Most Memorable Scene: Lorelai Gilmore Sensing Snow

I can smell when it's going to rain but unlike Lorelai Gilmore I can't smell when it's going to snow. I love that Lorelai has this uncanny ability to know when it's going to snow. It's pretty spectacular that this is one of her character traits. I have to agree, it does feel magical watching the snow fall. The next time it snows, I'll take the time to enjoy it.

Quote: Lorelai Gilmore, Kirk Gleason and Luke Danes

Lorelai: What are you doing, Kirk?

Kirk: Did you just eat a 3 musketeers?

Lorelai: No.

Kirk: You're sure? You really smell like nougat.

Luke: Stop sniffing my fiancee.

Kirk: I can't help it. My senses are much more finely tuned these days.

Lorelai: What is the scary man talking about?

Luke: He's on a juice fast.

Lorelai: Why?

Kirk: Just wanted to clean out the pipes, refocus the arteries. I want to get the healthy glow of someone who consistently goes to the gym...without having to go to the gym, of course.

Lorelai: Of course. You look positively radiant.

~ Gilmore Girls season 6 episode 16: Bridesmaids Revisited

Kirk was very annoying in this scene especially in its entirety because he continued to bother Lorelai. When she was ordering breakfast at Luke's Diner, he kept talking about food. Clearly, he was hungry and he should have ordered something to eat which is what Lorelai told him to do. But no he would rather continue with the juice fast when he was obviously hungry.

Why was Luke Danes out of character for the sixth season of Gilmore Girls?

Why was Luke Danes written out of character for Gilmore Girls' sixth season? It was as if, the writers had ran out of ideas for Lorelai Gilmore and Luke's relationship and wanted to figure out a way to get Lorelai with her former high school boyfriend (and her daughter Rory's father) Christopher Hayden. In order to do that, the writers had to create forced drama between Luke and Lorelai along with Luke being written out of character.

Luke's change started in the sixth season episode "The Prodigal Daughter Returns" where the writers had Luke make a big deal of telling Lorelai they needed to be honest with each other. However, to then later turn around and have Luke not tell Lorelai when he found out he was the father of 12 years old April Nardini. April had stopped by Luke's diner to see if she could use a hair sample from him for a science project. Luke didn't know that the project was to determine whether or not he was her father. He was certainly surprised when he saw her project.
