An iconic caffeinated mother-daughter duo reunited at the Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday evening.
Actresses Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel of “Gilmore Girls” served as presenters at the ceremony, which took place at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
They appeared on the stage, standing upon the famous porch of their fictional Stars Hollow home.
“Twenty-five years ago, a show called ‘Gilmore Girls’ premiered and, apparently, took the season of fall hostage,” Graham joked, since that’s the season the show’s been synonymous with.
“In spite of our autumnal dominance, ‘Gilmore’ was actually a very small show, meaning we had no money,” Bledel chimed in.
“If there was a birthday at ‘The Drew Carey Show’ next door, they would send us their leftover sheetcake,” Graham said.
“We saved up all year long to have one snow episode,” Bledel said.
“And then ‘ER’ would wet down their street and wash it all away,” Graham quipped. Bledel told he,r “you have got to let that go.”
“They had (George) Clooney! They could’ve let us have the damn snow,” Graham clapped back.
The duo presented the Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, which went to the Apple TV+ series “The Studio.”
“Gilmore Girls” debuted on The WB, which later became the CW, in 2000 and concluded in 2007. It followed the life of single mother Lorelai Gilmore, played by Graham, and her teenage daughter Lorelai “Rory” Gilmore, played by Bledel.
In 2016, a miniseries called “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life” aired on Netflix.
