I cannot stand Christopher, and even worse, I can't stand Lorelai when she's around Christopher. He turns her into a whiny, annoying teenager. She was actually starting to mature with Luke and now she's totally regressed. One day she'll realize that she's only with Chris to avoid her feelings about what happened to Luke. That day can't come soon enough for me!

I miss the rest of Stars Hollow. Too much Christopher, not enough Lane, Miss Patty, Kirk, heck I even miss Taylor!

I think Lorelai needs this time with Christopher. If not, it would always be a "what if?". He's the father of her child, deep down she wanted that to have worked out from the beginning. They love each other, but they're not right for each other. I'd love to see a mature break up, even after they do something totally Chris/Lorelai - something rash.

No offense, but are you sure you're not just REALLY pro-Luke/Lorelai that you can't see the greatness of Chriselai? Because the way I see it, she's so over Luke and is ready for a man who can commit; Luke couldn't do that. He's the weaker male specimen. Plus, she's falling in love with Chris, and how could he not? He can romance--unlike Luke.

Sorry to disappoint, but no. IMO, Luke and Lorelai are gonna end up together, they're right for each other and they will end up together. However, they needed this break up. They both have an excessive amount of baggage, they need to have everything out of the way. For Lorelai, that is Chris. The thing about Chris and Lorelai is that something always came in the way, most of the time that was Chris' behaviour. They didn't have a fair shot. If they haden't had this chance, Chris could always be in the back of her mind, and even more so - in Luke's. Luke watched Lorelai attempt with Chris several times. Who wouldn't want to end up with the father of their kid? He's the guy her parents want for her, he can give her everything she needs financially, he loves her, he's the father of her child. Problem is, he's not Luke. He's not the guy that drives her nuts, who loves her daughter unconditionally, who was there when she had the chicken pox or who wanted to kill the guy who put his hands all over her or who'll let her pull linked sausages out of him... Luke's the one.

"I don´t think I ever really loved anyone... until Luke."

Luke may not have a lot of money and pull the drive-in movie thing, but he's the guy she wants to be with, that much is obvious. She wants kids, wedding, the whole shebang. With Luke. He messed up with how he dealt with April, but it's not like he didn't *want* to get married. That's why I loved the fight in 6.22, both of them had good points. Luke is Luke. That's what Lorelai fell for. He's not a big gesture, your-own-drive-in, fly-you-to-Paris-for-a-weekend kinda guy. But Lorelai isen't that kind of woman either. I love that quote by Amy, about why L&L haden't said 'I love you'. They did, with actions. They're not two stepford, perfect people.

Even though C&L get married (and, I hear, annulled right after), I can't wait for 7.10! Bring. It. On! I can't wait to see what this special moment between L&L in 7.10 (the Christmas episode) is. I hope Rosenthal breaks up Chris/Lorelai in a mature way though, since they only have David Sutcliffe for 13 episodes this season (assuming one of them is the last one, when Rory graduates). I like them together, they have chemistry, but that Luke isen't right for her because he messed up? Chris messed up for almost 20 years.

I truly think that we'll see L&L either on their way back together, or back together by the end of the season.

According to Rosenthal, the ending this season has the possibility of being both a season finale and a series finale.

Personally, I think L&L get married. That sets them up for a pregnancy next season like it should be (thus making the "kids would be good comment" even cuter). Rory graduates, we'll maybe see her try herself in the real world, see if Mitchum was right and that she's not cut out for it. I think GG has at least another year to go. They should finish the way the fans want it, and IMO, you can't do that in this last season, but it'd be fine if they end it the way it's speculated.

    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.
