Even though it doesn't exist?

It's so pretty and sweet...

Although lorelei the elder is really bloody annoying

I'd love it for a week and then get a bit stabby.

InfiniteSheldon · 13/07/2017 22:25

I've just signed watched the whole lot having never seen an episode before. Whilst I loved it, really loved it I am a bit aghast at how badly they both behave. They are rude, demanding, cynical and downright nasty to the Grandmother. Lorelei trades on her beauty lying and cheating but oh god when Luke left her I sobbed so much, she was so heartbroken my dh threatened to ban me from watching it. The catchup series was Meh. I would love to live in Stars Hollow though all those fetes and town events!!

Want2beme · 13/07/2017 22:26

I'd like to live there too.

teaandakitkat · 13/07/2017 22:26

I want to live there too. I want to take part in every single one of the activities that go on, they are just crazy. I especially want to make a picnic basket and have all the handsome men fight over it.

Shall we meet for coffee at Luke's in the morning? 10ish?

MidnightAura · 13/07/2017 22:27

I'd love t live there but hate it in equal measure!

Brittbugs80 · 13/07/2017 22:27

I'd love to. Especially at Autumn when all the pumpkins are decorating the town. And when it snows.

And I love Lorelei's house.

TooStressyForMyOwnGood · 13/07/2017 22:27

Yes! I'll be there. I want to live there too Smile.

Brittbugs80 · 13/07/2017 22:28

And I'd love to go to a town meeting and to their cinema!

SabineUndine · 13/07/2017 22:30

I'm afraid YABU. You'd be living in the same town as Kirk and Taylor.

I mean, jeez!

You may enjoy browsing this website, OP Grin

WeShouldOpenABar · 13/07/2017 22:36

It's my dream to live there, my mother wants to live in Cabot cove though and I'm not sure what the driving distance is between two fictional towns, would christmas visits be a nightmare what with crossing realities

Sukebind · 13/07/2017 22:37

Yanbu. I would too. But spoiler alert needed - I haven't watched the whole thing yet (only on season 3!) so I wish I hadn't read one or two of the comments here!

Yes! Have seen that website!

You can't ask for spoiler warnings for a show that was broadcast over a decade ago!

OP YANBU - I'd love to live in Stars Hollow. Though I wouldn't be friends with Lorelai!

MidnightAura · 13/07/2017 22:50

theroot I'm slightly further ahead than you but only by a few episodes!

Somerville · 13/07/2017 22:53

Me too. Great for an all-American holiday. But not to live. Though there are a high proportion of very hot men in the vicinity, so if I were single I might think differently.

HashtagPenelope82 · 13/07/2017 22:56

Not unreasonable at all. I want to live there too!

WitchSharkadder · 13/07/2017 23:00

I've just discovered it too, I'm a few episodes into season 3.

I'd love to live in Stars Hollow too, all the town activities look amazing. Can I join you at Luke's in the morning? Order me pancakes if I'm late.

WitchSharkadder · 13/07/2017 23:03

I disagree about their attitude to Emiliy, InfiniteSheldon, I think she deserves it. She has no respect for her daughter's lifestyle choices or boundaries, she never listens to her and is an iterfereing busybody. She's get slated in a MIL thread on here.

LewisFan · 13/07/2017 23:04

I'm on season 7 for the third time. It's getting to be that I'm saying things just like Lorelai 😂 🤔

I would totally be her friend... and Sookie

I will have the Twickham house 😍

LewisFan · 13/07/2017 23:04

Lorelei would totally be on the Stately Homes thread too!

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 13/07/2017 23:05

I do live there in my head
