8/10
Not perfect but still good

Warning: Spoilers
The four-part revival attempts to capture a year in the lives of the characters, revisiting Lorelai, Rory, and Emily Gilmore. It's a mixed bag of emotions and storylines that aim to tie up loose ends while also presenting new challenges.

On the positive side, the revival maintains the signature fast-paced dialogue and pop culture references that made the original series so endearing. The chemistry between the characters remains intact, and there are moments that evoke the same warmth and charm that fans fell in love with. Additionally, it's heartening to see the characters' growth and how they navigate the new phases of their lives.

However, the revival does have its drawbacks. Some storylines feel forced or unresolved, leaving viewers wanting more closure. The pacing can be uneven, and certain plot arcs might not resonate as strongly as others. Furthermore, while it's natural for characters to evolve, some of the choices made for their development might not align with fans' expectations or the essence of the original series.

I wish there had been more closure with Rory and her love life.

Also that Luke and Lorelai had been married before and had some children.
