Hey, kids, it's Korbi again, with some good Gilmore dish. Everyone's favorite show runner, Ms. Amy Sherman-Palladino, is here at the press tour promoting her new Fox comedy, The Return of Jezebel James (with Parker Posey and Lauren Ambrose). But of course, the obvious question—Any thoughts on the Gilmore series finale?—was imminent.

Her response? "Here's the deal: I didn't watch it. I think I just got very drunk that night, and he [husband and writing partner, Daniel Palladino] read in a corner, and then we went to bed."

Sherman-Palladino went on to say that she just couldn't bear to watch, because it wouldn't be her ending. And yes, she finally let the cat out of the bag on the famed line she had intended to wrap the series: "You're adopted."

She kids! She kids!

She's keepin' it a secret for now. Why? Because the possibility of a future Gilmore project (say, a TV movie or somethin' of the sort) is still alive. "I love all those people. Lauren [Graham]'s my pal...Yeah, we've talked about doing a little song and dance sometime down the road."
