Gilmore Girls Fans Rejoice

The zombified version of this once-great show has been put out of its (and our) misery by the CW, according to today's Hollywood Reporter.

Sources said that an offer had been put on the table for the show's two stars -- Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel -- to continue the series, but an agreement could not be reached.

According to rumor, Scott Patterson and Melissa McCarthy would not have returned. Bledel had been amenable to returning, but only in a recurring capacity, which would've put everything on Lauren Graham's shoulders in a very Laverne & Shirley minus Shirley (and Lenny, and Squiggey, and Carmine) sort of way.

Clearly, she made the right choice, and I eagerly anticipate her next move. Not so hot on Bledel--Never have been. She's fine--I loved Rory--but Graham, IMO, is a major talent.
