Thoughts on last night’s episode
Overall, not one of my favorites – it was just missing that zip and zing a bit to me. Where was Luke? Why was he only in the show for 2 seconds at the town meeting? Aren’t we supposed to be seeing his “journey,� too?
I didn’t really like all the Luke bashing. Sure, he messed up BIG TIME last season by not letting Lorelai know about April and then for not letting Lorelai hang out with April for that matter, etc. So I understand that Lorelai has a ton of anger. But remember, at one point, Lorelai said he was “the one” and retreated to her bed when he dumped her after Emily and Richard’s vow renewal fiasco. I know she’s still upset, but I’m upset that strong, independent Lorelai is jumping from Luke to Christopher without so much as a pause. And comparing Chris and Luke is like comparing apples and oranges. Where was Chris all of Rory’s life? Luke was there for much of it.
Aren’t they trying a little too hard to show the perfect happy family with Lorelai, Chris and Rory in the car grooving to “Come A Little Bit Closer�? Has he really, finally grown up?
What did you think?
