About this product

Product Information

This award-winning WB series is an intelligent, heartfelt drama about a mother and daughter navigating their turbulent world together, as both best friends and family members. Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham, BAD SANTA) is a young, attractive single mum living in idyllic Stars Hollow, CT, and her high-school daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel, SIN CITY) is her closest confidant. The two share an independent spirit, a taste for literature, and gorgeous blue eyes. Lorelai had made a break with her conservative, old-money parents, Emily (Kelly Bishop, DIRTY DANCING) and Richard (Edward Herrmann, THE AVIATOR), when at a very young age she decided to keep her baby when she became unexpectedly pregnant. Since then she has been forced to turn to them for financial help with raising Rory, and a tenuous peace has been restored. Mother and daughter are essentially growing up together, supporting each other through relationship difficulties, college worries, and life in general. In the fourth season Lorelai manages to have an affair with her father's partner while also opening the Dragonfly Inn; Rory starts college but can't seem to meet the right guy; and Sookie, Lane, and Kirk all experience various ups and downs in love and life. It all adds up to some gripping television which contains laughter and drama in equal measures, and a fanbase who hang on the every word and movement of each cast member.

Additional InformationReturning home to Stars Hollow after a whirlwind European trip at the outset of GILMORE GIRLS' fourth series, single mum Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) is informed that her business partner, Sookie St. James (Melissa McCarthy), is pregnant, while Lorelai's daughter, Rory (Alexis Bledel), prepares for her first year at Yale University. Arriving on campus, Rory meets her new roommates: 15-year-old prodigy Tanna (Olivia Hack), sports jock Janet (Katie Walder), and--surprise, surprise--Rory's former prep-school nemesis Paris Geller (Liza Weil). Perhaps inevitably, Rory will become so involved in her roomies' trials and tribulations that she will begin neglecting her schoolwork. Back at home, Lorelai and Sookie encounter a number of formidable roadblocks, legal and otherwise, in their efforts to open their new bed-and-breakfast, the Dragonfly Inn; and Rory's friend Lane Kim (Keiko Agena) has severed all ties with her uncompromisingly traditionalist Korean mother by launching a career as a rock singer. In other series four developments, Lorelai's close friendship with cafe owner Luke (Scott Patterson) is threatened by events that had occurred during his summer vacation; Sookie and her husband, Jackson (Jackson Douglas), nervously prepare for a 'home birth'; Rory and Paris vie for the attentions of their professor, Asher Fleming (Michael York); Rory's troublesome grandma, Trix Gilmore (Marion Ross), suddenly dies; and as for Rory's high-school beaux, Jess (Milo Ventimiglia) tries to rekindle their romance, while Dean (Jared Padalecki) gets married to Lindsay Lister (Arielle Kebbel) on the rebound. The series ends with the grand opening of the Dragonfly Inn, yet another breakup between Rory and Jess, a disturbing turn of events concerning Rory and Dean, a hint of divorce in the offing for Lorelei's parents--and a distinct deepening of the relationship between Lorelai and the newly divorced Luke.
