- 1:29Speaker 1: Gilmore fan. We're going to get into it. Let's synopsize
- 1:32Speaker 1: here while visiting new Haven, Connecticut. Richard announces that he
- 1:36Speaker 1: has arranged a surprise visit an interview for Rory with
- 1:41Speaker 1: the dean of admissions at Yale University, not Harvard, but
- 1:45Speaker 1: at Yale. Oh, there's trouble in River City and the

- 2:04Speaker 1: this very little known writer, up and coming writer name
- 2:08Speaker 1: or Amy Sherman Palladino. Are you guys aware of anything
- 2:13Speaker 1: she's done?
- 2:15Speaker 4: Me?
- 2:15Speaker 3: Definitely not.
- 2:16Speaker 2: No, never anything else that she's done ever, No, Emmy's
- 2:20Speaker 2: no nothing, No.
- 2:20Speaker 1: Definitely no, okay, just one of the giants of the
- 2:25Speaker 1: entertainment industry. Before we get into it, Emily, what made
- 2:30Speaker 1: you start watching Gilmore Girls?
- 2:35Speaker 3: That is an excellent question. Well, an answer you're probably
- 2:38Speaker 3: not expecting.
- 2:39Speaker 2: I think why I initially started watching Gilmore Girls is
- 2:43Speaker 2: because I wasn't allowed to growing up. It was a
- 2:46Speaker 2: show that was I was I'm thirty three now, so
- 2:50Speaker 2: when Gilmore Girls was really hitting it stride, I was
- 2:52Speaker 2: a little too still a little too young for it
- 2:54Speaker 2: and of course, was fascinated by the concept of this show.
- 2:59Speaker 3: All my friends were watching it, and my parents were.
- 3:01Speaker 2: A little protective of what we watched on television, and
- 3:05Speaker 2: it was something I could never watch until I was
- 3:08Speaker 2: in my probably early twenties, and I went through. I
- 3:11Speaker 2: went through all of it, and I fell in love
- 3:13Speaker 2: with it, and now, to be quite honest, probably every
- 3:16Speaker 2: year since then, I have gone through it again.
- 3:19Speaker 5: It's required at this point, it's required of a girl.
- 3:23Speaker 1: There's no question. There's no question. How many times would
- 3:26Speaker 1: you say, you know, because I've.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Done the math and I really am.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Let's see, it's probably like thousands of hours of Gilmore
- 3:36Speaker 2: Girls at this point, like probably spent like an entire year. Well,
- 3:39Speaker 2: let's think what you got five seasons right, without including
- 3:42Speaker 2: the that we're sad sorry, seven seasons without including the
- 3:46Speaker 2: four one hour episodes that aired recently. And then I
- 3:51Speaker 2: heard there's a documentary coming out, so we're just gonna
- 3:53Speaker 2: we're just adding to the watch our count at this point.
- 3:56Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's a lot a perfect show.
- 4:01Speaker 2: It's a I'm just it's wonderful to sink in and
- 4:05Speaker 2: pull yourself out of whatever is going on in your
- 4:07Speaker 2: life and PLoP yourself down into Stars Hollow.
- 4:09Speaker 3: It's perfect.
- 4:10Speaker 1: It does have that medicinal therapeutic vibe to it, doesn't it.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Absolutely Yeah, it's impossible not to feel better after viewing
- 4:19Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes of it, you know.
- 4:21Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, I agree.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Wonderful show.
- 4:24Speaker 5: So I have a question as somebody who's done a
- 4:27Speaker 5: lot of work at Warner Brothers and both young Sheldon
- 4:31Speaker 5: and Georgie and Mandy use the back lot. So is
- 4:33Speaker 5: it weird when you're watching Gilmour Girls and you like

- 6:38Speaker 1: you there? All right, let's get into the episode a
- 6:40Speaker 1: little bit. Rory comes over after school and she to
- 6:44Speaker 1: the diner that is, and she go upstairs to look
- 6:48Speaker 1: at a book. It's awkward and nervous. They almost kiss,
- 6:53Speaker 1: and who breaks in? They're nervous around each other because
- 6:57Speaker 1: it's finally happening between them. Yeah, but who busts in?
- 7:02Speaker 3: You?
- 7:02Speaker 1: I do I come in and put a stop to
- 7:06Speaker 1: that nonsense?
- 7:07Speaker 3: Right, How would the timing work on that? Because it
- 7:09Speaker 3: was pretty good. Do you take your own queue or
- 7:12Speaker 3: was there somebody outside.
- 7:13Speaker 1: Being like, okay, go somebody else? Yeah? There, there's there
- 7:16Speaker 1: was somebody outside saying oh yeah, yeah, and they and
- 7:19Speaker 1: they are very good at that because we had to
- 7:22Speaker 1: do that a lot. Yeah, a lot of that in
- 7:24Speaker 1: the show. So it's always somebody queueing you. Very rare,
- 7:28Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you could take your own queue if
- 7:30Speaker 1: it was just a site line and you weren't going
- 7:32Speaker 1: to be you know, in camera range.
- 7:35Speaker 2: But sure, the timing is perfect on that show. I'm
- 7:38Speaker 2: sure there was a lot of that, absolutely.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, obsessively. So they almost kiss, yeah, and Luke
- 7:46Speaker 1: gives him a little what for, you know, like what
- 7:49Speaker 1: he's he ain't gonna tolerate. Do you think, Emily that
- 7:53Speaker 1: Luke was a little over the top with that or
- 7:56Speaker 1: is that an appropriate amount of protective Luke for.
- 8:01Speaker 2: I love this moment for your character because it's kind
- 8:04Speaker 2: of the first time we've seen him had to be
- 8:06Speaker 2: stepping into a fatherly figure, and so it's sort of
- 8:10Speaker 2: like he's busting at the seams to sort of do
- 8:12Speaker 2: this for her. For Rory and the way that he's
- 8:15Speaker 2: shown up for her for so long as he feeds her,
- 8:17Speaker 2: you know, and how he gets to have this other
- 8:19Speaker 2: role which is really protecting her and as much as
- 8:23Speaker 2: it is about, you know, keeping everybody in line, I
- 8:26Speaker 2: think that really stems from he wants to protect Rory
- 8:29Speaker 2: and and.
- 8:30Speaker 3: You know, I don't know.
- 8:31Speaker 2: I think my parents probably would have reacted the same way.
- 8:35Speaker 2: I think it's okay they don't listen to you.
- 8:38Speaker 5: But what kind of a hard position for him though,
- 8:40Speaker 5: because he's protecting Rory from his own family member, So
- 8:46Speaker 5: it's kind of a weird little situation.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Yeah, he knows what kind of guy he is, and
- 8:50Speaker 2: he's worried about it and he's put in this position
- 8:52Speaker 2: where he feels like he has to put him up.
- 8:54Speaker 1: And yeah, you know, don't screw up this relationship with Rory,
- 8:59Speaker 1: and moreover, do not screw up my relationship with Laura.
- 9:03Speaker 3: Law exactly exactly.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, well, Ory and Jests are
- 9:09Speaker 1: nervous around each other, and Emily, we know your team, Jess. Okay,
- 9:14Speaker 1: we get that, we got the memo.
- 9:16Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, what are.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Your thoughts when you first saw this episode?
- 9:22Speaker 2: Like finally, I think probably I think I was a
- 9:25Speaker 2: little and you know, no shade to anybody else, but
- 9:29Speaker 2: I think I was getting a little tired of the
- 9:32Speaker 2: way Dean would talk to Rory's very controlling of Rory.
- 9:38Speaker 2: He's clearly very jealous, and I think I was waiting
- 9:41Speaker 2: for a character that was kind of more on her same.
- 9:46Speaker 3: Intelligence level and height.
- 9:49Speaker 2: And I wanted to see somebody else come into the picture.
- 9:53Speaker 2: And I think Laura I even has like a line
- 9:56Speaker 2: in this that's like, you know, she's seventeen, it's about
- 9:59Speaker 2: time she had a which I think was is perfect
- 10:03Speaker 2: and I'm sure, yeah, it made me think about all
- 10:05Speaker 2: the justices in my life too. But the arc of
- 10:08Speaker 2: his character throughout the whole series is it grows so much,
- 10:11Speaker 2: it changes, And I think that's why I am team
- 10:14Speaker 2: Jess because at the end of the day, like he
- 10:16Speaker 2: fights for her, he believes in her, he pushes her,
- 10:18Speaker 2: And that's the kind of partner that you want to have,
- 10:21Speaker 2: even if they don't end up together. I think you
- 10:23Speaker 2: want somebody that's on that's on your side, right right.
- 10:26Speaker 1: Yeah, If not romantically, at least a good close friend
- 10:29Speaker 1: who really knows you and can nail you and like
- 10:33Speaker 1: him you know, and say that and say the truth
- 10:36Speaker 1: without repercussions. Yeah, yes, I agree, I agree in that regard.
- 10:44Speaker 1: As a friend, yes, I would say I am team
- 10:46Speaker 1: Jess as well as a friend.
- 10:48Speaker 3: As a friend, sure, okay.
- 10:51Speaker 1: So we can agree on that, all right. Uh. Rory
- 10:54Speaker 1: asked Laura Lai to support her with Jess because Laura
- 10:58Speaker 1: I ain't digging the I d Rory gets back from
- 11:02Speaker 1: ye Out, she meets up with Jess, plants one on him,
- 11:07Speaker 1: and then she says she's gotta go.
- 11:09Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 11:09Speaker 5: Yeah, that gas pump scene.
- 11:11Speaker 3: Like stumbling to put this cigarette back in the pocket and.
- 11:16Speaker 5: Man, I tell you, yeah, and it's it's like hot
- 11:19Speaker 5: and heavy for a second, and then she's like, oh wait,
- 11:21Speaker 5: I gotta go.
- 11:22Speaker 2: I know, but I love that because she goes to
- 11:25Speaker 2: sort of make sure it's right, because she's such a
- 11:27Speaker 2: good girl, like she wants to make sure, you know,
- 11:29Speaker 2: she's starting to really feel something. She's like, I got
- 11:31Speaker 2: to make sure I've got all my you know, my
- 11:33Speaker 2: t's crossed and my eyes got it before I really
- 11:36Speaker 2: get into this.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a little nerve wracking pulling. He's pulling out
- 11:39Speaker 1: a cigarette next to a gas pump, and I was like,
- 11:42Speaker 1: please don't light that up. Just could have tragic consequences.
- 11:46Speaker 5: A whole different show, Like that's not real.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like it's like, you know the James Dean
- 11:52Speaker 1: barbecue roast, you know.
- 11:54Speaker 5: Yeah, well you got er filming right next door, so
- 11:57Speaker 5: it would have been perfect.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Oh perfect, Yeah, brothers apartment, you.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Know, a couple of blocks down, calling George Clooney come
- 12:05Speaker 1: on and help us out over here. All right, let's uh,
- 12:17Speaker 1: let's get into a little bit of Luke and Jess
- 12:21Speaker 1: a little bit more anyway. Supportive of Rory and Jess.
- 12:24Speaker 1: He's finally getting together, but he doesn't really have any
- 12:29Speaker 1: clue how to handle it, so he just handles it
- 12:31Speaker 1: the way Luke handles it. He sets the ground rules,
- 12:35Speaker 1: Jess agrees to those ground rules, and Laurel I knows
- 12:40Speaker 1: how it is with teens, and is teasing Luke as
- 12:44Speaker 1: he squirms on how to deal with this situation. What
- 12:48Speaker 1: do you think do you trust Jess with Rory?
- 12:53Speaker 5: I do?
- 12:55Speaker 2: I do, And I don't know whether that's just because
- 12:57Speaker 2: sometimes I have bad taste in men, but I do.
- 13:00Speaker 3: I do trust that. You know, he's it's it's gonna
- 13:05Speaker 3: be okay.
- 13:06Speaker 2: There's something there's something about him that I think he
- 13:08Speaker 2: himself is also protective of her, and I think his
- 13:12Speaker 2: rebellion in some ways, as it does cross over into
- 13:15Speaker 2: their relationship occasionally, I think he's really just.
- 13:17Speaker 3: Trying to work it out for himself.
- 13:18Speaker 2: I don't think he would ever hurt her, But I
- 13:21Speaker 2: do love that moment at the diner where you guys
- 13:24Speaker 2: are talking about how I've given him a big, strong talk.
- 13:27Speaker 2: He's not gonna he's gonna stay away from her. They're
- 13:29Speaker 2: gonna be respectful, and she's like, really, because they're together.
- 13:34Speaker 3: I love that.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Great stuff, really great stuff.
- 13:40Speaker 5: And then he tries to turn it around on Laura Lin, like,
- 13:42Speaker 5: how did you try that.
- 13:43Speaker 3: How can you let them? She doesn't even have her sweater? Like,
- 13:45Speaker 3: what are you doing?
- 13:46Speaker 1: Right? Right? Right? Right?
- 13:48Speaker 3: Perfect?
- 13:48Speaker 1: I know those two they're wacky. Uh, all right, now
- 13:53Speaker 1: we're gonna deal with Richard and his little surprise. Guys, guys, yeah,
- 14:00Speaker 1: what do we think of Richard here? I mean, it's
- 14:05Speaker 1: not about taking sides, it's about seeing it from everybody's perspective.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And I can see it from his perspective. I can
- 14:12Speaker 1: see it from Laurelized perspective, which makes great drama, right,
- 14:16Speaker 1: It really does make great conflict. But inevitably, you know,
- 14:21Speaker 1: you want to kind of I don't know, there's there's
- 14:25Speaker 1: an impulse to say, well, he's being manipulative, right, and
- 14:28Speaker 1: laurelize over but Laurel lie overreacting. What is it? Emily?
- 14:32Speaker 1: How do you feel about this?
- 14:34Speaker 2: I have complicated emotions about this whole thing, because I
- 14:38Speaker 2: think I know that Richard and Emily are trying to
- 14:42Speaker 2: make sure that Rory is protected and that she's she's
- 14:46Speaker 2: getting everything she needs out of life, and that she
- 14:48Speaker 2: has every opportunity, and they're giving her all of that.
- 14:50Speaker 2: And and I think even the way that when it
- 14:54Speaker 2: turns out he's sort of set this whole thing up
- 14:57Speaker 2: for her to meet with the is a dean of
- 14:59Speaker 2: admission or something.
- 15:00Speaker 3: The whole reason they're they're so she can meet with
- 15:02Speaker 3: the demon missions. I love the way it's written that
- 15:05Speaker 3: Rory goes in there.
- 15:06Speaker 2: She crushes it, but then she's like, you didn't let
- 15:08Speaker 2: me prepare. And the way she responds it's not rude
- 15:10Speaker 2: and it's not harsh.
- 15:12Speaker 3: It's her reacting.
- 15:13Speaker 2: From a place of like, I would have done this
- 15:15Speaker 2: for you if you had asked me to. And I
- 15:18Speaker 2: love the way that Emily protects her husband because you
- 15:21Speaker 2: can see all over her face he didn't tell her either,
- 15:23Speaker 2: and he sends the whole day being like, this is
- 15:25Speaker 2: where we kissed, and this is where I proposed, and
- 15:27Speaker 2: isn't this magical?
- 15:28Speaker 3: And then he just kind of shits all over it.
- 15:30Speaker 2: And I think his reaction to Laura I of like, well,
- 15:36Speaker 2: you know, you never went to college, you never went
- 15:38Speaker 2: to an ivy league school.
- 15:39Speaker 3: You don't know what you're dealing with.
- 15:41Speaker 2: It's demeaning, but it's coming from a place that he
- 15:44Speaker 2: knows he's wrong, because why else would you respond in
- 15:47Speaker 2: that way unless you know that you kind of screwed
- 15:50Speaker 2: up the way this was supposed to go.
- 15:51Speaker 3: So I think it's a really well written I thought
- 15:54Speaker 3: it was. I loved it.
- 15:56Speaker 1: Yeah, and it just furthers the delta, the gulf between Yes,
- 16:02Speaker 1: Lorelei and.
- 16:03Speaker 3: Her family parents.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Right, it's very very very supple, let's let's call it
- 16:09Speaker 1: a very supple spine in this in this storytelling because
- 16:15Speaker 1: of that tension of them getting closer and closer and
- 16:19Speaker 1: maybe there's going to be a little love expressed between
- 16:22Speaker 1: the two sides. And it's always dash.
- 16:25Speaker 2: It's something and it's both sides doing it wrong, and
- 16:29Speaker 2: they can't blame one party. It's both of them handling
- 16:32Speaker 2: every situation like if one side just gave a little bit,
- 16:37Speaker 2: you know, it would change everything. And know everybody is
- 16:40Speaker 2: so stubborn and they can't they can't find a middle ground.
- 16:44Speaker 1: But on the other hand, wasn't it very nice to
- 16:46Speaker 1: take a little trip down memory lane with Richard and
- 16:49Speaker 1: Emily about how they met, they kissed and like that.
- 16:54Speaker 5: It was fun to get their backstory.
- 16:56Speaker 3: Do you remember where they where did they shoot Yale?
- 16:59Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think that's U s la
- 17:02Speaker 1: Is in.
- 17:02Speaker 5: UCLA this episode we talked about this when we recorded
- 17:06Speaker 5: town meeting this episode Pomona College you out there? Yeah,
- 17:12Speaker 5: the Harvard visit in season one was UCLA.
- 17:16Speaker 3: Did you guys ever, guys ever go to Occidental College?
- 17:19Speaker 3: Do you remember? That's right, That's where I went to school.
- 17:23Speaker 2: And every time I watch anything, I see campus because
- 17:26Speaker 2: it's a beautiful campus and a lot of people shoot there.
- 17:29Speaker 5: They they may have in I think in season seven
- 17:33Speaker 5: when Lorelei and I forgot his name, Christopher, I blanked
- 17:40Speaker 5: on his name when they went to the parents' day,
- 17:44Speaker 5: that may have been.
- 17:45Speaker 3: It may have been Okay, yeah, I'm always always curious or.
- 17:48Speaker 5: A usc it was one of those two, got it?
- 17:51Speaker 3: Well, it was just curious.
- 17:53Speaker 1: It's very nice to find out a little backstory between
- 17:56Speaker 1: those two. It really was.
- 17:57Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, Emily was the other woman, Like, who knew?
- 18:00Speaker 3: I can see it right, I like it?
- 18:06Speaker 1: So h you know. Laurel I adamantly defends Laurie Rory
- 18:14Speaker 1: demands that she is going to Harvard, no questions to ask.
- 18:19Speaker 1: They argue about it, as you mentioned, Emily, her Laurelize
- 18:24Speaker 1: lack of education comes up in the conversation, which, man,
- 18:27Speaker 1: what a low blow. What a low blow. But Richard,
- 18:35Speaker 1: I mean he's got the right intentions. It's hard to
- 18:38Speaker 1: really assign one hundred percent blame anywhere, but you know, man,
- 18:44Speaker 1: you get one shot at this thing. He isn't wrong,
- 18:47Speaker 1: he isn't wrong about what he's doing, but he's wrong
- 18:51Speaker 1: about the way he went about doing right well, anyway,
- 18:58Speaker 1: it just humanizes the character or even more, doesn't it.
- 19:01Speaker 1: You know, even Richard makes a little mistake. We're getting
- 19:06Speaker 1: into this closing scene where Rory goes to talk to
- 19:11Speaker 1: Dean by climbing up a tree and knocking on his window.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Something Rory's never done ever.
- 19:18Speaker 1: C the tree, Okay, and this is after she met
- 19:21Speaker 1: up with Jess at the James Dean gas station pump
- 19:26Speaker 1: and she apologizes to Dean. And I just thought Jared
- 19:32Speaker 1: played this beautifully. He was just there was that kind
- 19:35Speaker 1: of shock and he was still pissed and he was
- 19:40Speaker 1: still hurt. But you could see he was kind of
- 19:43Speaker 1: like at at a certain stage in his grief where
- 19:46Speaker 1: he was like now it's.
- 19:49Speaker 3: Like anger, yeah, oh yeah, are you with him now?
- 19:54Speaker 1: Right? Right, He's still the wound is still a little
- 19:57Speaker 1: bit fresh, and man, he shuts the wind, no honor
- 20:01Speaker 1: he does.
- 20:01Speaker 2: That window is huge too. It's a big window. I
- 20:04Speaker 2: would have been crawling in and out of there everything.
- 20:07Speaker 1: You got a rooftop, you got a tree. Yeah, I
- 20:10Speaker 1: mean it's perfect. Yeah. What did you guys think of
- 20:14Speaker 1: that scene? Emily, what'd you think of that scene?
- 20:16Speaker 3: I liked it. I had questions.
- 20:17Speaker 2: I'm like, how did they not see her climbing up
- 20:19Speaker 2: the you know, logistical questions about how is she sitting on.
- 20:23Speaker 3: There if nobody's hearing them talk? How did he not
- 20:25Speaker 3: tell his mom?
- 20:25Speaker 2: You know, he's very close to his mother, right, but
- 20:28Speaker 2: it goes to show that he was too.
- 20:29Speaker 3: He's still too hurt to even share it because he's embarrassed.
- 20:32Speaker 2: And it's horrible that not only have they broken up,
- 20:35Speaker 2: but she's immediately sort of moved on and so and
- 20:38Speaker 2: it's a small town and everybody knows, and that's embarrassing.
- 20:41Speaker 2: But I think it kind of did bother me how
- 20:44Speaker 2: much she apologizes, because I don't really.
- 20:46Speaker 3: Know if she did anything wrong.
- 20:49Speaker 2: You know, she's a teenager and it didn't end it
- 20:52Speaker 2: ended up not working out, but I think there were
- 20:55Speaker 2: a lot of things that would have forced them apart
- 20:56Speaker 2: had it not been Jess. So I think it's a
- 20:59Speaker 2: kind thing for her to do. It's always nice to
- 21:01Speaker 2: apologize when something ends. But I don't know if he if.
- 21:05Speaker 2: I think she said because he's hurt and she really
- 21:07Speaker 2: did love him, and it's a nice ending for the
- 21:09Speaker 2: audience to be like, Okay, you know, we don't hate her.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a tough scene. Yeah, that was a
- 21:16Speaker 1: tough scene. That's a heartbreaking, wasn't it. It made me
- 21:20Speaker 1: it just my heart was breaking more for him.
- 21:23Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, yeah.
- 21:25Speaker 1: You know all all all young guys have been through that,
- 21:29Speaker 1: and it's yeah, it hurts, it hurts. It's deep pain,
- 21:34Speaker 1: deep deep, it's a deep burn. Anyway, Rory comes home
- 21:42Speaker 1: and Laura la I asked about the rest of her evening,
- 21:45Speaker 1: and they both go to bed reading about Yale.
- 21:49Speaker 5: I love that.
- 21:51Speaker 3: I love that fun, real moment. It reminds me of
- 21:55Speaker 3: I remember which which episode it is.
- 21:57Speaker 2: It's past this one, but or no, it's before it's
- 22:00Speaker 2: season two when Luke builds the hoopah for her and
- 22:07Speaker 2: they're both standing underneath it, and it's a nice little
- 22:11Speaker 2: homage to the future, and I think this is that
- 22:15Speaker 2: as well.
- 22:15Speaker 3: I love those moments that Amy does. I think they're great.
- 22:19Speaker 1: You think that Rory is moving on too soon after
- 22:24Speaker 1: her breakup with Dean. You think it's just too you know, jumping.
- 22:28Speaker 2: You know, what's the I mean, everybody's got their own timeline.
- 22:32Speaker 2: I think there's also something to be said for being
- 22:35Speaker 2: seventeen when a month feels like a year.
- 22:38Speaker 3: And I think, you know, it's if it was a big.
- 22:43Speaker 2: Bustling town and there were a lot of boys running around. Maybe,
- 22:48Speaker 2: but there's like one other cute guy in that town.
- 22:51Speaker 5: You know, there's not a lot of options.
- 22:54Speaker 2: There's a lot of options like let let her move
- 22:57Speaker 2: on as fast as she wants, I think, And.
- 23:00Speaker 5: I think she had already moved on, like she kind
- 23:02Speaker 5: of checked out of the Dean really he did.
- 23:04Speaker 2: Absolutely there, Yes, yes, I agree.
- 23:09Speaker 3: No offense to the men of Stars Hollow.
- 23:11Speaker 1: Just no, no, no, no, they're just they're glad that
- 23:15Speaker 1: they've been mentioned every once in a while, they got
- 23:18Speaker 1: a line here and there, you know what I mean. Yeah,
- 23:21Speaker 1: they're not Emily. We really love the fact that you're
- 23:26Speaker 1: a true, true fan of the show. Yeah, what does
- 23:29Speaker 1: the show mean to you?
- 23:30Speaker 3: Oh, it's such a comfort to me.
- 23:32Speaker 2: And I was just realizing something the other day. I
- 23:37Speaker 2: was telling this story about Frank Lloyd Wright and his
- 23:43Speaker 2: house burning down.
- 23:44Speaker 3: Because he was impolite to the people that worked for him.
- 23:47Speaker 3: And I couldn't remember why I.
- 23:48Speaker 2: Knew that story, and it was because girls that I
- 23:52Speaker 2: had heard it initially, and like, I've been to Falling Water,
- 23:55Speaker 2: you know, Frank Lloyd Wright Junior is all these houses
- 23:57Speaker 2: in Pasadena. You know, I am educated architecture, and like,
- 24:01Speaker 2: I know.
- 24:01Speaker 3: It because of this show.
- 24:04Speaker 2: And there's been so many moments like that in my
- 24:06Speaker 2: life where you know, the the cultural references that are
- 24:08Speaker 2: made on this show are just so thick and I
- 24:13Speaker 2: would watch an episode and be like, I actually don't
- 24:15Speaker 2: know who that is and I would look something up.
- 24:17Speaker 2: So for me, it was it was easy watching, but
- 24:20Speaker 2: also it sort of ticked a part of my brain
- 24:24Speaker 2: that because it was shot in you know, I don't
- 24:27Speaker 2: know what was you said two thousand and two. When
- 24:28Speaker 2: did you guys start two thousand and two? Two thousand Yeah,
- 24:32Speaker 2: So I mean there's things that A referenced from like
- 24:34Speaker 2: oh yeah, yeah, a lot of Bush references.
- 24:39Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like, oh, yeah, that's what year it was.
- 24:43Speaker 1: Did you watching the show influence your your career in
- 24:47Speaker 1: any way? Were you already kind of on your way
- 24:51Speaker 1: and your career.
- 24:52Speaker 2: It made me I was already working at that point,
- 24:56Speaker 2: but I think watching it, you know, because I watched
- 24:59Speaker 2: it and I really twenties, it just made me feel
- 25:02Speaker 2: sad that I didn't go away to school, like go
- 25:05Speaker 2: away to a big school. And I grew up in
- 25:08Speaker 2: LA and I wanted to stay in LA to work,
- 25:10Speaker 2: and so my options for college were not as large.
- 25:13Speaker 2: And I always wanted to go to an East Coast school.
- 25:15Speaker 2: And I think that was probably because I saw it
- 25:17Speaker 2: on TV all the time.
- 25:18Speaker 1: Gotcha, gotcha? Now, which character on the show did you
- 25:23Speaker 1: relate to the most?
- 25:24Speaker 3: Net Well, it changes, okay, because let's see, as.
- 25:28Speaker 2: A woman in my early thirties, I'd have to say
- 25:31Speaker 2: probably Emily.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Okay.
- 25:34Speaker 3: I think she's a little no nonsense.
- 25:36Speaker 2: I think she's has her opinions and she's often right,
- 25:41Speaker 2: but she sort of doesn't do them all correctly. But
- 25:43Speaker 2: I think she's a fascinating character. I really I love
- 25:47Speaker 2: I love that character. Everyone else in my life would
- 25:50Speaker 2: probably say Laura Alive.
- 25:51Speaker 1: But sure, yeah, I don't think anybody had more I
- 25:55Speaker 1: don't think an actress had more fun with a part
- 25:57Speaker 1: than Oh god, A history of TV in her. Yeah,
- 26:01Speaker 1: and Lauren just had a blast every day getting to
- 26:04Speaker 1: do those lines. You know. Yeah, Okay, let's go back
- 26:17Speaker 1: to two thousand. But you're the age you are now, okay, okay, okay.
- 26:24Speaker 1: You go to a Gilmore audition and you're you have
- 26:27Speaker 1: a choice to be cast as one of the characters
- 26:29Speaker 1: in the show. Who would it be?
- 26:30Speaker 2: Oh, Paris Killer. Absolutely, that is the most righteous character
- 26:37Speaker 2: she is. It's just such a very interesting, very well done,
- 26:41Speaker 2: very angry character, and it's.
- 26:43Speaker 3: So I love love that character.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, well, okay, with your quite extensive career in television,
- 26:53Speaker 1: that's growing and growing and growing. When you watch a
- 26:56Speaker 1: show like gilmour is it with a different eye, because
- 27:00Speaker 1: you know what takes to write a good TV show.
- 27:04Speaker 2: I think, whether I realize it or not, every time
- 27:07Speaker 2: I watch a show for some reason, I'm like, well,
- 27:09Speaker 2: what time did they shoot that? You know, they're playing
- 27:12Speaker 2: that for Sunrise, but kind of looks like something, you know,
- 27:16Speaker 2: I kind of take myself out of it a little bit,
- 27:18Speaker 2: and I think, because I've worked at Warner Brothers.
- 27:21Speaker 3: For the past oh gosh, what.
- 27:24Speaker 2: The helld am I probably ten years or so, you know,
- 27:27Speaker 2: maybe longer that actually my first job was one of
- 27:32Speaker 2: my first jobs at Warner Brothers was an episode of Friends.
- 27:35Speaker 2: So I've been at Warner Brothers for a long time
- 27:38Speaker 2: and working here and going home and then watching Gilmore Girls.
- 27:42Speaker 2: It's like I never leave work a little bit, which
- 27:44Speaker 2: probably isn't good for my mental health. But yeah, I
- 27:47Speaker 2: mean watching that show, you realize, God, you guys must
- 27:51Speaker 2: have just studied your lines forever, forever and ever. It's
- 27:56Speaker 2: so many words. And I have a lot of respect
- 27:59Speaker 2: for that because the show that I work on, you know,
- 28:01Speaker 2: we move really quickly, but it doesn't change all that
- 28:03Speaker 2: much throughout the week. And your we're your scripts were
- 28:06Speaker 2: what one hundred one hundred and something pages.
- 28:10Speaker 1: You know, they were eighty eighty eighty plus of just
- 28:13Speaker 1: like solid.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Solid dialogue.
- 28:15Speaker 2: It's so much and we're about forty forty to forty
- 28:19Speaker 2: to forty five, you know, So it's it's half of
- 28:23Speaker 2: what you guys have.
- 28:24Speaker 1: You're doing a multi multi camp.
- 28:25Speaker 3: It's a multicam.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Oh what a joy.
- 28:28Speaker 3: It's wonderful. It's wonderful.
- 28:30Speaker 1: I need to rehearse, rehearse.
- 28:33Speaker 3: I know. Did you guys do did you table reads
- 28:36Speaker 3: at all? Probably not?
- 28:37Speaker 1: Oh sure, Oh you did Oh, that's very helpful.
- 28:40Speaker 3: At least you have that.
- 28:43Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's it's a lot and you're outside
- 28:45Speaker 2: and then you're inside and you're shooting it sixty different ways,
- 28:49Speaker 2: and it's it's a single cam.
- 28:51Speaker 3: Is a lot of work. So I have a lot
- 28:53Speaker 3: of respect for that.
- 28:54Speaker 1: We did a lot of it. Boy, you're in a
- 28:56Speaker 1: great situation.
- 28:57Speaker 3: Boy, you get to very grateful.
- 28:59Speaker 1: Yeah, that is so great. They weren't doing a lot
- 29:02Speaker 1: of those. This is they're not doing a lot of
- 29:04Speaker 1: those anymore.
- 29:05Speaker 2: No, And I'm I'm you know, I worked for Chuck
- 29:08Speaker 2: Lorie Enterprises, so he's kind of he's got his finger
- 29:11Speaker 2: on the multiicam pulls for sure.
- 29:14Speaker 1: So if you're going to do one, he'd be the
- 29:16Speaker 1: guy to do it with you.
- 29:17Speaker 3: He's incredible. This is my fifth show with him, and.
- 29:20Speaker 2: He's he's amazing and he's keeping me employed.
- 29:24Speaker 3: It's nice. So grateful, all.
- 29:27Speaker 1: Right, So let's talk about Georgie and Mandy's first marriage.
- 29:29Speaker 1: It's airing its second season right now on CBS. What's
- 29:33Speaker 1: your favorite thing about filming and being part of this cast.
- 29:37Speaker 3: I love this cast so much.
- 29:39Speaker 2: You know a lot of these characters came over from
- 29:42Speaker 2: Young Sheldon, which this is you know, uh, sort of
- 29:46Speaker 2: in the same timeline as Young Sheldon. So we have
- 29:50Speaker 2: a closeness that I don't know if we would have
- 29:52Speaker 2: had if we just started fresh on the pilot with
- 29:54Speaker 2: nobody knowing each other. I'd known Montana Jordan, who plays Georgie,
- 29:59Speaker 2: my husband. I've known Montana for I think we did
- 30:03Speaker 2: the Math like five years now, and two of those
- 30:07Speaker 2: have been here. And it's easy. It's easy when you
- 30:12Speaker 2: like each other. It's easy when the hours are nice,
- 30:16Speaker 2: and it's easy when it's really well written and you
- 30:19Speaker 2: can remember it better when it's well written. I've always
- 30:21Speaker 2: found if you can't remember a line, it's probably not
- 30:23Speaker 2: written very well. And it's just such a joy. Everybody
- 30:28Speaker 2: gets along so well. Everybody brings their little dogs to work,
- 30:31Speaker 2: and we're just it really is a family.
- 30:34Speaker 3: And it's not just the cast.
- 30:36Speaker 2: I mean this crew came over from Young Sheldon as well,
- 30:40Speaker 2: and we all know each other really well. And we
- 30:42Speaker 2: get to do a live audience every Tuesday night.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Are you film on Tuesday nights?
- 30:47Speaker 2: We've film on Tuesday nights, which I've only ever done
- 30:49Speaker 2: Friday night shows for live for MULTIICAM and At first,
- 30:54Speaker 2: I was like, oh, man, I'm gonna forget it over
- 30:56Speaker 2: the weekend. And then I realized, oh, if you're a
- 30:59Speaker 2: Tuesday night show, you're out of work at two pm
- 31:01Speaker 2: on Friday, you can like actually have a weekend, which.
- 31:04Speaker 3: I've never ever had before. So I'm like, I'm taking trips,
- 31:08Speaker 3: I'm going out. It's like, it's incredible. I've never been
- 31:12Speaker 3: able to do that when.
- 31:12Speaker 1: I because you're filming Friday night, you're not out there.
- 31:16Speaker 1: You're out there one am or something like that.
- 31:19Speaker 3: Actually you'll be Our shows are only about an hour
- 31:22Speaker 3: and a half.
- 31:23Speaker 2: What yeah, yeah, actually last night last night we got
- 31:28Speaker 2: out at eight eleven six.
- 31:31Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, we're it's it's short, We're quick.
- 31:36Speaker 1: How are you doing it that?
- 31:37Speaker 3: We're really good? It's wow, We're like seamless. It's it's
- 31:44Speaker 3: such a well oiled machine.
- 31:46Speaker 2: And that's not just us, you know, that's our that's
- 31:48Speaker 2: our crew on stage, that's everybody.
- 31:49Speaker 3: We just they move so quick.
- 31:50Speaker 2: We got an Emmy winning camera crew working here from
- 31:53Speaker 2: Big Bankery.
- 31:54Speaker 3: It's like it's amazing.
- 31:56Speaker 1: And so the audience, you're always getting those initial reactions
- 31:59Speaker 1: that are makeing the final cut, right, yeah.
- 32:02Speaker 2: Making the final cut, and then also helping you decide,
- 32:04Speaker 2: you know, a joke you've done a thousand times during rehearsal,
- 32:08Speaker 2: some guy in the back laughs in a place you're
- 32:09Speaker 2: not used to, and it completely changes the way you
- 32:12Speaker 2: deliver it.
- 32:12Speaker 3: And it's it's you know, it's theater. It's awesome.
- 32:15Speaker 1: Oh, it's so good. I love that.
- 32:18Speaker 5: I have a question speaking about Young Sheldon. So, Lance
- 32:22Speaker 5: Barber was in two episodes of Gilbert Hibbles. So have
- 32:27Speaker 5: you ever like talked about that with him or Yeah?
- 32:30Speaker 2: I actually I've talked more about his time on It's
- 32:33Speaker 2: Always Sunny because I think his character, It's Always Sonny,
- 32:36Speaker 2: is such a riot.
- 32:36Speaker 3: But yeah, he was because he plays ror. He plays
- 32:39Speaker 3: the reporter that works for.
- 32:42Speaker 2: It's like an online yeah, which was really new back then,
- 32:47Speaker 2: the website that he wants her to write for or something.
- 32:51Speaker 5: And he was also in the season one episode too
- 32:53Speaker 5: is a Random Guy?
- 32:55Speaker 3: Was he really? Yeah?
- 32:56Speaker 5: He in the fashion show episode. He's the guy fixing
- 32:59Speaker 5: the stage.
- 33:00Speaker 2: No way, So they just brought him back as they
- 33:03Speaker 2: liked him and gave him or that that character is
- 33:05Speaker 2: not the same character different.
- 33:08Speaker 5: It was like six years apart, So I yeah.
- 33:10Speaker 3: Maybe a different guy.
- 33:11Speaker 2: But yeah, I've heard some stories about how the Kirk
