This and That
Yesterday evening after working way too long I watched Gilmore Girls followed by Veronica Mars. I couldn’t help but wonder about Rory and Lane’s friendship. It was as far as I’ve followed the first time during Lane’s pregnancy that Rory spent time with her. At least that’s what the producers made us think. I considered it phoney when Rory became all sentimental during the party because the way I see it the two friends have shared no time or interest in each other for the last year except maybe when Rory attended Lane’s wedding. And Rory is so focused on Logan and her career that she doesn’t notice anything else right now anyway.
Lorelai was like the perfect mother and friend to both her daughter and to Lane. She’s obviously keeping herself busy and distracted in order to cope with the Christopher break-up. But I guess they will not keep us waiting for the next L&L storyline for long.
It was appreciated that the whole town was involved in Lane’s baby shower and therefore we had some entertaining moments with Kirk, Loulou, Miss Patty and co. I’m too tired (allergy pills) to recap everything that I liked or that bored me. I liked AmyD’s recap since it pretty much reflects my opinion on “Would you be my Lorelai Gilmore”
To a very brilliant Veronica Mars, I so suspected that Tim Foyle was Dean O’Dell’s murderer and I normally suspect everyone but the murderer so I was happy to see Landry’s assistant go to jail in the end and proud that I for once lay right with my suspicions. From the beginning of this season Tim behaved like he was hiding something and it was just a matter of time until he was accused of some sort of crime. And wasn’t Veronica brilliant during class when she counted one and one together and suddenly realized who the real killer was and kept asking smart questions and it was totally clear where she was heading.
Unfortunately Landry can’t be spoken free of all charges since he “accidentally” killed Mindy Odell on the yacht she bought from her husband’s live insurance money. I am glad that they didn’t drag this mystery on for so long. I just read Jon Lachonis’ post on this episode and he says it became pretty clear who was guilty and who wasn’t so maybe I wasn’t that smart after all…. but I swear I had this “aha! he’s the killer” moment which I haven’t had before on VM so I’m sufficiently satisfied
Oh and I was relieved that Parker at least made an attempt not to date Logan and stop hanging out with him because the last thing I remembered was that Parker and Veronica were friends and at least in my circle of friends we don’t date our girl friend’s very recent ex-bfs.
I totally felt for Veronica when Logan asked her whether he could go out with Parker. Can’t he give our girl a break for a while and for once maybe stay on his own and study for a change?? Well, I guess we will see what happens soon.
I have been reading all about the gossip this week about Heigl not renewing her contract and then about the studio stating that everythings fine and that Heigl will remain a part of the cast and then the news that the cast members have been resenting and avoiding Kate Walsh ever since it was decided that she get her own spinoff. What is it with my favorite show and all the recent negative gossip. It is starting to become annoying. Then I read this post on www.tvaddict.com and it practically put my thoughts into words:
Quote “ Can we all agree that we’re tired of the behind-the-scenes gossip from the set of GREY’S ANATOMY? This TV Addict says forget about Katherine Heigl and the entire cast. The only woman who deserves a raise (and a medal of honor) is showrunner and GREY’S creator Shonda Rhimes. How she manages to keep all these egomaniac actors in check while at the same time turning out twenty-two fantastic episodes is a remarkable feet in itself. ” unquote
By the way I love and totally appreciate that tvaddict.com has the “Farewell O.C. banner on the first page.
It’s Thursday in the meantime and no O.C 
Have to sleep now- more tomorrow…
