no no she looked confused. JMO.

last year there were so many good spoilers and at the end it played out really bad. And now we're getting very horrible spoilers so I think it will play out nice

I'm going back to my lala land. I'm not believing a crappy LC marriage until a serious source confirms it and ausiello is not a reliable source for me. he often is with small spoilers but that? oh no. he didnt know about april. he didnt know about lorelai sleeping with chris. all major spoilers he got from us! in my opinion DR knows how to scare away the fans and that he will not do when he's planning an 8th season.

I'm still looking forward to the season. LC marriage would piss the majority off. not going to happen! but well JMO. I'm an optimist here. I dont wanna ruin my day

CW Launch Party
The David Sutcliff interview:

MA: I’m with David Sutcliff from Gilmore Girls, and I don’t know if you know this, but you’re kind of in the middle of an internet firestorm here. Luke-Lorelai fans are a bit bend out of shape that Chris is back in the picture. Lorelai just can’t get this out of her system. Your reaction.
DS: Uh, well, I have that effect on women. Uh, no, I’m aware of it, I did an interview for somebody in on online magazine and I was shocked at the response that it got, and I realized how controversial my character is on the show, and how, you know, he’s hated, you know, I think it’s probably like a 70-30 split like Luke-Christopher, so I’m only 30% of that. There are— I do have my fans, but mostly I have detractors. But for me it’s kinda fun, it’s a lot of fun to be that character and it’s also the opportunity to win over the audience this season. I’ll be doing a lot of episodes this year an maybe, just maybe, I think, bring those fans over. That’s my hope, that’s my goal.
MA: Now, how many episodes are you doing? There’s a lot of speculation: 13, 9, 16, give us a number.
DS: Well, I’m gonna do the first 13 episodes and then we’re talking about uh, a certain number of episodes in the back 9. We haven’t quite figured it out yet, uh, so that’s what’s going on. Right now, it’s varying from 13 to 16 episodes this year, so.
MA: Is it fair to say that this season Lorelai and Christopher are gonna make a go of it, in the way they had before, like really trying to make this thing work?
DS: Is it fair to say?
MA: Yeah. Is it accurate to say, is it fair to say, knowing what you know?
DS: I don’t know. What did Lauren say when you asked her that?
MA: I didn’t get to that, they pulled her away before.
DS: Yeah, I can’t really answer that question, I mean, that’s like a major story element. If I gave that away, I’d probably get into some big trouble. I’m around a lot, you can draw your own conclusion.
MA: Well, Dave Rosenthal actually already told me that there’ll be a romance between Lorelai and Christopher.
DS: There you go. We’re gonna develop that romance, we’re gonna see where it goes, I don’t know, I get it as the audience does. When the new script is delivered, I read it, I find out what the next story development is and I’m just as surprised as anybody about where it’s going and it’s part of the fun, part of the excitement. I don’t ask what’s gonna happen, so it’s sort of like, you know, God coming down every ten days delivering a script and you find out what’s happening in your life. It’s kind of, kind of fun. So far the scripts have been really good, the story lines have been fun, Lauren and I have a good time working together, we always do, and uh, you know, I think it’s gonna continue, I don’t know where it’s going but right now definitely there’s some romance happening.
MA: Could you see the show ending, the final season, it being Lorelai, Christopher and Rory, you know, the family back together again, happy?
DS: I think that’s probably the fantasy for a lot of the viewers; ultimately having the family back together would be uhh, I think, cathartic for a lot of people, because the trauma of a split family is very difficult, and I’m sure a lot of viewers of the show can relate to that personally. So there is that there, but I actually think for me, it seems to make the most sense, that the show started with the two girls together, kind of on their own, dealing with their lives, and it seems to me that it makes sense to end the show with those two together on their own dealing with their lives, that would be my pitch to the writers, and I think that would be the most logical conclusion, but you know, if they hook us all up, that would be a good ending too, I wouldn’t be mad.
MA: Now, I heard a rumor, last question here, that there might be a trip to Paris in the future for you and Lorelai. I’ve got good sources.
DS: Yeah, you do.
MA: Please tell me they’re actually gonna send you to the real Paris, not some backlot on the Warner Bros. set.
DS: I wish I could tell you that, dude. No, they’re not sending us to Paris. We’re not Ocean’s 13, we’re an hour television drama, and we’re uh, Paris is the backlot of Universal. But uh—
MA: Is it really Universal?
DS: Yeah, yeah.
MA: Oh, so at least you’re going across town, about a mile.
DS: Yeah, we’re going across town. Friday night, it’s our trip to Paris. I think there was, apparently, there was a 30-second, you know, conversation like “Let’s go to Paris!” and everybody got exited and then somebody with some sense said “Uh, no, you’re not going to Paris”. So that’s as close as we’re gonna get this season. Uhm, which is just, you know, kind of disappointing. We’ll take what we can get.
MA: All right David, thanks for stopping by, have fun tonight.

Craig the video is really "heavy" on the tvguide page. I saw a 5 minute interview in 15 minutes. The streaming is slow.

lorelaisgirl

Vid worked fine for me, it only skipped twice in my hour transcribing. the rest will follow, but not right now, b/c i got some shopping and packing to do. but who knows how far i'll get tonight.

squidsmum

So MA actually knows more about whats coming up and seems to have all 22 scripts even before the actual stars of the show. I think the guy is playing so many mind games he is actually believing his own hype.

lancer1993

Maybe it will pop up somewhere soon but after reading the DS stuff (thanks lorelaisgirl) I don't know if I want to see it now.

It's sounding more and more like they are forgetting the last 2 years happened at all, what happened to the "Lorelai Pining" at it's over by the hiatus? well I think that's all gone now.

I would not mind half as much if this SL had happened and L&L had never hooked up, I really feel down now and as I said like the last 2 years were jsut a bad dream,

Run Luke Run!

Mornin'....

I am overwhelmed by all the info and interviews. Thanks!

I don't understand how the writeres are going to go onto more seasons if they don't definitely have LG and AB.
If this season is the last, I don't see how they can put LL back together after Lorelei and Christopher have a relationship for 13 episodes.

Goodbye LL....I'll miss you so.

I feel......

Sandlynn

I'm pretty sure this part is actually DS talking, not MA. It doesn't make sense otherwise.

Can you imagine how frustrating that would be? Lorelai and Rory can't have a relationship with anyone but themselves. After seven years, they're back to square one.

Ciaobella

I actually think SP, LG, MC (who was absolutely adorable) and DS know exactly what's going to happen and they are towing the company line. They're not going to give anything away.

And I truly believe L/C marry in November. Why not? Makes sense now. All this talk about C being in Lore's life in a Big Way. MA saying it's the Biggest Thing to Happen to GG.

It's not even about the Journey anymore. It's all about keeping L/L apart any way, for as long as they can.

Remember the summer when we were speccing when L/L would reunite? Some people even specced a November wedding. Ha. Wrong couple. (Not mocking. Just sad).

Okee, I still have a lot of catching up to do from the next thread, but I just saw the Interviews of MA ... and well I liked seeing all four. Again Matt is one classy guy ... I also liked David and Scott and well what can I say about MA and him interviewing LG ... the guy is either pretty, well stupid, because it is so obvious what he is saying or he really is playing games with us ... I dunno, if they get married, I will still enjoy this SL, since it is still pretty obvious the marriage won't work out (the not enough epis for DS ...) ...

Okee, back to catching up ...

squidsmum

Dont disagree with you Bella. and as I have put on the L/L thread I am going to watch this season in the same way I watched season 1 for the Gilmore girls. The guys Luke and Logan have just been a bonus and i will still hold a torch for L/L but I am going to watch now to see if at the end the girls are happy, to see if they can get back into some form of real relationship with each other and with E/R and if they end up happy at the end I will be too.

After all the interviews and spoilers nothing else can disappoint me it can only pleasantly suprise me, so i am not optamistic but I am not pessamistic either I am watching the Gilmore girls.

little_earthquake

ITA he so is. I mean come on everyone saw what he was telling her. he so plays with us. so ausiello!! DONT MESS WITH US!!!! you wouldnt want to miss your spoiler source we are CIP but we're not stupid!

Ciaobella

Well that's the way we may have to approach this season Karen; No Expectations.

Bootie

On the bright side - at least DS will likely only be in 3 episodes after the experiment, and one of those has to be Rory's graduation. Right? lol.

Ciaobella

And another one will be when he signs the D-I-V-O-R-C-E papers. And the last one will be him begging Lore for One More Chance.
