Gilmore Girls - Series Finale (2007)

I am a huge Gilmore Girls fan, but I was very disappointed with the series finale. There had been on-going negotiations with the cast for another, perhaps shortened, season, but the main two characters declined. The episode taped was taped to be either a season finale or a series finale. It would've been fine for a season finale, but it did not do justice to a series finale, and I am quite upset about it!

First of all, I am upset at the way things ended between Rory and Logan. They had a very strong relationship, but she turned down his marriage proposal because she likes uncertainty...? Who does that?? She still could've had her uncertainty about her future career while married to Logan. Then he didn't even make an appearance in the last episode.

Luke and Lorelei kissed in the finale, after Lorelei came to learn that Luke went through much effort to put together a going away party for Rory. What the hell is a kiss? For a couple such as them, who had been engaged previously and were supposed to have gotten married, a kiss is meaningless and doesn't mean anything, in my opinion. It's no guarantee that they will end up together.

But the ending scene was sweet, seeing Lorelei and Rory in Luke's cafe at 5 am pestering him about what to eat for breakfast. I would've liked at least a shortened season to have seen Luke and Lorelei get married, only then would I have been satisfied with the series ending.

Stars Hollow will be missed!
