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.

I'm not ashamed of being a WASP. if someone can find The Wire or whatever else relatable, why can't young, private school educated, white girls relate to Gilmore Girls? Get off your high horse.

You seem to think the vast majority of the world relates to that. They don't. That's not a high horse. That is reality. Broaden your horizons.

No, I don't. I was speaking for myself and the other PP relates to it too. Get. Over. It.

I have nothing to get over, you have trouble accepting that the life you lead and portrayed by Rory i truly pathetic for a 32 year old woman. You are under 30 so I'll forgive you and hope by the time you hit 32 you know better.

Wow. Take a Xanax. It's a GD tv show, for Pete's sake! Get a grip!

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.

You can tell this was made with love and a lot of attention to detail to ensure fans had all their questions were answered and got what they felt they missed with the series' abrupt end.

I am however, sorely disappointed with Rory Gilmore. When she was younger, Rory Gilmore emerged as a sort-of role model for young girls in an age when young female characters of TV offered nothing more than good looks and obsession with boys. (Compare her to Lizzie McGuire for exanple.)

In comes Rory Gilmore, a shy, quiet, bookish nerd who would rather wear shapeless tops and hang out with her mother on Friday nights than go to a party with the cool popular kids. She had goals, she had ambitions, she loved her mother.

It was so tantalizing and refreshing to have the good/nerd girl be a lead for a show for female audiences for once.

Rory made mistakes, for sure. But we were always told that this was "not Rory" and she was going to be a trailblazer and go on and do great things.

Instead, we meet Rory at 32 years old, jobless, homeless and involved in a love affair with an engaged man who has no real regard for her. She is so meek and feeble, she can't even score an interview with Conde Nast despite being a celebrated Yale alum and a Gilmore!

And then, she winds up knocked up by the same guy who can't respect her enough to even properly date her.

Why?? What was the point of following and rooting for Rory all those years?

Yes! You captured my reactions perfectly.

Anonymous wrote:Bunheads was a show written by ASP featuring ballet dancers and Sutton Foster as their teacher. Kelly Bishop was also on it as the free spirited ballet company owner. So it was perfectly fine for the show to show dance sequels and musicals. But on Gilmore Girls...no. If they wanted to do a Bunheads reunion, they should do it on a separate show. BTW, I loved watching Bunheads.

They should've saved the time devoted to musicals to show all the other characters like Lane, Paris, Luke, etc...

Yes! I think he is just waiting for her to say the word and if he is the father he would leave his fiancé in a second. I really wanted them to end up together.

Me too. The look on his face as she walked past him in the bedroom at the NH Inn was crushing. I definitely think he'd drop everything and go back to her but she's already turned him down once and I don't think he wants to be the one to initiate again.

As an aside, for those who think Vincent Kartheiser is an odd duck, do you think that affected the relationship/chemistry between Alexis and Milo? Maybe VK insisted that AB not be put into sexual situations with a known ex-lover. So, instead, ASP and DP put the two actors in a very Mad Men scene: drinking their "lunch" with a desk in between the two of them. Then they really never speak again...

Just weird crap I come up with...

My explanation for Berta is that Emily was lonely without Richard and trying to replace him. [/quote

^ This & I also think it was one of the things that showed how much she had grown/changed. In the past, she treated her maids like dirt but she treats her current maid like family.
