The funny this is, Zach was the only character in season 7 that actually had any growth and organic moving after the entire relationship with Lane just happened. He took responsibility, wanted to be a good dad and do right by Lane. He also did it in a real organic way. Probably because his character hadn't been really been torn apart and told us to like it like everyone else in Season 6 from Lorelai to Richard. Lane ended up just floating and I had no problem with Lane's ending, she basically realize this was where life got her. She was so busy trying to not live her mother's life and that the band shouldn't have been her only ambition in life, but she did get something good out of it. She also realized, now she had to start thinking about a better tomorrow for her boys. Like I said in the end, the best ending for any of the GG character was really Lane and Zach who had the most thrown together, stories out of nowhere characters out of the last three seasons because really AS-P really didn't do much with them outside of getting them together and married because Dave wasn't coming back.

Its very true, I mean if The OC wouldn't have happened, then Adam would have stayed on the show. Both his introduction and character were well written and there was chemistry between him and Keiko from the start. Then when he left for Fox, they all of a sudden went: "Hey, we have Zach and he is 'hot' let's just work him to be the end game." Then we saw how that all went. I'm sorry, but it just felt like Lane's storylines went from making sense, from her having to move out since her mother was so hurt that Lane hid her life from her. To getting pregnant and having twins after one night of sex. Not to mention, Dave leaving the show just happened off screen. There was no real resolution, which I couldn't blame AS-P for, that was due to her schedule on The OC. However, he was just gone and then Lane realized she was magically in love with Zach. Which went back to the entire Hep Alien thing, when Lane revealed after their summer gigs they had money and Zach, Brian and Gil could have shaved and showed. That made even less sense, it wasn't like they were going to back door bars. They were in church groups and so forth, you can't tell me they didn't have free bread and shaving supplies for them? Gil also own a successful sandwich shop, he could go: "Hey here is a $2 razor and shaving cream for you buddy." AS-P had just a weird way or writing sex on GG and how she thought garage bands worked, but then again, it wasn't like Hep Alien wasn't anything, but a classic TV troupe: "I have a band that rules and my ticket to a the sweet life!"

I agree on that, deaf would have made more sense. As stated, Tara and Janet were so wasted characters and as interviews stated, the actresses were surprised they weren't coming back until they were about to film the next season and told: "Sorry, but Rory and Paris are moving out."

Taking bets now how much Uber will be mentioned in every pitch.

What is this plural form of "Kims" you use. We all know that Mrs. Kim was the only Kim around, and Mr. Kim was locked in a basement somewhere. In all seriousness, I can so see Lane's mother helping them out with her only grandchildren. In fact, Lane and Zach could have gotten on WIC or something else (I know, real world low in-come programs didn't exist in the GG Universe). Something that really is an UPO is on Lane and Zach's sex life. No, this is true, the way it was written, it was like after their disastrous honeymoon sex. Lane was oppose to sex ever again and Zach didn't seem to care. Instead of the message that was running rampant on TV series at the time of: "Sex is bad kids, don't do it!" It came across: "Sex will destroy your life! Don't ever think about it." Even the way Lane talked about it in: "That's what you get for making whoopee." Which was such an outdated term, I can't believe Lane even used it. I remember fans and critics said that was a horrible message to send. That a couple who is married, has waited and so forth have not only a disastrous first sexual experience. It results in getting pregnant and then the characters react like it was the worst thing in the world. When 1. Zach had long been experience in sex. 2. They followed the "Christian Rule" of waiting to have sex. 3. That married couples can't have a enjoyable sex life. Instead they had characters having causal sex with their girlfriends/boyfriends that only people in their 50s went: "How dare you have sex!" I mean, Luke said himself with Nicole that things went downhill in their sex lives when they tried to stay married. Emily and Richard acted like they only had sex twice in their lives after being married. Kirk and Lulu apparently only did it went appropiate. Sookie and Jackson did it and kept getting pregnant. It was like AS-P message was: "Sex is so bad, look what could happen to you if you are married!" "Do it while you are single unless you are in high school, because you will get a baby then." "Or if you are absent parent in your own kids life." "Then you will knock up your girlfriend and have more kids you have a hard time being a parent too."

Czuchry just revealed he was going to be on the Gilmore Girls renewal Netflix series that is currently filming. So, while not a lock schedule since it is suppose to be just 4 mini movies. That does keep him busy for a few months.

That's what made Lane and Zach just seem... odd as a couple. Then one who had such a bad honeymoon and then get twins after one bad night of sex. I mean, that was too much. Plus, what the hell were they supporting their twin boys on? I never really understood the money that Hepp Alien was taking in and what Lane and Zach were doing to pay the rent.

Truth be told, I hated everything about Hepp Alien when they were around. I was never a fan of Zach, even though I liked Gil, but really. She was a TV troupe of: "I have to have a band to get out of this small town where I can't be who I want to be." Yet, the only person who didn't know her was Mama Kim since she hid her entire life from her. Another thing, Lane's choice in music really was just stupid, not rebellious, not edgy, it was just... music that wasn't Christian and at the disapproval of her mother. I do hope when the Netflix series comes about and I know we will see Zach and the twins, I hope that Hepp Alien broke up, Lane and Zach became music teachers in fact, Lane as a band teacher would be perfect.

The difference between CBS and ABC is that CBS is starting to see shows that aren't pulling in the ratings, the reviews or anything and now are putting stops on shows they know are crashing and burning. Hence the cancelling of TGW and Mike and Molly, yet they keep letting Survivor and Amazing Race never end. ABC has this problem of going and going until really they see no more money in their shows anymore and the rest of the original cast moves on. Castle is so far removed, an announcement they are ending it now would be welcome, of course I love it if Grey's made that same announcement.

Speaking of characters thrown away to make room for the characters of Anna, April and Ugh... Liz. My UPO is that I really enjoyed Rory and Paris's freshman roommates, Tana and Janet. They had their quirks and what I really enjoyed is how they had different views on Paris and even Lane. It was very refreshing change of pace including the smack down Janet gave Paris when she broke up with Jaime and was hiding her relationship with her professor. I also enjoyed has Paris told Janet having her boyfriend act like he lived there wasn't professional or anything. They both had valid arguments. Ditching them the next season and then bringing in Lucy and Olivia just never made sense to me. Especially when Olivia Hack and Katie Walder weren't doing any other projects and Olivia Hack even said in an interview. She wasn't told she wasn't coming back until about a month before they they started filming the new season. Yet we had to have Jared, Milo, Wayne Wilcox shoe horned in every time they had nothing else going on because 1. AS-P loved them so much she used them even if it never made sense. 2. Because they needed a paycheck.

Yeah, Mrs. Readster and I were saying that the last two years have been showing how far the show has fallen. Very happy that everyone has decided to pack it up and move unlike other shows (Grey's, Survivor, Scandal). They also kept trying to repeat storylines that didn't work the first time and constant: "Let's bring Michael J. Fox in, that always works." when it doesn't. Plus, the political story lines just wouldn't ended. The moral ended up being: "I you don't get your own way, ruin someone else and don't stop crying until you get your own way."

Oh I know. I remember first season on Parenthood when the sister asked Crosby about Jabar being his son without a paternity test and not just take the word of someone. They had her get all in a humph until she explained why she did and they still got the test. Its a TV troupe these days or going off of Murry: "You're not the father!" Then again, the reason why April was brought in was to throw a wrench in Luke and Lorelai's relationship. AS-P has admitted it, her husband has, even Scott Patterson remembers getting the script and saying: "Really, he gets a daughter so his relationship with Lorelai doesn't work out?"

Yes, but you see my point. In the AS-P universe, the schools remain the same and don't get me started on Chilton.

Not a bad episode, and I do like that Eve is actually looking into other things that aren't military related. She has been established as being able to sing and play music for a while now. I'm happy they have touched on this, but really, no one has said: "You can still enlist or do ROTC." They are putting it to Eve that her life is over since she didn't get into Westpoint. No one has also brought up: "You still have a few months of high school let, enjoy it." or "Do you really think you are the only one who hasn't gone through rejection before for their dream school?" I had no problem with the house plot with Kristin, because at this point it makes sense. Even deciding to drop Kristin wants to be a doctor and now a restaurant chain owner for her father's business. She has the money now and is stable and Ryan is actually working steady too. Why not?

The same school system that let a man in his mid 30s be the male lead in a children's version of Fiddler on the Roof because he was dating one of the stage managers. The same school system that did not make any phone calls to the legal guardian of a student that was failing school by skipping. The same school system that let a korean women yell at a band teacher because her daughter wasn't getting the right set up during concerts and wasn't Christian enough? No, I don't see why they would let a pre-teen girl do a DNA science experiment to find out who her father was. From three men who would not be writing letters in the mid 90s or parents and April's "friends" not going: "Are you crazy?"

Something that also drove me crazy about Luke's character is how he would roll over to groups or people that wouldn't stop pestering him about stuff. I remember when the law firm that Nicole kept showing up saying that Luke had to want something from Nicole when the divorce was originally going to happen. He finally just gave them an answer so they would leave him alone and realized he gotten himself into bigger trouble as a result. Or how Taylor made it is his mission to always be up to some crazy idea that kept involving Luke. As much as Luke fought him on it, he still ended up being influenced by the town or even Lorelai and Rory at two points to just do it. Drove me insane. If I would have been Luke I would have had a sign on his diner saying: "Please just come in for good food and stop dragging me into crap that always backfires on me." THIS MEANS YOU TAYLOR AND KIRK!" "P.S. Ms. Patty, don't make me add you to the above line!"

Of course, Kalus is the main villain for the show, of course he keeps getting more chances. Vader would have forced choked him by now or if this was the current set, Kylo run would have sliced him to pieces. They just keep setting it up that Zeb is the one to take Kalus down in the long run, but they are drawing it out too much now.

Oh I know, and then Liz calls Jess and he comes to steal his POS car back. I found that just so ridiculous in so many ways. Even more that Jess opened communication between her after finding out living with his dad "didn't work out" according to Liz. More like AS-P thought the spin off series was in the bag from the set building to the cast and then the WB said: "You know, no, we don't want to shelve out the money. I mean, we have to focus on 7th Heaven more even though it is now #4 of our shows." Then AS-P through a hissy fit and decided to bring Liz on the show, which the ultimate goal was to give a reason to bring Milo back to the show briefly despite his various TV shows getting just 9 episode light up from the Brandford Diaries to that one show that never even aired even though Milo said after doing episode 2, he never thought the show would last. Yeah, I take Anna over Liz any day but seriously, these women took such advantage of Luke and he sadly nodded his head and go: "OK".

Oh exactly. I mean it has happened with cast members of The Middle because they didn't know if their show was returning this season because of last minute renewal and the same happened back in the day of ER. However, other show runners like AS-P have gotten that kind of thought process many times, when they leave a show due to creative difficulties and then ignore what happened before. Others roll with it if there are revivals like BeverlyHills 90210, Mystery Science Theatre 300 or Star Trek.

I could see that on all sides. We do know that Chris and Liz are going to be seen and Milo apparently is showing up at some point, if he's in "Winter" who knows at this point. However, considering it has been almost 10 years. The two kids in questions are in the teen/preteen days. In fact, I could see Kirk and Lulu having a kid or kids by now and they are like their parents making Kirk go: "Why has no one killed me by now?"

After Kyle's speech and Mandy's talk. I hope this will lead to either Kyle getting promoted, he be great as a sales manager instead of floor sales or Mandy gets her designs bought out. Be a good way to start them on their way. Its funny, despite the writers dropping Kristin wanting to be a doctor or Ryan having any ambitions to get a better job. I'm surprised that the subject them of having another kid hasn't come up. I hate to say it, but they are a lot more stable now and older and Kristin seems to be very focused on using the Out Door Man restaurant chains as her career now. Even just brought up for them to go: "We got the kid we wanted, and no reason to do it again because now we are married."

I agree, any job, once it becomes just about a paycheck and nothing more. That's when the job truly is worthless and when its with a show that has so many fans that are dropping it like a bad habit (which it is now). Its time to move on.

That was a very good episode. No political jokes, classic confusion and I was very happy with Kyle and Mandy's engagement. Plus, no Kristin, Ryan or Boyd. I do like that Kyle finally admitted he has played it safe. That's why he hasn't tried to seek higher management with Outdoor Man or a higher degree. Let's face it, how many people have done that. They find a good niche, have basically no debt, do a job they love, have a great social and personal life. Why do you want to rock what's safe? Let's see if we actually see Mandy and Kyle's wedding instead of it happening off screen like with Kristin and Boyd and I don't want Kyle's father to just magically appear wanting to reconnect to Kyle because he's getting married. Just leave it that his mom died when he was a teen. His dad couldn't handle it and he went to work for Outdoor Man after high school.

What's really shocking, I remember those kids on Double Dare. My school was told about the try outs in IL to go to filming during the summer. My name was put in with several others, but another school was chosen to participate. They however, never made it past the final round. Great episode, my wife of course saw only a few episodes. She didn't have cable growing up, but does remember the season it was on our local Fox network. I also loved Finder's Keepers. I completely understood Murray's situation, my uncle is the same way. However, he let his daughter become a football fan, but his wife's thing was crafts.
