I definitely think that's a feeling a lot of fans shared. They expected more of Rory and were let down that she was still struggling. I was closer to Rory's age (only a few years younger) but I think getting past it definitely helped me understand her, as did thoughts from people making valid points about progress not always being linear.
Nice! Sometimes things grow on you with time. Her struggling does make sense, but parts of it really felt like ASP was just using this to create her version of s7 and it doesn't really work after ten years, like Luke and Lorelai's communication issues, and that weird musical which took up time that could've been used better. I would've liked to see some other characters too! Someone said it would've been better suited as 8 eps/45 mins each rather than 4/90 which I could see but more to flesh things out would've been nice too.
