Thread Rules

This thread is to discuss spoilers of the show, which includes analysis and speculation of what might happen on the show, or what people would like to see happen regarding Luke and Lorelai. The thread should not be used as episode discussion thread. That should be done on the Gilmore Girls board.
Be respectful. Not everyone is going to agree with you at all times. It's perfectly fine to disagree with someone as long as it is done respectfully, but do not attack other posters.
Don't tease! If you have spoilers that you aren't able or willing to share just yet, it's inappropriate to come on the forum and tell everyone that.
Please note that asking and/or begging for more spoilers isn't necessary. Our sources give what they can, whenever it is possible, and when the time is right. Asking over and over again won't make them come any quicker, or any more detailed.

Feel free to discuss everything about Luke & Lorelai. Have fun posting!

Thanks Mots for the thread.

Bringing this over from the previous thread.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if there will be any pictures released from the wrap party?

Unless someone decides to post pictures online themselves, no. It was a private party.

Wheredidtheanvilsgo? · 04-17-2007, 09:29 PM

Thanks Mots

Drats! Thanks for the reply though.

And Thanks for the new thread Mots!

Oh and I was serious about the WB Tour. Who wants to go and when?

2ggObsessed · 04-17-2007, 09:37 PM

Thanks Mots

Yeah, that one stood out at me also. The only times that they had conversations were at Jess’ book launching??? and when they ran into each other at the mall. The most April and Rory talked was at Jess’ shindig but even then I never got the sense that they bonded to the point that they would be seeing each other except for unplanned encounters. Rory was hardly around Stars Hollow and April moved to New Mexico. Strange indeed!

Cappuccino and Dirty Twin were right all along!

gjoni · 04-17-2007, 09:39 PM

Thanks for the thread, Mots.

Wheredidtheanvilsgo? · 04-17-2007, 09:40 PM

Is it wrong that I am excited about the short S8 but a little bit bummed because I am greedy and want a full season?

And they can even rub our faces in it and say I told you so! And I won't care, because I'm too happy!

Well, I enjoyed less than half of this season, so I figure 13 eps of L/L goodness is a big step forward.

Haha. I feel the same way.

I would love to go on a tour, Daisy. Just gotta save up my money. But I like the idea of a bunch of us going on a tour.

Javalava86 · 04-17-2007, 09:41 PM

Thank you Mots

ETA: I want a full season 8 too, but i guess we'll have to take what we can get

lancer1993 · 04-17-2007, 09:43 PM

Thanks Mots

wow work is hard today, I'll have to ask for a slow day every Wednesday LOL

Joannathe1 · 04-17-2007, 09:43 PM

Thanks for the new thread Mots, thanks for the spoiler Nicolalala

I was really excited to see the new episode and I must say I certainly enjoyed it. I thought the apology wasn't passionate enough, but maybe DR is doing a AS-P by making the big things small and the small things big!

I've watch the episode twice and it was really fun viewing. No one was hateful, no one had me hiding my eyes or leaving the room. It was really a fun GG episode. I was almost sick with excitment... counting down.

I love the new Promo... I love when Lorelai call Luke, I'm glad that she seems to want him back in her life so much. I am glad she found herself out of the maze and I hope L/L talk some more.

I just can't wait for Epi. 19. Even though I am sorta dreading Epi. 21., we'll have to wait on see how Lorelai react around you know who again.

if she's flirty and coy and quippy or will it be like exs this time.

Oh well, I'll just enjoy the next two episode and the upcoming kiss... that is if MA doesn't change his story again.
