    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Alexis Bledel hates coffee, but Rory, her character, loves it. Whenever you see her drinking "coffee" in the series, she is actually drinking Coca-Cola out of her cup.
    • Goofs
      More than a few episodes have mic drops into the top of the scene. There is also at least one episode at Lorelai and Rory's house that shows a brown sweater sleeve of a crew member on the right side for a brief second.
    • Quotes

      [Luke and Lorelai's first real date; they have just read a long story on the back of a menu, hence the menu line]

      Lorelai: Hey, do you remember the first time we met?

      Luke: What?

      Lorelai: I'm just trying to remember the first time we met. It must have been at Luke's, right?

      Luke: [nods] It was at Luke's, it was at lunch, it was a very busy day, the place was packed, and this person...

      Lorelai: Ooh, is it me? Is it me?

      Luke: This person comes tearing into the place in a caffeine frenzy.

      Lorelai: [happily] Ooh, it's me.

      Luke: I was with a customer. She interrupts me, wild-eyed, begging for coffee, so I tell her to wait her turn. Then she starts following me around, talking a mile a minute, saying God knows what. So finally I turn to her, and I tell her she's being annoying - sit down, shut up, I'll get to her when I get to her.

      Lorelai: Y'know, I bet she took that very well, 'cause she sounds just delightful.

      Luke: She asked me what my birthday was. I wouldn't tell her. She wouldn't stop talking. I gave in. I told her my birthday. Then she opened up the newspaper to the horoscope page, wrote something down, tore it out, handed it to me.

      Lorelai: God, seriously. You wrote the menu, didn't you?

      Luke: So I'm looking at this piece of paper in my hand, and under Scorpio, she had written 'You will meet an annoying woman today. Give her coffee and she'll go away.' I gave her coffee.

      Lorelai: [grins] But she didn't go away.

      Luke: She told me to hold on to that horoscope, put it in my wallet, and carry it around with me -

      [takes a piece of paper from his wallet and gives it to her]

      Luke: one day it would bring me luck.

      Lorelai: [teasing] Well, man, I will say anything for a cup of coffee

      [reads it, grows serious]

      Lorelai: Um... I can't believe you kept this. You kept this in your wallet?

      [sees his face]

      Lorelai: You kept this in your wallet.

      Luke: Eight years.

      Lorelai: [emotionally] Eight years.

    Never gets old
    I'm on my third round of watching this programme and it just never gets old. Emily Gilmore is hands down the best character. It's funny, emotional, smart, what more can you want from a tv series? Will most definitely be rewatching again in the future.
