He did address it on his podcast. He understands that fans don’t like her because her character was to cause problems for L&L but he loved it. He liked that it developed more layers to his character.

Scott Patterson said on his podcast that he didn’t like it. He said he’d have to see a script before he’d decide to do another one. He hated how dumb they made his character and also what they did with Rory.

It was the most serious issue between mother and daughter, more than quitting Yale. They would have worked that out.

Rory was totally wrong to sleep with a married man. She only said Lorelai was mad because she didn’t talk to her first to deflect the blame. It was wrong of Rory to manipulate her grandfather. Had she not did that and moved in there they would have worked it out. She was a baby hearing Mitchem’s opinion.

I don’t like her storylines at all but I thought he was a jerk. She was open to him leaving the country to work and now that it was her turn to spread her wings, it was his way or the highway.

I’m curious, besides being Christopher, what has he done to apologize for?

I like this author too and never saw it on Fanfiction. I’d love to read it. “It was never uncomplicated” was my favorite of hers.

I was so excited to see it. I expected to see conversations between the characters to fill in the nine years, but no! It is obviously 9 years later but it’s like it’s only been a year including driving the jeep and truck. Scott Patterson wears a dumb wig (giving him more hair than before) and giant flannels. Lauren Graham’s Botox makes her once wonderful facial acting look weird. Plus they still don’t communicate. When I fast forward through all 4 seasons and watch the parts I kind of like, I’m done in about an hour. Rory is more of a train wreck than ever. Emily has the best story of them all. I’ve seen some people like it but not many. If you do, I’ll look forward to your feedback.

I guess I always felt it was because of Luke as well because of how she was looking for him in the window, and how sad she looked at him. Plus, she admitted to Sookie and Chris she still had feelings for him.

So, I took “you are the man I want to want” as they are married and she just wants to make the marriage work, but knows she really does love Luke. Nothing about their history just the commitment. April had a lead in a show called “Switched at Birth”. Ironically, she has a guest role in Parenthood as a girl Lauren Graham’s son had a crush on.

The situation with Anna could have provided the angst factor alone for those two.

Hated this storyline with a passion. ASP said in an interview that they needed a plot to break them up but a cheating Luke would never work; wouldn’t be believable. However, evidently Sherylnn Finn was originally suppose to be the reason for the breakup.

Doesn’t it tick you off how much they dumbed him down as soon as he was dating Lorelai?

I thought the same thing. And apparently he went home alone on their wedding night...

The way the cast raved about the script, I expected so much more! I really expected conversations between the characters explaining what happened in their lives over the years. I missed Luke’s being the heartbeat of the town. It was just a plaything for ASP to write a stupid musical because that’s what she wanted to do. The hell with the fans that got her there. It’s was just plain awful!

In a word...NO!

Me too! I look for Olderniwiser posts too. It is fun to read new viewers observations and opinions.

So often we have mentioned recycled stories in Season 7 and I just noticed another one that I haven’t heard. When Luke went to Lorelai to elope he told her about the car crashing through his dinner. He said said their is a giant hole in my dinner. Lorelai had a giant hole in her bedroom in season 6. Just thought it was funny.

Hated spring almost as much as summer. But I can watch the whole revival in just over an hour by skipping to the parts that were okay. GG would have been better without it IMHO.

I can’t remember which episode at a FND the pendant on Lorelai’s necklace was off center. At some point it was corrected. There was a fast back and forth conversation between her and Emily and the pendant moved from the middle to off center every shot. Drives me crazy!

I still laugh that Luke finally had a bag of flour fall on his head! Good thing his insurance covers him!

I could have written this because I agree with this 100 percent!

This is what I was going to say too. As unhappy as most of us LL fans were with season 7, those two were probably happy with having so few scenes together.

I find what Lauren Graham doesn’t say speaks volumes. She talks a lot of her wonderful TV friends from GG and Parenthood and Scott Patterson is never mentioned. He is also one of the few she does not follow on Twitter. Now, being able to see more of their off stage personalities on social media, I can see why they don’t socialize.

SP said they offered him a few more episodes after the pilot but he held out for a longer commitment so he a got a regular gig.
