Lauren Graham: Edward Herrmann Would Have Loved Gilmore Girls Revival
Lauren Graham knows how excited fans are for the return to Gilmore Girls this November 25th.
The residents of Stars Hallow have reunited for Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life, which features four 90-minute episodes spanning each of the four seasons.
Graham, 49, spoke about returning to the set, and how the absence of co-star Edward Herrmann, who died of brain cancer at 71 in 2014, will affect the show.
Hermann played Graham’s on-screen father, Richard Gilmore.
“He would have loved this [new series],” Graham told People Magazine, assuring fans that the fact that he’s not there will not be overlooked.
“His death was just a loss for us personally. It’s given the show a new complexity and depth. It’s a nice tribute to him.”
Graham’s on-screen daughter, Alexis Bledel echoed her sentiment.
“He was wonderful to work with,” she said. “Very generous and such a great presence to have on-set always.”
Fans have a lot to look forward to, Graham and Bledel revealed.
“The characters are older now and really are just supporting each other, which I think is a natural progression for a mother and daughter,” Graham said without giving too much away.
“Their dynamic is so unique,” Bledel added. There’s nothing else like it.”
Last month, Graham couldn’t contain her excitement over the A Year In the Life. She admitted that starring on Gilmore Girls was possibly the highlight of her career.
“I relished it, and I’m ruined for life because there’s no more perfect fit I feel like for me than that writing and that show,” she told People last month.
“I’m so glad I got to do it again. I just can’t even explain it. It was everything I wanted it to be and more.”
If you need a refresher, or are looking to watch Gilmore Girls for the first time, the entire series is available on Netflix.

Gilmore Girls Revival: Yup, Luke and Lorelai Are Together
He says he “can’t share much,” but Scott Patterson can be forgiven for withholding certain pieces of information.
Ahead of the highly-anticipated Gilmore Girls: a Year In The Life on Netflix (debuts November 25th), Patterson talked with People Magazine about what it was like shooting the four-part series.
“I can tell you that we are together,” Patterson said of his character, Luke’s status with Lorelai, played by Lauren Graham.
“We are together and we’re sort of figuring out our next step.”
The show aired from 2000 to 2007, but to Patterson, getting back together with the cast and crew felt like no time had passed.
“That came immediately, that’s never been an issue,” Patterson said.”That’s part of why the show is so successful I mean, [creator Amy Sherman-Palladino] cast the right people.”
What was an issue for Patterson was getting back into character.
“My first rehearsal, I just struggled – I was like, ‘I don’t feel this guy anymore,’ ” he remembers.
“My first rehearsal, I went to Amy and I said, ‘I don’t feel this, I got to walk around Stars Hollow. I gotta walk around the set and get the old feeling back.’ So I did. I took about a 10-minute walk, I went through the town and I got it. I felt ready.
And I came back in and rehearsed the scene and I thought, ‘I’ve got him."”
LUKE IS BACK!
One person missing from the reunion is Edward Hermann (who played Richard Gilmore).
Hermann passed away at age 71 two years ago, and Patterson says the loss is palpable both personally and professionally.
“Losing Ed, it left just a gaping hole and it was so tragic and so shocking to lose him,” Patterson shared.
“But as far as the storytelling was concerned, it really deepened the scripts and affected the tone of a lot of it – and especially our characters and how we related to one another.”
Patterson assured fans that the show will pay tribute to Hermann’s character in a beautiful way.
“On the first day on the Gilmore house set, there were some things there that nobody had seen before that we saw that were so moving, that we all kind of had to sit down,” Patterson explained, careful not to give too much away.
“Fans are going to be very touched by how Amy has shown her respect and paid her homage to him.”

We believe you, Amy.
