Gilmore Girls Seasons and Episodes

09/26/2006Season 7 - 22 episodes
The seventh and final season of Gilmore Girls, an American dramedy television series, began airing on September 26, 2006, on The CW. The season and series concluded on May 15, 2007, after 22 episodes. This was the first and only season to air on the CW, which was a merge of UPN and the show's previous home, The WB. The season aired Tuesday nights at 8/7c. This is the only season to not have Amy Sherman-Palladino or Daniel Palladino as a showrunner or a writer. The newly formed CW network claimed their departure was due to a salary dispute. Amy Sherman-Palladino later insisted that she and Daniel Palladino could not come to an agreement with CW because they needed a short series hiatus to rest, the hiring of more writers to relieve their work load, and an additional eighth season to finish the story lines properly. Because of this change, this season received mixed reviews from television critics and fans. On May 3, 2007, The CW announced that the show was cancelled, and that the finale, which was filmed in April, would air on May 15. Season seven served as the formal conclusion to the show until November 2016, when Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life aired on Netflix ()
With a colorful cast of characters, life in Stars Hollow is anything but dull. As the season unfolds, Lorelai's relationship with Luke may be over now that she has let Christopher, Rory's father, come between them again. Even so, Lorelai and Luke still have to coexist in tiny, close-knit Stars Hollow with the town's watchful eyes on them and their charged history. Meanwhile, Rory will attempt to keep her long-distance romance with Logan alive, even though communication has never been their strong suit, and London is far away. Rory now begins her senior year at Yale and continues as the editor of the Yale daily paper.
