Every girl dreams of a Lorelai/Rory type relationship. From the never ending array of take-out food to the unreasonable amount of coffee consumed per day, everybody wants to be a Gilmore. As the revival of "Gilmore Girls" is almost upon us, there are more than a few reasons why Rory, Lorelai, Emily and Richard are beloved. Here are six reasons that every girl wants to be a Gilmore.
1. Stars Hollow
Pack your bags mom, because we are moving to Stars Hollow! Every girl that has ever watched "Gilmore Girls" inevitably falls in love with the quaint, exciting little town of Stars Hollow. Let's not forget about how adorable this town looks during the four seasons.
2. Endless coffee (and food) from Luke's
How many times did Lorelai and Rory ACTUALLY PAY for their coffee? Almost never. If being friends with Luke means endless amounts of oversized-mugs-full-o'-coffee, then count me in. Not to mention that a vast array of muffins, donuts, pancakes, burgers and french fries always seem to be at their beck and call.
3. Friday Night Dinner at 7pm
Friday Night Dinners. This is where things get messy -- and HILARIOUS. Who wouldn't want to sit down with Emily Gilmore to hear the latest gossip and DAR drama? While Lorelai and her parents have their differences, we all wish our grandparents were as dynamic as Emily and Richard. Plus, what's more entertaining than finding out which new housemaid will be opening the door to take your coat?
4. Rory and Lorelai's incredible metabolisms
Episode after episode, Rory and Lorelai stuff their faces with enormous amounts of food. We all want to be a Gilmore, for the sheer fact that no matter how many donuts, pancakes or calories they consume, they still look FLAWLESS.
5. The wardrobe
Every girl wants to be a Gilmore because they somehow manage to get away with anything in the style department. Whether it's the bang phase, bright patterned dresses or printed tees, the Gilmores manage to make our awkward years, well---A LOT more awkward. While Rory is pretty "plain Jane," she wears a turtleneck and plaid skirt better than anyone in the history of the private school dress code. And Lorelai, well, she's the trendiest mom on the planet -- far ahead of her time.
6. The men
In a small town of Stars Hallow, it seems as though the choices of men are not. From friendship to romance, the Gilmore girls wouldn't ironically be the Gilmore girls without the men of the show. Whether it be a 5-year friendship that finally blossoms into true love (c'mon Luke, we knew since Season One) or the indecisiveness of a confused teenager. Granted, we must not forget characters like Michel, Taylor, Kirk and Richard who also bring incredible charisma and spontaneity to this incredible show. Whatever your favorite leading (or supporting) man, we love them all and wish we were a Gilmore.
