Ready your coffee cups! According to TVLine, beloved-but-jumped-shark-and-canceled TV show Gilmore Girls is getting a limited-series revival thanks to Netflix, the cryo-lab of television.
This is great news, especially for the show's original creator, Amy Sherman-Palladino, who left after season six during Gilmore Girls' initial run. In her absence, the show's final season presented a remarkably terrible devolution of a great show, on a par with clunkers like season two of Twin Peaks. And season two of True Detective. And season three onwards of Game of Thrones*. Sherman-Palladino all but disavowed that final season, and said at this year's delightful Gilmore Girls cast reunion at the ATX TV Festival, "[A revival] would have to be the right everything—the right format, the right timing, it would have to be honored in a certain way. And if it ever came around, we would all jump in and do it. And if it ever happened, I promise you I’d do it correctly.”
There's also the mystery of how Sherman-Palladino would've ended the show if she'd still been running it. She's said in interviews that she'd planned out the show's final four words, but has never divulged what they are. Perhaps—PERHAPS!—our time to hear them has come.
*Possibly this is an unpopular opinion.
