well it's an end to an era. my most favorite show had it's finale tonight. i got hooked on the show during it's second season my second year in college. we didn't have tv -- no i take that back, we a tv it just wasn't hooked to anything besides the electrical outlet. my roommate was a fan and since we had no way to watch her aunt would tape them and after she got 4 on a tape she would mail it off to idaho. the day it would arrive in the mail we would all get together and close the blinds, pop up some corn and watch all four episodes straight. and we'd watch those tapes over and over again. it was heaven. the writing is fabulous. the acting is amazing. oh the banter between lorelai and luke. their chemistry is excellent (well no wonder -- they're dating in real life as well).
but now, it's over. the series finale was tonight. after i got home from church i sat down snuggled aidan against me to eat and watched the last episode EVER. blah, it was boring. i didn't feel any closure to anything. ugh! whatever. i'm soooo dissapointed. they left everything up in the air, i felt it ended with a dot dot dot and not a period or even and exclamation point. after what i've read even the cast wasn't happy with how they ended things. kelly bishop (emily gilmore) described the finale as "disrespectful to fans". edward herrmann (richard gilmore) says, "we’ll never know, because we didn’t know it was going to be over. you don’t have the emotionally satisfying moments. after seven years, each of those storylines needs its own episode, almost." i guess they were too caught up in negotiations of whether or not they were doing next season that they forgot to write a good ending to this one. arg, it just makes me crazy.
