The Road to Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

All the details you need to know

The Road to Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

Way back in 2010, Lauren Graham had an interview with Vanity Fair where she let out that "people with power" just MIGHT make a Gilmore Girls movie, but as of yet, only the fans were talking about this. It wasn't until 2013 that we heard any more talk about the movie, again from Lauren Graham. She explains in Twitter, however, that it's up to Amy Sherman-Palladino to make that happen.

Our next round of information wouldn't come for another two years. In May 2015, E! News reported that Scott Patterson appeared on a Gilmore Guys podcast and explained that "there are talks going on...but [he] can't really go into any detail, but there is some activity. But, come to find out, that was merely false hope because Patterson felt it was long overdue that the fans get SOMETHING. Just a month afterwards, Sherman-Palladinosaid, however, that there was currently nothing in the making, but that if something were to happen, it would need to be perfect.

Flash-forward four months and it is announced that Netflix has made a contract with Warner Bros. Netflix will make four 90 minute episodes and we may finally learn what those FOUR FINAL WORDS ARE. By this point, many of the original cast was on board. And in January 2016 it was confirmed by Netflix and Warner Bros. and we were given a tentative title: Gilmore Girls: Seasons. Four more months later, we were given it's official title along with a teaser poster.


Overthe course of the past 11 months we have found out just who will be reviving their old roles in the new four episodes/mini-movies. Of course Lorelai, Rory, Emily, and Luke would be returning, but many others, too, like Jess, Logan, and Dean, Babette, Taylor, and Miss Patty, and even Jackson and Sookie. There are so many others who are coming back to their roles one last time.

The original show first aired when I was only five, so my love for Gilmore Girls didn't come until much later. By the time I hit middle school this mother and daughter duo was my favorite way to unwind after school. I watched re-runs all the time. It wasn't until my sophomore year of college (just two years ago) that I finally watched it beginning to end on Netflix. I cried and laughed and got angry with the characters and they became part of the family. When it was officially announced that the revival was truly happening, I was on cloud 9. I'm sure there were others, those who followed the show when it first aired, that were happier than I, but honestly as long as they do this right, we'll all be this happy:

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
