90210 Success - Future for Gilmore Girls?
Micha
el Auseillo thinks that last night’s successful re-introduction of 90210 makes the possibility of Gilmore Girls coming back more likely!
In the latest Ask Ausiello post, a reader asked about the possibility of a Gilmore Girls movie, and what the news was. His response:
Ausiello: If I had a serious gambling problem, which I don’t (wink, wink), I’d wager my entire Smurf collection that the likelihood of a Gilmore movie hinges on how well 90210 performed last night in the ratings. See where I’m going with this?
Where’s he’s going is this - 90210 kicked butt in ratings! The CW was the #1 network last night, in terms of ratings for the 18-49 demographic, and 90210 scored the highest ever telecast of a scripted series for the network. It had about 4.9 million viewers across the 2-hour premiere
So, if this isn’t a HUGE message to the CW that Gilmore Girls has the potential in the future for a movie or a return of some sort, I don’t know what is! I think that, unlike 90210, Gilmore Girls does rely on its original cast and storyline. But every little positive factor will go a long way for us!
To read a full recap of 90210, check here, or tune in September 4th at 8pm on the CW for a repeat of the premiere!

Hi-
Important question is whether there is any follow through after the first week of curiosity driven viewers. To me a pale and boring imitation of the original, only Shenae, Lori, and Jessica S remotely interesting. And Robe Estes as a negligent father again, GMAB!!

i think the decision should be determined after next weeks veiwing.. i heard from soo many people that 90210 sucked! and that it was stupid.
so if 90210 does good.. then theres a bad chance of a GG movie? or the other way around?

I don’t know what you guys are making such a huge deal about! I’m just happy that after 1 year, 2 months, and 20 days, there might finally be a chance for a Gilmore girls movie! But, that is only if everyone from the cast and crew want to make a Gilmore girls movie! It is totally up to them.

Even if it were just a straight to dvd movie release I think it’d still do good. Any fan of the show who owns the series on dvd would buy it to see a proper conclusion and get their closure and also to complete the collection.
I don’t see what it has to do with the ratings for the new 90210. I used to love the original show, but for the little bit I saw of the premier, I’m just not that interested.
If they do decide to go ahead with a movie, I would hope that Amy Sherman-Palladino writes the script and directs/produces it. I’d really like to see it wrap up the way she imagined it would when she created the show.

I think what the 90210 rating have to do with Gilmore Girls is that since 90210 was a very liked show back with the orignal and it being brought back gained it alot of attention so a Gilmore Girls Movie could do the same?
For whatever reason it’s great news to hear that a Gilmore Girls Movie is seeming rather bright in it’s chances of happening. I really hope it does!

Why do they have to base the possibility of a Gilmore Girls movie on the rating of a completly different show form a totally different generation. Sounds pretty stupid. But still, if it is helping the chances of a GG movie then go 90210!

I agree, I think a ton of people would either go to see the GG movie, or buy it if it was only released as a DVD right away. We all became so invested in the plot and the characters and we deserve to see the show end the way it should. It seems like most if not all of the actors feel that way too, they deserve another shot at a better more resolved ending.

I hope so. Change that—It better be a great sign. I want this to happen. I have been watching for some kind of come back for the Gilmore Girls. The series finale did not suffice for me. I miss Scott Patterson, Lauren Graham, the beloved Alexis Bledel, and a hopeful (even a good 3-second) return of Milo Ventimiglia.

hey–just wanted to let u guys know what i have heard about the movie. i have a friend who also happens to be the love of my life, and she is really knowledgable on the gg info. apparently, the main motivation for the movie is that amy sherman pallemino didnt like how the series ended, and she wants to make the movie so she can leave her last 4 words. i am pretty sure that lauren and alexis are close to being on board, especially because they want to know how amy plans to end the story.
also, i agree, return of milo would be AMAZING.

omg…. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. we so need a proper ending. a two hour movie or a few more seasons it doesn’t matter as long as we finally see Lorelai walk down the isle to Luke and see Rory succeed in journalism and of course either pick from her very hunky exs Dean, JESS, or LOGAN!!!!

Since I’ll have the seven seasons soon, I hope I’ll have the 8, or the movie too. Imagine! You go to Amazon, and clic the movie, or the height! Or, you go to your email, and see a message: dvd on released, you go; an; their is the 8 or the movie! That may happen… That may happen…
