AA is up

Ask Ausiello, TV Show Spoilers and Scoop from Michael Ausiello - tvguide.com

Quote:

Question: Please, please, please tell me that Gilmore Girls isn't planning to make Lorelai pregnant and then do a whole "Who's the daddy" mystery. That would definitely veer into jump-the-shark territory. — Karl

Ausiello: Allow me to put your mind at ease. Better yet, let show-runner Dave Rosenthal put your mind at ease. "That will not be happening — I promise," he says of a potential paternity stumper. "There are no sharks anywhere near our set and there will be no jumping of them." Rosenthal can also promise that within the first couple of episodes, Stars Hollow will experience a bit of a baby boom. Translation: Luke's sister, Liz, isn't the only one expecting. "There will be more than two babies born this season." Oh, and one more thing: "There also will be a marriage this season," he reveals. "I can’t say exactly when, but somebody’s getting hitched." Send me your guesses! My money's on Paris and Doyle.

Question: I couldn't disagree with you more re: the Luke-Lorelai vs. Lorelai-Christopher chemistry on Gilmore Girls, but to each his own. More importantly, I get the impression from your comments and your interview with Dave Rosenthal that we are never again going to see L/L as a couple on GG. The most we should hope for is a last-minute reunion in the series finale. Do you think this is the most likely scenario? — Cally

Ausiello: It depends how you interpret Dave Rosenthal's following comments: "Do I think Luke and Lorelai ultimately are soul mates? I do. I really do. But does that mean they’re going to run off together tomorrow and live happily ever after? No. They’re at a point where they both have some regrowing and changing to do, and some things to figure out."

Question: If anyone tries to berate you for your bravery in admitting that Lauren Graham sparks with David Sutcliffe, let me know, and I'll beat them up. — Janet

Ausiello: You can start with OrangeSherbert7, who posted a comment on my blog accusing me of pushing for a Lorelai-Christopher romance to curry favor with Rosenthal. That's crazy talk. I'm pushing for a Lorelai-Christopher romance to curry favor with Lauren Graham. Duh.

Question: What happened to my favorite Lorelai-Luke fan? Have you been brainwashed? — Lou

Ausiello: For the record, my position on this issue has not changed: I'm still pro-Luke and Lorelai. But after the events of last season, they clearly need a break from one another — and us from them. Let's hope absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Question: I can't figure out your Gilmore Girls season-premiere asterisk quizzes. Can you please give me another hint? — Hannah

Ausiello: OK, I'll fill in some additional letters. Rory and Lorelai spend some quality time together at a *a********l c*u**, and there's a very silly subplot involving Michel, Sookie and *r* w******ng. (Hint: Someone got the second one correct in last week's AA.)

Question: Do you have any more information on the time lapse that may or may not occur between the first and second Gilmore Girls episodes? — Jennifer

Ausiello: Actually, I just learned that GG's traditional summertime skip will take place between Episodes Three and Four. The first three episodes are essentially one continuous arc.

Question: I will love you forever if you tell me one thing: Do Luke and Lorelai have a scene together in the Gilmore Girls season premiere? And if so, is it really sad? — Kel

Ausiello: Yes and yes.
