Gilmore Girls: Season 7
S**H
And I will always love this show (tribute to Lorelei's karaoke)
I admit, I read the spoilers and Season 7 episode summaries (DVD insert) before watching the final season of my favorite TV show. I always wait to watch the show only after a complete season has come out on DVD, as catching the occasional, commercials-ridden WB/CW episode would be frustrasting and incomplete. So, it was like Christmas before Thanksgiving when my long-awaited Gilmore Girls Amazon order arrived this past Tuesday. Since Tuesday, I've done little else besides watching episode after episode until I finally made my way through the entire season this evening.I was expecting the worst. Review after review bemoaned how all standards had gone to pot after Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino split when the CW didn't meet their demands. I was prepared for forced dialogue, the stellar wit that set this show apart (and kept its viewers on their toes) taking a nose dive. What I found, however, was that the Gilmore magic was still there, witty dialogue intact. Yes, a lot of things happen during this season, a sort of "pulling out all of the stops" in terms of plot twists and turns. Yet Christopher and Lorelai's marriage and subsequent divorce plans didn't seem as contrived as it sounded when I read complaining reviews and the DVD insert. Yes, it was a rebound, impulsive marriage, but it was made more plausible by Christopher and Lorelai's (lifelong) history, Rory's paternity, and Lorelai's personality. I even briefly rooted for this doomed marriage, despite my preference for Luke.Other storylines: lucky Lane, who proves that one time is all it takes, knocked up during her disastrous honeymoon, and even luckier Sookie (pregnant with baby #3 after her husband's noncompliance with a vasectomy mandate); though both women eventually come to terms with their pregnancy and see it as a blessing. Luke gets partial custody of April (I wish I had been that together in the eighth grade); unfortunately, Lorelai's written character reference for Luke in the custody battle threatens Christopher, cementing divorce plans. The one plot twist that I thought was unconvincing/completely out-of-character was Logan's "now or never" marriage proposal. Usually, Logan wasn't a now-or-never kinda guy, and he only recently turned 25 himself. He should have known to give Rory her time and space before expecting such a commitment. I guess the writers wanted us to know definitively that this relationship wasn't going to work out whereas Luke and Lorelai were (hopefully) in it for the long haul. Though if you analyze Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" lyrics (Lorelai's unintentional "serenade" to Luke during a tipsy, countrified rendition of this early 90's hit), or see the movie, "The Bodyguard" (which I haven't), you get that the two lovers never get together, despite their mutual sentiment and goodwill. But the kiss on the lips sealed the deal for my interpretation--hopefully, they'll work through whatever is holding them back and get together.I love Luke's characterization (though the grunge flannels and backwards baseball cap gets a little old); he's such a sweet guy. Kirk is over-the-top as usual, beyond quirky but a little short of DSM-IV, nonfunctioning insanity. Paris and Doyle are so cute together, and Doyle will follow wherever Paris leads. Richard and Emily are still Richard and Emily, but they show their appreciation for Rory (and Richard tells Lorelai that Stars Hollow's tribute to Rory is as much a celebration of Lorelei as it is of Rory--I was bawling unabashedly during this scene, along with Luke's "I just want to see you happy" gesture to Lorelai). Emily seems to be one of those "one step forward, two steps backwards" types of people (the way she treats her maids and "socioeconomic inferiors" is an obvious sign of unhappiness, i.e., how an uppity attitude backfires). When you see her softer side, you see her dark side in full-form a few scenes later. Yet it was sweet when she contrived a plan to keep Lorelai in her life. She was going to spot Lorelai a loan to improve the Dragonfly, with Friday dinners (mutated to business get-togethers from time-to-time) part of the interest-free arrangement. But Lorelai promised that she would continue coming to Friday night dinners without any other reason than to keep in touch with her parents, as these dinners were now a well-established ritual.Yes, like other fans, I'd like a ring on Lorelai's finger and an exchange of vows with Luke, but a kiss will have to suffice. Yes, like other fans, I'd LOVE a WB 2-hour TV movie to wrap up loose ends and let us glimpse into Gilmore World for just a little longer. But my rewatching the seven seasons of the Gilmore Girls will have to suffice for the time being.Loved the extras that featured a day in the life of Keiko Agena and the Gilmore Fashionistas. I love Lorelai and Rory's wardrobe...all those beautiful clothes just sitting in storage (did I mention that Lauren Graham and I are about the same height and build?)...But mostly, I just love this show. Kudos to the creators and writers of this very special TV series.

The Best show ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This show is the best show ever this show makes me laugh cry and even think about what is really going on in the persons mind. i guess we all have our thoughts and ideas of what we like but i know what i like and if i had to pick one show to keep on air forever it would be gilmore girls. some people hate this show some people but love this show and im one of them. iguess you could say i really connected with the ideas and humor that luren and alexis put out there. season 7 was a great season no doubt but but it was missing something and it was the best writer in the world amy i feel amy is the most talented person in the world and dont forget her wonderful team. i think that seasons 1-6 were the best but i think season 7 put something else out on the table and i think that that is that every little person int that stars hollow is importent to rory and her mom luke and the grand parents even the person who stud in the cornner playing the gatar. Gilmore girls had the best cast and crew ever and i wish they could have stayed and done so things diffrently. like have rory saying no to logan her boyfriend of 3 yrs that is sad i think logan was the best for her he really brought out a diffrent person in rory and i think if the series had continued rory and logan would have gotten back together and married soon rory and logan had been thrugh alot and i think they are perfect for eachother. and in my mind they are happy and together. the doubble L cupple were ment for eachother to they wenty thrugh eerything even when they werent together. that was cute they both secretly like eachother and all that time they couldve been together. even know the series ended i could say we are relly lucky that they gave us thoughs 7 yrs to this show and made it witty funny and you know they talk so fast and that is so funny. but i can sat i really felt part of that twon we ccall stars hollow the first time i saw it i knew it would be a hit and i fell in love with it. every laugh brake up death and adventure they took us through and made it the gilmopre girls we know today i have to sya i will miss turnning on the tv on a tuesday night and say what should i watch and know that empty spot on my t-vo and find out what else to watch. i sware i cryed every minuite of that finally and i sware i still cry. i could watch seasons 1-7 every day and never get boerd and still laugh cry and wonder why they did that though i will miss this spical show i know that in my heart there will always be a place for the gilmore girls and i cant wate to grow up and share my collection with my child and show her my faverate show in the world. i hope the have a tv movie to that would be nice. them all back together again. i sware there will always be a plce for the gilmore girls in my lifeTHANK YOU FOR THE BEST 7 YRS EVER GILMORE GIRLS !!!!!!!!!!!!

Un Adieu que l'on voudrait un au Revoir et un Bienvenue avec des relents de Rebienvenue
Avec la saison 7, nous entrons dans le SECOND AGE de Profilage.Le SECOND AGE nous offre une renaissance de la série qui tel un Phénix renaît de ses cendres dans le même nid. Adèle, nouvel oisillon, maîtrise plus que bien le nid et les autres volatils présent; reste les effets et actions, les militaires diraient collatéraux, de la famille (au propre comme au figuré) sur notre nouvelle psycho-criminaliste.L'image est effectivement rendue en format 16/9.En France, le contenu est recommandé pour «Tout Public» alors qu'en Allemagne la recommandation de visionnement accolée aux 6 premières saison est «FSK 16»; ce qui me semble plus logique.1 Étoile : Il n'y a pas de Bonus. Niet Nada Nothing Kneine!2.5 Étoiles : Pour la fonction de lecture enchaînée des épisodes sur les disques.3 Étoiles : Pour avoir relégué les effets clounesques avec les vêtements aux couleurs pastel digne des premières années de la TV en couleur au quatrième rang. La série et l'intrigue y gagnent en sérieux.3.5 : Étoiles : Pour le cheminement de la nouvelle profileuse officielle. Une nouvelle MENTALISTE est-elle née?4 Étoiles : Pour la réduction des scènes de Poste de Police et conséquemment pour l'augmentation des scènes extérieures et Dieu Merci peu parisienne!4 Étoiles : Pour le jeu et surtout les expressions faciales de la jolie interprète, au visage Gallo-celtique, d'Adèle Delettre.4.5 Étoiles : Pour la réalisation. la gestion d'acteur, le montage, le découpage et principalement pour l'intérêt porté au non dit exprimé par les mimiques. À cet effet l'AGE ADÈLE i.e. la saison 7 constitue réellement un spectacle audio-visuelle à ne pas manquer.4.5 Étoiles : Pour l'augmentation psychodramatique des intrigues ainsi que le maintien au stricte minimum l'usage des armes à feu.Il s'agit d'une saison à voir, à revoir et pourquoi pas à rerevoir d'ou l'intérêt de posséder une copie sur support Dvd ou BR.Il n'est pas nécessaire d'avoir visionner les saisons précédentes pour apprécier cette nouvelle mouture de Profilage, toutefois avoir pris connaissance des épisodes antérieurs impliquant Adèle Delettre constitue un plus afin d'apprécier à sa juste valeur la présente production. TF 1 aurait pu penser produire un tel Dvd portant sur les «Préquelles de l'AGE ADÈLE».La dernière scène de la saison 7 nous tient en allène... Vivement la ... non les prochaines saisons.

Gilmore Girls - a contemporary classic
A modern take on the fairy tale concept - with plenty of quirks and twists. Crown this contemporary classic the Queen of Dramedies! Dysfunctional family dynamics, nutty neighbours, hip teen mom and her gorgeous genius kid. I loved it the first time around (2000-2007) but it's even better now, watching commercial-free episodes daily.Buy the entire DVD box set - right now! Don't wait! It's this summer's "must have" entertainment, to bridge re-run season into fall. Invite your gal-pals over and luxuriate in this delightful gem of a series.Keep the Handbook of Gilmore-isms handy (there's one with every DVD). Anyone under 40 will need it to decode the snappy whip-fast dialogue between Lorelai and Rory - the coolest mother-daughter TV duo of the 20th century and beyond!
