The Gilmore Girls revival is so close now that we can practically taste it. And the question on everyoneโs lips isโฆ what are those famous final four words of the show?
As the story goes, Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino has always known what the final four words of the show, but she never got the opportunity to reveal them, as she left before the finale in 2007.
But now that sheโs back, fans are DYING to know what sheโs had in mind for the ending all along. Even Scott Patterson, who plays Luke on the show, has come out and said he felt โquite perturbedโ by the final four words on the show.

Lauren Graham has given a couple of hints as well, telling Entertainment Weekly that two characters said the line, not one, and that it was quite unexpected.
โItโs not as resolved as I thought they would be. I thought they would be, โHoney Iโm home!โ or something like, โGoodbye, small town!โ So I was like, โOh? Really?โโ
Alexis Bledel also told EW that it is very typical of Sherman-Palladinoโs writing style.
โIt is very much what Amy wanted,โ Bledel said. โIf anyone knows her storytelling theyโll maybe know what to expect. I honestly donโt know what to say about it without using specifics. It does kind of, hmm, it does kind of throw you.โ
Here are a couple of our favourite theories for what those four words are:
1. โIโm pregnant.โ โMe tooโ
Amy Sherman-Palladino has always said that the show was about the mother-daughter relationship between Lorelai and Rory, and what better way to start that cycle again than both of them being pregnant??
2. โI do.โ โMe tooโ
We know that Luke and Lorelai are together in the Gilmore Girls revival, but the question isโฆnow what? While some people are speculating a baby, some people are speculating a wedding, and hence the theory that the final words will be:
โI do.โ โ Lorelai
โMe too.โ โ Luke
3. โMore coffee?โ โYes please.โ
Lorelai and Rory are well known for their coffee addiction and this could be a final salute and declaration of their mother-daughter bond.
4. โIโm sorry.โ โMe tooโ
While Amy Sherman-Palladino has focused a lot on the relationship between Lorelai and Rory, there has been a lot of tension between Lorelai and her own mum. Imagine if the end of the show was a final reconciliation and acceptance between the two!
