Lorelai and Rory (and Emily!

First Pop-Tart sighting AND first pop culture reference.

It involves Tori Spelling falling at Benihana, naturally.

Some things never change.

An appearance by Lorelais best friend: snow!

Another important update: The Gilmores have a new fridge (that somehow looks older than the original).

Emilys grieving process involves buying a huge portrait of Richard.

As Rory says, Its the whole wall.

The house is back!

And sitting on the front steps is a lost Rory.

KIRK IS ATTENDING FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER.

WHY IS KIRK AT FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER?!

WHY WASNT KIRK ALWAYS AT FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER?!

The Dragonfly is alive and well (and apparently a place where some people workout now).

You know Lorelai is struggling when she takes to the outdoors.

Is she gasp exercising?!

Now, things are hazier.

And whats with the way she says she and Luke are happy???

Our first glimpse at Richards funeral includes Emily saying, I was married for 50 years.

Half of me is gone.

Without Richard, Emily not only wears jeans and a T-shirt (!!!)

but shes decided to declutter her life by removing anything that doesnt bring her joy.

(No, the dining room chairs dont bring her joy.)

OH, HI JESS (and Jess' biceps).

Talking to a struggling, jobless Rory, Jess assures her that shes still a contender.

(For his heart??)

In all seriousness, are they in a newsroom?

‘Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life’

Netflix

Are they at Jess press?

Its a town meeting!!!

And, of course, the man in charge: Taylor Doose!

If you thought Michel wouldve somehow found happiness by now, you were wrong.

Hes still as sarcastic and grumpy as ever.

The Gilmore Girls never cared about what was fashionable.

Why do you think Lorelai wore so many shirts with dogs on them?

In a pea coat!

And hes finally figured out his hair situation!

This time, they’re signing people up for the Stars Hollow musical.

So … where’s Sutton Foster?

And now for the rest of the all-star lineup.

First up, Logan looking rich and relaxed and sexy as ever.

Paris, rolling her eyes after hopefully telling someone to get their tubes tied.

Lane might be a mother to two, but shes still rocking the drums as part of Hep Alien.

A Luke-Lorelai kiss to squash all your fears.

And finally, a smile from Emily, the cure to, well, anything.

But lets get real: That backdrop looks a lot like a wedding, am I right?
