At the end of Season 5, Rory dropped out of Yale and moved into Emily and Richard's poolhouse -- decisions that broke Lorelai's heart. That's handy, because one half of that heart can be deliriously happy with the big new step in her love affair with Luke. Meanwhile, the other half grieves, and it seems everyone in town wants mother and daughter to reunite. But it may take an unexpected out-of-towner to make it happen. Of course, there's much more: Lane gets a surprise that leaves her reeling with joy. Luke gets a surprise that may send the Luke-and-Lorelai relationship reeling. What's no surprise is the snappy, wish-I'd-said-that Gilmore dialogue, knowing humor and insightful storytelling fans adore. Season 6 starts now! | | | Product Details: | | | Actors:

 Gilmore Review!Jul 30, 2010
Witty as always and fun fun fun for people who enjoy and can follow all the insides, references, and side jokes. Highly enjoyable series!
Shipping was great, packaging was great, no surprises, and overall report: 2 whoots for amazon
 Very poorly put together season!!!Jul 07, 2010
Why in the world does season 6 lack English subtitles??? Just does not make sense to me how they were left off season 6 and included in 1-5 and 7??? Warner Brothers should be ashamed. I would love to get some activist group for disabled people to go after them. I am sure there are viewers that require English subtitles in order to enjoy this wonderful series. So I guess they will just have to miss out on an entire season.
Then besides the English subtitle issue, I too do not like the new packaging where it has 3 pages and one disc on each page is buried under the other, so you have to remove one to get to the other - very bad design and I can not imagine it was any cheaper to manufacture.
Still I could not give this 1-star because I love the series so much. The series is 5-star all the way but the packaging and lack of English subtitles makes me want to give this product 1-star.
great series!Jun 27, 2010
A great series , i got it as a gift for my sister and she enjoyed a lot.
Gilmore Girls 6th SeasonApr 05, 2010
Set is in good condition. There are some scratches on certain dvds, making some of the episodes jumpy.
The sad spectacle of watching a good show die slowlyFeb 22, 2010
I never watched this show when it was on the air. The only episode I ever saw was the final episode and it seemed ok but no big deal. I didn't know the characters and I didn't really find the "Previously On" section terribly compelling. Everything seemed very contrived. Still, these were likeable characters in a decent enough show. I thought no more of it until a few months ago when I was searching for things to watch at my library, grabbed an early copy and got hooked.
So maybe watching this season when the first few seasons are so fresh in my mind taints my enjoyment. During the fourth season there was a bit of dialogue between Rory and Paris where Rory said something to the effect of just trying to drive Paris crazy and Paris, in a display of self-knowledge, says "oh like that's hard." I laughed but I also noticed that the Paris-Rory tensions which had so dominated the first couple of seasons had eased up. The writers were comfortable with the characters and they didn't feel the need for histrionics. Sure, Rory was still trying to choose between the guy from Supernatural: The Complete Fourth Season (not the most exciting guy but a good stable guy who really grows on you over time with consistancy) and the guy from Heroes - Season One (comes off really cool at first but over time you realize that there's no much there - ok maybe I'm talking about the shows that they ended up on but their characters did confirm to those types) but it was still a fine show. I knew that it was the beginning of the end. The writers had developed the characters as much as they were ever going to develop them and it was all downhill from there.
Jump ahead to season six and the log roll of suck has come back to haunt everyone. You know how it is when you are about to break up with a girlfriend of 2-3 years. You've changed and she's changed and you just aren't the two people who fell in love but you still see glimmers of what once was. So you spend a lot of time wondering if it's you or her and it's just sad. That's the best way to describe watching the sixth season. But there are so many more things wrong with it.
For one thing, the writers have gone from being comfortable with the characters to being bored with the characters. Luke is grumpy. Lorelai is smart but angsty. Rory talks like the kid in Problem Child. Luke is grumpy. Kirk is weird. Michel is fashionably catty and gets most of the great lines. Paris is a crazy A-type personality. Taylor is eccentric and controlling (without much explanation as to why he's back to being mayor). Sookie and Parker are adorable. Every character has been set in stone.
The one exception is Laine and Mrs. Kim who actually have a great storyline where they are relating as an adult mother and daughter instead of the tyrannical mother and the daughter who hides things in the first few seasons. They are a delight and the sole reason why I'm giving this review a 2nd star.
In the absence of real character development there's a lot of contrived plotlines. The season begins with Rory "crushed" because Logan's dad said that she doesn't have it. So she retreats to her grandparent's guest house. Nothing in Rory's character up until that episode suggests that she would let the opinion of one person crush her dreams. And as she moves through the season she shows all the competancy we've expected from her since she is the fantasy "perfect daughter". Lorelai and Luke get engaged because Lorelai is sulking. Then it gets delayed and delayed and Lorelai sulks some more. Suddenly the funny and together woman of the previous five seasons is a whiny sulking jerk.
And to keep with the tradition of a dying show whose writers don't have anything interesting for the characters, not one but TWO cousin olivers are introduced. The first is a dog for Lorelai who is supposed to be a high strung crazy nervous yappy dog according to the script. Unfortunately, the dog is laconic to the point of being bored. It's like everyone is pointing at the dog going "look he's so crazy' and he falls asleep. That dog is a metaphor for the whole season. Then there's Luke's long lost daughter who shows up in the middle in order to cause more tensions between Luke and Lorelai. She's boring. The storyline is boring.
Even worse, the rapid fire dialogue full of cultural references to movies and old books and cool television shows has been replaced by stupid references. Jesse and Rory will no longer flirt over their mutual appreciation of Howl and Other Poems (City Lights Pocket Poets Series). Jesse does show up but he's preachy and only in the show to make Logan look like a jerk. Of course, Logan is already a jerk so why do we need to be reminded that Rory is the perfect example of Smart Women/Foolish Choices: Finding the Right Men Avoiding the Wrong Ones (Signet)? The references to trashy 80s movies have ceased. Instead, the references are either non-existent or they are about reality shows and movies that were just out in the past year. One suspects that there was a test audience that sat around going "Proust? Jack Kerouac? Hardbodies? We don't get it. Can't you make references to things that stupid people like? We'd watch more if you did." And then someone listened to them.
Finally, there was the episode where Jackson and Sookie find out that someone has planted marijuana in Jackson's garden and they spend the entire episode trying to get rid of the pot. As much as I hate the term "jumping the shark", the B storyline fits the bill. The Gilmore Girls is supposed to be droll and Oscar Wilde witty. Whacky hijinks are the staple of bad sitcoms. The fact that the show ends with Lorelai frowning doesn't mitigate the whacky hijink quotient. It just adds to the overall joylessness of the proceedings.
Sadly, I know I'm going to watch the seventh season just because I was hooked, but if you can avoid watching this DVD or knowing that it exists, let yourself. Remember the show when it was good in the first four seasons and adequate in the fifth one.
