Travelling man...it reeks havoc on a lady's hair.

Another stupid question, how far is it from SH to Mia, now assuming they go to North Caroline (It was the state indicated on the promo, was that a spoiler or something?) I've worked it out to about 600 miles so I guess they have at least one stop on the way, hence the hotel room.

With every thing else going on I wonder how much of the trip we see?

ETA - I'm just sitting here watching the V8Supercars run around the streets of Adelaide.

It's a bit longer - about 750 miles.

The state wasn't a new spoiler. We already had the article from the Charlotte News that they go to Charlotte, which is in North Carolina. The map in the promo put Charlotte on the wrong side of the state.


eta: Congrats on 6,000, Sandlynn.

Thanks for the new thread, Blaab!

Heh, having a life is highly overrated. It means you can't just sit at home in your pajamas and watch hours and hours of Gilmore Girls. lol.

lancer1993

caf it's all these little bits I keep forgetting.

BTW - I was using a ruler and map of the east coast to try and work out the distance LOL

Actually, if you believe in the Universe being a cool lady, then being a life is whatever you believe it to be. A life is a life. Be it fancy or in stripes. Be it curved or straight. Be it tall or short. Be it fat or skinny. Or driving a mini while in a bikini. A life is a life is a life. If it were not a life. It would be a dingy, but that's a horse of another colour. If you believe in those sort of things. Those sort of things in which I sing.

YAY for Sandy! Don't go getting TOO much of a life, we'd miss you here.

Remember an Ellen interview with Lauren they were talking about mooning other cars, any chance Lorelai would do that if she was banished to the back seat for playing with the windows, she did flash the swim team once and might get boarded on a 750 mile trip!

OT - one time I drove about 750 miles in less than 10 hours, fun

TheJSW

Craig, this thread, would not be the same without you. Seriously, that's a thought. A really trippy thought.

lancer1993

Yeah but somehow I don't see it happening, hey maybe that's why she wanted to roll the window down LOL

Seriously passing trucks in the outback at 140kph serious FUN!

Hope you didn't hit any crossing roos on the way, Lancer.

The next episode looks like a nice combo of humor and heart. I like those combos - I think this is still one of the best deals in town.

6000 Congratulations, Sandlynn!!

lancer1993

No, I was too quick for them, anyway there are probably more camels where I was... yes you heard right.

I'm just wondering how much a part of this road trip will be in the ep. It looks like it starts with Lorelai organizing it and the Rory, Logan and Mitchum scene. Then what, they go on the road trip and as a side story we have Luke going to dinner and Lane rushed to the hospital. It sounds like a lot is going to be packed into the ep.

Hope we get a hospital scene with Luke, Lorelai and Rory, maybe even Emily sees what kind of a man Luke truly is!

TV GUIDE PODCAST MARCH 2, 2007

DM = Daniel Manu
MA = Michael Ausiello
AC = Angel Cohn
MMcD = Maitland McDonagh

START 19.50

DM: Mike, as always, ton of letters about Gilmore Girls.
MA: Hmhm.
DM: This week. And, first, what did you think of the episode overall? I kinda Sookied most of it, personally.
MA: I Sookied quite a bit of it myself, but the stuff I didn’t Sookie was fun, you know, it was entertaining. It wasn’t the worst or the greatest episode ever.
MMcD: That’s a ringing endorsement there.
AC: I finally realized why you didn’t like Sookie, this week.
DM: Why is that?
AC: No, there was, like, a moment when she was sitting there and she was so, like, annoying and whiny. And even though I’ve always liked Sookie, I was like ‘okay, now I really see why Dan doesn’t like Sookie’.
MA: I felt like this week they didn’t --- for the first time I really got a sense that they don’t know what to do with Rory and Logan. Like it just seems a little bit like they’re inventing conflicts.
AC: But, like, it’s similar to what they did with Christopher. Like, “we don’t want them together, so we’ll just make him a jerk”. So it seemed kind of, like, “oh if we wanna keep---“
MA: But they want Logan and Rory together, so it’s kind of a different situation. I just think that there aren’t really any --- they’ve run out of conflicts, obstacles because there’s no way to keep things interesting, so… And this one really just felt a little forced to me. But, you know, unless I’m mistaken, I think Alexis Bledel is getting --- is developing into much a better actress than she was at first. Just watching her episode after episode, she’s really comfortable, confident, and really believable. It’s kind of nice to watch.
DM: Our friend Sylvia in Italy, Mike, is worried about how little time there is left in the season after episode 19 which is when Luke and Lorelai--- Lorelai goes into Luke’s Diner.
MA: How did they know about that?
DM: I think they got it from you.
MA: Yeah, they did.
DM: From your vodcast, I think, is where you broke the news in your new vodcast called the Ausiello Report.
MA: Correct.
DM: Is that enough time left in the season for them to really rekindle their relationship or is that gonna happen right at the last episode.
MA: I think that’s plenty of time for us to leave the season feeling like those two people are in a really good place. And if it’s a series finale I think, you know, we can drop all kind of expectations about where that’s headed. And if it’s a season finale I think we know what next season is gonna be all about.
AC: What do you think the odds are at this point that it’s coming back?
MA: I would think the odds are pretty good that it’ll be back.
DM: Really? Didn’t that negotiations and all that they were taking care of with both of them.
MA: I don’t know, it’s just a gut. I really don’t know what’s happening with negotiations. Aside from the fact that Lauren is more likely to come back than Alexis. Or Lauren is more amenable to returning. But I just feel in my gut that there are too many people that want this show to come back and usually when that happens, the show comes back.
DM: And, Mike, a listener named Bob wants to know ‘Is there any chance Adam Brody will return to the show’?
MA: Yeah I answered this in Ask Ausiello.
DM: What did you say?
AC: You did.
MA: I said no, no chance in hell. Adam Brody was up for a huge role in a very buzz-worthy fall pilot, but turned it down. So if he turned that down, there’s no way he’s gonna go back into a stint on Gilmore Girls.
DM: Why do you think he turned that down? Is he just---
MA: He wants to do films.
DM: Oh. Okay. Well, who doesn’t? Good luck.
MA: Or at least give it a shot, you know.
DM: Good luck. Uhm, our friend Craig Best has 24 questions for you, Mike, about Gilmore Girls. Fortunately it’s all the same question repeated 24 times, “when will Luke wear the blue cap again?”
MA: [sighs] I don’t know.
DM: Do you get a lot of questions like that?
MA: I think it’s just him.
DM: It’s just him? Just Craig?
MA: Yeah.

Errare humanum est

This might be a double post, but heh.
I don't know how many nights... But when I was on tour, they were working on ONE motel room...so that'd mean that all three girls share a room. Fun

Maybe use Google Maps? From Hartford to Charlotte is 762 miles (about a 15-hour drive).

Cappuccino

They nearly shared one room way back in season 2 at the Bracebridge Dinner when Emily had the fight with Richard but yeah it should be fun

Thanks for the thread Blaab
