Lorelai + Christopher + Paris = ?

What is it with popular TV shows and Paris? First Rachel on Friends nearly took a job there. Then Carrie on Sex and the City had to decide whether or not she wanted to move there. Now, Lorelai and Christopher are headed there tomorrow night on Gilmore Girls. It's ostensibly to take Gigi there, but come on -- we know that something major and romantic has to be on the agenda.

Call us old-fashioned, but we're still sort of shocked that Lorelai has jumped into something so serious so quickly with Chris. What happened to Luke? It's like their relationship never even happened -- instead, Luke and Lorelai have moved on to separate lives and entirely separate storylines.

Now Lorelai's off to the world's Most. Romantic. City. with the guy that many of you love to hate, and we're just wondering what's next. And more importantly, is it going to be good? Bad? What do you think?

the latest episodes are bullshit. very sad! bring back the real nature of lorelai, her behaviour is totally weird. And what the hell is luke doing? He's not the guy for such things.. he changed much since the first 4 seasons. I miss him!

hehe yeah cap. one of the best episodes ever. I laughed my ass off. hahaha it all happened in one freakin hour :D great ^^ thanks for mocking this couple by showing them as 16 years old teenager. This episode was for the LL-shipper out there. and lorelais look at the end said it all. thank you :)

Call me crazy but that was the best episode this season so far. I bow to the master Rosenthal because he had the guts to mock the show and that relationship. Honestly Rosie you rock !! 100 ways how to NOT show a relationship and you mastered them all. Thank you ! You gave us JJs the best mocking material out there and showed us what a freaking joke that couple is.
You put every romantic cliché in that episode. The corny music in the background when our lovey-dovey perfect for each other couple was at the restaurant. The really beautifull looking fake Eiffel Tower in the background and of course our couple had to share a kiss when the sun starts to rise behind the Tower.
Of course they had to share an I love you but why just one - no make it three. Just throw them out there like they mean nothing. Wait wasn't that your intention ;)
And last but not least. Our couple had to share the best sex known to man. Just too damn bad Chris our 2 minute man struck again.
Waking up, counting the spots on the ceiling (boy those two have fun with each other), searching for food in the streets of Paris, going back to the hotel room, having the most amazing sex in the world, taking a shower, getting GQed up and heading out for the restaurant again - ALL that in ONE hour. Wow so the sex was great then eh - laughing out loud here !

And by the way - thank you for all those nice anvils in that episodes ;)

Actually I blame Amy Sherman-Palladino. She set the ball rolling on her way out the door. It was the big f-you to the fans, network and everyone else. It's like who cares about poor Luke lets just waste two years of Lorelai and Luke. Let's just have her sleep with Christopher and get married to the scumbag, all because he has money now.

I stopped watching the show after the first episode of this season. I now watch Friday Night Lights.

Look like I have written and said before there is no bigger fan of GG than me but please where Luke and Lor are concerned GET OVER IT! And if your true fans you like me will continue to watch and I hope the writers don't put the axe to LC. Geez, I was more upset over the Rory and Jess twist than this. Even now I get frustrated over that turn and when Jess came back to inspire Rory to return to school that one episode I had hope that it would have been more. But I am over that now, but just in case Heroes doesn't workout keep Jess in mind. Hey why knock Chris. He did not jut comeback this episode he is there now for Rory and little by little he is growing. Get over it, this is what real people do when we make mistakes we try our hardest to correct those that hurt the ones we love. Chris did hurt Lor but so did Luke or did you block that out of your minds. Remember her crying and pleading for him to make a choice and remember he did. He did not choose her. That was damage too. No real man sit around for all his life for that one and whene the time comes flakes out. That is sad and to me disgusting. I had hoped that he would swoop Lor up and elope with her. I waited and waited and waied and she walked away, I hated it to the bone but I knew she made the right choice. Love doesn't move becuase of circumstance, it moves inspite of them. Loved Luke but he didn't get that. Every guy should get that. Chris did and he got Lor. Beautiful by any standard!

I nearly cried when I read what is going to happen...the JJs had to wait so long to see Luke and Lore finally come together and now?
LC getting married is the worst nightmare for every JJ.

I can't believe it. I just can't. you destroyed everything with this episode. The 'I never really loved anyone until luke' speech in partings. the god damn 2 years LL relationship. you took everything from us. It's so painful. byebye GG. walk this way without me. you just killed everything with this episode. this is not the show I fell in love with. Thats destroying characters and the time we walked the way with them. this is cruel. I'll go. this was too much. kill the show! don't watch the episode people. it's awful and disgusting. I have no words. Gotta go now. Don't exspect m to come back. nothing is authentic from now on. I hope Luke finds a new love. a woman he can trust. a woman who stays by his side. even in the bad times. I hope he finds luck. I would never ever tough lorelai again after that episode. I hate lorelai more than chris now. never thought this would happen. go luke! try to get rachel back!

Christopther is a character who wasn't there for the mother of his eldest daugther or his daughter for most of their lives. the fact that we're supposed to be leave that he's good enough to be lorelai's husband and stay with her and g for the rest of their lives shocks and angers me. luke is the one that is supposed to be with Lor and Chris will have to relize this as will the writers.

oh god, just cancel the goddamn show, i cant take it anymore! it has become the most unwatchable show (take it from what most people have been posting on here), lorlei (the idiot) has jumped into something so fast with chris (the faggit), just please SHOOT the writers and do most of us a favor why dont ya...dang

DIE CHRIS!!!
This show has went from horrible to unbarable to watch.

You want more viewers to watch CW then get DR to wake up and see what a huge mistake he's created!!

I used to watch GG episodes over and over agian and now i can barely watch them one time. This LC stoyline they are tryign to sell and force on us is rediculous. You just cant disreagard 10 years of LL history. I know cant. But having LC married to me, is like the worse possilbe thing that could ever occur and sadly its actually happening.

CHRIS + LORE + PARIS = I HATE IT!!!


idk like the fact the two are going to go to Paris (city of love) and getting married.. I'm pissed off. It's enough for me JJ that I have to see him with her every week.. but in paris.. pukeee... I wish I'd be over soon!

Lorelai/Chris + Paris + Terrible SL = About 2 million viewers and fans left. =)
I'm liking this show less and less. Not that anyone actually cares on The CW.

I think Lorelai and Luke need to get off their asses and get back together. Luke and Lor and made for each other. Lor and Chris are a thing of the past. They have a history and i get that but... Chris isn't the one we love.

Paris is a wonderful city and is worth the travel. I was so lucky to visit it last September and I posted on this blog from the Centre Pompidou library. Sorry, I know no one is interested, but that was so fun and cool.
About the marriage, it can't be legal (but I guess these writers don't care). In Europe you can't get married at the last moment. You need a stack of papers and documents.

Lorelai and Luke. Most. Romantic. City. Is Stars Hollow

7th heaven is a ridiculous show, just for rednecks
that voted bush.
also the worst GG of this season is completely another level.

one word: ridiculous.
LC are ridiculous, the whole relationship is ridiculous and the wedding is most ridiculous.
You know people hate this SL, so please stop it!! I can't stand it anymore...

Megan, relax. No one's attacking you personally. I'm just saying that you can't speak for all VM fans when you say no one's watching! Just because you and no one you know watches doesn't mean no one's watching at all. Everyone I know watches VM. But I don't know a soul that watches 7th. It sounds like you do, though, so I'll take your word for it. Maybe we'll have to agree to disagree.

Topic... the Gilmore fans are a bitter bunch.

Welcome the DARKEST day in GG history! (And hopefully lowest in ratings, cause DR has to know we're NOT liking this one bit!!!)

What more is there to say that the show is taking an even deeper fall into oblivion than it already had...

Wow. I'm so glad to find out I'm not the only one who can not fathom how this storyline came to be!!
Ok, "Luke, marry me right now because i can't wait". "No. It'll happen, but not right now" "ok, goodbye." fast forward....er, maybe not too forward....next week, "I'm in love with Chris".
BS

Lorelai + Christopher + Paris = another boring and painful episode full of crap?

"Tonight on an all new Gilmore Girls. In a single moment, lives will be changed forever. Lorelei asks Luke to marry her in The Proposal. Oh no, wait, this is Season 7. Correction. Chris asks Lorelei to marry him in The Proposal. C'mon people - like him!! The couple that has spanned seven seasons will finally tie the knot. The couple that has been there for each other through good times and bad, helped each other, especially with Rory, listened to one another, ate together, joked with one another, spent their days together.....Luke and Lorelei. Luke, the real man who always supported her and Lorelei, the woman who brightened his day. What? Oh, excuse me, correction. CHRIS and Lorelei. His schedule is free now, so the character is back. C'mon people - like him!! He's perfect for Lorelei. - He never answers back and he is just like her. C'mon people - like him!! Don't watch Dancing with the Stars tonight.. It's The Proposal!! Here on an all new Gilmore Girls, here on the new CW. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be bored senseless by the neverending speeches. Possibly Luke, April, Richard, Emily, Kirk, Patty, Lane, Zach, Jackson, Sookie, Michel, Paris, and Logan MAY also appear, but we can't promise anything. We can promise that Rory's two ditzy friends and Marty WILL appear. Thank goodness for that. C'mon people -like him!!"

people. it doens't matter what we think and tell them. those polls are so stupid. we won't change anything. they just ignore it. stop watching. then it's less painful. the show had lost it after the season 6 finale. it's not going to get better. they had their chance. they took the wrong path and now it's worse. just stop watching. take the season 5 finale as your REAL ending and stop watching. it's better this way. trust me. they decided to jump the shark. so don't follow them. this show is total crap now. so don't waste your time watching it. there are other shows on TV which aren't written that bad. i hope the ratings will kill it soon.

Oh another "Oh lets see what fans have to say and just ignore them" chat :) How lovely.

Two US citizens + a spontaneous wedding in France = hoke !

Check out some facts on the Embassy of France webpage what our lovely couple should have taken with them for their SPONTANEOUS wedding. Or even better read just that sentence:

The mayor can authorize the deputy mayor or a city councilor to perform the ceremony in the town in which one of the parties to be married has resided for at least 40 days preceding the marriage. These requirements can NOT be waived.

Required documents: Just one example: Proof of domicile (electricity bill, etc.)

Yeah because when I go on vacation I always take my electricity bill with me or my phone bill. Don't you ?! If a dope says to you "you're meant to be. marry me" you have to be prepared!

Boy what a huge mistake if you make this thing legal.

But put that aside for a sec - WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!! Not much I guess. That's a really nice way to say thank you for watching all those years. Amy already destroyed the show and Lorelai - demoted her to a LOR - but marrying her to that?!?! You're completely out of your mind. Lets see what the ratings are going to be like this week.

A good advice: Throw in more Luke. His storyline is the only thing I'm looking forward to right now. Just a bummer we don't see much of it because you have the Lor and Chris show going 24/7.

Maybe I will skip tonight's episode and celebrate the dark day with a cold beer. Next week is more worth it when Luke's finally back and calls for help.

Am I the only one who likes Lorelai and Chris together?! I would love to see a wedding ... finally!

After this horrible 6th season it was ok for the moment that LL broke up. But it really TOO much that Lorelai marry Christopher! What about her words in 6.22? Do you think fans doesn't remember that?

Now what? Divorce? Happy End for LC? I'm not watching the show since 7 years for havoing a LC-Happy End!!

Times over for Chris since Season 3!! Now most fans hates him ...

Bad bad bad!
I don't like the picture of Lorelai and Chris beeing together in the city of LOVE! That ist NO love! Lorelai loves Luke!

Since episode 3 my longest Gilmore Girls hiatus has started. I refuse to watch this crappy story line. Come on who really believes that Lorelai suddenly fell in love with Christopher. Oh I totally forgot he matured in the last years. That's the reason why he wnated to ship off his 4 years old daughter to Paris all on her own. And he's such a good daddy for Rory. Making up 20 years of absence in her life by spending money.
There is definitely no reason in the world that could make me believe in LC.
Lorelai get married. You're not person I used to know for the last 6 years.
Gilmore Girls was always my favourite show but now I canot stand to watch it. This is so sad. I thought that could never happen.

Please bring the real Gilmore Girls back.
Right now there's nothing left than the LC stroy line. Every scen with Lorelai is about Chrsitopher. You never get a chance to breathe.

well, lorelai if you say yes to his proposal you're more lost than i thought you are. honey, are you seriously gonna marry this jackass? geez, you lost your brain woman.
and as for marrying in Paris, i don't think that foreigns can marry there only after a couple days of staying, so maybe their marriage will not be legal.

Lorelai + Christopher + Paris = DISGUSTING!

It's depressing me. It's more than wrong. First thing Lorelai tells this shrink that the only person she ever loved is Luke and then she starts a relationship with the man who used her when she was miserable? Hello? Did she leave her brain on that shrinks back set? And now she's going to marry that stupid bastard? EW!!! There is no reason for me to watch this bullshit! Oh no! This is so far away from real life. You would never get over the love of your life this easy. So it's crap. I'm not buying it. And so I'll not watch. GG once was my favourite show. Now it's a pain in my back I have to get rid of. You destroyed it with this stupid storyline. Now you have to pay. The fans are running away. I'll follow them. No reason left to stay. It's wrong and just painful to watch. Besides that it's absolutely BORING!!!

hahahaha you think I'm going to make me throw up? To feel awful while watching this LC bull? hahaha no way. I'll of course NOT watch!

total crap!

First thing. This marriage Isn't legal. If they marry there and rosie makes it legal then its a huge movie mistake. You already made one with the fact that you wanted to tell us luke cant swim. BULL! Lorelai saw him swimming in the lake and he went snorkeling on that cruise with nicole.. plus he likes to fish. Luke of course can swim. and now you want us to buy that LC crap? do you think your audience has no brain left? knock knock? You honestly think this BS will bring some good ratings during the sweeps? Are you crazy?? you know which couple rocks and its not LC. Who wants that anyway? I know nobody. everyone is pissed and some arent watching anymore and I can understand that. its crap. total crap. and a waste of screentime. END IT!!! cut chris off in 710 and your audience may come back. If they're still together, dont exspect people to turn on the TV after the hiatus. Noone is this stupid to ruin an evening by watching GG with LC on screen. I'm not watching. and I wont until Chris disappears. Episode 701 and 702 were good. They were very good episodes. The rest was boring. I think GG was never this boring in its entire history. I cant stand this babbling Lorelai and dumb smirking chris. I miss the people who made this show. EMILY, LORELAI, RORY and of course LUKE.

it's total crap. you destroy a once authentic show. Lorelai doens't love him and now she's going to marry that bastard? hello? watch your crap alone. I'm done with this show.

This here is so stupid. You keep asking the fans about what we think and what we want. You asked about Chris after the first epi, we told you we don't want him, what happened? Lorelai dates him.You wanted our opinion on this relationship, we told you we don't like it and want Chris gone. What happens? they are getting married. I mean what is this here? Let the fans vote and then do the opposite? Are you lying in your writers office laughing so hard you can't breath because you once again fooled the fans?
I hate the whole Chris sl because it is unbelieveable and wrong. Lorelai loves Luke.
Now she isn't even the same woman anymore, she acts like her 16 year old alter-ego, her babbling is annoying, she acts immature and childish, all the time and it has completely lost the cuteness-factor.
This seems like the parody of the the GG we knew and this Paris thing is so cheesy, that it's going to be another GG parody episode.
But why do I even post here? It's not like this is changing anything!

This Season is a big Bullshit. I hope Rosie know what he do.
Give Lorelai her Nature back

Lorlei please say no to the proposal..PLEASE, and writers you have made gilmore girls UNWATCHABLE like crazy cat lady said. i swear to god if lorlei says yes i will officially stop watching this dumbass show...seriously. veronica mars is way better then this and i dont even get it! come on!

I just want to extend my CONGRATULATIONS to the writers and staff of GG for effectively making the show unwatchable. Thank you for making Nov. 14 officially the DARK DAY of the fans as we mourn the death of our beloved show.

Pillow Pants and Rayanne, to take your statements right back at you, 7th Heaven still generates more interest than most of the shows on this network and thats after brutal treatment over the last few months (6 month long cancellation, last minute renewal, 1st night change in 10 years). So for ANYONE to call the show a success by accident is out of the loop. The Nielsens are not the best sample for ratings but they work. I know PLENTY about how they work and I read them every day. Someone just seems to be in denial about how the Nielsen's end up treating Veronica Mars. And may I use the word ACCIDENTALLY there, or not? It seemed to be used as an attack to me...not sure.

I viewed the coments made by everyone before me and I must say as a fan of the show and a male (if that matters) I was also disappointed at the Luke and Lor turn. But please as a guy, Luke had his chance. I hated how the show took Rory's virginity which was so inspiring and shredded it in one season. That I thought was cheesy and not called for. But as for Luke this is real life. If he wanted her he would fight for her and would'nt allow a new found kid to spoil that, especially with someone who has a child also. I mean she would understand. Chris wanted Lor he needs her and he would give all to have her. Which female doesn't want an equally balanced relationship. Hey Chris made up for his mistakes and he looks like a guy I want to be. This should have been live chat. Luke, well he just turned into the guy who watches life pass by which he always has done from since the shows inception, trust me I know. Lor made the best choice get over it!

I hate Chris and Lorelai together. I think they're moving too fast and shouldn't get married. That's all I have to say about that.

As Bri says "This season is pretty week & i hate chris with all my heart" i soo agree, i mean if you take a look last season u'd see luke and lorlei together so cute but chris and lorlei? uh uh please someone break them up.

Quote:we know that something major and romantic has to be on the agenda

Romantic ??? We are meant to be. Marry me. Oh yeah very romantic. You're it for me. Man this guy really knows how to use words. This is unbelievable. The guy is too lazy to call her by her whole name or maybe he just can't remember what comes after Lor. So what should we expect from this "wedding" ? Nothing if you ask me. An experiement to fail. Thanks for wasting 9 episodes if it's the last season.

Hopefully Rosie did his homework and checked some facts about US citizens marrying in France especially if it's spontanous. I know it's TV and who cares about reality but this thing is so freaking illegal even Chris couldn't buy his way out of this one.
The season started promising because I really liked the first two episodes but whatever went wrong with the writers since that I hope they can find their way back.
Everything after episode 2 was mostly boring, sickening and a waste of this season.
The whole Lor/Chris "relationship" is just beyond words and tomorrow will be my second dark day this year concerning the show. Yeah sure Lor loves him, is happy with him - who're kidding with that crap ? He changed and became a better man, father and now husband ? Excuse me but I'm not buying it and I'm pretty sure he's going to show his real face once Lorelai is talking to Luke again.
Luke and his storyline is the only thing I'm looking forward to but I kind of doubt he's even in the episode tomorrow night. Scott Patterson is amazing this season and it's a shame we didn't see as often as we should be.
People complain about the Luke/Lorelai fans that they're only concentrated on LL but it's the Gilmore Girls - what do you people call what they try to stuff down our throats now ? It's the Lor and Chris show. Where is Rory or better what's her storyline ? She at least had a decent story during the LL relationship in season 5 and 6 - what does she have now ? Most of the screentime is dedicated to Lor and Chris. Ratings are going down - doesn't that tip you off a bit ? No one wants to see them together. Ship Chris to Fiji already. Give Lor her brain back and make her a whole LorELAI again.

Chris and lorelai elope...can you say the second shortest marriage in history(the first being ross and rachel's)

this is beyond cheesy and predicatable...its just plain boring...i just hope lorelai stops acting like she's overdosing on speed.

What I don't understand is how this show became all about Lorelai's romantic life. And how a woman who left her parents home at 16 with a baby to build a life on her own suddenly became this weak ghost that only works with a man at her side. And I really don't care if she chooses Luke or Christopher. It would be the same crap if the writers don't bring back that shining independent woman whe loved for several seasons.

And why we still didn't have a scene with Rory and Richard at Yale? What's the point of she being one of his studants if we don't get a chance to see them together?

And, finally, will the troubador ever come back to Stars Hollow?

I'm only watching on the off chance we get some Luke, April and Lane, maybe Rory will be fun also, I can do without the C&L Paris trip and the show going down this road, Lorelai would have been better hanging on to Luke's bumper than thing Chris' Volvo on this trip!

ok, so i think lor and luke were meant to be, but the whole thing with April messed things up with them, so they just needed to move on from that and get married cuz they ARE SO MEANT TO BE! it is so bad that now chris is gonna propose after only dating lor for like, a few episodes and he has always left lor.and thats not cool. I'm not watching tomorrow night.

...

Okay, I love this show, but this season has been pretty weak. I loved lor and luke. They were ment to be. But Lor and Chris...I hate chris with all my heart, I swear. Not to be mean. Yea sure we should be happy because Rory can finally know her dad, but if you go and watch the 5th season of GG, Luke and lor were so cute together.

From last weeks preview of tomorrows episode it might go bad....by the way lor looked on her face when Chris said something. And I want it to go so bad. I hate her with Chris.

There is absolutely no way I will watch tomorrow night. Every episode I've watched so far has been incredibly disapointing with the way Lorelai is made to look and with the general direction of the show (and hardly any Luke scenes). Watching Lorelai marry C would probably make it where I can't even watch the show ever again.

As Luke would say- "Oh Jeez!!" This Paris elopement is proof that Chris is the rebound man. This LC SL honestly makes me sick. Arrgggg. *disgruntled face*
I'm not watching this tommorrow either. This episode is going to suck with or without my viewing.

Megan - to take a line of one of the greatest movies of all time, "Tommy Boy" - did you eat a lot of paint chips when you were a kid? No one gives a crap about 7th. I truly believe the show gets decent ratings by accident. If you knew what I knew about the Nielsens, you wouldn't think such a statement is a reach.

Anyway, I'm going to stop being mean now.

Re: Chris and Lor - uh, it's obvious what's going to happen. Bleh, makes me sooo mad! Please let there be some twist regarding it! PLEASSSSSSSE!

Megan, just because you don't watch Veronica Mars doesn't mean there aren't people interested in the CW Source's posts. I for one would be very disappointed if they stopped posting about VM. And they do post stuff about 7th Heaven, just not as regularly. There is a post about Ruthie's return from last week. Why don't you go whine over there?

This season of GG makes me sick...honestly. I'm more interested in talking about Reverend Camden's health crisis, and Ruthie's return to the show last night than about the horrible turn Stars Hollow is taking.

Why won't the CW Source post about 7th Heaven on Monday mornings, yet they do it with the other shows? I'm hoping the fact that 7th Heaven was one of the top 4 most watched shows last week on the network must imply that no one's watching. And speaking of shows no one's watching, I'll bet $100 that there will be a post on Veronica Mars come Wednesday morning! Go figure...
