Spoilers - Gilmore Girls S&S #175 ~ Let's Hug It Out Shippers - Page 3

clmorrow · 03-07-2007, 07:44 AM

Well, unless Variety got it wrong - the show has been picked up for the Fall. I've been looking around for a blurb that includes SP's name as being attached to it and can't find one - does someone have a link to one that mentions him as being in it?

FROM VARIETY:

CBS picks up 'Babylon'
Network also adds Silver's 'Twilight'
By JOSEF ADALIAN
CBS:

Pickup -- "Babylon Fields," an hourlong zombie-themed hour described by CBS as a "sardonic, apocalyptic American comedy-drama where the dead are rising and as a result, lives are regained, families restored and old wounds reopened." Gerald Cuesta and Michael Atkinson wrote the pilot and will serve as supervising producers. Michael Cuesta, who directed the pilot for "Dexter," will exec produce and helm via 20th Century Fox Television.

Considering she has so many relationships. She can take her time. You don't always have to be with someone...

About SP's pilot. I doubt CBS would have picked it up already. I don't think they even have shot the pilot. They are still casting, right? How do they know it would be any good?

But anyway, if were picked up for next year. Scott's first position would be Gilmore Girls. If it comes back. He's likely to return to GG. And they would recast the pilot.

You often get recasting during the summer, once shows are picked up. There are often conflict of interests or just realizing someone is better for the part than the person they had originally cast.

So chances are still strong unless Scott doesn't want to return to GG's. His part in the pilot would be recast if GG returns.

A) No one ever "needs" a man, whether they're 20, 30, 40 or even 50. So, don't get all mixed up. Neither Rory nor Lorelai "need" a man.
B) At 22/23, it's not uncommon to be in a long-term relationship and even at the point of getting engaged.
C) If one were to wait until their career was established before then "looking for a man," that person would be well into their 40s.

Oh. I wonder if they just mean. They picked up the pilot order? Meaning, they will produce the pilot to CBS for consideration. And then CBS will make a decision.

Unless it's a high profile series like from Aaron Sorkin last year with NBC. Where it was immediately picked up for series. I doubt they would just pick it up without seeing it first...

This could mean, it's just picked up for the pilot. And no committment has been made for the actual series.

I would think CBS would want to see how it actually looks like before committing.

But I could be wrong.

But still unless there is something we don't know, Gilmore Girls is the one Scott is committed to. Unless that changes, I don't know. So even if BF is picked up for a full series, they will likely recast. Unless Scott doesn't want to return to Gilmore Girls.

But I am pretty sure he's obligated to GG's before he would be, to the new pilot.

maybe the big arguement is Lorelai yelling at luke that he changed his boat, he changed his car but he can't change not loving her

oooh i like that

and thanks for the spoiler

clmorrow · 03-07-2007, 07:57 AM

We don't know the particulars of SP's contract - we don't know if he any contractual obligation to remain with GG if it is picked up for an 8th season. Even the girls supposedly don't have that - why would SP?

Since it sounds like he's not the lead in this pilot, I would assume he would stay with GG if it is renewed, but who knows what he wants to do - if it is true that the show is coming back then I'm guessing we will hear about it soon enough and have all our answers....

Yeah that's maybe right, although there are lots of woman who are already married at this age ...

I would like to see them together, that's all and I would find it senseless after a season with growing and intensifying of this relationship when they'll break them up because of her career ... honestly would you give up such love for for your career (no matter how young or old you are)?

I think we have the same opinion here *high five*

"Pick-up" just means it has been ordered to pilot, not to series. They haven't even filmed it yet, and the network won't order it to series until they see it.

futon critic info on the show

I realize that. No one needs a man. All I am saying to the previous poster is that Rory doesn't need someone to go home to at this stage in her life, if she doesn't want to.

Yes I realize people do get married at Rory's age and younger. Personally I can't see Rory getting married right now. But it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. My sister was with her fiance for almost 10 years from age 19 until last year. They eventually broke up because they were moving in different directions even though they were engaged and living together in a house they bought together.

All I am saying is Rory doesn't necessarily need a relationship right now. Doesn't mean she couldn't find her true love next year. Or Logan can come back into her life down the line and they settle down. Very possible. But given that Rory is just starting out, she can concentrate on her professional life if she so chooses.

clmorrow · 03-07-2007, 08:00 AM

So, where is the mention of SP being in this pilot? I can't seem to find it.

Tara Ashley · 03-07-2007, 08:02 AM

Thanks Caf for the thread! And I didn't catch who came up with the title, but I ADORE it!

I'm ecstatic about the news, and I thank you Sarah and Jason! When do you think we'll have public confirmation? I'm going to try and hold off going nuts-o isnanely happy until then, but it's hard...

I think we have the same opinion here *high five*

Well if Logan and Rory breakup and we don't know specifically if they do, yet do we? If they do, we don't know whether it's because of her career or other factor's. Maybe Logan messed up life is a factor. It was in their fight in yesterday's episode.

I guess it comes to a point for Rory to decide whether Logan is the man she wants to spend the rest of her life with. Can she see herself with this man 5 years from now, ten years, maybe raising kids with?

Or was it just a university relationship. Serious but not permanent. They definately have made progress, grown together.

But I don't necessarily see it as a life-time relationship.

But that is just me. We'll see how it all works out.

And, all I'm saying to you is that no one needs a man to go home to - at any stage in life, if she doesn't want to.

Again, women are quite capable of having a man and starting off their career. Don't underestimate Rory. Just because she's starting off her career doesn't mean that she can't have a man. Does that mean that every single journalist stays single - not even dating - until their career is well set? What about lawyers? Doctors? Because I can start pulling real life examples of the exact opposite.

She doesn't need one, but she has one and they appear to love each other. No one needs a relationship, but do people break up because they know the next morning the sun will rise? What is the point of saying you love someone, if it has no consequence?

wej5541 · 03-07-2007, 08:12 AM

Its now even easier for Rory to stay with Logan while starting a career. Logan no longer has the pre destined life that he always had to deal with. Now he can go where ever Rory finds work.

If Rory and Logan break up over his "life being messed" then they should never be together. That's one of the most stupidest reasons to break up. Being a couple, being in a real relationship means that you try to work things out. You stick by the person until you've done everything you can and there really isn't anything left to do.

People don't break up after every fight they have. If this were so, the divorce rate would be MUCH higher than it already is.

I have to laugh at the "university relationship - serious not permanent" comment. Oh - that's just rich. I'm sure my friends would get quite the kick out of it. EVERY SINGLE ONE of us have married or are engaged to the person they were dating in university. Perhaps we're just the bunch that skew the data? Shame on us.

You don't need to see it as a life-time relationship... because let's face it - many of us don't see a lot of relationships as life-time ones, yet those people still get married. Our opinions don't count. But, don't belittle someone's relationship because of your messed up perceptions of what relationships SHOULD be like.
