Spoilers and Spoiler Speculation: Benchmarking

They need to bring in more family members again. Alex's sister should be introduced. Bring back Thatcher. Show us Maggie's parents. -
Netflix Revival: Spoilers and Speculation
stopthestatic replied to JayInChicago's topic in Gilmore Girls
Does anyone know how early Netflix usually starts teasing/promoting their shows? It feels a bit early for a teaser poster if it's coming out late this year or early next year. -
Sad about SaRa but saw it coming weeks ago. I'm hoping they'll bring her back early next season for an episode, just for a proper goodbye, if anything. I'm confused by the wording of both her and Shonda's statements though. "Time off" implies she might be back. Is it possible she's leaving to do something on Broadway and will make a return once that wraps up?? I hate to say it but I really did love this episode wholeheartedly. The sister scenes were just so much fun - proof that you don't need disaster and death to make the show enjoyable. This is what I want to see more of...compelling character and character-dynamic stories, with respect and honour given to the history of the show and its past characters/relationships. That opening scene with Alex and Meredith felt particularly heavy to me emotionally. The entire theme of "is there just one true love?" also felt like a meta commentary on the show itself, which has now split up basically all of their big MFEO couples - MerDer, Calzona, Izzex, Crowen. It felt like the perfect conversation for the show to be having as they head into next season. And speaking as someone who was livid when they killed Derek off, it really did get me thinking - maybe there is more than one love for everyone and maybe Meredith will have another great love. Ellen and Martin's chemistry was definitely present in this episode. At least I felt it. Obviously nothing can beat what Ellen and Patrick had, but I'm rooting for them. And that final scene with Maggie was the cherry on top, I think it'll lead to some really fun stuff for Ellen and Kelly (I still think they didn't explore their sister relationship enough before just jumping into it, I'll be glad to see some conflict between them). This season and this finale fixed a lot of the wounds left over from season 11 for me. As someone who has watched from the pilot and complained about the show relentlessly, I think this season was a huge step up and I'm excited for season 13.

What if they pull a switcharoo and have Maggie and Nathan hook up and Meredith and Andrew. That would be so weird. Meredith as a cougar. -

From everything we've heard, including how much Milo filmed and how much Matt (and Alan/Nick/Tanc) are filming *especially* for 'Fall', I'm suspecting a Rory/Logan endgame. -

The Jo thing is probably that she's been applying for fellowships at other places. Really curious about the church scenes though. -

12x24 is apparently called "Family Affair", directed by Debbie Allen. -

Does anyone hate the new location they use for the exteriors of the hospital? It looks nothing like it has the past 11 seasons. -
I think Canning's scene at the end was the ultimate foreshadowing for the ending - they'll pull a switcharoo and Alicia will somehow end up going to jail in the series finale.

I find it weird that Bootsy is back, especially because he was only in season 2 of the show. I'm glad Alex Borstein is back, and I almost feel like she'll be playing a brand new character again. Odd that Sherilyn Fenn/Anna isn't coming back, I really thought they'd bring her back. And Liz/TJ not being there feels really strange to me because of how much they were in season 6. -

I don't think TJ is in it. Wayne Wilcox (Marty) wasn't invited back either and he very much feels like a part of the GG family (the Palladinos love him, etc). Wish he was coming back esp. after his awful story in S7. -

The "cliffhanger" thing re: the final four words makes me think that Rory telling Lorelai she's pregnant is a likely final scene. -

Seasons 1-3: Year 1 Seasons 4-5: Year 2 Season 6: Year 3 Season 7: Year 4 Season 8: Year 5 Season 9: Year 6 Season 10: Year 7 Season 11: Year 8 Time Jump: Year 9 Season 12: Year 10 I'm still curious if they're gonna write in Stephanie and Jo taking their Boards at the end of this season or if they've lost track of what year they're in. -

Don't know why but I still get the feeling that SaRa is exiting at the end of this season. I hope I'm wrong though because I do love Callie and I miss Calzona. Wish they'd announce the contracts so we can just know once and for all... -

Again, would be inclined to agree if MC wasn't in multiple episodes with the LDB and Mitchum making appearances as well. Dean and Jess are easily explained. They both have family in Stars Hollow. I just don't know how Logan's circle fits into this story 8 years later. -

Well you're setting yourself up for disappointment. She isn't in it. Kathleen might've simply been implying that the reasons are different because MM is a huge star though. Clearly that's not an issue with her. And I only mention Liz and TJ because a) there's other characters who are appearing in the revival that are much less significant and prominent than them and b) with the amount they were used in ASP's last season it's just odd she wouldn't bring them back. They had a surprising amount of screentime in season 6. Lucy and Olivia would never be back. Amy and Dan didn't create those characters. But they did create Marty and they loved WW, so it's odd he wouldn't even have a cameo. -

They don't look very much alike...however, it looks like they're shooting on a non-hospital set so it doesn't look like she's playing a patient. There is also this so it would be a cool thing if she actually did appear. -

I would be inclined to agree except so many of the characters that have been announced to be returning don't fit into the same world/storylines at all. Having Logan, Dean and Jess all in one episode feels super unrealistic and strange. -

I just can't believe that DIGGER is back but Marty, Liz and TJ aren't. What? -

stopthestatic replied to stopthestatic's topic in Gilmore Girls
Yeah, I actually find it really strange that Digger is coming back, yet Liz and TJ aren't...especially given how frequently they appeared in season 6. Melissa is a different story, to me at least. -

Chris Eigeman being back (like what??) really makes me think the Tristin character IS the Tristin from Chilton. They seem to be bringing back every single character ever on the show........ -

Casting news: 1) Stacey Oristano (Truly from Bunheads) is in the revival. 2) Chris Eigeman (Jason/Digger) is back too...wtf. They really are bringing everyone back. -

Grey's will be at 338 episodes at the end of it's 15th season, should each season continue to have 24 episodes... Shonda DID once flat out say she wanted to beat ER. I'm having a hard time finding it now but I will continue looking.
