At the time they filmed it, they didn't know it was going to be
cancelled -- Ryan Hunter was intended to be Joan's adversary for
season 3. They knew that they were kinda iffy on renewal, so this was
one of the changes that they agreed to in hopes of getting an s3. If
they'd known they were going to get cancelled before they filmed it,
they would almost certainly have come up with a far more conclusive
ending.

LORELAI: In the movie, only boy hobbits travel to Mount
Doom, but that's only because the girls went to do something
even more dangerous.
GIRL: What?
LORELAI: Have you ever heard of a Brazilian Bikini Wax?

AFAIK, no alternate ending was shot -- they went for broke with a
cliffhanger. IMO, they might have been hoping/figuring that
Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants would have been enough of a hit to
guarantee renewal and just bet wrong.

As far as I know.

Yes, and IMHO = in my humble opinion, which I would never use because my
opinions aren't humble ... ;-)

cliffhanger = ????????
Last episode of a series which includes at least one open storyline which
will be continued in the next season.
E.g. main character is shot at and you don't really know if he's dead. Then
you've got to wait until next season to know.
Or, as Buffy season 6, Buffy dies, season ends, and you wonder how the
series will continue.

thanxs ! (im not english...)
Obviously ... they spell it thanx or thanks. ;-)

I'm not English (or American) either.
Where are you from?

Ciao, Georg <><

"Thanx" is an informal (slang-ish) spelling of "thanks." It's fine
for the casual mood of Usenet.

That's what I said. Originally he wrote "thanxs".
I was just mocking around. ;-)

To supplement Georg's response, I'll add that the URL below is a
*great* page with practically every 'net abbreviation in existence:
