Executive producer Amy Sherman-Palladino made it sound like the specific differences between traditional television and streaming made it a lot more appealing to her to return.

Unfortunately, Rory has a quick contradiction to Lorelai’s hopes of friendship with the comedienne.
And Alexis Bledel revealed that all of her character’s ex-boyfriends will make appearances during the reboot.
Original series creators Amy Sherman-Palladino returns to the helm, so one could infer that witty, rapid-fire banter will ensue in this return.
Netflix’s Gilmore Girls revival hails from Dorothy Parker Drank Here Productions in association with Warner Bros. “They said, ‘Can we help you with that?'” It’ll be officially called Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life, with the individual 90-minute instalments titled Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.
While fans still have several months before they can catch up with Rory (Alexis Bledel) and Lorelai (Lauren Graham), Netflix is releasing a Gilmore Girls teaser trailer to tide them over until then.
Netflix has chosen cleverly, positioning the release on Thanksgiving weekend in the USA, a time when presumably all Americans lie on the sofa Gilmore Girls-style, watching TV and eating pie, anyway. Sherman-Palladino said the upcoming episodes will highlight the impact of Richard’s death in the lives of Lorelai and her mother Emily (Kelly Bishop).

“I wanted to be a bigger part – I think they wanted me to be a bigger part of it as well”. The trailer wasted no time showcasing exactly how the writers will bring Lorelai and Rory into the present, with plenty of jokes about current events and celebs in the classic Gilmore fashion. “I promise I usually just lay there (sex too)”, the Trainwreck actress added.
