I am new to the message board, but ever since Gilmore Girls began airing I have not missed a single episode. I absolutely adore the Gilmore Girls. I own all of the box sets and I watch them repeatedly. I am a HUGE GG fan...but this season I have been disappointed. The writing isn't as good this year. I find that the stories are centrered far too much on Rory and Lorelai....which isn't a bad thing, but the thing that made them great was their interaction with the rest of the cast. We don't see Sookie as much....she's awesome. Where is Babette and Michel and Taylor and Jackson and Miss Patty and Kirk.....Mrs. Kim, Lane, Paris....I like Rory and Logan just as much as the next guy, but I can only take so much. I miss Amy writing the show, she needs to come back. Perhaps I am committing blaspemy....but if the writing continues the way it has, DO NOT EXTEND IT PAST SEASON SEVEN! Don't destroy GG like they destroyed seventh heaven!!!!
Don't get me wrong folks.....I still won't miss a single episode and what's coming in the New Year looks really juicy......but the "wit quotient" needs to come up a notch....and I miss the intellectual banter that had us asking, "what are they referring to???"
