Lauren Graham Explains Why No One Hates The 'Gilmore Girls' Revival | Weird Wire! Seriously, I’ve only heard and read positive feedback about the revival. This is so refreshing in this day and age of the often dreaded social media. I could think of one reason that may have contributed to this - the return of majority of the cast members. There’s nothing more satisfying and exciting than to see the beloved actors reprising their original roles, characters that fans and critics alike have come to cherish and treasure. More so, there was no question about any salary issues and the like. It would seem that love and respect for the project were what drove the cast members to revisit Stars Hollow, especially since some of them may only be in it for a scene or two. They must really love each other’s company. And I can feel this as much.
