‘Gilmore Girls’ Cast Talks Revival, Last 4 Words, Alexis Bledel Phones In | TODAY
alexis being stuck in traffic and having to do the interview by phone is such a typical "gilmore girls" situation that could've happened on the show 😂
"I was hit by a deer" just totally came to mind when reading your comment.
slvrangel22 OMG YES!! i didn't even think of it
i thought the same thing!
alvrangel22 Oh man, I wish Alexis Bledel had thought of that one when they connected the call. How hilarious would it have been if she opened with "I was hit by a deer!" :D
Oh my god yesss!!!!!
Alexis was hit by a deer
Lol
XD
BAHAHA😂😂
I love that he corrected her right away. Such a Luke thing to do.
When did he correct her?
Oh, never mind 😂
I have to admit, she recovered very graciously
@@asharrandale2213 mnhghfdgdfhdgffffffffffff*&$&&$*67664332133468😬😂😇😊🧖🎉😠🥸😎🤓😌😃😬😬🙏🏻😠🎉🧖😡🥎😘😢🎂
Of course i know what its like my name is Philip i have to correct people over and over when they spell it Phillip
Looked like Kelly teared up when talking about Edward.
yes :(
Yes they were friends before and after Glimore Girls.
Gilmore girls has a home feel to it. That’s one reason I could watch the show over and over without getting tired of it.
this is so true
closure?? pffft what closure? The only closure I felt was in the Dean scene and with Lorelai's and Luke's (lovely) marriage! That's it!
Mila Djordjevic agreed
Mila Djordjevic And to top it all off that took only 10 minutes 👎🏻👎🏻
Jua Snow the play took longer! 😭😭
Jua Snow ikr!!
Gaby G ... the play/musical was something weird -straight out of Alice in the wonderland or a really weird acid trip.
I wanna know how Emily reacted to Rory being pregnant 😫😫♥️
We need more episodes. Even if they carry it on from where they left off in 2016. I want to see Luke and Lorelais second wedding with Emily there
Eso nunca lo sabremos.
she would probably blame Lorelai for it.
The ending wasn't satisfying! If I don't get more and answers then I'm just going to pretend the 4 seasons never happened. That would be a shame.
the ending is great!!!!! it is great to start another series!
Margerita SR If thats what they plan to do then I agree but nothing has been said about that yet.
I like to pretend AYITL didn't happen either.
KELLY BISHOP IS QUEEN!
Who comes here after watching them on Netflix on 2020 during pandemic
Me
I watched this show over and over for years. I needed to take a break so I looked up interviews, behind the scenes, extras and bloopers.
I wish they would have let us enjoy Lorelai's wedding. I don't like the ending.
sandy personally I really wanted to see not only Lorelai and Luke Finally get married but get a wedding where all the cast is there but I get it..it's true Lorelai fashion to have a secret wedding
I agree and why did they decide to have Luke wear a rug? Oddly distracting on top of other things I didn't like. Turning Rory into a mess made no sense either.
I loved it I enjoyed them getting married
@@iamatransporter I agree with you! I don't understand why they decided to turn Rory into a homewrecker and Paris into a babymaker!! I mean really! That's how you want to end the show?? My own personal opinion is to never watch it again and I watched the original series over, and over again, but to be let down this bad, really is disappointing!!! I only watched it once and that was enough for me 😞
I loved Lorelai and Lukes wedding it was small and perfect for them.
I hadn't even realized that Alexis was still in the phone! She's so quiet!
I really hope Netflix picks up another series.. I really don’t want this brilliant show to die. It backed by such a huge fan base and has aged incredibly well.
Don’t leave it too late Netflix and Amy. I truly believe that with Netflix support you could reboot the entirety of Gilmore Girls and introduce a lot more.. like Rory having a family etc.
I miss Richard so, so much :(
I don't expect closure in a series like this. Life goes on and on and you never know what happens next. There is no straight line ever. Watching 'A Year..' was weird, because so much time had passed, but overall I really liked it.
"Kirk, drop the gun!" Is better than what we got honestly!
Seriously
I could listen to Kelly speak all day! 🙏🏼❤️
I was / am YEARS behind the Gilmore Girls, I just watched all of it and it’s also, now been years since the Year In The Life. I can’t believe they left the show hanging like that. I hope someone else puts money behind it and more episodes are made. ~ Nov ‘21
Laurens response to the question of whether there will be more 'episodes' leaves me hopeful. :o)
Closure? Not even close.
theres totally going to be more, they were all smirking when she asked!
Kirbyakh i think they were testing the waters with these episodes
They better come back
I think it will be up to Alexis Bledel. I dont think she is as in to it as everyone else.
@@yarncavedyeworks She looks terrible and old nowadays. I dont think she can play Rory anymore. It wouldn't be believable.
MagicTammi please she does not look old or ugly like how most people age
The last four words were originally meant for the end of the first series
I think that would have worked out better
@@sofiapereira7742 it even would have worked perfectly if it was right before she went on the bus to cover Obama's bid to senator. About to start life, back at square one thanks to the pregnancy.
@@Maatjuhhh We have no idea where Rory would have been at that point because ASP abandoned the show that season :/ But it probably would have been better than AYITL.
Is anyone going to mention that there wasn’t enough Sukie in the revival?!?!
Yeah. It felt super off because she is the bestfriend of the main actress.
That's coz melissa wasn't available she almost didn't do the revival.
@@Winter-sj9gy Melissa WAS available but ASP did not talk to Melissa during the original discussions. The ONLY reason that ASP finally asked Melissa to be in the revival is Melissa said that she was never asked & the fans were in an uproar. ASP is basically a mean girl & in the world of ASP, the fat funny sidekick doesn't become a movie star. I think that ASP thought that Lauren would become the movie star. The only good part of AYITL is Emily's story. The rest sucked.
Melissa’s schedule was too tight to do too much 🙂
@@ladygreyheart2012 You're making huge assumptions there. Why would the creator of a show be bitter about one of the cast members becoming a star? Makes no sense at all, that can only be good for the show. Watch ASP's panel at ATX festival (the one she did on her own), there's a bit where they mention McCarthy and ASP throws her arms in the air in excitement. She's proud of her. They probably just thought they couldn't afford her and that she'd be way too busy.
Logan is Rory's Chris
Jess is Rory's Luke
And dean is Rory's max
#teamjess
Omg no im team logan. Their perfect for eachother and the way they look at eachother and he looks at her. I hope shes pregnant with his baby. #ace #teamlogan
No lol. Logan isn't Chris, he is more Richard than Chris
Jess was didn't treat Rory how she should've been treated when they were dating but when Rory was dating Logan he was so nice to her. He was also really nice to her when she was struggling with her career in the reunion. So I really think it would be good if they ended up together.
Madison Rouse I totally agree with you I want Logan to just stop his engagement and go with Rory! Like they are so perfect for each other and (if it is his baby) their kid would be so cute!
I would argue that Dean was an early Logan and Max was an early Luke.
I wasn't happy at all. Rory disappointed me badly. Almost five days later and I'm still bugged.
Irene Figueroa I am so with you on that. I was very disappointed with the relational choices Rory made. Then again, I've never thought they were good for her.
I just watched it last night and I’ve been mad all day
Rory is just a disappointment in general as the series went on. AYITL made her into even more of a train wreck... You would have thought she'd grown since then, but NOPE.
Tell me did you make stupid choices growing up. did you learn from your choices. No one is perfect. Not even fans. We all do stupid stuff growing up. If she was perfect all the time and didn't do stupid stuff you all would b**th about that too. @@chloe2264
Kelly's highlight is perfect👸🏻
The ending was great but I'm sitting here like NOOOO! NO NO NO NO NO! It CANNOT be over. GIVE ME ANOTHER SEASON! NAO! D:
me too.
xD thats how my mom reacted
Give me six more seasons!!
A film 🤗
Theory: Main show, Gilmore Girls, is Rory’s book in TV show format and she glorifies some of the events and characters whereas the revival is what really happens if her life, the real characters and what they are really like as people.
I miss Gilmore girls! I’m in love with the show and its characters! 😩😢 hope there’ll be more seasons or a movie coming soonest!
This by far was a better interview than the one in Facebook headquarters the other day. Much of that audience hadn't seen all 4 episodes, combined with the fact that the moderator was less than stellar.
scott is super candid and frank in this interview and i so appreciate it
Years later and I'm still so bummed. What resolution? What closure? I'm still waiting to figure it out... Anyone else?
Kelly Bishop is beautiful as ever. I hope I look half as good at her age.
I freaked out at the end of the the forth episode, and not because of the ending, but because there were only 4 episodes. well i also did freak out about the way "Rory" said at the end.
Amy Hoang I was screaming at the end cuz it was so weird
Dodie J full circle man
I want more Gilmore Girls 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
There better Fricken be another episode. So many unanswered questions. Who's the dad? Did Lorelei and Luke get a kid? What happens with Jess and Rory?
AND WHO WROTE THAT NASTY LETTER TO EMILY!?!!
Liv but there was the guy dressed as a wookie that she had a one night stand with.
Tabetha Smith Rory would have been almost 6-7 months pregnant at that point...we would've been able to tell.
Truelady2Anna that's true. I didn't even think about that.
I wish Luke and Lorelei did have a kid
Tabetha Smith but that mathematically doesn’t make sense considering the time she finds out she’s pregnant. She would have to be like 6 months a long for the Wookie to be the dad
netflix will reveal soon if there is gonna be a another season of a year in the life of gilmore girls i hope so
charmer2323 me too!!
After that ending there better be lol!
well it all depends if the actors and actresses and writers and directors are all up for it aint lauren still working on parenthood? but heck i dont see why they cant do both its once a year 4 episodes ill take what i can get
parenthood ended about a couple of years ago. milo/jess is on this is us and liza/Paris is oh how to get away with murder. everyone seems to be open to it....especially Scott and lauren. I worry about Alexis sometimes though...she seems one foot in and one foot out about it depending on the day you ask her.
Its also up to the budget im sure netflix would be up for it because it will draw fans into netflix cause gilmore girls is one of the most beloved family shows . Hell i love it and im a guy lol .
This revival is gonna get a second part? Because COME ONNN! That ending scene got me on the edge of my seat! omg
Scott Peterson . Yikes
And Kelly looks like she doesn't even know Patterson is his real name, lol.
Scott handled that gracefully.
I know right! It comes across so insulting and disrespectful. Id feel embarassed to have to correct them!
Aha i guess they didn’t see each other loads in filming and she is getting on a bit
“kirk drop the gun” HAHA
I’m on season 7 and I love that I’ve waited to watch this treasure! ❤️
We can't get enough of watching the Gilmore Girls.
This is one of my most fav shows and I wish I haven't seen it all so that I could watch it for the first time! Absolutely love the casts and the storyline
SO LAUREN GRAHAM IS DOWN!!! YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
How Gilmore Girls ends.
Rory finishes her book, and Jess publishes it.
It becomes a huge hit. Even going to be made into a movie.
She’s a famous author, and Stars hollow become a national treasure.
Jess hasn't read the book yet, but when he finally get around to reading it.
He realizes that he is the father of her child. and this time, rory proposes to him.
They are the actors playing the role, and the final scene where she proposes,
she doesnt give him the script chapter. They end up having a proposal on set.
They have a very gg wedding, and move in together to philadelphia.
They have the baby, and Lorelai and Luke, Emily, Rory and Jess, and everyone else live happily ever after.
GOD. How difficult is it to have a happy ending????
Ilove watching the Gillmore Girls 👧. Miss that show
Love watching Kelly Bishop. She is brilliant in everything she does. Loved her also as Miles Silverbergs mom.
Is no one gonna point out that we haven't found out about Sookie's baby's gender .
How could she screw up Scott’s name??? Honestly.
I don't think Alexis Bledel knows what "closure" means
I used to really enjoy the show, but the returning 4 episodes weren´t that good after all, the episodes had a bunch of worthless moments like the almost 10 mins wasted on the show about Stars Hollow, they spend 3 full episodes with any growth from the Gilmore Girls to give some closure on the last minutes? It wasn´t worth it
Manuel Corrales same. A lot of wasted time ;/
Didn't like the 4 episodes either. They werent as witty as much, the dialogue wasnt as fast for the last 3 episodes for some reason...and unfortunately this was the best th I about the show. And there seemed to be gaps in the script. You could literally see the stars (in some cases) waiting awkwardly or smiling for the other person to finish their line. That never happened before. If they do a spin off for Rory and Logan they need to hire back the witty writer they fired. Because clearly someone is missing from the writting team
@@vuyon5317 They did have Amy Sherman Paladino back for AYITL. That's why it was such a big deal, but she didn't watch the last season out of spite (even though SHE abandoned the show because she wanted more money) and it showed. If she got over herself and watched the series over from start to finish before writing the new episodes, I think we would have gotten a much better revival and better defined characters that weren't floundering and didn't grow at all in between the time gap.
Really nice ending. It leaves us so many things to imagine that could happen. I don't know. I love Logan.
There has to be more !!!
Can't believe they ended like this. I am more upset than I was in the end of season 7 😒👎🏼
Anybody else not watch it yet because you don't want it to be over again?
Joelena Baccus definitely watch. it changes everything. ♡
loved the reboot!!! but the ending wth! they definitely left us wanting more. . . hopefully they make more seasons. . .it kind of felt like they picked right back up where they left off and everyone aged so well! come on producers and writers more more
wow Lauren is the only one who didn’t get old
Everyone wants an ending and closure to the show and feel like they didn't get that but I loved that the ending was more open and also left us with some more questions because life goes on and there's no ending on life and that felt more realistic and I think that goes very well with the show.
I would never say no to more episodes because I love the show and I would love to see more always but I think it was a great ending
When I started watching the show a few months ago I immediately fell in love with it and all the characters. Absolutely adore it bc nowadays there exists plenty of shows and yet this is one the best!! I'm beyond happy and thankful that Netflix did those 4 episodes and the final ending they made was the most magical, sweetest thing ever, I'll miss watching this show so so much and even it's kinda difficult I really hope they do another reunion and maybe some more chapters in a few years... 🥺❤️❤️
Me too...we are newbies❤
I’ve got the 7 year itch for more Gilmore Girls.
Oh, great. I started crying again.
Lorelei best scene is when she is on the trail and calls her mother .
Rory' s are ,with Lane at the house . Logan and Life and Death guy's .
Rory and Logan's goodbye scene.
I also loves their Gillmore the merriment. So fun. Loved that marathon. Hope they do it again.
😫😫😫 cliffhanger but actually the perfect ending
JUSTBE__GEEKY exactly...it brings the series to a full circle. We first met Lorelai back in 2000 when she was 31 (or was it 32) and she was raising her daughter while trying to achieve her dream (opening an inn with Sookie) and now we have Rory who's the same age as Lorelai when we first met her and is having a child and doing the book (which I'm guessing corresponds to the inn dream). With this logic Lorelai=Rory Rory=Rory's kid
Christopher=(most likely) Logan and maybe
Luke (man she was meant to be with)= Jess (I never really liked Jess but he really grew up in the revival)
YES EXACTLY SHE IS FOLLOWING IN LORELAIS FOOTSTEPS (SORRY FOR THE CAPITALS)
A Person... Sorry but the full circle thing is such a tired cliche. It was a tired cliche when How I met Your Mother chucked out all of Barney's character development and had Robin end up with Ted. It was a cliche when the Kings decided to taint an otherwise awesome series like the Good Wife by ending it with a slap and having Alicia not learn anything at all despite all she went though in 6 seasons. Its screams lazy writing to me even if there is something poetic about it. It doesn't ring true to the characters and is even a disservice. They've somehow regressed and simplified characters that could have been more to Freudian/Elektra complex characterization.
tffhj
I love Lauren!!
Queen Kelly ♥ ❤
More!!!
Unfortunate how Alexis couldn't make it!
If you watch the video, they say she's stuck in traffic.
Typical flakey adult Rory 🤣
I was a hardcore fan of GG from its first airing in my country almost 20 years ago. I just fell in love with it. I am proud to say that I am one of the original fans. As an original fan, I loved the four seasons. It is GG. Nothig more. Nothing less. GG never had a deeper or philosophical meaning to it. It is just a simple yet beautiful story about a group of people. Yes, the ending of the four seasos was a shocker. I could not move or talk for almost 5 min. But that ending makes sense to me. Yes, the four seasons have so many plot holes. But I am not disappointed at all. I am just happy that I got to see my beloved tv show got renewed and all the people I love were in that show. I guess my expectations were simple and I am fully satisfied.
I just finished the show and I came here to see if there r hints to more episodes coz I can't believe its over. There was some closure ig but I need more!
I actually thought the same thing about the last 4 words reminded me of the Sopranos. I like how they ended it. I hope it gets picked up for another Netflix round, but if it doesn't I would be content with the ending. I would however be upset if it ended like that with the original series. Jess is Rory's Luke, and Logan is Rory's Christopher.
hahaha closure!!!!! hahahaha they know the definition of closure right? it's not leaving the series open ended when you had the chance to end it, to tie up all of the stories.... specially the fricking co-protagonist!
I am waiting for the next #GilmoreGirls because the last is sooo 😔😥. Rory broke my heart.
help him make another series after this one because the ending is a cliffhanger
Lauren’s beautiful
My favorite part of " A day in the life" Is Rory's voice has matured. I have to say though, that her story breaks my heart. I also believe that her character will find her way. I would love to see more. The Men on this show are fantastic. Luke, Jess, Dean and Logan. Wonderful. This is my 3rd time through and I had to fast forward through anything with Taylor and April. Cheers to all Kelly is right this show has a genuine goodness that is not cloying. Luke and Suki are the characters that make me laugh most often. LOVE
really rude that people are outside the windows taking creepy pics on their cell phones.
You never watched The Today show huh?.
They had better do more! They totally left it on a cliff hanger and I cried because...what?! How can they drop that on us and then just say..."the end!" No, that can't happen. LOL
my dad is the reason 5 yr my fell in love with a grate show
i always assumed it was just going to be a nice "I love you mom" or something; i'm only part way through the first though so no spoilers please (though since they keep saying it's a cliff-hanger, I have an idea of what it could be!)
44Blueskies I would suggest staying off of social media, spoilers are everywhere!!! The ending is a HUGE cliffhanger!
44Blueskies stay off social media lol. Please I beg of u😂😉
44Blueskies mom I'm pregnant Rory says those are the last words
alex dourouklakis you are very mean 😭
Too many complainers here. The 4 Eps were solid. Easily enjoyable. Tugs at the heart strings on occasion. The Stars Hallow Musical Scene was way too long, but other than that we got the majority of the Actors back together after 9 years?! That’s incredible and unheard of for any TV series to pull off.
They did the great job but I doubt that they’ll do any more.
8.5/10
Could she not just apologize for saying Peterson instead of Patterson ?
Kirk, drop the gun? LOL
3 years later after the series ended on a cliffhanger it doesn't seem like we'll get closure on the questions that we still have about ongoing storylines.
MORE??? MORE??? MORE???Will the show continue as a 4 part series...weekly series ...or a MOVIE😇😇😇
i wouldn't want to see Rory as a mom
She is in real life.
roter13 well close your eyes
Then don't watch it if it comes on again. No is forcing you to watch it.
I hope there’s comming a new series of A year in the life
She said "Scott Peterson" that's the guys that murdered his wife... isn't it?
Here are the last four words:
Rory: Mom?
Lorelai: Yeah?
Rory: I'm pregnant.
I had no closure not about the last four words that makes sense to me now but who's the dad, (obviously probably Logan), I just wanted Jess and Rory back together why is that so hard!! There were no answers decides Lorelei and Luke getting married
kelsey rink I think I'm better off just imagining what happened to all of them. Maybe Logan is going to be what Christopher was for Lorelai and Jess is Rory's Luke.
Jess please!!!! LoL. But at the same time as much as I like Jess, there is something a little odd about her mother marrying Luke and then her marrying her stepcousin.
slvrangel22 they were together before Lorelei and Luke were married so I don't think it would be to weird they are blood related 😂 the whole family is weird any ways 😂😂
The dad is probably by the guy she had a 1 night stand with.
Leysett Hernandez keep in mind that was in spring and the end was in the fall so it would have been 5-6 months she kept it a secret so I don't think it's the wookie
The end of the series was closure. The end of this revival has more questions then answers. It was badly edited, no spark between the main actors. The secondary actors Paris, Jess, Lane, Michel, Sookie all carried this "revival". HUGE disappointment.
Amen
I just watched & finished the original show and the revival(2016) series, let me say bring it all back it's been 6 years since the reunion/revival, I mean rorys pregnant we can't leave it there! Also I think Sookie was deff missing from the 4 episodes, I think some character stories could have been seen more and then ended leaving mainly the main characters for further stories maybe, but the OG show was fantastic, didn't watch when I was younger but it was great at age 29 the show aged well in my opinion and I'll prob give it a rewatch at some point in time... great characters, great comedy, chemistry the love etc all good. They don't make shows like this anymore, here's to hoping for more gilmore girls SOON! ❤️
I live how she left it because it keeps them alive in our minds wondering what her story it rasing a child and I feel if we had to much closure it would be as exciting as it is because we just don't know and room to come back to the gilmore girls if she ever wanted to
I loved Gilmore Girls. Even though I was so excited about it, in hindsight, they never should have done the sequel. After leaving at the end of Season 6 and the new writers having to battle with the massacre which was left for them (Lorelai going to Chris at the end of the Season!), it finally felt like the show ended on a positive note. They absolutely destroyed Rory's character beyond repair. The one thing Rory always had was her drive and ambition and they completely yanked that away from her. Certain things Lorelai does also felt completely out of character. It was also a huge disappointment that Lorelai and Luke's wedding was so completely rushed and the overshadowed by Rory's announcement. I would have preferred the series to have started with them already married than to have this happen! The only storyline and character which felt completely authentic to the spirit of the show was Emily. You see the pain at losing Richard and then you see her grow from that pain and somehow find herself again. Huge disappointment overall though. I would have preferred to live with the promise of the positive lives ahead for the characters at the end of Season 7 than this. Amy Sherman Paladino's refusal to watch Season 7 was evident and it made for very glitchy storytelling.
Do you know why Amy Sherman Palladino left after season 6? Was it her choice or the network?
@@rachellivelymacknight7198 Think she and her husband left. All that was said was that they had a disagreement with the network.
Amen
@@rachellivelymacknight7198 It was stupid. It was about money. Yes, they wrote longer scripts than other hour long shows, but to abandon a hugely successful show and let someone else take over writing it.... so selfish. No care for the fans at all. I was not impressed with what she did with AYITL either unfortunately. I was SO HAPPY to have ASP back and then this is what we got.... sigh. The Marvellous Mrs. Maisel is fantastic though!
Come on I need a second part
but like rory is 32, same age her mother was when she had raised a 16 year old, gotten her into a good school, managed a business and had dreams to start her own. wow.
Ok
Kelly looks so sad about Edward
i know it looked like she was about to cry before the interviewer switched topics
the ending killed me.what about luke and Lorelai's second wedding with family and friends? how did Emily react to the pregnancy how did luke react? i cant take it it kills me
I can't believe this series has been here this long and Netflix Lovers are left hanging ugh
No Surprise 😵💫
Plot twist: Alexis wasn’t stuck in traffic she was hit by a deer, yes she got hit by a deer whilst in car and no she didn’t hit the deer😭
🙄🙄🙄
