MA: I was disappointed that Amy left Gilmore Girls.

MA: That was a big disappointment.
DM: Well, I can believe that, but you were not disappointed by the season of Gilmore Girls that followed, though.
MA: Uhm, not initially, I mean I’m not overwhelmed—
DM: Really?
MA: With excitement about this season. I don’t think it’s a great season, I ---
DM: Because you kept saying, you know, there’s no difference between this season and the infamous writing, so if Amy was writing it, you’d still be disappointed in her, right?
MA: If Amy was wri--- yeah, I mean, I’m not --- the thing about with what Dave is doing is, he’s, the show still feels like Gilmore Girls to me, but then that isn’t necessarily always a great thing, because last year, it felt like Gilmore Girls but the plots and the stories kinda sucked.
DM: Right.
MA: So I’m not crazy about some of the things they are doing this year, but I’m pleasantly surprised that it’s as good as it is.
AC: I mean, I kinda have the entire CW network on my list that disappointed me this year.

MMcD: You know, it’s a terrible---
AC: They show his bangs.
MMcD: His bangs are there, and uh, doesn’t spend as much time brushing them out-- off as he does on Heroes. His part is really badly written and he is not able to transcend it; he just comes of as a whiny little punk, frankly, you know. It’s like [whiny]’ehhh, my father is famous, ehhhh[/whiny]
AC: It’s Jess!
DM: Anyway.
MMcD: Anyway.
AC: His character on Gilmore Girls is very whiny.
