Rory's Baby Daddy Reveal Actually Makes the 'Gilmore Girls' Revival Worse

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life is set nearly a decade after the finale of the original Gilmore Girls series. A lot has changed, and a lot has stayed the same. While the lovely town of Stars Hollow and its eccentric inhabitants are no different from the original series, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory Gilmore (Alexis Bledel) find themselves at a crossroads. Now that they are ten years older, they must learn to navigate a new era in their lives. By the end of the miniseries, Lorelai and Rory are wiser and vastly more grateful for the lives they have and the people in them. But they are still the lovable, relatable, and witty characters we loved during the show's original run. However, just as Lorelai and Rory embrace the changes that come with growth, Rory announces she is pregnant in the last few seconds of the miniseries.
