I think I’ve finally pinpointed why I dislike the later seasons of Gilmore Girls (and by this I mean after season 3/4). I just hate how much it resembles a soap opera. All of the ‘dramatic’ scenes and plot lines are overplayed and just don’t seem realistic anymore. Before the show was charming and semi-relatable but, in the later seasons, it just feels like the writing was out of touch. The whole Luke’s secret daughter plot line really adds to this, too. All the characters started acting strange just for the dramatic effect, or at least that’s what it felt like. Maybe this is just me, but the later seasons just feel…off.
