I think it could have been done so much better. That's what happens when you muck up an episode with Kristin Cavallari's acting skills.<BR/><BR/>In terms of hooking the Gilmore viewers, I don't think the VM premiere does enough. I think there are several things that might confuse a new viewer, and as an old viewer, I was upset at the lack of exposition regarding the summer. I know they didn't want to go for too many flashbacks, but I still have tons of questions that I'd like answered, most importantly--how did the town react to Woody/ Cassidy/ Aaron's murder? I'm hoping that we might get some answers in future episodes, even if they're casual, throwaway lines.<BR/><BR/>One nitpick, don't know if it was yours or the SL--it's LILLY Kane, not LILY.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1159809158628579992006-10-02T13:12:00.000-04:002006-10-02T13:12:00.000-04:00Tomorrow is going to be great.

I understand the rationale behind the creation of such a premiere, though, so I didn't mind-- just pray it pays off.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, the way the characters become part of their new environment so effortlessly is a great feat. Shows like Gilmore Girls and Buffy more or less failed to do that, but Veronica pulls it off. Also, I loved the new characters. Way to go, Rob.dark tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13461345493748899275noreply@blogger.com
