Speaker 1: I am all in. I am all in with Scott
Speaker 1: Patterson and I heart radio podcast. So now I guess
Speaker 1: we're gonna go to the to the Live Que and
Speaker 1: I think they're going to bring us all in, um,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna take We're gonna take fan questions. Uh.
Speaker 1: And this is one of my favorite things to do.
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna bring in a young lady named Brittany. Uh.
Speaker 1: And there she is. Hello, Brittany, how are you? Hello?
Speaker 1: How are you all pretty good? Thanks for joining us
Speaker 1: and decited to have you on. And where are you?
Speaker 1: Were you zooming in from Rodondo Beacha? Yeah, you're not
Speaker 1: You're not are You're not? Far? So tell us, tell
Speaker 1: us what is your question? So my question is for you, Scott. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm interested to hear what you'll have to say because
Speaker 1: you're in your storyline you came up for grants. Is
Speaker 1: there any Luke storyline that you wish you could have
Speaker 1: seen play out but never did? And that could be
Speaker 1: a storyline you've written for yourself in your head, or
Speaker 1: one that you've heard someone right for you but it
Speaker 1: was never filmed though I really, you know, I wanted
Speaker 1: to see the wedding play out in the in the episodes,
Speaker 1: I wanted a big town celebration. I just thought it
Speaker 1: was you know, even though it was so on the nose,
Speaker 1: and it was the obvious thing to do, I still
Speaker 1: and and and the Palatinos don't really like to go
Speaker 1: into those obvious places. They go big when they should
Speaker 1: go small, or feel they need to go small when
Speaker 1: things are calling for something big. And I like that
Speaker 1: about the writing um because it's an active But I thought,
Speaker 1: in that case, with the fans waiting so long for
Speaker 1: God's sake, let's just give him the full meal and
Speaker 1: make the four episodes about an honor. Of course you
Speaker 1: have to honor ed herman and remember him in the
Speaker 1: right way, but it could have all been sort of
Speaker 1: incorporated into this giant celebration of life and love and
Speaker 1: Luke and Laurel I and um uh. And it just
Speaker 1: I just was a little a little disappointed with that.
Speaker 1: But there's I think, still an opportunity to do it
Speaker 1: in the right way, the way that's going to satisfy
Speaker 1: the fans. I think the thing that the fans deserved
Speaker 1: in mind the people, that's what they want. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I just I just didn't get it and maybe this
Speaker 1: was just a set up for more episodes to come.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's been five years, so I think
Speaker 1: Sally wants to add something. Okay, yeah, I think she's
Speaker 1: Sally and in the in the in the front front row. Yes,
Speaker 1: he asked me the same question, and I would say
Speaker 1: that that I thought that Luke and Babette were going
Speaker 1: to have an affair and that would have been personally
Speaker 1: really fun for me fulfilling together. And well, thank you
Speaker 1: so much. You're very welcome, Brittany. Thanks thanks for joining
Speaker 1: us by Okay, okay, bye bye, Okay. So this is
Speaker 1: Heather High. Heather look so young. How are you doing?
Speaker 1: Are you? You look like you might be dressed as
Speaker 1: a character from a certain show. What would that be?
Speaker 1: I wonder, Oh, I might be. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: mean it's him, you know, gotta do it. It's not
Speaker 1: in my studio. So if I put a flannel on,
Speaker 1: I'll expire. I'm in Seattle, so it's perfect flannel weather.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm from. They invented flannel up there. It's
Speaker 1: plan I was going to attend, but I didn't have
Speaker 1: to praise. But anyway, how are you? And uh, what
Speaker 1: is what is your question? I'm great, Yeah, I do
Speaker 1: have a question and actually seen somebody are on This
Speaker 1: would be great to hear. But I was wondering if
Speaker 1: you could tell me a little bit about a day
Speaker 1: of shooting, like what happened like you when you would
Speaker 1: you arrive, like hair and makeup, the whole thing. And
Speaker 1: I was also wondering just like how that process went
Speaker 1: and then was it much longer and more involved for
Speaker 1: especially the women on the on the set, Emily, you
Speaker 1: want to take that since you haven't had a chance
Speaker 1: to speak yet. Okay, can you hear me? Yeah? Wow
Speaker 1: um oh for me, I didn't take any time at all.
Speaker 1: One time they looked at my hair and they said,
Speaker 1: oh you look fine. Go to set. So I did
Speaker 1: when I shot the when I shot the pilot, they said,
Speaker 1: Mrs Kim doesn't want makeup. They put me on with
Speaker 1: no makeup. I did not have one little stuck of
Speaker 1: powder on. Good thing christ Mrs Kids, yeah you take
Speaker 1: thank you. Emily. I had to put on my glasses.
Speaker 1: I thought you were Keiko, oh frank you Sally, And
Speaker 1: then I put on my glasses and I thought, well,
Speaker 1: there's just there's Emily and I'm I'm old and blind.
Speaker 1: That's all. My process was that I had to get
Speaker 1: up way too early to come to to set because
Speaker 1: I'm really a theater animal, and I and our theater
Speaker 1: hours are such that by the time you finish a
Speaker 1: play or a musical and you're you wait for your
Speaker 1: adrenaline to go back down, it's three in the morning
Speaker 1: before you go sleep. So I never go to sleep
Speaker 1: before two or three in the morning. And I have
Speaker 1: to be on the set at six in the morning
Speaker 1: in a makeup chair. Was just not working for me ever.
Speaker 1: And then and then you get made up, and it
Speaker 1: would be six in the morning, and then of course
Speaker 1: it's all looking really crusty by noon. And then they
Speaker 1: keep patching, they keep patching, right, yeah, um, you know,
Speaker 1: for me, it was pretty easy. Uh you know, I
Speaker 1: had I took the pants home. I didn't take the
Speaker 1: pants on, but I took more a hat so they
Speaker 1: didn't have to do any hair. They throw some powder
Speaker 1: up in the air, I'd run through it and then
Speaker 1: I'd be on the set. It take me five minutes,
Speaker 1: so I still had to be there early. But you know,
Speaker 1: as the years went on, I begged and pleaded like, hey,
Speaker 1: you know it doesn't it takes me two seconds to
Speaker 1: get ready to get on set. Don't call me in early.
Speaker 1: I can be there fifteen minutes before cameras roll and
Speaker 1: and they acquiesced. So it was nice. So um okay,
Speaker 1: so thank you, so very very very much, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. So we have next up as Kayla.
Speaker 1: Let's bring Kayla in. Hi, kay look, Hi, where are
Speaker 1: you zooming? Streaming in from perfect? I'm from Clovis, New Mexico. Clovis,
Speaker 1: New Mexico. Hello, Um, I'm from Clovised, New Mexico. Yes,
Speaker 1: and thanks for joining us. And what is your question? Okay,
Speaker 1: my question is for Scott. Did you a Lauren get
Speaker 1: along on set? I know there's been numerous rumors that
Speaker 1: you guys didn't get along. Oh that's that's that's nonsense. Um,
Speaker 1: you have to understand something when when you've got you know,
Speaker 1: there were a lot of very intense scenes between us,
Speaker 1: a lot of feelings that the characters were feeling going
Speaker 1: on between us for seven years to build up to
Speaker 1: the first kiss, then you know, the romance itself, and
Speaker 1: then the man. You know, that's those are intense feelings
Speaker 1: that actors have to conjure up um um in order
Speaker 1: to play the scenes. And you know, in the one
Speaker 1: on one scene means there's a lot of blocking issues,
Speaker 1: like if she she came into the diner, if we'd
Speaker 1: already been there for fourteen hours or twelve hours or
Speaker 1: what it was, and we're both exhausted or just you know,
Speaker 1: flying from coffee and crashing and that kind of the thing,
Speaker 1: and we're working with the director to block out a scene.
Speaker 1: Maybe we had a different vision of how the scenes
Speaker 1: should go. And that was the beauty of working on
Speaker 1: the shows. They let you kind of block your own scenes.
Speaker 1: At times, would would give you a a blueprint of
Speaker 1: what he felt. It was usually pretty right on, you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes it was you know, I had other ideas, she
Speaker 1: had other ideas, and it all kind of something. You know,
Speaker 1: sometimes you can there can be a little professional conflict,
Speaker 1: but it's not bad blood and it's not what you think.
Speaker 1: I think. The day that that there was some article
Speaker 1: that came out there some rumor started, was a day
Speaker 1: somebody was on set from a publication and there was
Speaker 1: a little back and forth between me, Lauren and the
Speaker 1: director and we didn't quite but that's i'men. You know,
Speaker 1: that's not anything out of the ordinary. So when you
Speaker 1: have you know, theater people in there going head to
Speaker 1: head wanting to make the best possible scene that you
Speaker 1: can possibly make, and you feel that isn't happening, then
Speaker 1: you're going to speak up, you know, because it's it's
Speaker 1: your butt up there on screen, uh, for eternity. So
Speaker 1: you want to make right, you want to make it great.
Speaker 1: So it's just like any other situation in any other
Speaker 1: job in existence. It's like, you know, the true professionals
Speaker 1: really want to get it right and they don't want
Speaker 1: to cut corners and they you know, it's like I'm
Speaker 1: you know, and actors can't, you know, really do things
Speaker 1: until they're feeling them. So if the blocking feels wrong
Speaker 1: and I'm not feeling it, you can't do it. So
Speaker 1: that's all it is. It's just two kind of type
Speaker 1: a's just just sort of maybe not agreeing sometimes, but
Speaker 1: it was all respectful and at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: I always came a way thinking that I had a
Speaker 1: wonderful scene partner in her. I think we made some
Speaker 1: great scenes together. You guys did definitely, Yeah, I couple that.
Speaker 1: I know, I didn't get along with Emily, and I
Speaker 1: asked to be and not be in any scenes with her.
Speaker 1: And I think I was only near her a couple
Speaker 1: of times in seven years, so that was good. And
Speaker 1: you got angry about that too, didn't She's a big
Speaker 1: fit Torres. They gave me such a hard time. I
Speaker 1: think if a publication showed up at the right time
Speaker 1: between any two people, you could come away with you know, oh,
Speaker 1: they didn't like each other. You know, Yeah, they'll make
Speaker 1: rumors about anybody just to get publicity. But right they
Speaker 1: want people clicking on their art, of their headline, you know,
Speaker 1: they want they want to create some because you know,
Speaker 1: they probably you know, most of the the reporters entertainment
Speaker 1: reports come on set and they probably get nauseated with
Speaker 1: how well everybody's getting. Is this place for real? Are
Speaker 1: these people really really like each other this much? I mean,
Speaker 1: let's start something up so I don't know. So there
Speaker 1: you go. Well I'm glad to know the truth. Thank you, guys. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you for your question. Thank you, and we can
Speaker 1: start rumor about the Jackson Grant feud. It's been going
Speaker 1: on for decades. Whose baby is it? It's really my baby. Yea,
Speaker 1: so we have Livy waiting in the wings to come on. Heretia, My,
Speaker 1: that's far Yeah, Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia. Here's what time, isn't there?
Speaker 1: It is quarter past one in the afternoon. So I'm
Speaker 1: in the middle of my work day, so don't really
Speaker 1: don't tell my work. Um, but I'm thrilled, thrilled to
Speaker 1: be here and now that I've actually got you all here,
Speaker 1: my question I think is going to be perfect for
Speaker 1: any one of you to answer. Um, it is actually
Speaker 1: how you guys thought or think stars Hollywood have coped
Speaker 1: throughout the pandemic, particularly in lockdowns, because I have my theory,
Speaker 1: but and it changes, but it has changed. But I'm
Speaker 1: really interested to hear from you guys. Jackson, you want
Speaker 1: to take that. I think I think we would have
Speaker 1: sent each other notes by cats. We would just would
Speaker 1: have just taped things to cat, take notes to cats
Speaker 1: and send messages back and forth by cats. I think
Speaker 1: that would have happened. Um, I don't know. They wouldn't
Speaker 1: done something very quirky, wouldn't they. It would be Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can I can see a scene where yeah, we're bad,
Speaker 1: and you know where Sally and Liz are just six
Speaker 1: ft apart and just stell yelling at each other from
Speaker 1: six ft apart, and so we just take the mask
Speaker 1: off and say I hate the stupid thing, and I
Speaker 1: can see it very clearly. I think miss Patty, Miss
Speaker 1: Patty would have just gone nuts because she's such an extrovert.
Speaker 1: But I think Laura, I I just don't think, I
Speaker 1: mean it's Rory would have been fine, Scott, Scott, Luke
Speaker 1: would have loved it. He would have been in his element, like,
Speaker 1: here's your takeaway. I can serve you take away through
Speaker 1: a window, but you're not coming into my dinner. There
Speaker 1: would have been a town meeting Taylor at the podium.
Speaker 1: He would just be standing there and there would be
Speaker 1: an empty at the place would just be empty. He
Speaker 1: would do it by zoom though, and still go through
Speaker 1: the whole thing for an hour. He would do it.
Speaker 1: But Scott, you were saying, I don't I don't agree
Speaker 1: with that. I don't think Luke would have worn a mask,
Speaker 1: and I think to know, but he would have loved
Speaker 1: not being not having people come into his dinner. I
Speaker 1: think he would have been very happy to until until
Speaker 1: he had to pay the rent. Could have liked a
Speaker 1: had a window where people could have come and quickly
Speaker 1: got their food and ran out again. Here's what I
Speaker 1: think would have happened if that was a storyline. I
Speaker 1: think that Amy and Dan would have come up with
Speaker 1: a poster. Just like no cell phone, it would have
Speaker 1: been no mask. Maybe I think Luke, even though it
Speaker 1: seems like Luke didn't like people, I think he liked people.
Speaker 1: He just couldn't admit it to himself or anyone else.
Speaker 1: Looks a big softy. Come on, he is. He's big softy,
Speaker 1: don't you think. Don't you think? Scott? It was a
Speaker 1: big softy with a with a criggly outside. Very strange
Speaker 1: cat for sure. That's a strange, tight cat right there.
Speaker 1: And Scott, how do you think Laurel I would have
Speaker 1: coached with in lockdown the pandemic? Yeah? Wow? How do
Speaker 1: I think she would have coped? Um? You know what,
Speaker 1: they're in Connecticut right, so small town Connecticut. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't know. I I think she would have. Well,
Speaker 1: she's running a business, right, so she's gotta it's locked down,
Speaker 1: so the so so the business is like not not going. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I just don't see any
Speaker 1: of these characters, uh, complying, I think, and I think
Speaker 1: that's the beauty of the town. It's like it's maskless,
Speaker 1: we're not we're not doing this. It would have been
Speaker 1: the first town with a hunt of percent vaccination rate. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I agree with that, I really do. I thought on Jackson, Jackson,
Speaker 1: you think it would have been the first town with
Speaker 1: a vaccination because everybody to get back to the Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I thinkvaccinations about community, and I think Stars Hollow
Speaker 1: is just one big family. Well, I think that's right
Speaker 1: if you read the actual book. I think, um, I
Speaker 1: think everybody actually is related. Right, that's a that's a fact.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that. I'd love to know how lucan. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I I think that Maury would have refused to get
Speaker 1: vaccinated and bad vaccinated, and so that's why she went
Speaker 1: on and had an affair with Luke. Right, I got you.
Speaker 1: We're starting some fan fiction here. Oh my goodness, thank
Speaker 1: you for answering my Kelly questioned, been talking to you
Speaker 1: because you're all gonna be on the other side of
Speaker 1: the arts. Yeah, it's been so much fun. I'm really
Speaker 1: really enjoying watching after so many years because I watched it.
Speaker 1: We you know, I was binging the DVDs when binging
Speaker 1: wasn't even a thing. My best friend and I would
Speaker 1: sit in a pajamas and eat junk food and we
Speaker 1: would watch Gilmore Girls, and we'd have what we just
Speaker 1: called marathon sessions. And now they called binging sessions. And
Speaker 1: you know, this is a long, long, twenty years ago.
Speaker 1: So really enjoying getting back into it. Well that's so thanks.
Speaker 1: Thanks for your questions. Thank you, it was lovely. Thank
Speaker 1: you so much, by thanks, thanks so much. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: all right, so let's uh, let's answer a few questions
Speaker 1: that listeners are submitting live right now. And Riley. Riley
Speaker 1: has a question for Jackson. Do you actually like vegetables
Speaker 1: and fruits? Uh? Well, this is getting right to the
Speaker 1: hard I know it really is right to the matter
Speaker 1: going yes, but but I'm very picky. I probably wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I I don't. I wouldn't eat the same variety that
Speaker 1: Jackson on the show. Would I like the what I
Speaker 1: and I like them? Simple? You know, a RAS squad.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would eat it. Zucchi, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I doubt it, But all that genetic you know,
Speaker 1: hybrid stuff, But yeah, I do, I do. I don't
Speaker 1: need enough of them, but yeah I don't hate them,
Speaker 1: right right right? Um, spinach, spinach, broccoli, broccoli. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: even have a kale smoothie in the morning. I will
Speaker 1: put kale in it and put everything else into an apple,
Speaker 1: a pair or anything to get rid of the kale taste.
Speaker 1: But yeah, all right, Well that's okay. So now here's
Speaker 1: a question for Emily. Uh Lindsay is asking what do
Speaker 1: you think was Mrs Kim's best quality? I think she
Speaker 1: could love unconditionally. I think that was her best quality.
Speaker 1: There you have it. There you have it. There you
Speaker 1: have it. And one hell of a negotiator too. Huh
Speaker 1: oh yeah, oh my god, that scene with with with
Speaker 1: Emily with Emily was just fantastic. Um okay, Grant, here's
Speaker 1: a question for you from summer. Okay, some do you,
Speaker 1: I mean, Grant, do you have a favorite song you
Speaker 1: sang on the show? Oh? Wow? Um goodness, Well I
Speaker 1: sang quite a few of my my own songs on
Speaker 1: the show, you know. Um. I think the one that
Speaker 1: really kind of tickled me the most was was when
Speaker 1: I was asked to sing wake Me up before you
Speaker 1: go go not part of my normal repertoire, you know.
Speaker 1: So I had to learn at least the first, maybe
Speaker 1: the chorus of it um so that that's the one
Speaker 1: that sticks with me. You know a few of those
Speaker 1: cover songs. Yeah, do you still remember? Can you play
Speaker 1: bart um? Wig me up before you go goo? I'm
Speaker 1: not playing it on goon, so wig me up before
Speaker 1: you go go cut. I had to know, you know,
Speaker 1: in that amount of time, I had to walk across
Speaker 1: the street, jump over a fire hydrant, scale a wall,
Speaker 1: like you know, a lot of things happened in a
Speaker 1: few bars. That that's that's acting though, right a, right,
Speaker 1: here's uh, here's Marie. Marie wants to know. And this
Speaker 1: is for each of us, guys. Um and we're gonna
Speaker 1: start with uh, We'll start with Jackson. Who is your
Speaker 1: favorite character in Stars Hollow me? Thank you, Grant, But
Speaker 1: I would agree, yeah, jack yourself? Yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it kept it kept changing, Okay, I have to say, uh,
Speaker 1: it would have been laurelized mother Emily Gil. It was
Speaker 1: just such a pistol and a and a and a
Speaker 1: woman who speaks her mind, which I've always been afraid
Speaker 1: to do in my life. Yeah, she was. I mean,
Speaker 1: Emily was just absolutely exquisitely portrayed and such a fun,
Speaker 1: wonderful character. It's really hard to narrow down what a favorite,
Speaker 1: you know, a favorite. I hate. I hate doing favorites,
Speaker 1: you know. But there's somebody who used to who would
Speaker 1: make me laugh every time he would even just be
Speaker 1: standing there off camera waiting to go on. It would
Speaker 1: make me laugh at Taylor. I think was just I
Speaker 1: always could laugh at everything he did. I don't know why,
Speaker 1: so he just always tickled me. You know, it's for me,
Speaker 1: it's yeah, I mean, I I share the same sentiments.
Speaker 1: Tough to pick um, so I'll narrow it down the two, um,
Speaker 1: Lauren and Alexis. And I'm you know, as I'm watching
Speaker 1: these episodes, it's just, you know, I'm I'm just seeing
Speaker 1: how so incredibly sweet and vulnerable Alexis was in that portrayal,
Speaker 1: and it just for me. It just took enormous courage
Speaker 1: for I mean to portray something like that. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's and that's I guess naturally how she is. But
Speaker 1: I'm just I was very surprised at how naturally gifted
Speaker 1: an actress she was, and how easy she was with it,
Speaker 1: Um and Lauren obviously for for for for you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, what can you say. I mean she had
Speaker 1: to carry that show, and um, I mean that that
Speaker 1: schedule would have killed your average or you're a strong man,
Speaker 1: and she just bowled her way through those days like
Speaker 1: you with real class. And then just that certainly was
Speaker 1: impressive to watch it. It was impressive because it was
Speaker 1: just scene after scene after scene after scene after scene
Speaker 1: after scene after scene every single day. Right, I mean
Speaker 1: I'm blowing, you know, three to three, four to five
Speaker 1: days a week sometimes right, not a lot, but but
Speaker 1: I'm working with her most of the time. And okay, Scott,
Speaker 1: you know, we we shoot for a couple of hours
Speaker 1: and then she'd have four scenes, and then I come
Speaker 1: back and we shoot for another couple of hours. We
Speaker 1: had four more scenes, and I mean it was just like,
Speaker 1: I don't know how she did it. I really don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know either. I don't know how you learn
Speaker 1: all those lines. I mean said huge amounts of dialogue
Speaker 1: every day, pages and pages. I would see. It wasn't
Speaker 1: impommon to receive like a new draft of the script,
Speaker 1: right like that, that varied the night before, as you
Speaker 1: slept or as you arrived onstead right, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so let's bring on Laura. Laura is waiting here. She is, Hi, Laura.
Speaker 1: How are you doing where you could where you're streaming
Speaker 1: in from. I'm good. I am streaming in from Flavonia, Michigan,

Speaker 1: it's rainy today, rainy, not quite winter yet, but getting close.
Speaker 1: All right? Yea, well, welcome, thanks for coming on. And
Speaker 1: what is your question? My question is, um, I was
Speaker 1: wondering how many flannel shirts do you think Luke's owned?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, how many flannel shirts could Luke on?
Speaker 1: I think, you know, in seven. I don't know they
Speaker 1: did a whole you know, people count these things, people
Speaker 1: in the media, they count them up. So I'm sure
Speaker 1: there's a number. I don't I'm not aware of the number.
Speaker 1: I know how many wardrobe fittings I did multiple times
Speaker 1: a year with you know, flannels, each time, three times
Speaker 1: a year, so I probably did fittings. Um, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think he owned the final shirts probably five to
Speaker 1: ten on Avery, how many threat? How many shirts to
Speaker 1: Luke be wearing at a time on average, are be like,
Speaker 1: how many to really an undershirt? And uh yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: what about the overcoat? What about the fatigue the green
Speaker 1: I'm counting three, at least three layers? Three? Never did
Speaker 1: that eighties thing with the flannels where you wore like,
Speaker 1: you know, when they would wear two polo shirts and
Speaker 1: you'd pop the collar on one of them. Do you
Speaker 1: think he ever did that with a flannel or two
Speaker 1: flannels and just have one popping out from the other one.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, stick band and stole your look.
Speaker 1: There's what I'm saying. Thank you, um uh so, thank you,

Speaker 1: There heard of duck pin bowling. I have heard of it, Yes,
Speaker 1: only in Indiana. You couldn't make didn't. I don't even
Speaker 1: know what that is. It's like smaller bowling ball, smaller pins. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: why duck doesn't have to do with ducks because they
Speaker 1: because they look like little ducks. Alright, alright, yeah, they
Speaker 1: don't look like big bowling pins. They look like little ducks, alright.
Speaker 1: But as it's a different it's like a Bocci ball
Speaker 1: size bowling ball, just like is it like four ft

Speaker 1: one and walked it off once in my rented bowling
Speaker 1: shoes and it was exactly. Um, what what is your question, Brittany?
Speaker 1: And if we could so, my question is for any
Speaker 1: of you to answer. Um. So it is, what was
Speaker 1: one thing that shocked you about Gilmore Girls that you
Speaker 1: didn't expect? And this could be anything from what happened
Speaker 1: behind the scenes or just day by day shooting of
Speaker 1: Gilmore Girls, or just anything that comes to mind. What
Speaker 1: shocked me was that Amy Sherman Palladino, Uh is it?
Speaker 1: This isn't the shocking part. That she's an incredible writer,
Speaker 1: and that her writing idol is Dorothy Parker. But what
Speaker 1: shocked me was that she wrote scripts that were I
Speaker 1: don't know, eight nine, ten pages longer than a normal
Speaker 1: one hour television show, and rather than cut her brilliant words,
Speaker 1: we were all just told to talk to and all
Speaker 1: talked really fast on the show. And I didn't know
Speaker 1: what had become a habit until I went to Ogunquote,
Speaker 1: Maine to their theater there to do uh Fiddler on
Speaker 1: the Roof, and I played gold Tabia's wife, and the
Speaker 1: director came to me at the end of the first
Speaker 1: day rehearsal and he said, why are you talking so fast?
Speaker 1: He says, yes, you are. You're talking so fast. I said,
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. And he said, well,
Speaker 1: go home and think about it, because you can't talk
Speaker 1: that fast when you play Golda. And I came back
Speaker 1: the next day and it's I said, I'm like Gilmore girls,
Speaker 1: we have to talk fast. I said, to get all
Speaker 1: the Amy Sherman's Paladino's dialogue in I Will talk slower
Speaker 1: as I play gold Apart. That's right. You're probably right
Speaker 1: that the most shocking thing is how many trees had
Speaker 1: to die for the amount of scripts that we had. Wow,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, you know, the same thing happened
Speaker 1: to me because they did a series right after Gilmore
Speaker 1: and I was talking so fast and it was a
Speaker 1: com it was not a sitcom. It was a single
Speaker 1: camera comedy. And I was talking so fast all the time,
Speaker 1: you know, the the showrunners saying why are you talking something?
Speaker 1: And then it went to the next series in two
Speaker 1: thousands time, another series. I was talking so fast all
Speaker 1: the time. I just I quitted talking for us with
Speaker 1: acting from and he took some like retraining myself, just
Speaker 1: a calm down anyway, Jackson, what would I think that? Well,
Speaker 1: I think how long the scripts were, But how fast
Speaker 1: Lauren could actually talk. I think that's probably the most
Speaker 1: shocking that she could actually she could talk faster than
Speaker 1: anybody on the show. And it was, you know, it
Speaker 1: almost felt Yeah. And make it sound natural, yeah, And
Speaker 1: make it sound like she's actually just saying it, not
Speaker 1: I mean you know that she's just thinking it as
Speaker 1: she's saying it. But um, yeah, I don't know. That's
Speaker 1: hard to think of anything else. I don't know. What
Speaker 1: was also was that the show was a hit. You know,
Speaker 1: people told me when I was in my twenties and
Speaker 1: on All the Family, Oh, it's a shame that you're
Speaker 1: on something so popular because the rest of your career
Speaker 1: will be downhill. And thanks. That's a thing to say.
Speaker 1: It's a huge hit. And I was the first one
Speaker 1: to say, oh my god, I've gotten the breast ring
Speaker 1: while I'm writing the Paris Le twice? Now, how did
Speaker 1: this happen? I was shocked became such a cult favorite.
Speaker 1: That's true. Lightning never strikes twice, and it did with you,
Speaker 1: with All the Family and Gilmore girls. Yeah, I can
Speaker 1: die right now and it'd be fine. I love everything
Speaker 1: that you are in. Oh my goodness, that's Sally. Everything
Speaker 1: that you're in is so so good. Thank you, gret me.
Speaker 1: It was I think what was shocking to be this
Speaker 1: was like this is off camera. Is that when I
Speaker 1: you know, I went to Barcelona and lived there for
Speaker 1: a few years. But the first day when we landed
Speaker 1: and we arrived and we were picking up our luggage
Speaker 1: at the carousel. I got recognized in the airport in Barcelona.
Speaker 1: I think that's shocking. So how many people it reached,
Speaker 1: you know, in so many different countries. Uh, you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's on that traveling, you know, because I a tour
Speaker 1: quite a bit, you know, go go on the road
Speaker 1: with the guitar, and always meeting new fans of the
Speaker 1: of the Gilmore Girls wherever I go. So great, I
Speaker 1: would say. The thing that shocked me the most was
Speaker 1: that we were never nominated for major awards in the
Speaker 1: entire seven years. That was the shocking that was. And
Speaker 1: now that I'm watching the show for the first time,
Speaker 1: I'm even more shocked because I know the work that
Speaker 1: we did while we were there. I knew the quality
Speaker 1: of it while we were shooting it. I didn't have
Speaker 1: to see the episodes to know that it was special,
Speaker 1: because I you know, I had some experience coming into
Speaker 1: that um. But now that I'm watching it, it's I'm
Speaker 1: just completely mystified by how, you know, whatever academies and
Speaker 1: committees or whatever just sitting not No, I can't fathom
Speaker 1: that because not a real network, we don't you know,
Speaker 1: I will show and it's real characters and and there
Speaker 1: was nothing on television like it. There still isn't anything
Speaker 1: on television like there, never will be anything on television
Speaker 1: like it. And the fact that it wasn't recognized, um is,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just I think that needs to
Speaker 1: be corrected. Actually right, I hadn't thought about that, but
Speaker 1: that is shocking. And you're right, and I bitter. You
Speaker 1: were better before, Sally claim that just now, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're gonna start to be better and do
Speaker 1: not talk about my dirty laundry. I was going to say,
Speaker 1: an I pod Well, Brittany, thank you so much. You
Speaker 1: were fun, great question, and uh and thanks for coming on.
Speaker 1: We really really appreciate it. Okay, thank you, all right,
