Hi!!!! I haven't actually watch GG since, like, s2 or so, so I don't have anything to add except that it kills my soul just a little bit that they're making Luke-whom-I-ADORED unlikable. So, er, hi!
It "feels true" that Lorelai is completely passive and is totally willing to tolerate her partner treating her like crap for months?
Seriously, the part where they're window shopping and Luke's like 'you're not going anywhere near my daughter' I was literally flailing and shouting at the tv. And then Lorelai just accepts that?!?! What the hell!
I keep thinking that maybe they're trying to pit the Christopher/Lorelai dynamic versus Lorelai/Luke, but seriously making Luke a whiny ass is just....aggravating.
ARGH how do you go from the coolest and funniest wedding episode ever to this crap.
I don't normally actually flail at the tv, but when that was going on, there was hand waving and I was making all sorts of weird noises. And then Luke was all "but she'll like you better, because you're a cartoon!"
A CARTOON!?!?
I honestly didn't think it was possible to take two such well-developed characters and destroy them like that. Luke more than Lorelai, but as I said, I'm not willing to stick around for them to destroy Lorelai too.
I loved the Lane and Zach wedding. It was so funny! And I hadn't thought about it, but you're right - to go from that hilarity to Luke being such an ass .... ARGH!

I adored Luke too! He was so grumpy and cute ... and then they turn him yukky. It really is a little bit soul killing.
Don't start watching it again! Stay at season 2 with fond memories (I assume). After that, it's all bad. I just couldn't let go until now.
