Oy with the poodles, already!
On Wednesday, Netflix sent out a tweet that made many fans of βGilmore Girlsβ arch their brows.
The showβs revival, which debuted on Netflix over Thanksgiving weekend, was supposed to be a stand-alone series made to give fans and creator, Amy Sherman-Palladino, a little bit of closure. The reboot even featured the last four words Sherman-Palladino had always intended to end the show with. (She didnβt have the opportunity to throw them in during the seriesβ original run due to her departure before the final season.)
But boy, were those four words β spoken between Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter, Rory β open-ended.
So much so that many believe the show has to run more episodes. Even Lauren Graham, who plays Lorelai, thinks the four words seem more like a cliffhanger than a conclusion, which she mentions multiple times in her memoir, Talking as Fast as I Can.
So when Netflix tweeted out something that makes it sound like there may be more βGilmore Girlsβ in our near future, fans freaked.
(Warning: if you donβt know the four words already, this tweet will pretty much give it away.)
The tweet is a throwback reference to April Nardiniβs science fair project in Season 6, which allowed her to discover that Luke Danes was her biological father. Except, this version is tailored to Roryβs life. It features three men whom Rory slept with during the series β her ex-boyfriend Logan Huntzberger, a random dude in a Wookiee costume and Paul, Roryβs boyfriend throughout the revival whom she finds so unremarkable that she forgets that sheβs dating him.
The post also seemingly implies that a future Gilmore girl will be searching for her father, hence more episodes.
Peopleβs reactions on Twitter were mixed.
Some were overjoyed with the sort-of, not really news:
And some feel like the oddball ending suited the show perfectly and it should be left alone:
