Gilmore Girls messiest split comes down to communication… or lack thereof.
and others you cant help but cringe through, if you dont skip them altogether.
There were, indeed, some specifics to work out: How involved would they be?
Would April affect their future plans?
What about her mom, Anna, who might not be happy with any arrangement?
Nearly two decades and countless rewatches later, their breakup still doesnt make sense.
So, what went wrong?
Youre lucky Im back in your life, because clearly you were lost without me, Lorelai teases.
I mean, its a miracle youre even still alive… right?
You bet, Luke replies, suddenly serious.
(Its adorable.)
But at the end of Season 6, Luke is the one dealing with family drama.
Now,hes suddenly incapable of planning for the future through uncertain times?
Sherman-Palladino and her husband-slash-collaborator, Daniel Palladino, left the show before Season 7 due tocontract differenceswith Warner Bros.
Even though they did begin Luke and Lorelais breakup, they werent around to resolve that conflict.
Look, thats something that Ive got to deal with, man, Sherman-Palladino toldTV Guidein 2006.
Not going to happen.
Fortunately, Luke and Lorelai did ultimately reunite in the series finale after spending the entire final season apart.
Just a decade late, of course!
