1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: I am all in again.

2
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 2: Oh let's kiss you. Hi am all in again with

3
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: Scott Patterson and iHeartRadio Podcast.

4
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: Hi everyone, this is Susanne. We're doing a quick episode

5
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: of Stars Hollow Journal Happy New Year from the Warner

6
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: Brothers Studio in beautiful downtown Bourbank. Well we're not downtown,

7
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: but beautiful Burbank, California. It's we're recording this. It's January,

8
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: first rainy day in Los Angeles. It was really raining

9
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: this morning on the parade. I felt bad for all

10
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: the marching bands. But we're getting a break right now.

11
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: It's cloudy but not raining, so hopefully that holds a

12
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: little bit. We're sitting here in the in Scott's trailer

13
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: away eating Scott's arrival for his daily visit to holidays

14
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: made here, which there's a ton of pictures on social media.

15
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: It's everybody's having a great time, including us. And yeah,

16
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: so we're just going to have a conversation here before

17
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: Scott gets here. So I'm sitting here with my husband

18
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: John Hello, and he's he's part of the team here.

19
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: That's just kind of helping with pictures and everything going

20
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: on with Scott's visits at the at the set, so

21
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 1: I thought it would be interesting to have a conversation

22
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: because one of the things that has struck me. I mean,

23
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: Gilmore Girls typically is geared to a female demographic across

24
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: multiple generations, but there's a lot of men that like

25
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: to watch it too, And I think a lot of

26
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: men kind of start out just seeing bits of it

27
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: here and there as their significant others are watching it,

28
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: but then they end up actually liking the show themselves.

29
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: Which I don't want to speak for you, so I'll

30
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: let I'll let you tell your story of Gilmore Girls.

31
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 3: Yes, that I think is true. I know I've seen

32
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 3: the show at least twice through. Now i'd say because

33
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 3: of you sounds a little harsh, but uh, I think

34
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 3: as a result of your fandom.

35
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: I would say that's accurate, because I do remember the

36
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: first time I watched it through and I was so

37
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: completely enamored of it. I was like, you need to

38
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: sit down and watch this with me because I'm immediately

39
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: rewatching it and you're gonna do it too.

40
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 3: So and I did.

41
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I enjoyed it.

42
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 3: I have enjoyed it. It's it's a fun show to watch.

43
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 3: All the characters are great, they're they're hysterical, they're moving there,

44
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 3: they're fun. Just to listen to the speech pattern. Everybody

45
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 3: talks about how it's so fast, and it is and

46
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 3: I don't know how they get through it. Yeah, I

47
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 3: would be stumbling over my words like crazy tr oh yeah.

48
00:02:59,160 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

49
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: Scott has talked about how it's just like pages and

50
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: pages of text. You know, usually a script has like

51
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: stage directions and things like that, so it you know,

52
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: the pages don't have a lot of actual dialogue on them.

53
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: But Gilmour, it was just paragraphs and paragraphs that they

54
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: had to learn.

55
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: That would be how they people do it.

56
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so yeah. John is is sort of at

57
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: the point in his Gilmore Girls evolution where he could

58
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: quote the show almost as well as I can, and

59
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: he actually pulls out quotes that I don't even remember,

60
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: and I'll see, what's that from. He's like, oh, it's

61
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: from Gilmore. Like he may not necessarily remember which episode

62
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: it was, but he knows he heard it somewhere, so he's, uh,

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: I know.

64
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: It's something parasit or something one of the other characters.

65
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: Necessarily I like to pull off like Kurt quotes and yes,

66
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 3: goofy things that you may not remember.

67
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So it's it's kind of cool, like because

68
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people that were meeting during the meet

69
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: and greets are talking about how I watched this with

70
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: my mom and my grandma and my daughter, and but

71
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: there's a lot of there's a lot of couples that

72
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: are watching it too, which I think doesn't get talked

73
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: about that often. But it's it's pretty cool, like everybody

74
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: can enjoy the show, and we are seeing here at

75
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: the event, we're seeing a lot of you know, spouses

76
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: or you know, boyfriends, whatever, partners that you know, they

77
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: want to get their own picture with Scott because they're

78
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: just as much a fan, you know, as whoever they

79
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: got dragged to the event with. So so yeah, it's

80
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: just been fun to watch. I think it may have

81
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: been talked about in a different episode, but there was

82
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: a social media video of I think it was the

83
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: first day, a whole group of men in plaid shirts

84
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: and backwards baseball caps that were waiting outside the women's

85
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: room for their for their friends to come or their

86
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: partners to come out, and it was just really funny

87
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: that there were all these lukes sitting there outside the

88
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: lady's room. So yeah, I think the character of Luke

89
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: specifically resonates with lot of people, like I don't see

90
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: I don't see any Jesses walking around or any max

91
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: Is certainly no Christopher's. But yeah, I think I think

92
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: that that people like the Luke character and everybody's you know,

93
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: happy to come in and uh take the picture with

94
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: Scott and and there was I was going to talk

95
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: about the rest room. So the restrooms. On the first day,

96
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 1: the lady's room had a huge line, which you know,

97
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: is we're all used to that. And so then the

98
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: next day they had converted the men's room to a

99
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: women's room and they brought in porta potties, so the

100
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: men had to use the porta potties.

101
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: Three outside for the men and now the women's rooms

102
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 3: two actual restrooms.

103
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so it works, And yeah it did cut

104
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: down the line.

105
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 3: I have no issues with that. Yeah, that was pretty.

106
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: Another thing that really has struck me just being at

107
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: the meet and greets is how like where people have

108
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: traveled from. We are meeting people from all over the

109
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: country and all over the world. And when I was

110
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: here the other day there Scott was talking to a

111
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: group that had come from Italy and the group of

112
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: people standing next to him was from Poland, Like, it

113
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: was just insane. And you met Elaine, you met people

114
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: yesterday from the UK. We've met people from Canada, Australia, Brazil.

115
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's amazing to me that this little show,

116
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, it was little at the time that it aired,

117
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: has just mushroomed into this giant global phenomenon. And you know,

118
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: people are coming from all literally all over the world

119
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: to see the set and to meet Scott and to

120
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: get their picture taken at the gazebo and go see

121
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: Laurelized house. And it's it's just it's amazing how people

122
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: have connectedly.

123
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 3: Incredible to see all these people that have told us

124
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: that they planned their trip around coming to this event. Yes,

125
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: it's not like they're doing this because they're already in

126
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 3: la right, this was the reason that they have come here.

127
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 3: And that's like mind blowing. Yeah, that's the pull of

128
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 3: the show, which is amazing.

129
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's it's and it's crazy. And I'm seeing

130
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: comments in some of the Facebook groups but also on

131
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: Instagram where people will post their pictures and then other

132
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: people will comment saying where is this happening? I need

133
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: to go to this, like they you know, the word

134
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: didn't get out to them or whatever, and they're they're saying, Okay,

135
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: we're doing this next year, and they're tagging their friends saying,

136
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: we have to do this next year. So it's it's

137
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: just it's really cool to to have this thing that

138
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: everybody is kind of bonding over, and it's it's very

139
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: fun to walk around stars Hollow in the backlot area

140
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: because everybody is happy to be there, and you know,

141
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: some things do have some lines, but but you line

142
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: up and the people that you're standing in front of

143
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: her standing behind you're all there for the same thing,

144
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: and you strike up conversations and you get to know people,

145
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: and it's just it's really cool. It's just a good phenomenon.

146
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 3: The whole town has done so well. Yes, it really

147
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: looks like what it did in the show, so you

148
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 3: feel immersed in it, right, and the shops are the same,

149
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: and they rebuilt Miss Patti's and then the tree lighting

150
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 3: and the lights of it. It's amazing to walk around.

151
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 3: It's beautiful at night to see everything lit up, and

152
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 3: people have described it as magical, and it really is.

153
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 3: It's amazing to walk around and see that. You got

154
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 3: to remember, you're not in a real town, right. This

155
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 3: is so well done that it almost looks you feel like, wow,

156
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 3: this is a really cool place. I wonder where I

157
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 3: can live here?

158
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And they've really expanded it this year.

159
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: So they have on the backside of what we know

160
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: as stars Hollow High, there's a row of stores back there,

161
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: and that's where stars Hollow Video is in the show.

162
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: That's where Western's Bakery is, and they've brought they've recreated

163
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: all of those, So I hope that when people are

164
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: here that and they walk into Weston's Bakery, I hope

165
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 1: they realize that's the actual room where they shot the

166
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: Western's Bakery scene. So you can like look around and think, oh,

167
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: that's where you know, Lauren and Alexis were sitting there

168
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: when they did this scene. And this is where Alexis

169
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: and Jared were sitting when they did that scene, and

170
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: they're yes, just the pie, see he just did it.

171
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about. So I hope they're appreciating

172
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 1: that that, like, these are the actual locations where our

173
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: favorite stars were sitting when those scenes happened, which is

174
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: crazy to me. To think about, and that's that's part

175
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: of the magic of being here at Warner Brothers is

176
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: this is where it all actually happened, Like these are

177
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: these are the streets that they walk down, and that's

178
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: the gazebo they sat in. And some things are recreated,

179
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: so like the dragonfly is not in the original building

180
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: because that building doesn't exist anymore and it wasn't even

181
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: on this lot anyways, it was down the street. But

182
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: so some things are recreations, but there are you know,

183
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: a lot of it is where the actual scenes took

184
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: place in the show. And for me, that's the coolest thing.

185
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: Like there's you know, various conventions and things all over

186
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: the country, and you know, if you listen to this podcast,

187
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: you know, Tara and I went to one back in

188
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: April that was in Connecticut and it was super fun,

189
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: Like it's it's really cool to be in a small

190
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: New England town that looks just like stars Hollow and

191
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: be with other Gilmore fans. That was a great experience.

192
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: But it's different to be here where it actually occurred,

193
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: even though it's not I mean, we're in la it's

194
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: it's not you know, New England, but it's i don't know.

195
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: To me, That's what I love about it is that

196
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: like this is where everything Like you can look at

197
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: the at your screen and be like, I want down

198
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: that street. I stood next to that fire hydrant. You know,

199
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: I got back, Yes, the coffee and luke Bar. Yeah,

200
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: And that's going back to the thing about Weston's. It's

201
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: Luke's is the same way, Like you get to go

202
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: inside Luke's and you're standing there looking around like you know, well,

203
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: like we were talking to a couple maybe last week sometime,

204
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: I was thinking about the Thanksgiving episode where they're sitting

205
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: there and you know, Laurel I takes the marshmallows off

206
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: of Luke's plate after she sends him to go get more,

207
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: and you know, this is where the four of that

208
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: this table right here is where the four of them

209
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: were sitting having their Thanksgiving dinner. And you know, thinking

210
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: of all the times that Laurel I and and Rory

211
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: were sitting at the bar and you know, having something

212
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: to eat or having some coffee or whatever like that

213
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: all happened like right in this location. And it's just

214
00:11:50,800 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 1: it's just really cool. So if you ever get the

215
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: chance to do this, I highly recommend it. And this

216
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: year the merchandise is off the hook, like there's a

217
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: crazy amount of merchandise and it's all super cool. And

218
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: I have basically just emptied my bank account into the

219
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: Warner Brothers bank account.

220
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 3: That is the truth.

221
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: And it's just really cool. And you know, all of

222
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: Scott's products are here. There's there's coffee, there's hot chocolate,

223
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: there's pancake mix, there's tea, there's jam it's all Scott's products.

224
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: And I will say the candy cane coffee. So we have,

225
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 1: you know the Christmas episode where they wouldn't serve Laurel

226
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: I candy cane coffee because it was December twenty sixth.

227
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: You can get candy cane coffee in Weston's Bakery today

228
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: and it's it's We actually went and bought more, like

229
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: I had a bag, but we went and bought more

230
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 1: because it is. It's really good.

231
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 3: And there's other those are flying off the shelves.

232
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: Yes, it's yeah, it's just going like gangbusters. They're Also

233
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: if you're in the LA area and you don't have

234

Speaker 1: tickets for the event the studio tour gift shop, you

235
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,720

236
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: walk in and shop to your heart's content. And they

237
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: have the coffees there as well. But so Elean, what

238
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: are the flavors. There's there's the candy Cane, there's tailors

239
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: in no ice cream, pecan, yes, Cozy Blend. Yeah, so

240
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: I have to try that one. I have a bag

241
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: of the whole being espresso. I have to give that

242
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:52,479
Speaker 1: one a shot. Locations, yeah, right, So the the merchandise

243
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: locations are kind of broken up by themes. So obviously

244
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: like stars Hollow Video, you can buy Stars Hollow Video

245
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: t shirts and magnets and things like that. The tea's

246
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: are available at the Dragonfly, and then outside of Lukes

247
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: there's a little stand where you can place your order.

248
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: You can buy the bags of coffee there, and then

249
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: there's more in Dosi's market, so they're kind of like

250
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: placed around. And then there's a larger store that's the Mercantile,

251
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: and that's where there's a ton of Luke's merchandise and

252
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: also like general Stars Hollow kind of things. And that

253
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: is if you think of Bootsy's news stand, that is

254
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: the building where Bootsy's news stand was. So the news

255
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: stand was actually just in front of the building. It

256
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: wasn't inside the building, but that's where the merchandise stores.

257
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: It was also just to go kind of off topic,

258
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: it was also the cafe in La La Land where

259
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: I can't remember the character's name where she worked, but

260
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: Emma Stone. Yeah. So anyways, so yeah, there's just really

261
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: a lot of ways to spend your money here today.

262
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 3: I think one of the just to kind of change

263
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 3: Topic's one of the fun things that they did this

264
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 3: year that I don't remember them doing before is that

265
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 3: they've hired actors to play different towns people. Yes, so

266
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 3: there's a Michelle, there's Suki, there's the Troubadour, there's different.

267
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: There's a Taylor and a Miss Patty.

268
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're in different spots playing those roles, and it's

269
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: really fun because it adds to the flavor of the town.

270
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you do a really good job of it too.

271
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: I think that was definitely a good ad because it

272
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: really does make it feel like stars hollow. They I

273
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: think everybody probably knows by now. They rebuilt Miss Patti's

274
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: just for this event, and then they have town meetings

275
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: going on I think every hour, every half hour something

276
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, and they're led by a Taylor and

277
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: Miss Patty, and clearly these actors, you know, watch the

278
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: show or at least parts of it to kind of

279
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: get in their role, because they really do a good

280
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: job of picking up those characters. And you know, on occasion,

281
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: Luke busts into a town meeting with a rant about

282
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: something and he and Taylor just play off of each

283
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: other like it's just it's so much fun to watch.

284
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: And there's you know, a lady sitting outside the knitting

285
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: store and if you ask her what she's doing, she says,

286
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: she's she's knitting. She's knitting hats for Lane's twins or

287
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: something like that. And there's a couple of different troubadours

288
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: I've seen. I've seen two different troubadours walking around the

289
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: Suki at the Dragonfly. She she is brilliant. She was

290
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: really channeling Suki. And then they even have the characters

291
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: at the in Dosie's Market when we were there, when

292
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 1: I was in there on the preview day, Taylor was

293
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: in there and you know, being Taylor, So yeah, it

294
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: was it was good. There's just they've put so much

295
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: creativity into it, and there's there's things, Oh, there's a

296
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: gypsy too. There's Gypsy over at the at the auto repair.

297
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: There's things I haven't even seen yet. There's like Richard

298
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: and Emily's they kind of recreated their dining room and

299
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: apparently there's one of Emily's maids is in there, so

300
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: we'll have to go check that out. But uh, yeah,

301
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: I just hats off to Warner Brothers. It's just been

302
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: such a fun experience and everybody, without fail, everyone that

303
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 1: works here is so nice and they're so helpful, and

304
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: it's it's I'm sure it's busy and stressful for them,

305
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: but you would never be able to tell that from

306
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,200
