So anybody else severely disappointed in the "Gilmore Girls" premiere? Every single second was predictable. Ness and I called something out in each scene, and lo, that thing happened. Behold:

Dala: The flashes are going to blind Kirk and he's going to crash Taylor's T-bird.
Ness: Right into the diner.
Kirk: ::gets blinded by lights and crashes Taylor's car into Luke's (This was still awesome to watch, btw).

Dala: Luke's going to blow up and freak out and run back to Lorelai.
Luke: ::blows up, freaks out and runs back to Lorelai.

Ness: That rocket doesn't really mean what she thinks it means.
Logan: ::does not ask his girlfriend to fly to London and celebrate their true love::

Lorelai: ::tells the story of how this shirt reminds her of Luke::
Ness: She's going to throw out everything in the house, isn't she?
Gilmore living room, next scene: ::is empty::

Luke: blahblahreadynowMarylandboatcakes
Dala: I know exactly what Lorelai's going to say.
Ness: That she slept with Christopher?
Lorelai: I slept with Christopher.
Dala:...we're been watching this show way too long.

Also, I don't know if it's the show's actual decline or I'm outgrowing it or whatever, but both Rory and Lorelai seemed so self-absorbed tonight. They generally are, but it's never bugged me like this before. And I felt the lack of Richard and Emily keenly (maybe they were in the beginning? I missed the first thirteen minutes). Also, I've still never warmed up to Logan, and Luke is/the writers are going to have to come a long, long way to make up for how he treated Lorelai/was written all last season. There were funny bits, like the racquetball, and Scott Patterson did a good job with his speech, but it wasn't enough for me.

I'm really bummed out over how much I don't care. Not even the fabulous Lauren Graham could make me care. I'm not going to stop watching it, because I've loved it too much for that and I will at least see it through to the end, but..it's sad.
