‘Gilmore Girls’ Star, Liz Torres, Used Advice From Lucille Ball When Playing Miss Patty, ‘the Writers Are Your Betters’
Liz Torres spent seven years playing Miss Patty on Gilmore Girls. While Torres had a ton of acting credits to her name, Miss Patty is the part that fans connect her with most often.

‘Gilmore Girls’ Guest Star Adam Shapiro Called His 1 Line Harder Than ‘a Scene With 50 Lines’ — Here’s Why
Gilmore Girls launched Adam Shapiro’s acting career. While in college, Shapiro did a walk-on role on The Andy Dick Show, but Gilmore Girls started his process of auditioning and landing roles.

‘Gilmore Girls’: The Reason Alex Lesman Didn’t Talk as Fast as Lorelai
Alex Lesman (Billy Burke) was one of Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham)’s boyfriends on Gilmore Girls. While it took four seasons for Lorelai and Luke (Scott Patterson) to finally date, Alex was the one man Patterson even liked for Lorelai.

Unpopular ‘Gilmore Girls’ Opinion: Luke and Lorelai Were Better as Friends

Unpopular ‘Gilmore Girls’ Opinion: Luke and Lorelai Were Better as Friends
Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore are largely considered the endgame couple of Gilmore Girls. The episode featuring their first kiss is the most highly-rated episode of the entire series. Fans have spent years discussing everything wrong with everyone else the duo dated. ‘While we don’t deny Luke and Lorelai had great chemistry leading up to their first kiss, we don’t necessarily know if they were right for each other long term. We think, perhaps, Luke and Lorelai were better off as friends.

Luke and Lorelai had completely different wants as a couple

While Luke and Lorelai had great chemistry as friends, they didn’t make a ton of sense when you look at them as a couple. Sure, the duo was attracted to each other and cared deeply about one another, but they didn’t have much else in common. Luke enjoyed camping and fishing, while Lorelai liked watching movies and town meetings.

‘Gilmore Girls’: 3 Off-Screen Storylines That We Would Have Loved to See Happen On-Screen
Gilmore Girls may have been mostly about the Gilmore family, but several other key characters factored heavily into the show. During its seven-season run, the series had a ton of different storylines featuring the main characters and the residents of Stars Hollow.

Every Gilmore Girls Character Who Got Arrested
