Gilmore Girls To End This Month

The CW Network and Warner Brothers have announced today that Gilmore Girls will end with tihs season’s final episode, scheduled to air May 15. Rory Gilmore graduates from Yale next week, with her future remaining in doubt. Reportedly the final episode will show Rory finally meeting her long-time idol, Christiiane Aranpour. AP quotes Lauren Graham from an interview earlier in the year as to her thoughts on how the show should end (which might be relevant to how this week’s episode ended with Logan asking Loelei for permission to marry Rory):

As production on the show got under way last fall, its future then uncertain, Graham speculated about the final chapter.

“I care very much how the story ends,” Graham said told the AP. “… It would be my worst nightmare if we end the show with a wedding. To me, the premise of the show was, `What if your parent was your best friend?'”

“That’s the thing you leave people with, the strength of this family and this relationship,” she said.

    So yeah, it ends with Loralie drinking a cuppa joe and chatting up Luke in the diner while Rory flys off to parts unknown with Christiiane Aranpour, or grad school. Stars Hollow will be getting ready for another festival, maybe HayMaze II. ?! Kurt will be selling tickets, or Christmas wrapping paper. All fine with me.

    In other words, agree with Lauren. GG doesn’t need no stinkin’ wedding finale. @;-)
