I’m feeling really sad about Pretty Little Liars coming to an end, but the Gilmore Girls are almost back, so there’s a shining light in between my tears at the moment.
It’s not all witty commentary and quirky characters, though, there’s a lot of soul searching too, and tears. We were all so sad when Edward Herrmann passed away and now we’ll get to give him a proper goodbye as Richard. It looks like it will be tough goodbye. He was a huge part of the show and it’s a shame we couldn’t have had this revival before he passed, but we will give him a good memoriam, at very least. This leads to Emily not knowing who she is anymore. She’s wearing jeans and getting rid of anything that doesn’t bring her joy, and it’s priceless.
Rory, the overachiever, is also feeling very lost. She has no job, no credit, and no underwear. Ever since her final year at Yale, she hasn’t foreseen her future like she did before. She was going places and now she’s just wondering around being Jack Kerouac, as Lorelai puts it in the trailer. I’m very excited to see Rory find herself. I’ve been compared to Rory many times and now in parts of my life, I’m feeling as lost as she is. If Rory can find herself, so can I.
Gilmore Girls always knew how to pull at our heartstrings but between the tears and drama, they also made us laugh. It’s good to see Luke’s still trying to get his girls to eat healthy, but it’s a losing battle. The crazy eating habits are still alive and well.
Just under a month until we get out girls back! Let’s see how many times we can watch this trailer on repeat before Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life arrives! I’ve already lost count.
