[As usual, my comments in brackets follow questions I decided I needed
to mouth off about.]

Question: I just read that Amy Sherman-Palladino and her husband,
Daniel, are not returning for next season's Gilmore Girls. Please tell
me it's not true. My heart is breaking. She had a plan! — Megan

Ausiello: Relax. Breathe. Read. No decision has been made either way.
As I understand it, both sides — Team Palladino and Warner Bros. — are
still trying to hash out a deal that would bring them back next fall
for a seventh season. But I'd be lying if I told you there weren't
some really scary moments yesterday. The situation is extremely fluid,
but rest assured the moment I have something definitive to report — no
matter what the hour — I will post an update on The Ausiello Report. I
am on this story like Emily on the rocks.

[Rob here: Believe it or not, a breaking news article about the
Palladinos was posted to Entertainment Weekly's site early Tuesday
morning and almost immediately pulled thereafter, which suggests that
the WB/CW/XYZ/123 might be trying to throw some more money at them.
Still not a good sign about the Palladinos' decision. Personally, I
hope they're leaving, as that would IMO greatly improve the chances of
the show continuing at the end of the 7th season, what, with them
having a year to get Amy and Dan mostly out of their system and up and
running with setting the stages for post-Yale storylines. Although
I'd love to see Amy stay, at this point, I think she risks turning
into a hack like Brenda Hamptom if she stays even another year.]
