This is it for the Gilmore Girls. I don’t have anything particularly eloquent to say, except that it was one of my favorite shows for a very long time, and I’ll miss the sheer volume of words said in any single episode. It’s a show that didn’t always go for the easy stories, and that’s pretty great. And there was Lauren Graham who is just fantastic in every way. So… au revoir, Stars Hollow.

Veronica Mars limps toward its possible series finale (fingers crossed; we find out Thursday) tonight as well. I miss the Lily Kane murder. Heck, I miss the bus crash. I even miss — a tiny bit — the Hearst rapist. But even with all that missing, I think we can agree that Paul Rudd last week was one of the greatest guest stars on a TV show ever.

A new House tonight, too, featuring an “obnoxious 16-year-old chess prodigy.” That sounds extremely promising.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming: Oooh, a show on WE called The Secret Lives of Women, all about crazy moms and sex addicts and stuff. Tonight’s episode is about Munchausen syndrome, a cool name for a sad syndrome.

Lost and Ugly Betty are great fun, so I can’t in all honesty say that I dislike ABC — I just find their Lascivious Middle-Aged Mom house style a little off-putting. But maybe I’m still bitter that they objectified Piz.

Here’s their new schedule! Seven dramas and four comedies. Good lord, that’s a lot of new stuff.

First, the things we can automatically dismiss: We already know that Private Practice blows. Cashmere Mafia is a complicated Candace Bushnell rip-off, and therefore ignorable as well. Big Shots, even though it stars TiFaux Madness Favorite Michael Vartan, has a gag-inducing premise, but Vartan just may be cute enough to pull it off — we’ll see. Eli Stone is about a lawyer who has visions because of a tumor in his brain. Um, correct me if I’m wrong, but that totally happened to Billy on one of the later seasons of Ally McBeal, did it not? Cavemen, the Geico Cavemen atrocity, sounds terrifying. And finally Women’s Murder Club and Sam I Am: Bleh. No opinion.

On the other hand, Dirty Sexy Money not only has a very descriptive title, it also stars Peter Krause and could be not bad. Pushing Daisies — I like the unrequited love aspect, and even though it has a narrator, the narrator is Jim Dale, official Harry Potter-speaker! Miss/Guided — terrible, terrible title, but stars Judy Greer, and involves re-living high school trauma, which makes it a must-see for me.

So what do you think?

Should I get my arms all tatted up? Just like Dashboard Confessional.
