelai could think about was HER. What a brat!!! Plus, she had no right to demand that he marry her, she didn't say anything for months. Then, she sleeps with Chris minutes after she and Luke fight, WTF?????

The idea that Lorelai is going back to Chris after everything he has done is unbelievable. He is not reliable, all he cares about his gettin some from Lorelai (which he proved with the 'booty call' and saying he had a 'great time last night' what an a**hole) and never cares about anyone else's feelings around him.

I agree that L/L need a break, but why put Lorelai with Chris? Why not have her single for once in her life? The lack of E/R and happy L/L interaction was apparent. The constants on the show were always the Gilmores, the town, the Lorelai/Rory relationship, and the L/L friendship. What's going to happen now that L/L aren't talking? This show has gone downhill, ASP jumped and killed the shark last year, but now DR is burying it along with seasons 1-5 of GG. We deserve better storylines after sitting through the crap that was Season 6, but now it seems that Season 7 will be just as awful and predictable.

I just can't watch the Christopher/Lorelai thing. I'm not whatching. It's just so wrong. So depressing, so disgusting. Destroy the past and the future of the show, IMO. Destroy the magic. Destroy the noble feelings. We don't deserve this. We, the fans, just don't deserve this.

I thought the season premiere was a good transition, but you are going to lose a lot of fans if you think we want to see Chris and Lorelai marry.

This is not the light and sparkly show it was in seasons 1-5; even with all the family angst,I looked forward to its humor and great characters.
Lorelai's selfish behavior has become tedious and, for me, not credible.
In the premiere, I thought the only really great part was Scott Patterson's acting. Just terrific. Luke remains a great character. I feel bad for the new writers who had to develop story lines from last season's mess, but please don't offer more of the melodrama that suffuses this show right now. Perhaps I'm not the kind of viewer you hope to attract to this show.

Bravo to DR I acually enjoyed the episode, I even laughed a bit unlike last season. I LOVE Paris she always makes my day, kudos to Liza shes so underrated. Scott oh-my-Lord if he said that speech to me I would just have my way with him on the porch. Amazing acting on his part I cried and cried I love how DR has made Luke more 3-dimensional and looking forward to the rest of the season. ( Except for the Dopey & Lorewhore scenes)

love

For the first time in going on 7 seasons, I was unable to watch the premiere of Gilmore Girls. I tried, I really did, but the thought of going back to where we left off at the end of Season 6 made me vaguely ill. This show used to be such a joy to watch - now, I can't bring myself to turn it on. Thanks, Amy!

i give this episode an okay. but u guys are all to picky. its one ep. u ppl are to easi to critize. everithing happens for a reason. i am srry that you ppl dont have a heart. if the "losers" want to stop watching all b/c the premiere wasnt up 2 everi1's statndards then fine. but i am gunna stick around. and that friday night lights thing sounds dumb. i have all the seasons and there all grreat. i have no reason to stop watching. i am gunna stick around for the whole thing. if this is its last season the fine but i will always watch the shows from dvd's and find a new show thats just ike this one. okay? so ever1 stop killing LG for her acting. get over it!! its not the end of the world.

The premiere was pretty good considering the hole that was dug last year. My problem with the current storyline is that Christopher, (the guy who was barely there for Rory), is turning into such a hero. If he is going to be redeemed in the audiences eyes, which at this point for the majority of fans is unlikely, (for six years we've been shown all the reasons to not like him), his history is going to have to be brought up and he's going to have to acknowledge the presence of his absence. I feel like for the past 6 years it has been swept under the rug and he's never been called out. He can't keep getting a free pass. The message that this show is sending about absent fathers is startling and disheartening. When does Rory start to wonder why exactly her dad only comes around when Lorelai is in need? The parallels between Luke and Chris as fathers is not all that subtle, and yet, it seems as if it is being completely ignored by the writers. Chris is no closer to being redeemed now than he was in Season 1. All this and still, from the promos it appears Lorelai and Christopher are going to give it, yet another, go. Great. How original, (and believable-where-oh-where did the real Lorelai go?). Wasn't this all settled at the end of Season 2? Nonetheless, if the hope this year is to redeem Christopher's character, lines like "booty-call" and "I had a great time last night" after Lorelai's obvious devastation, is not the way to do it. Instead of cute and funny, they just came off as cold and uncaring. And not so much as a frustrated sigh from Lorelai? Really? I'm sorry, I'm just having a hard time taking these characters I've known for six years and molding them to fit these storylines. It just seems so forced. Everyone did a great job changing and growing over the last few seasons, excluding last year, and now, they are reverting back to their previous selves. It's mind boggling. Christopher is not grown up, and is still as selfish as ever. He does have money now. (Which is a whole different can of worms that could be opened about what the audience is getting from this...) I'm just hoping that this stuff is going to be addressed at some point. Soon. Because seriously, YOU ARE LOSING US. When the audience wants bad things to happen to the heroine of the story, you've lost them. And this is exactly the case. I'm not just talking about in this fandom. I'm talking about every person I've talked to about the show-from co-workers to friends-they all say not very nice things about Lorelai. From wanting to see her sad and alone, to calling her names that I won't repeat in this family-friendly forum. Of course the hero/heroine is allowed to have faults, bad times, downfalls, (etc), but what is pushing the audience away is taking these characters who have seemingly overcome these faults, (a process that made them endearing to us in the first place), and turning them into the people that you had to learn to love in the beginning. It's negating any connection that we feel with them and frankly, just isn't good storytelling.

the season premiere was great. but LL broke my heart. SP was amazing. I cried. Lorelai is stupid. he just wanted time to get to know april before the wedding. god lorelai is selfish. what did you do to lauren grahams character? I'm so sorry for her. You ruined that character for good and now with this LC crap you will air, I feel the huge need to throw up. Who is going to watch that? do you guys honestly expect any ratings? you piss off the LL shipper and rub that crappy LC realtionship right under their noses? knock knock hello??? are you serious to win viewers with that? I dont get it. thats so pathetic. Good job to start a new network by getting rid of one of the most loyal fanbase by destroying the only thing that kept them watching over the years. clap clap. bring on that LC crap.

Thanks for continuing this mess !!! You had the power to change it DR, but you didn´t. Now live with the consequenses.
The ONLY highlight was Scott Pattersons performance. Hopefully he´ll get an Emmy nom.

Scott Patterson’s performance in TLM deserves an EMMY! He rocked, Lauren Graham not so much but she has turned in consistently excellent performances for years so I will let last week’s slide.

This story line is so contrived and boring and far below the standards that ASP set in seasons 1 -5 that I can not believe you are continuing with it. I get that ASP was drained of creativity last season (and angry at the network and possibly insane) but DSR is relatively new to GG (second season) so what’s his excuse?

I hope the ratings tank and the CW puts pressure on Warner Bros and the writers to bring L/L back together soon. I won’t watch until then but I will check the spoilers for a while to see what is happening.

This is so stupid. The writers had this opportunity for such a wonderful story showing these two dysfunctional and emotionally wounded individuals learning to trust and work together. The writers threw that possibility away for a trite and boring soap opera story and had to destroy the main characters to do. I can’t understand how the writers thought that bringing back Christopher (for the 3rd or 4th time) was anything but redundant. Where’s the creativity in that?

I wish that they would change the name of the show to something like the Days of Our Gilmores so not to disrespect the first 5 seasons. As far as I am concern this show is not Gilmore Girls and the main character of this show may be named Lorelai but she is not the Lorelai I loved, she is a poor imposter and not interesting at all.

I really loved the premiere. It felt more like the old Gilmore Girls than it did last year.

The only issue is that David Rosenthal is taking two characters that need eachother and love eachother and ruining them. No matter how much the first ep felt like G.G., once Luke and Lorelai stop talking, and Lorelai goes off and pretends to be in love with Christopher and marries him, its no longer the Gilmore Girls I knew and loved.

DR has a lot of work ahead of him if he plans to keep any L/L or even just Lorelai or Luke fans involved. If Lorelai's truly in love with Chris, and Luke really doesn't care about being with her anymore, than that's not Luke and Lorelai, and they'd be even more out of character than they were last year.

I'm sticking with the show, cause I can't give it up, but he needs to make sure we're not doubting Lorelai and Luke's true feelings... and they need to start working out their issues soon, and not right before the finally. But not having L/L talking between ep. 2 and 7 is crazy. They're such a big part of the show, and to just not have that huge aspect of the show is such a crazy risk, that probably won't work out in Rosenthal's favor.


On a different note, I loved Rory in the premiere. She was more like the old Rory I used to watch for in seasons one through four. Sure, she was more grown up, but she wasn't the boring Rory she was through season 6. So, I'm so glad that David Rosenthal is managing to get me interested in Rory's story lines again. And that's something major in my book.
