I'm still seeing mixed messages or lack of dramatic focus or something lacking in LG's acting and what the show is trying to portray. DS seems to know he's portraying a whiney jerk, SP seems to know he's portraying a guy who lost the love of his life but is carrying on with his own life and trying to still be her friend, but I don't get what LG is doing right now at all. She's portraying Lorelai as so so passive with Chris. She yelled more at Rory back when Rory was still young and really cute, she's certainly yelled more at Luke and E&R. But she's just letting Chris behave like a 2 year old and then pleading and pacifying. And letting him walk out whenever he feels like it. And if this is a road to the end of L/C and possible restart of L/L, it's pretty wishy washy and flat. "You're the one I want to want." ????? Does that mean she gave up on Luke so quickly because she really wanted Chris, but when that doesn't work out will go back to Luke for lack of anything better to do? Or does it mean she really loved and wanted Luke but feels he's through with her absolutely so she gave her all to making it work with Chris? I really feel that none of this will be really satisfying until Lorelai says out loud, I still love Luke and still want him. All this, Chris is second choice, no Luke is second choice, is Chris the rebound, was Luke because she thought Chris would never be ready, really getting old and tiresome. As much as I can't stand the Chris character and feel that Lorelai ending up with him would be a travesty, her muddling around indefinately, or never making a for sure, 100%,all the way in choice, for either, would be worse. I agree a woman doesn't necissarily need a man, but with the whole sl here from season 1 being what it has been, to end this with drama and punch and satisfaction, I think Lorelai needs to make a choice and be really happy with it. (And if she has any brains it will be Luke)
