CW, WB mother-daughter drama canned after seven seasons; studio unable to extend actresses' contracts.

Network television will lose a fair amount of rapid-fire pop-culture references this month, as CW and Warner Bros. TV have decided to end the run of Gilmore Girls after seven seasons. The two companies announced the news on the Gilmore Girls Web site, saying the final episode of the show will air in less than two weeks on May 15.

"Announcing the final season of Gilmore Girls is truly a sad moment for everyone at The CW and Warner Bros. Television," reads the statement. "This series helped define a network and created a fantastic, storybook world featuring some of television's most memorable, lovable characters."

The statement continues, "We would also like to thank the critics and Gilmore fans for their passionate support and promise to give this series the send off it deserves."

The show's future has been in question for some time now, with the two leading actresses, Lauren Graham (Lorelai Gilmore) and Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore), unsure they would return for an eighth season. The Los Angeles Times cites sources saying the studios were unable to cement a new deal with the pair.

The latest season has undergone a few behind-the-scenes changes as well. Series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and husband/collaborator Daniel Palladino left after the sixth season when a contract could not be reached with Warner Bros. David Rosenthal took over producing duties for the current season.

The CW will miss the show, as it was one of its more successful programs, both in terms of ratings and viewer fanaticism.

You mean that old fart who's like 70 and still plays songs from 1967 with a straight face?

Wait, Rory is a prissy princess and a spoiled brat, but Lorelei has porn potential (see Bad Santa).

Here's the poll:

Pink Floyd reform!

1. I don't give a rat's ass
2. I don't give a leapin’ lizard's ass
3. My grandpa is a huge fan
4. Are they G?
5. Are they Nu Rave?
6. Weren't they dead?
7. Never been the same since Brian Jones left

Is a rat's ass a step up or a step down from a lizard's ass? :?
