The moment we have all been waiting arrived just a few days ago: the Gilmore Girls Revival. I am sure many of you are feeling mixed emotions on the whole series. I mean, we fans have been with these characters for years. Once the show ended, you couldn't help but plan out the lives of your favorite characters. Well 15 years later and it has finally been done. Personally, I am happy with the overall outcome of all the character's lives, although there are a few aspects I would not have expected from each individual. As always, I am left with some questions for the producers.
What happened to Lorelai and Christopher?
Obviously, considering past circumstances between the two, it was bound for them to eventually stop keeping in touch. But I don't know, I have always had hope in Christopher and Lorelai. Don't get me wrong, I am Team Luke all the way, but there's something about them. Christopher and Lorelai have that bond, a real connection. I always figured that he would still be involved in Rory and Lorelai's lives. At least still in Rory's life, because you know how Luke would react if Christopher tried contacting Lorelai again.
Why are Paris and Doyle divorced?
Given the two personalities, I can see a divorce happening between the two. However, I always picked them as a weird but also perfect match. They truly are soulmates. Come on, who could deal with those two besides those two themselves? They're a mess.
Why are Rory and Logan having an affair and not together?
I have always been Team Logan. Okay yeah, he can be a jerk. But he really did love Rory and care about her. And through all his screw ups, that really shows. And now he is engaged to this woman who doesn't even live in the same country, and occasionally sees Rory when she is in London? I don't get it. They clearly love each other. I mean maybe Logan isn't the best person for her, but like come on. This affair is hurting both of them. Ugh it makes me sad.
Who is the father?
I get that they left it open ended for the viewers to decide, and there are subtle hints that points to who the father is. But whoa. Rory, what happened? The girl who always seemed to have it all together actually doesn't. I get that those were supposed to be the last four words. But what does Lorelai say? Does Rory ever tell the father? Is it Logan? Paul? I mean there aren't many options based on the timing of it all.
Does the book help Rory's career take off?
To be completely honest, when she proposed the book to Lorelai I may have shed a tear. It was just super emotional. And I love that Jess is the one who gave her that idea. I also wonder how Lorelai reacted to the finished copy. I have so many questions. But I just want to know if Rory's alternate career path as an author is a good fit for her. She deserves the best, we all just want her to have a happy life.
Overall, I loved the Gilmore Girls Revival. It provided a lot of clarity for the characters. While I do have so many more questions involving all the other characters, these are the five that I want answered the most. Who knows, maybe there will another revival in the next 15 years! I mean it's probably unlikely, but a fan can dream, right?
