Everyone is buzzing with anticipation for the Gilmore Girls revival. A bunch of people are discussing what they think will happen. My contribution to the conversation is a list of 5 things that I absolutely do not want to happen in the four Netflix special episodes. While some of these may be controversial (by which I mean number 1), I know that there will be some people out there who agree with me!

1. Rory/Jess

Or Rory/Logan. Or Rory/Dean, for that matter (despite being a Dean girl myself). I don't want Rory to end up with any of her ex's. I want her to find someone new who really makes her happy, unlike the boys from her past. I'm fine with her re-exploring relationships with them, and even being on friendly terms, but I'll be disappointed if Rory ends up with one of the boys from her past. (Especially if it's Jess she ends up with.)

2. Christopher Getting In The Way

I feel like this one should have a trademark next to it. It's like it's his "thing." While there is the rare occasion that he doesn't have ulterior motives and genuinely wants to be a better father to Rory. There are, however, four times as many instances where he inserts himself into the Gilmore girls' lives just to stir up drama. *cough*The entirety of season 7*cough*. It's an overused and tired plot from the original series that I am praying doesn't reappear in the Netflix specials.

3. Richard's Funeral

Pray with me that, when the series picks up, Richard's funeral has already happened. I know it's supposed to be a major plot, and I know it's important to address, but I do not want to hysterically cry over Edward Herrmann. I've only just settled with the fact that it's going to be weird without him, please don't make us suffer through a funeral.

4. Hep Alien Breaking Up

Whether it's on screen or before the series picks up, I do not want this to happen. Hep Alien was a fun and weird little band that played your average garage rock songs and were generally wonderful. Plus, they were so determined to make the band work. I would hate to see that all go away because they grew out of it, or whatever the reason may be.

5. A Lack Of Snark... From Anyone

While the trailers imply that Lorelai and Rory most certainly haven't lost their snark, I will be disappointed if Paris isn't biting people's heads off. The sarcastic banter that Luke, Jess, Logan, Lane, and so many other characters were defined by in the original series was a huge part of what made the show so great. The smart witty snark from Gilmore Girls never failed to impress me and if anyone doesn't have the same bite they used to, I'll be disappointed.
