I am all in.
Again!
Gilmore Girls Gazette with Amy Sugarman and Danielle Romo.
An iHeartRadio podcast.
We are back for part two of Gilmore Girls Gazette for this week. And we have been told.
And we've started in a crazy way.
Yeah.
Let's just admit that.
Our producer Jackie said, when we jumped on the Zoom, she said, you guys, please start right away because I want to show you guys some breaking news and I want you to react live on the pod.
Correct.
So what do you think it is?
I have breaking news for you and I want you to react live. When she first said it, I always worry.
Who's hurt? Who's died?
I agree.
But it does not sound like that's the case.
It seems happy, not sad.
Correct. I feel like it's going to be something we're going to enjoy.
So what is it, Jackie?
Don't know what it is.
Oh, finally.
We've been asking.
We've been asking for this for like two straight years. We finally have our first image of Melissa McCarthy as Mrs.
Ramsey, Mrs. JonBenet Ramsey. And that's not her name. Mrs. JonBenet's mom. What was Jon?
Right.
Patty. Patty Ramsey. And Mr. Ramsey, Clive Owen. Let me see that photo again.
That is a great photo to first release. Wow.
And December 10th, we have a date. We have a date. It's a mini series, right? Do we know how many?
A limited series. And it's now going to be on Netflix. It was originally supposed to be where?
Paramount Plus, I think. Paramount somewhere, yeah.
I remember it being Paramount Plus.
We'll explore how the murder of the six-year-old captivated and divided the nation.
First of all, terrible story. Like, it's an awful story. I'm still going to watch it, but just awful. Oh, I like this part.
Told from multiple angles, the series unravels the speculation and unresolved grief.
Now, my one problem is... We're not going to find out the ending because I don't know.
Right.
But.
Wow. Good one, Jackie. Oh, let's go through the cast.
Okay.
Melissa McCarthy is Pat. Oh, I'm sorry. I said Patty, but it's Patsy Ramsey. My bad.
Clive Owen, John Ramsey, a young actress I assume named Emily Mitchell's JonBenet. Garrett Hedlund. as Detective Steve Thomas. Alison Pill, who I like from The Newsroom, I think she was in. Detective Linda Arndt. And then Owen Teague as Shane Edwards. Oh, Clifton Collins Jr.
As Detective Tom Turillo, who I've been watching on Fear the Walking Dead.
Wow, in a weird twist. Will Patton as Lou Smit, recurring. John Billingsley as. Now, this says Santa Bill McReynolds, and I don't know why it's saying Santa, but John Billingsley, I think, has been in everything. If somebody pulls up a picture, what's coming to my mind is Star Trek. I think he's in one of the Star Treks. Josh Stamberg, I think he's hot. I think he's hot. Let me look that up.
He's also in everything. Yep, that is him. He's hunky, and he was in Parenthood. So Danielle, you.
Know, the guy that I'm looking up right as we were stopping parenthood, he's the, the, her tenant that she's fixing the toilet.
Yes.
And he, this is a juicy cast.
Now, Danielle, I don't know if you know this, but as you Google, it's on the screen for everyone to see.
I know, but I was Googling before Jackie was being shared.
Got it.
He's Carl Fletcher. Got it. So I went through.
Well, this is a great breaking. Margot Martindale's in it, too. This cast is bonkers.
I wonder if this is going to be so good that we're going to see all these people at the Emmys.
You know what else is so good is Nobody Wants This. And you said you started watching season three because you have the screeners, right?
No, that was season two that I watched in advance.
Oh, so you don't have season three. Okay.
It'll be there soon. I mean, look, if it's coming in October, I should probably have it soon.
October 22nd, baby. Season three.
What did you think about season two?
I love this show. I do. Season two, it's hard to beat season one.
I actually thought season two was as good as season one, but I think it's always. A minus.
I think it's just not dramatic enough for me. It's a little the same.
You see, this is the stuff I like. You call it a comedy, right?
I like light.
I like rom-com. I like comedy. I love happy, happy, happy fuzzy bunnies.
I'm like ready for a main character to be killed off at any moment.
Oh, stop. Oh my goodness.
Not on this show.
My favorite part is the sister and the brother.
Yes, Justine Lupe.
Pretty into that, right?
Yeah, Justine Lupe. And what's that guy's name? You know the guy's name.
Timothy Simons.
Mm-mm. Yeah, you're right. You're right.
You're right.
Timothy Simons.
But Jackie Tone is the best part of the whole thing.
I know. They're all so good.
Oh, and I love Kristen Bell so much.
I would like to say Adam Brody is the best part of.
The whole thing.
Let me tell you. Count down the days for Frozen 3. I don't know how many years it'll be, but.
The one thing I will have to say is we got our first batch of photos from the series, right? And Jackie, I'm going to need you to chime in here because Amy will not understand this reference. But Kristen Bell's character is giving Amanda Batula.
I know Amanda Batula. She was part of Scamanda.
Do you get my reference?
Oh, yes.
The bun.
The bun ponytail.
It's too good. Where do you see a bun ponytail? What's a bun ponytail?
It's the shirt where she's wearing the or the picture where she's wearing that like leopard shirt. And do you see how her hair is a bun and ponytail?
I don't see any of this, but I want to. Oh. You have to put this up on Instagram.
Oh.
Oh, I like a bun ponytail.
And show her the Amanda Batula bun ponytail.
A bun ponytail is a great, great look.
Oh.
Amanda Batula got slammed for it. Oh, wow.
Why? That's a great, that's a good look. She looks like Hailey Bieber a little.
Bit.
Amanda Batula is cute, and I liked her.
She's cute, yeah.
I think I liked her outfit at the finale.
She's a little slimy, slimy, slimy, but it's all right.
Wait, there was something important I was going to tell you about this, and it's gone.
It's gone from the brain. Maybe it'll come back. Gone. It's gone. It's okay.
We'll come back.
What were we talking about?
We were talking about who we like on Nobody Wants This.
It's a comedy.
Anna Brody is the cutest.
Nothing I was going to tell you is gone. That's okay.
That's all right. Well, moving on to Kelly Bishop. At a book event, she had a moment talking about Ed Herman and Waves in Heaven.
Oh, I think I saw this.
Tear, tear, tear. This was very sweet, very sad.
Yeah, she looked up and sort of, Waved at the heavens. That was, I saw that. I saw that.
I know that was sweet, but sad.
Sean Gunn sort of literally said nothing and everyone's writing about it. And it was, I saw it on social too. They sort of ask him on a podcast. Good night with Ben Glebe, Ben Glebe. When is it coming back? And he sort of just says, I love the character.
I would do it. I'm not the squeaky wheel there though.
Yeah.
And everyone's like, what does that mean?
You know.
I love the character he would do it.
I think we'll have to focus on the documentary next.
Yeah.
All right. Well, same old, same old. What do you make of this guy that has the Gilmore Girls house in Canada that he put up for sale? It has not sold yet. And this guy did a recent interview, the owner, and he goes. I bought the house back in 2002 and he had never heard of the show. He said, and I quote, I had no clue what it was. Absolutely no clue.
You know what, mister?
I wonder if people go by and take photos as much as they do with the full house house.
I'm sure. I do feel like this is maybe, so it's described as a Victorian home at the end of a quiet dead end street in Unionville, Ontario.
Almost $ 4 million?
Yes. I know, it's expensive.
No, that's Canadian money.
2.76 is a lot.
Not cheap.
I'm assuming that's why. It's been on sale for a while.
All this does, you know what this does to me? Make me want to go to that Brady Bunch house again. How can we get back in there?
Please.
No.
I have to.
We did it once.
No, I didn't do it right. I went too fast. I wanted to be polite.
I tried so hard to be polite that I went too fast.
You're going to have to do that on your own. I will be sick that day.
Fine, fine.
This article, Love Gilmore Girls, we asked an expert to break down exactly why we can't stop watching it.
I'm working hard on my Halloween costume. I care about this thing, why we can't stop watching it, but I can answer that.
Because it's good.
Because it's Gilmore Girls and it's Lauren Graham. Right, it's good.
That's good.
So we can read this article. Thank you, Dr. Ashley Gerken, psychologist.
But like, basically, it was your characters aren't constantly being killed off, which is literally.
Contrary to what you just said about nobody.
I'm just watching Fear the Walking Dead.
Did anybody get killed off on Gilmore Girls?
No.
Yeah.
The cat.
Okay.
Cinnamon. Cinnamon.
And tricks.
Oh, good callback, Jackie.
And I thought some neighbor, something happened to a neighbor.
I thought.
It wasn't like Lorelai. It wasn't Luke.
Obviously, it wasn't the main character.
No, but I'm saying. It wasn't like the main. Mr.
Gilmore died between this show and the. This is a sad conversation. I don't like this.
Because I'm reading the headlines.
What do you want me to do?
I'm reporting to the news.
If you want murder, watch True Crime.
Oh, wait, we still have to talk about my Halloween costume, but we have to get these Polly Pockets immediately.
Yeah, let me give a shout out to our Kel and Jeff who have DM'd me about the Gamer Girls Little People set. Six months. And now also the Polly Pocket set.
No, six days?
Yes.
Six days.
September 22nd. You can go on to Mattel. I can't read a countdown.
Clock, by the way, guys. I clearly was like, is that six months?
Oh, my gosh.
This is so cute. We have to get this.
Very cute.
Now, I do have one criticism of Polly Pockets.
You just lose all the parts the second you open it up.
No.
It's very hard to change their outfits compared to... There's a different Disney version. Disney mini dolls.
Let me see if I can get you.
Look how cute they are.
The Disney ones.
Disney Princess and Friends, let me see if I can explain who makes it.
It's easier to change the clothes.
I had a heck of a time in my day trying to change these Polly Pockets clothes for my niece. Disney Princess and Friends, the dresses are a lot easier to get off and get on.
Just saying. Just saying.
This is really cute. My only grief with this is that you lose the pieces in five seconds.
Well, I don't think this is to be played with. I think this is to be set up and shown. Oh, I almost said first of all. But Danielle, the gazebo, Luke's apartment is there.
I know.
The diner's there. I know. Everybody's there.
Look, Lane's there, but she's just not a character. Right.
She's not a 3D character.
And Dean.
No, that's Milo. Jess.
That's Jess. No, that's Dean.
He's in Dosey's. Oh, fudge.
I thought he was in the apartment.
Oh, Jess is up there. I'm looking at Dean at the bottom.
Oh, that's Jess where that arrow is. No, Logan, though. What? Sorry, Logan. No, this must be purchased. Multiple.
This is cute. This is super cute.
We need 10 of these.
I love it.
Sign up. Did someone sign us up for updates? Thank you. Who are the two guys that told you about this? Because that was generous.
No, it's Kel and Jeff.
Kel and Jeff. That's what I'm saying. Oh, Kel is a girl.
Kel is a girl.
I was thinking Keenan and.
They're so cute. You want to see a picture of them?
Of course. Please tell me they're wearing the Luke and Lorelai outfits. Of course. I feel it already.
Look how cute they are. Okay.
I love them. Whoa.
I met them.
You met them, Jackie?
Yes.
Last year at Holidays Made Here, they came up to me and they're like, you're producer Jackie.
And they're so sweet and so nice.
The only reason she doesn't look like Lorelai is that she has blonde hair, but he looks like Scott. Wait, let me see that again.
They're adorable.
They're so sweet and so nice.
She's beautiful.
She just doesn't look like Lorelai because she's very blonde. But he could be mistaken for Luke.
Wow. Thanks.
You know, a shout out to them because they always give me, they always DM me the news. And I appreciate, I love when people do that. So thank you.
I'm reading this about this song. I did not know about it. I'm learning about this for the first time. How do I watch this song? When you drop out of Yale, steal a yacht, get bailed. I'll play it for you guys.
Let me get it.
Let's just play it. Somebody's going to probably send us a letter.
When you're serving food with a bad attitude, that's Luke's forte. When you're cooking a lot, burn your hand on a pot, that's Suki.
This is so good.
When you're dancing your pants off and stray with your hands, that's Miss Patty.
When you're dancing your pants off and stray with your hands, that's Miss Patty. When you're cooking a lot, burn your hand.
I don't know how that's a suitcase. When you serve up good food with a bad attitude, that's a forte.
This is a real guy.
Good job, Bruce. That is funny.
Bruce did good.
How dare you say Bruce was AI.
Bruce is a real guy.
Way to go, Bruce.
Brilliant.
Woof.
That's cute. Congrats on your chairs.
Oh, you should have saw. When I opened up the Zoom, you were maybe 45 seconds behind me. And I turned on my Zoom and I said, how did this get worse? And I cleared everything off to the table next to me. These were filled.
You did good. I'm working on my garage. It doesn't look like it right now, but I'm really working hard out here.
It actually does look decluttered a bit. Thanks.
Remember when I got sick when we were in L.A.? Mm-hmm. Not 100% yet.
Oh, no.
I know.
It lingers. Lingers. It's not holding me back, but it does linger.
It's still there. It's still a brewing.
Yeah, it's still just like.
Yeah, you definitely had COVID then.
I know.
Or RSV. I had one of the two. The two gifts that keep on giving.
But then do I get my.
I guess I'll get my flu shot first. Then I'll get my COVID shot. I'll let me wear off the COVID in case I had COVID.
I'll get the shots.
Guess what?
Send your letters. Totally fine.
But the minute I read an article that said getting a vaccine reduces your chance of Alzheimer's 40%.
You're going for it.
Now, I haven't done a deep dive on the data, but I saw that headline in reputable places.
Signed myself up.
I love it.
And I ate the blueberries.
I do it all.
Do it all. So yeah, send your letters because you don't have to agree with me. I totally respect it. Just my choice. Just what I'm doing.
Just my choice.
Just what I'm doing. But it's that time of year, guys. Not sponsored.
Yeah.
All right. That's the news.
We'll come back.
We need to talk a little more. That wasn't long enough.
It was long enough. It was long enough.
I don't think so. I'm not ready to go. I have five more minutes in me. You done?
I can give you guys something.
Great. Please do, Jackie. I've got a little more life left in me.
There's something coming up in the next week or so that's a major announcement.
Wait, where is Jackie getting all this stuff? Jackie, where are you getting that? Where are you getting that?
With our call last Friday, something is happening. Oh, Jackie.
Good call, Jackie.
Wow.
Way to go.
Jackie is our producer, but she's so much more than that. She's like Queen Gilmore.
She really stepped up out of nowhere with that.
I am steeped into this Gilmore for the past three years.
Were you a Gilmore virgin?
No.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I was. Remember we almost called the podcast Virgin Gilmore? I feel like we did.
We almost did.
There was a world where we had that as a working title. I feel like it was good, not great. I am all in. Way better. Way better. I'm starving.
What should I eat?
Anyway, do you want to do a trivia question before we go?
Sure.
I started a drawer. Of games.
So let me get my game drawer.
Oh, my game drawer. I have to stand up to get to it. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Are you ready? Are you ready?
Yes.
Oh my God, my eyes are getting worse by the day. What classic horror film do Lorelai and Max watch at the Black, White.
Red bookstore?
Something eating the tall foot woman or something, like five.
Foot, but that's hilarious. The 10-foot woman. No, it was The House on Haunted Hill. Okay, this one you should get. What Parks and Rec actor played Jackson's older brother?
Nick Offerman.
Good job, Jackie. Who reveals the news of Lorelai and Jason's intimate relationship to Emily and Richard? Jason. Yeah, no. The dad, Floyd Stiles. Jackie is crushing. We just had him.
On, that's why.
Oh, that's amazing.
The actor, he was 87. He was able to get on Zoom. He was great.
Wait.
That's amazing.
How was he?
He was great. He was great.
Okay, that's amazing.
I had to FaceTime him on Hulu to log in, and he watched, and he's never watched his episode before.
Oh, my gosh.
If you missed this, go back and listen. Yes. Iconic. What's the episode title so people can find it?
It was Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom. It was season four episode. I want to say like 17 or 18. Jackie, you deserve a raise.
I'm just letting you know. What is Lorelai's middle name?
Kiki. Oh. Stand by.
What?
I know. Isn't Lorelai?
No.
Oh, my gosh.
I can't remember.
I'm about to Google.
Ray, I don't know.
Isn't Lorelai Rory?
No.
Yeah.
I knew you were going to say something like that.
No, it isn't.
Isn't Lorelai? It's Victoria. Oh, Victoria. Where do Rory and Dean first meet? This is so easy.
In the aisle?
No.
No, guys, out of school. Remember, she drops the book.
Oh, that's right. Where the kids live in front of the cornmeal.
Giant fail.
What upsets Rory the most about Lorelai and Christopher's marriage?
This is also so obvious.
What upsets Rory the most?
I'm worried about you. You're getting the hard ones.
These can be 5,000 things. What is it that she.
She wasn't there.
Oh, it was in Paris. That's right. It was in Paris. Okay, got it.
I'll go back to the game drawer. Whoa, I'm keeping, it's hard to get, I'm a little stuck by the mic. So it's like, I have to shimmy, shimmy, pop around it.
Um that's the news
