Lauren Graham Archives - Big Gay Picture Show

gilmore-girls-a-year-in-the-life For a while now Netflix has been bigging up the fact they’re bringing back Gilmore Girls for four new extended episodes. However, we haven’t known exactly when it would debut, and we haven’t seen any footage either.

That’s now changed, as Netflix has announced that all four episodes will be available on the streaming service worldwide from November 25th. It’ll be officially called Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life, with the individual 90-minute instalments titled Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. If you need to catch up with the original seven seasons of the show, they will be available on Netflix in the run up to the new stories.

They’ve also released the first footage from the revival, which starts off being slightly nostalgic for fans by reintroducing us to the various places around the fictional town of Stars Hollow.

Joel-McHale Community star Joel McHale is hoping to make a splash in the film world, as he’s moving up from supporting roles to starring with A Friggin’ Christmas Miracle, according to THR. Also up for the film are Lauren Graham and Robin Williams, working from a script by Wreck-It Ralph’s Phil Johnston.

Tristram Shapeero, who’s previously worked with McHale on Community, will direct the movie, which ‘follows Boyd Mitchler (McHale) and his wife Luann (Lauren Graham) as they spend a dreaded Christmas with Boyd’s father Mitch (Williams) and his family of misfits. Upon realising that he has left all of his son’s gifts at home, Boyd hits the road with his father and younger brother in an attempt to make the eight-hour round trip before sunrise.’

Hopefully it’ll be better than most Christmas movies. Shooting is set to begin in late March in Atlanta (which hopefully will look suitably Christmassy, even if it is Spring).
