Transcript excerpt

I've always been the kind of person who falls in love with a great TV show, the ones that make you wish you could step through the screen and live inside that world. For me, that has always been Gilmore Girls. A small town, quick witted regulars, the feeling that everyone knows your coffee order. So it's a little surreal to realize I'm no longer just watching the show. I'm living it. And while every long running show starts with a great script, we stay season after season for the characters. The folks on Beekman Avenue are the best cast I could ask for, the ones who show up, who make an ordinary day feel like something out of a story. I used to think a town like Stars Hollow only existed on television. Now I run a shop in a town that feels like it belongs on a Hollywood backlot. And on that rare day off, when I wanna put myself back into the real Stars Hollow, I can now watch Gilmore Girls on Prime Video. But now when the credits roll, I get to step right back into my own village.
