Its a brief but perfect reunion and the gift we didnt know we needed.
We turn towards the warm comfort of nostalgia.
For many, that joy is found in the comfort of a beloved television series.

If that series for you isGilmore Girls, we have some good news for you.
No, its not another reboot or continuation of the series.
But it is a brief return to Stars Hollow for a few of the characters we all love.
Lorelai enters, and demands coffee in her usual sing-song manner as Luke hands her the gift from Walmart.
It’s about trying to make other people happy.
Thats the overall goal in even making a commercial.
We just want to give back.
I checked it all with Amy, the creator of the show.
I would be like, they want us to do this.
Do you think its okay?
I wanted to ensure she felt like it was right, Graham said.
Patterson said of the unwavering support, Yeah.
Its the ultimate escapist viewing.
I mean if you think about it.
Lorelai is escaping a, maybe abusive is too strong a word.
So thats a very powerful hook right there.
When she has to go back.
Its just very powerful storytelling underneath all of this fantastic humor and love and kindness and all of that.
I think thats why.
I think it pulls people in who arent maybe the demographic.
Just a couple of years ago I moved and my dad gave me a painting.
And he was like its time for you to have it.
I want you to have it for your house now.
That was just really thoughtful, Graham told us.
And I would shoot my sisters with missiles and giggle, Patterson said with a laugh.
Graham added that she finds the most joy during the holiday season in giving gifts.
I think its most fun giving to kids this time of year.
And thinking about what theyll get so excited about.
Just throwing that out into the universe.
