Erm.. Zach actually has a job as well…. And thats band salary x 2, which could actually be alot.

Oh, by the way, GREAT job on the “Don’t blame Veronia” banner. You do some amazing stuff with those!

Great points all around. I too agree, Lorelai and Chris’ chemisty is great. The thing that bothers me is that he is just an obstacle for Lorelai and Luke’s inevitable happy ending – An obstacle that’s been used far too many times on the show.

LOVED Lane and Zac’s story-line. Who knew they would be the highlight of the season so far!

One was when Zack, afraid of Mrs. Kim’s wrath over the news that he and Lane were pregnant with twins, said, “Hit me! Hit me! It’s not her fault.” The other was when we find out what happened to Brian upon Mrs. Kim moving in with Lane & Zack. Brian now gets to live in the Kim house and mingle with Lane’s Korean relatives.

The Lorelai and Christopher stuff was painful at times. Like everyone else, I knew what was coming and just wanted it over with. It is impossible to deny a chemistry between Chris and Lorelai, considering their shared history and their comfort with one another. I just can’t make up my mind whether that chemistry works in a romantic way.

Did anyone else notice that Chris & Lorelai said “I love you” to each other at least twice each? It took until season six to hear Luke & Lorelai say that to each other, and that was more than a year after they finally started dating. There’s no doubt Chris & Lorelai love each other, but I’m not sure they should in a romantic way. Because he’s loaded with money, Chris can dress up any date or vacation as being extremely romantic, but in the end, can these two live together and get along with each other day after normal day?

Overall, I’m more pleased with the direction the writing is taking this season compared to last season, and I don’t envy David Rosenthal for inheriting the last year’s horrible storylines. However, moving past season six’s painful finale by allowing Chris & Lorelai to actually get married before the inevitable turnaround back to Luke is excruciated to watch and may be going too far. I don’t even dislike Chris, nor do I think they make a bad couple. They’re just not the couple I want to see together. I agree with TheTVAddict; they’re just killing time.

Lastly, is it just me or is much of the fast-paced Lorelai dialogue from the last few episodes finally starting to get a little annoying. You can’t like this show and not like the fast-paced chatter, but some of the lines Lorelai has had lately have been lower on wit, humor, wryness, and insightfulness than usual. Sometimes it feels like someone is practicing writing lines of fast dialogue instead of writing dialogue we want to hear, but the practice lines are making it in the show anyway.

I guess we wouldn’t be TV addicts if we didn’t complain and nitpick, so just to clarify, I still like season seven more than season six, so far, and I’m sticking with it and will continue to have high hopes for the remainder of the season and maybe even one more year of GG.
