Thanks for that, although I'll miss GG it would be nice if VM gets a final chance, maybe match with Pussy it will come into it's own and GG was holding it back

I think the fact that the girls were even considering it - even a short season - says they were willing to hang in there if terms could be reached. It seems the CW wanted the show back and, to me, it was on them to either give in to what the girls wanted or put an end to it. In the end, they chose not to agree to their terms. It does happen all the time.

I haven't seen anything in the press where anyone is blaming LG or AB - all I've seen are reports on the show's ending and a recounting of LG's comments so far.

I agree, they did the job they were paid for, they tried playing hard ball and lost.

I got the impression that they went to the CW/Warner with the 8 ep plan and then the CW ending it without further talks and this is why LG was surprised at the dinner, nice way to find out BTW. Why not wait till the next morning?

IMO they is a very slim chance that they may came back now they know what the CW wants. Guess it all depends on the promo we get in a few hours, SERIES or SEASON end?

Thanks for the Ellen clip on youtube, Blaab!

Was there no Global promo this week? Or did just no one catch it? I'm so not looking forward to tonight's promo. Even though I know everything we know, it'll probably still hit me hard to hear them promote the series finale.

Yeah what happened to Global?

Maybe they dumped it 'cause it's been cancelled LOL

I was wondering about the global promo too! Sad, since now we'll only have one last global promo ever. However, like Katie, I'm nervous to hear the words 'Series Finale'....I wonder if the tears will start again. Hope not--just starting to find some peace.

Hope this week is good--feels like there hasn't been specs about this week's episode with all the S8 news, so we'll see.

Anyone around to do the PBP???? I know someone also usually does it on the RL thread, but I don't know how many plan to watch the episode with what goes down for them.

Oh....was checking out gilmoregirls.org & wow, they are still campaigning for a S8.

Abandoning the sinking ship.
And isn't the CW promoting the hell out of it?
Weird. Maybe they're afraid the ratings will shoot up and they'll look foolish again for letting go of a good show.

JLarah · 05-08-2007, 12:58 PM

I don't think I want to see them promoting the series finale.. Yes, It deserves a great promotion, so the fans tune in. But It would make it more real ..

And if they don't promote it, there's always the chance of it not being the end.

Silly, I know ..

I'm blaming the Network. LG wanted to come back. She wanted to make things good for LL and bring them back to where they were before Amy destroyed them.

lancer1993 · 05-08-2007, 01:06 PM

Is the CW promoting this weeks ep a lot?

IMO the networks are idiots, they let a great show go when it's one of the best on their network with still 2 weeks left before the final announcement is needed.

i didn't think so. i would have thought there would be some heavy promoting going on, not just with the announcement of the last 2 episodes, but with the fact that rory's graduating. i know they say it in the promo, but it's nothing compared to what i think they could have done. perhaps something along the lines of "4 years ago we saw her graduate high school, on tuesday night, rory gilmore graduates from yale." but i guess that's asking too much.

lilmelodie · 05-08-2007, 01:11 PM

I saw the commercial for tonight's episode several times while I was watching the morning new today.

JLarah · 05-08-2007, 01:14 PM

Did they mention something about the finale?

**Katiegg108** · 05-08-2007, 01:14 PM

Aw, Kirk's tour today is making me all sappy. It just has to be the gazebo? And they just have to show the NAIL kiss?

They still aren't airing any "2 more episode" promos. Tonight will probably be the first one.
