Gilmore Girls Heartthrob Pops into Illinois Talk Show to Predict Rory’s Future

Whether you watched Gilmore Girls from the beginning or you kicked things into binge gear when 'A Year in the Life' premiered you know you want to hear where Rory is now. 

Way back in October 2000, a TV show debuted that ended up being one of the most popular shows of all time.

So much so that it was one of the first TV shows that got a reboot on a steaming service.

If you don't know, Gilmore Girls ran from 2000 until 2007, and surrounding Rory and her mom Lorelai as they navigated life.

As Rory grew up she met some boys, like most of us do and when the show came back around for that big Netflix reboot, the question was who did Rory end up with?

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life debuted in 2016 and well if you watched it, you know what happened.

I don't want to ruin it for you, but I will tell you I had the chance to interview one of Rory's boyfriends, Matt Czuchry, who also stars in 'The Resident' on FOX and he told me, at the end of our chat, where he thinks Rory is these days.

Are you a Gilmore Girls fan? What do you think about what Matt had to say?

I wasn't even that huge of a fan from the start but I would be sucked into another 'year in the life,' that was an excellently produced show.

Lorelai: Marty does the jar twirl before putting the salsa in the bag. Very impressive. Very Cocktail.

Cocktail is the 1988 film in which Tom Cruise plays a cocky New York bartender, who earns his popularity through flashy drink making performances such as twirling and juggling bottles.

 

 

  • Eve Harrington and Lon Chaney Jr.

Lorelai: Just as Marty, aka Eve Harrington, shows up trying to take Dean’s job, Taylor’s ladder mysteriously disappears, suddenly making Dean invaluable no matter what fancy tricks Lon Chaney Jr. over there pulls. Good thinking, Dean – smart thinking, my friend.

Eve Harrington was Anne Baxter’s character in the classic 1950s film All About Eve, who gets to maneuver her way into then steal for herself the life and career of Broadway star Margo Channing, played by Bette Davis.

Lon Chaney Jr. was a character actor whose career was mostly overshadowed by his more famous father, the silent film star Lon Chaney.

 

 

Lorelai: You chose The Yearling again?

Taylor: It is a fine, wholesome motion picture. Moving story, lovely scenes of nature.

The Yearling (1946) is a Technicolor family film drama directed by Clarence Brown, produced by Sidney Franklin, and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer about a 11-year-old young boy who adopts a trouble-making young deer.
