Gilmore Girls Gazette: Coffee with Scott Patterson & a Run-In with Matt Czuchry!

I am all in.

Again!

Gilmore Girls Gazette with Amy Sugarman and Danielle Romo.

An iHeartRadio podcast. It's time! Welcome to Gilmore Girls Gazette.

That is new.

You like it?

Last couple weeks, it was singing. You know what that reminded me of? It's, you know, you're the next contestant on The Price is Right.

Come on down.

This is the Gilmore Girls Gazette.

I was channeling my inner Bob Barker.

Gilmore Girls Gazette is taking the nation by storm.

Let me tell you.

You had a weekend.

So, I want to like set up this Danville thing. So in Danville, they had this flannel and foliage, which is a hard word to say. I see people on the TikTok.

No, foliage. Foliage. It means leaves, right? The eyes on the other side of the L, you're right.

People are having a hard time with it. So look, I am in it with everybody, right? There were some critiques of this event.

What were the critiques? That it was spread out?

Um, there wasn't enough happening. I think was one of the problems, which look, they bit off a lot, right? They might've bit off more than they could chew with this one because they had huge names. They had Scott, they had Kelly, they had Yannick, they had Sean, and then they had sort of like some secondary people.

Right.

Yeah.

Which is like pretty major.

That's a cast that like a list cast.

Literally Scott and Kelly alone are a, and then you add Yannick and Sean.

You're like, I would say those are a, the, This is a game, right? I agree.

So here's what I would say are the positives, my take, but then also what I've seen people saying. The positives are Danville's a very cute Stars Holloway town, right? It really was Stars Holloway. It's probably like a little bigger than the way I envision Stars Holloway, but it has the vibes, right? Which was good and bad. The negatives was the event was kind of all spread out, right?

Like we walked at one point from where the photos were kind of at the library and sort of the movie theater. And it's like a good small walk down to where another thing was. So you, and you sort of saw Gilmore people throughout the town. Cause you could kind of recognize them, but it was like spread out.

Right.

I think it was underwhelming in some ways, like the Kim's antiques, which I didn't see, but they were like, there wasn't enough to it.

It's not like, well, the problem is we're used to holidays here and there's nothing that will be at it. You're on the set. Every single room is carefully thought out, designed, designed.

All it is made here on a scale of one to a hundred is a hundred. And this was a 20.

Ah, that's low. And I'm not being.

Mean though, because right, but it's, now look, I don't expect it to be a hundred. There's no way they're going to achieve anything close to what the Warner Brothers lot can do. I think the thing that I read was like, Kelly Bishop did a toast at this restaurant Bridges. So people, which is a nice restaurant and they bought this expensive dinner, but some people are sitting outside and the toast was inside. Little things like that. Interesting fun.

You want to know a fun fact about Bridges?

That would bother me. Well, yeah.

I get it, right? Want to know a fun fact about Bridges?

Tell me.

Have you seen Mrs. Doubtfire?

Obviously.

So you know the scene where Pierce Brosnan's there, Sally Field's there, and they think they're having dinner with Mrs. Doubtfire?

Yes.

But Robin Williams is also having dinner with his boss, Phil and Bridges. You know, and he's running back and forth and back and forth.

Yeah, and changing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, my God. So I don't know. This might have been the biggest thing to happen to Bridges since that.

I'm not sure.

Mrs. Doubtfire.

Bridges was kind of like the restaurant where you would go like when we were kids. Like, we're going to dinner with grandma and grandpa. Let's all get dressed up and we're going to Bridges. Do you know what I mean? So I don't know. Like, I didn't know Bridges was still a thing, but yay Bridges. So my experience with it was cute, right? We went to meet Scott. Part of it was like kind of like a have coffee with Scott. So we're at this diner that I had never been to, but I had seen a million times.

And it's called Pete's Brass Rail and Car Wash. Guess what? There's no car wash. It's just called that.

What was the first house?

Pete's Brass Rail and Car Wash.

What's a brass rail?

No idea. I thought maybe like a train thing or something. I don't know. But it's a dinery type place. So it was the right type of place.

Like there's pancakes, coffee, eggs.

Yeah.

It was lunchtime when we were there, but we ordered fries. And I have to say, I'll go back for the fries. So I had seen this place a million times. I thought it was a.

Car wash.

I was 10 years old when I learned it wasn't a car wash.

It's just car wash.

But what they did I thought was really cute. So if you bought this ticket or whatever, there were all these tables outside. So say you were a table of four. There was a fifth chair. And Scott went and sat at every table for like a good chunk of time.

Oh, because he would. Because he does. And that's what he does.

So I thought that was really cute. And then we hopped in Scott's car.

Was he so happy to see you?

Yeah, but I had been texting.

He knew.

I mean, yes, but it wasn't like a surprise.

Right.

No, I know. I told him where to stay and the whole thing. We're always virtual.

So whenever we see each other, it's like a big reunion and we're all so happy to see each other.

And we took over immediately and was like, can you take a picture with these people? And can you do this for social and blah, blah, blah.

Of course you did.

So we jumped in his car, which was pretty cool. Like he had security and like a driver. So that was fun. We're like, we're fancy, we're fancy. So we jumped in his car and then we went around to the photo op, which I again thought was cute. Like It was very professionally done. Professional photographer. And I must say, the photos are good. Did you see her photo?

Yeah, your photo is great. So Stassi, who runs our world.

Stassi looks like she's so happy in that photo.

I know.

Carrie. I was so happy in that photo.

I was so soaked. Stassi was like, I.

Don't know what my job is, but.

I love it.

I love this job. Um, Scott, obviously you and Sean and Kirk.

Yeah.

Sean, AKA Kirk. And we didn't go like, Hey guys, can we have a photo? Scott was like, don't leave. Cause we were going to leave. Cause we're like, okay, we've got him here.

He's good.

We've seen him. And he's like, no guys, guys, guys, guys, we've got to get a photo. And so like they had it professional. And what I liked is, so there was a long line, a long ass line and people like pay money.

You like that you didn't have to wait is what you liked.

Obviously.

Correct.

And I loved it.

I was in like an SUV. We took a photo actually.

It was ridiculous how many people.

If there's not a lot to do, you're lining up for that photo op at the very least.

Now I did think it was cool that immediately you get handed this professional photo. So that part was cool. And it was very Gilmorey. The other part that I thought would have been cool that we didn't do was sort of the panel talk or the Scott talk or the Emily talk. Kelly, Emily. I'm going to blur the real names and the character names because I want people to know who we're talking about. That would have been cool.

I think they had it in a theater, you know, sort of the luxury type thing. I would always enjoy that. And then, you know, look, it went on and on, but we didn't do everything. Here's what I would say. I think that they should do it again, and I think they could work out the kinks.

That's what I would say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fair enough. They should enlist our help.

For sure, which they did not do. That's okay. We don't have time.

Okay.

So we could have.

Done a whole live podcast in the theater and had so many people come to that. I don't know. Whatever. That lady didn't, she didn't know us.

So Stassi and Carrie, tell us your favorite part of the whole thing. Being newbies to kind of the, you know, the, the situation.

I was so okay, my experience first, I go into this diner kind of just so unbelievably confused because they labeled.

It as coffee chat. Like, so I'm thinking like, okay, maybe it's like, he'll be up on a stage somewhere.

Yeah. talking to everyone like at this coffee shop and then I walk in it's totally this diner vibe of like I don't even think people know that Scott's gonna walk in right.

Now half the people the majority people there were just Danville people.

Yeah and so I have to just like kind of I go up to the waiter I was like I'm so confused right now like is Scott coming here like do we sit somewhere like what she's like he's literally gonna go around.

And pour coffee for everyone and go sit and talk to them that's adorable I was like, wait, I was, would have never guessed that.

And then he brings them in and it was just like the cutest thing of like, he would literally go sit at like all these tables with everyone and just chat with them for a good while, like a good, like 15, 20 minutes for, um, A bit.

And I was like, wait, it's so interactive. It's really sweet.

And like, you're actually like meeting him rather than like being in an audience and just like listen to him speak to everyone. And I was like, wait, that's like a really fun idea. And then the area was cute. It was very like stars hollow. Like even all the shops that they like, they decorated inside and Danville and like made like stars hollow, like merch and like little things like that. And it was just so fall.

Yeah.

Did you like my chocolate place? We, I took them to Danville chocolate.

Did all the places have like, Did Danville have like the Rory bar? A bit.

There was a bit of that, but not a lot of that. They could have leveled that out.

Yeah.

If you were a business, a small business there, you should have leaned in.

I know with all these newcomers, visitors in the town, you'd think they would like level up, get into it.

There was one store that like made Mertz. For it specifically, like they have it was like a store that makes like, like laptop covers and like key chains and like coasters and things like that. And they made a section specifically just for like Gilmore Girls and Stars Hollow and like for like the event.

And it was super cute.

Some of the stores understood the assignment, but some did not.

And the others did not. Well, it's the first year. So maybe next year they'll understand the assignment. Exactly.

I think they need a second year of this for sure. I think what, this is Carrie. They, I have a lot of friends who live in.

Danville and Alamo with kids and they just didn't even know.

How to Incorporate what was happening.

So I sent them a few of our pictures and just, you know, earlier in the day was like, come join us. And it was like the communication to them didn't get through and they were diehard fans. And when I sent them the photos, they were so blown away that we were there with Scott and Kirk.

They actually said, are those cardboard cutouts?

I can't believe you got that access.

Like the moms were even funnier is on Facebook. I did see some kids we know from elementary school that went. Do you know what I'm saying? I saw people with Scott photos on Facebook, not through us, right? Just that went. And I was like, oh, that's funny.

Okay.

Did they talk about doing it again next year?

I don't know. I never met the lady putting it on. I think somebody was emailing with her.

Yeah.

So Jackie should, I don't know. She should come on with us and tell us what went right and what went wrong so she can do it again next year.

Love that.

That's a good idea.

Yeah. Well, all in all, I feel like you guys had a good time. At least hang in with Scott, be with Scott.

I thought the fries at the Pete's Brass Rail car wash that isn't a car wash.

It was my first time like meeting Scott in person and he's hilarious.

He's just so nice. Wait, I would go again.

I think Scott was wearing the shirt we gave him, Danielle. I'm pretty sure. I cocked it, as the kids say.

This is what I'm going to say about Scott. If we tell him, Scott, you got to wear this shirt, he'll do it.

Because we got him this designer Ralph Lauren.

Like a $ 400 flannel shirt. No, this was the denim one. Oh, no, it wasn't the flannel one.

This was the denim one. And I'm pretty sure we got it. Oh, that's right.

Yep.

I think we need to get him a few more things to wear because he looked good. His outfit was on point.

He was wearing a white hat, not blue.

Oh, that's true. I didn't see that one. That was the other thing.

The people that dressed up as Luke was the cutest thing ever.

Oh, Stassi. Stassi has not been to Warner Brothers.

Stassi, you must. Stassi has to be there. It was so cute. Do you like Gilmore? You watch Gilmore Girls?

I love Gilmore Girls, yeah.

Okay, you will freak the hell out.

That, I'm telling you, that was just like an entry-level... When you go to this thing, wowza. Even I, who is very jaded, is like.

I love it every year. And I've seen it four years in a row by this point. And it's better every time. Each year I die.

I don't know if we're allowed to say. There's a few things that I don't even think we're allowed to say yet that are going to be so iconic.

Don't say it.

Wait, speaking of Kelly Bishop, who we did not see that we, you know, we messed up. We just didn't, we were like kind of very Scott. We were where Scott was. And obviously they have the big names and they're not going to put them all in the same place.

Right.

So she's writing a novel now. I mean, and I mean this with love. She's 78 and she is, is that right? She's 78? How old is Kelly? I think she's older. Oh, because the story's about a 78 year old. Alexa, Alexa, how old is Kelly Bishop?

She's 82.

Yeah, I told you, 82.

She's on fire. She's doing more than ever.

Well, no stopping her. You write your novels. You write those books.

So she's writing the story about a 78-year-old divorcee whose living situation changes when she takes in three roommates. This will become a Hallmark movie or like a Lifetime movie or like a movie movie, a Netflix movie. It's just already. I love it. I love it. Way to do a tagline. I was going to talk about this and listen if you want to, but I'm going to tell you right now.

Dig.

You know that Amy Poehler show that we were kind of like saying, wah, wah?

Yeah.

Trailer is good. The write-up was bad. But this is a good write-up. The story follows a 78-year-old divorcee whose living situation changes and she takes in three roommates. Immediately I know.

This is going to be fun.

I know what we're doing.

Yeah.

Right?

We're going to have the older woman. We're going to have the younger gal. We might have a guy.

A divorcee. The younger gals are helping the older gal date.

She's going to go on the date. They're getting her dressed. Like I can see it all right now. Kelly previously released her memoir, The Third Gilmore, in 2024. So now she's going to have by 2027, about one year from now, her novel. Way to Lauren Grammett, girl.

Can we, since Tara's on right now, Can we please jump to a very, very exciting in the wild spotting?

Definitely. Tara. Welcome to the Gazette.

Tell us what happened.

So last week I was sitting on my computer and I get a text from my mom. She's at work and she said, Hey, I'm completely blanking on his name, but who's the guy that plays Logan in Gilmore Girls?

I'm completely blanking on his name. Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, she didn't know his real name.

Right.

She's like, he plays Logan. I was like, Matt Zuckery, why? She goes, oh, he's at my store. And I was like, you could have led with that.

Can you name your mom's store? Is it allowed? She works at... Here's the thing. Bougie, Matt. Way to go.

Can I tell you what is so annoying to me?

This is.

a bad photo of him that you sent Tara and he looks and he looks I know because my.

Mom was just sneaking it to send to me.

No but he doesn't have a bad photo no send me one bad photo.

It doesn't exist Matt Zucari does not age.

It's not only he does not age he does not have a bad angle he does not have a bad Smirk? He can be eating a hot dog and he still looks hot.

I'm a hot dog. I'm a hot dog.

I just don't understand.

How?

I don't know.

Because he's been emboozled in this photo, like not aware.

He also just like has not aged. Like he looks exactly. Can we also get Matt Zucari a show again? Because Gilmore, the good wife, the resident. We're ready. We need a new Matt Zucari vehicle. And I'd like a Romedy.

And I will tell you, the last time, I do not get Star Trek.

I just made that up, by the way. Romedy. It's a rom-com dramedy. For me, a romedy is going to be a rom-com, but it's also drama.

I thought it was a bro romance comedy.

Dramedy. I'm going to call it a dramedy, which is a drama rom-com comedy. I need some drama in there. I can't just like yucca yucca all the time.

But when we met Matt last year at Holidays Made Here, I was like, who is, he has this like aura. He has this.

Yeah.

I don't know. He's got swag.

I was a little nervous to say hi to him.

Me too.

And Jackie was like, no, just go say hi. And I was like, but it's Matt Zuckery.

He's so polite and very regal.

You know what it is?

He's regal. Like he could be royalty somewhere.

He's just awesome.

Yeah.

Also awesome. Speaking of awesome. Did you see the reunion? We didn't know we were getting. Danny Strong and Liza Weil.

Yes.

Yes. Reunite for the documentary.

Thank you, Tara, for coming.

Oh, bye, Tara.

I didn't say anything. Bye. Yes. Danny Strong and Liza. That was very cute. And they are cute.

And they gave us this sneak peek.

Peak.

So it was for the documentary. Is that correct?

Well, it says for an upcoming HBO max Gilmore girls documentary. So I don't know if it's, I'm assuming it's Lawrence. Do we know that Lawrence is going to be on HBO max?

Yes, we do know that.

We do.

I guess that makes sense. Cause isn't HBO max Warner brothers. And there is that.

I don't know.

I'm confused by the documentaries, but what I do know is Paris Geller is, and Doyle were married. So it really only makes sense that they'd be together.

And they look so cute here though. Really cute. They're adorable.

So this is the one, I don't know. This is a confusing article because we don't know what's what here, which documentary. There's very many documentaries.

I don't like that. Do one documentary, one documentary and everyone participate. I don't like that.

Well, let's get into the lore. There was that documentary that someone else was already doing. before lauren and amy sherman paladino decided to do the documentary.

Well there's a note in this one that lauren graham and amy sherman paladino are expected to participate in the documentary i don't think they would if it wasn't there.

Correct that's a very confusing note because it says are expected to participate lauren graham and amy sherman paladino are doing a documentary so that is who where's this article from it's from good housekeeping come on good housekeeping I think you could have done a little more due diligence. You got a confusing article there, but that's okay. Anyway, we got a photo of the two of them, and that's all that matters. Yeah. Did you see Marion Ross?

Marion Ross, a.k.a. Trix, but also a.k.a. Marion Cunningham, 98.

That's incredible.

Happy birthday.

98.

Yeah.

Did I tell you about the 105-year-old at my hair salon? 105? 105. So I will not lie. I go to the hair salon. Hair salon feels like an old-timey way to say it, but this is a hair salon. So what happens is you can see all my gray right now. You get your hair.

Colored every week.

That is. Well, and I pushed it to a week and a half, and that's why it's so gray right now Cause I had to push it.

I'm not going to make you feel better, but it does not look great.

Thank you so much, but it's terrible. So I get my color from LA. It ships up to Northern California because I don't trust any color, but Caroline's color, this wonderful lady, Renee says, At the grandma hair salon.

Can you tell me who Caroline is from your old previous salon in LA?

Correct. Caroline is.

She mixes it.

She prepares it. I get these things.

Watch Caroline. She's getting it from the store.

No, Caroline makes it special. Don't even talk about that.

No, it's just, what is that? Madison Reed.

Right.

She's just all.

So it gets up here.

I take it to Renee and Renee puts it on. But Renee works at what I will call the grandma salon. I am the youngest in there, typically by 35 years.

Wow.

Okay.

And I'm 50.

What makes it the grandma salon?

Because it's been around since the days of yore and all the grandmas went there and they're still going there, but the new young people aren't going there. I mean, I'm sure there's, bits and bobs of young people.

It's not the trendy salon. It's the staple salon.

Correct. Correct.

And they do perms and they do like grandma hair, right? So I'm sitting there, you know, like I blow in like a, you know, bull in a china shop.

I don't know.

That's like a saying, right?

Yeah.

My brother tells me I'm a bull in a china shop. So she puts on my color, but I'm always observing, observing, observing what's going on in the salon. And this nice grandma's sitting there and she gets up And then they're like, Gladys or whatever, come back for your perm in December. She leaves. They're like, she's 105.

105.

And I've met many a centagerian. I don't know if that's how you say it in that salon.

I mean, that's good news for you. Keep going there. They're putting something in their hair dye. Just keep on going. They're like, whatever you're putting in their hair.

And this lady was spry. She's just walking. There used to be a hundred-year-old. She did pass away, but who drove there?

Wow.

Drove. And then I saw her at the post office. I think I've told you guys about her that I saw her at the post office.

That's incredible.

I love stories like that. So go Marion Cunningham. Marion Ross.

Tricks.

So, I mean, I think we're like knee deep into Gilmore Girls season. So this is Halloween. This is Halloween. This is Halloween. And I have my Lorelai outfit. I just have a, it's cold. And so I'm thinking maybe I need to be Lorelai during the day. I have three Halloween activities. Did you figure it out? So I've got the shirt is perfect, except it's at the alterations.

And so I hope she can finish it in time. I've got the jacket. I've got the boots. I have ordered 19 pairs of jean denim shorts. Because my good ones are in Tahoe. And I hate them all because they're so wasted.

Why don't you sort out the ones that you have in Tahoe again?

Sold out.

You don't know what they are?

No, I do. They're one teaspoon.

Sold out.

They're sold out.

Oh.

So I've got two more coming from Revolve. We'll see. But I've got backups. I'm trying to decide if I would wear the same outfit at one point.

You should wear Luke. He'll be very comfortable.

Oh, my gosh.

Actually. Jeans and a flannel. Just call it a day.

It's funny you say that in a backwards hat. I could just totally pivot it. You and I could be Luke's because it's comfortable. So we could wear jeans. Kind of like, does he like wear, what kind of shoes does Luke wear?

Like boots.

That's what I think. We're not going to look like super sexy, but.

I don't think that's the intent.

Backwards hat.

I like that.

I like that idea. Let's do it. Yeah, let's be Luke this year.

Yeah, let's be Luke. Because we'll be comfortable and we'll be cute. And now we can find the perfect flannels.

I'm in New York today and. got off the plane, driving into the city and I'm looking around and I'm like, wow, this is what it feels like to have seasons and to be in Gilmore girls. Like I thought it, like I felt like I see different color trees. That is, that is like Gilmore girls. It felt very, very Gilmore girls.

I feel like when the, the, the trees change and it gets a little cold.

Well, and Gilmore girls is more East coasty vibes.

Yeah.

What if you're Lorelei and I'm Luke at, at Warner Brothers.

Actually, that's not a bad idea. Then I could... Then I won't... Then I can do my whole denim shorts.

You can do your skinny skirt.

I'll do my... Well, no. I think I'm going to do the... I'm going to do the tie-dyed shirt, the coat, the boots, the jeans. Maybe we do an outfit change. Maybe for our tour, we do the outfits and then we change for the podcast or something.

Okay.

I like it.

Yeah.

That would be cute.

We could be Luke and Lorelai.

And we got to figure out what Suzanne and Tara are. Maybe... Well, we got to have a Rory.

Somebody's got to be a Rory. Oh, and somebody's got to be a Suki. Okay, there we go.

Yeah.

For sure. For sure.

They can pick. They can battle it out. That'll be fun.

That'll be fun.

All right.

Well, and that's the news.

And that's news.
