" Gilmore Girls" is a drama-filled TV show that revolves around a mother daughter relationship. Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter, Rory, move to a small town of Stars Hallow and their lives are surrounded by friends and loved ones that bring spectacle and obstacles. The majority of viewers became obsessed with this show and couldn’t help but be envious of the unique bond this duo shared. However, even the most concentrated fans may not have heard some of these facts and bloopers that the writer/actors overlooked when filming:

1. The infamous theme song, “Where You Lead” is sung by Carole King and her daughter Louise Goffin.

If you are a true "Gilmore Girls" fan then you would definitely have already known this, however, did you know that they actually starred Carole King in the TV show? She was the music store owner that sold Lane her drum set, and was her mentor!

2. Kirk before he was “Kirk.”

Before Sean Gunn played the role of Kirk in Gilmore Girls, he played Mick, who was the DSL installer that was hired by Emily to set up faster internet into Lorelai’s house in season one! We never saw Mick again after that episode but Sean Gunn was later casted as Kirk for the rest of the show!

3. Where is Lane’s dad?

For the first two seasons of the show, Lane’s dad was constantly mentioned, but we were never introduced to the character!

4. Michel was the only character in the show to never seem to show interest into finding love.

The only relationship that Michel was paired with was with his mother, well, and Celine Dion. When it came to finding a love interest, he only mentioned he was going to be going on a date in maybe one or two episodes. So other than showing interest in his two puppies, Chin-Chin and Paw-Paw, we never find out if Michel has feelings for anymore.

5. One of the craziest characters in the show was Jackson’s spine-chilling older brother Bo.

What took me forever to realize that he grew up to be Parks and Recreation character, Ron Swanson! I will never look at Ron the same ever again…

6. I never understood why Rory was granted valedictorian of her school.

She was transferred into the school year later, took her weeks to catch up on the school work, and was given a D once. Meanwhile, her friend Paris Geller was straight A student since preschool and never missed a day of school.

7. Rory Gilmore was a Hilary Clinton fan.

Probably not a good thing to bring up in 2016, but hopefully she has seen the world outside of that small town and opened her eyes a bit.

8. Lane Kim actor, Keiko Agena, was actually 27 years old when the first episode aired!

Good God that girl is going to age well.

When you are watching the "Gilmore Girls" revival show that is supposed to air in November, be sure to look out for some new fun and crazy twists that the show may bring!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
