With the premiere of "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" just around the bend, I thought everyone needed a (more than) healthy dose of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, with a dash of Luke to spice up their day.
Now, if you are like me, you relate to the Gilmore girls more than pretty much any sitcom character you've ever watched. I aspire to be as sarcastic as Lorelai, as studious as Rory, and as regal as Emily.
That's how I start my mornings, anyway. Like Lorelai, I drink more coffee than I probably should.
Well, I think she stated it perfectly.
And we all know who supplied Lorelai with her coffee addiction...
I don't know about you, but I grew up in a small town, so the Stars Hollow life was pretty relatable. Everyone knows everyone, the small corner store closes earlier than they really should (I mean, we all want those late night cookies, right?). My town didn't have a diner, though. Or a corner store. So, maybe not that alike?
Rory in college was all of us, to be honest. I mean, how we want to be at least. Though this little gem right here pretty much sums up college life:
And, I mean, we all remember Chad Michael Murray as Tristan Dugray, right? And Jared Padalecki as Dean Forester (shoutout to my Supernatural fans that understand the irony in that now). But my favorite Rory-love-interest was Matt Czuchry as Logan Huntzberger. Who dropped this little nugget of wisdom on us:
But Logan also treated Rory the best, I believe. They were well-matched. He loved Rory for being herself, and he didn't try to change her. Yeah, they had their ups and downs, but no couple is perfect. Did anyone else cry when Rory turned down his marriage proposal?
I cried like a baby.
Well, that should get you through to the resurgence of Gilmore Girls. I smell a new era in the air. Oh, maybe it's just coffee...
And if that doesn't satisfy your Gilmore Girls addiction, they do have it on Netflix, and different channels on DirecTV show it constantly.
So, curl up with your fuzzy socks on, a cup of hot coffee in hand, and eagerly await the dawn of a new Gilmore Girls.
