She's always been imperfect, as have lorelai and Emily. But many of us continue to identify and like them in spite of their character flaws.

They're all real and messy and uncomfortable at times.

I have very few complaints except for the
Musical (liked it, but could have been shorter. However, adore Sutton Foster and all the other Bunheads cameos-Sasha, Ginny!) and lack of more Lane.

I was never invested in which dude Rory would end up with so that prob helped.

Also loved the Arrested Development shout outs with Paul.

Who are these people that can identify with them?
I haven't met one yet. I knew many who could identify with the original characters a single mom making her own way, doing the best she can and sometimes at odds with her parents or the teenage girl that's smart and naive and occasionally makes a poor choice.

Yhe spoiled 1% ers that are completely self-involved , too good for any kind of work and only thinking of themselves not so relatable for most adult women.

Really? I find it very relatable. Like the PP I am the same age as rory (a few years younger), went to a private school, am a wasp, and lived in connecticut for a while. The show to me is like coming home.

It sounds like you are a spoiled 1% the rest of us don't crash on friends couches, play the part of the OW and not work because the job available to us are beneath us at 32.

I you really think Rory is relatable to most American women of her age bracket you really need to broaden your horizons at your age.

That said, I heard ASP was going to ignore one big part of Season 7 for this revival and I think it was the Logan proposal. After all, Logan walked away back then for good. He wasn't going to chase after Rory and now he's back (with the LDB, even) ready and waiting for her. He would've jettisoned the fiancee if Rory had asked him to.

This is the Season 7 that the Palladinos wanted but they had to fit it into the box and it didn't work in all areas (the musical, the "Wild", the stupid nanny family living with Emily) but, for the most part, they achieved what they set out to do. It just wasn't fulfilling for the fans.

I think the bolded is wrong. I have been on many message boards reading, and most people are overall satisfied. There is this tendency to play critic and nitpick things apart on certain corners of the internet (hello reddit, DCUM, and the comments section of anywhere) but for the most part, people were satisfied and the critics (who are also fans) were satisfied.

Most fans I've talked to have been disappointed.

Oddly, the truest love I feel in this show is Logan's towards Rory.

You think that is love? Interesting.

I think Logan does love Rory and had she asked would have come to her. But she didn't. She wasn't ready to commit to a job or a man. It would have been interesting to see her mature with a child- that would sure change her life!

I just want to thank the poster who said Amy stopped writing at season 7 and this is what she WOULD have written if she'd continued, thank you.

She wrote Rory for age 22. Not age 32. that makes a lot more sense.

I'll just say I disagree with you/

I feel lots of Logan love for Rory. He asked her to marry him. She wasn't ready. He still loves her.

Yep. I think it makes the episodes less frustrating if I keep this in mind. I did like the reboot for the most part.

That said - the ending is really the worst. The whole point of Gilmore Girls was that they didn't have to follow the traditional paths to be happy. But then, look - Lorelai HAS to get married to be fulfilled and whoops, Rory's pregnant. Ugh.

Spoiler----







So she's pregnant. I assumed it was Logan's but my husband reminded me of the 1 night stand. Was that too far back in the year?

Also, Logan & Rory deserve each other- though I really did like him.

Also, It was cute but I'm slightly disappointed.

She is NOT pregnant by the wookie. That would just be so embarrassing.

It can't be the Wookie's -- that was in the Spring; the wedding was November 5th so she'd be upwards of 6 months pregnant by that point... would definitely be showing and she was drinking through the LDB events

I completely agree.

This revival makes much more sense as season 7 than 10 years later. ASP wrote this with Rory being 22 years old which is much more believable. It also makes it more believable that Lorelei and Luke might not have had a serious discussion yet about kids and would have been young enough to consider it. Also, it was hard to believe that both Jess and Logan would be pining away for her after 10 years.

Were ages ever discussed? Did anyone on the show say Rory was 32 vs. 22?
