After nine years often the air the shows highly loyal fans have gotten their loose ends all tied up with the longawaited revival. All Gilmore Girls a year in the life. As for relationships, still complicated. We want it to be. Take a look. I was starting to feel claustrophobic. Wake up feeling like the house was closing in on me like i couldnt breathe. You know . Oh, yes, i know. Put it in piles on the ground, pick up each possession and hold it. If you brings you joy, you keep it. If it doesnt, out it goes. No joy. Mom. Hes taking the dining room chairs. Dhoethen the dont bring me we always say our all joy is nonnegotiable welcome. How was it . Back on the set, just like old times when you got there . A strange, wonderful, eerie combination of just like old times, brand new, talked about it a long time. Emotional. Tinged with sadness. Beautiful costars passing. Lost ed herman. You could feel his presence everywhere. He was the kind of person who always filled up a room. Sure did. Alexis, did you all keep in touch over the years or did everyone splint you off, now time to come back together, hey, whats been going on . No. We certainly kept in touch and periodic conversations about potentially doing this but couldnt anticipated wed get a chance to actually do it. But, no. We would talk over the years, and see each other. See each other at events, too. Right . Yeah. But still a lot of catching up to do. I mean, ten years. Kelly, did you worry, it was such a magical time. Did you think to yourself, wow, if we try to reboot this and it doesnt go over well, should have left well enough alow . No. Id been wanting to do this, badgering amy for years. We should do a movie. So jealous of sex and the city. They got a movie we want a movie . They got two. Well, weve got four chapters. No. I was just so excited. And did get to finish it with amy. It always felt like wed been left in midair, a little bit. Yeah. A little weird. The way people watch tv now and some already binged it. Sit down and watchmegillah. What do you think the way theyre watching now . The creator of the series so wanted netflix to release them one at a time, because we all come from a time you look forward to the next one. Yes. Cant wait. And sort of digest it, the first one. Right. But this leaves it up to fans. So you can kind of do it the way youd like to do it. This is an impatient civilization. We want everything instantaneously. The computer age is what it is. Sort of started with the jet age. Im a little older than you are. And then you look better. So you win. Thank you. No. We are, our Attention Span is very short. Yeah. But at the same time, dealing with younger people, they grasp very quickly. The things that took us like, oh, yeah. I see what you mean. Oh, yeah. I got it. And moving on. So what do you think, alexis, it is about this particular see that captivated people years ago and is captivating people again today . What is it about it . Oh, i think now its particularly comforting, given the times we live in, but it always had a very comforting feel. The town that we live in is just a place where everyone supports each other and is kind. And helps each other out. Thats something i think is just timeless, and you can always go back to it. Those kind of communities still exist today. Of course. When you live on the east coast, kind of hard to remember that exists, in most of the country yeah. And usually you need tension. A horrible guy. Somebody everybody hates. That wasnt part of the drill of your show at all . It never was. Our show, sparkly dialogue and people having the amount of joy. The loss of ed gave the story a little more weight this time, because were all dealing with that, that loss in our own ways, and so i think it was perfect for the format to come back at a 90minute episode. It needed something a little more cinematic, and and something with a little more weight to it. When this ends, at the end of these episodes, if you binge watch and see the very end, is there a period on it or is there she wants the question. This is ellipses. Ellipses.
