Oy
with
the
spinoffs
already.
While
some
of
the
most
iconic
shows
on
television—looking
at
you,
Law
&
Order:
Special
Victims
Unit
and
The
Simpsons—once
began
as
spinoffs,
it’s
not
often
that
the
magic
of
the
original
show
is
able
to
be
replicated.
And
that’s
why
Gilmore
Girls
stars
Lauren
Graham
and
Scott
Patterson
aren’t
convinced
that
a
spinoff
about
Stars
Hollow’s
iconic
residents
would
work.
Though
for
Scott,
it
took
a
conversation
with
the
then-president
of
the
show’s
network,
Warner
Bros.,
to
realize
why
a
Gilmore
Girls
spinoff—including
one
set
at
his
character
Luke
Danes’
diner—would
always
feel
like
it
was
missing
something.
“I
brought
this
up
to
Peter
Roth
once
advocating
for
my
own
spinoff,”
the
Sullivan’s
Crossing
star
told
E!
News
in
an
exclusive
joint
interview
with
Lauren,
“and
he
told
me
something
steeped
in
TV
history
wisdom.
He
said,
‘Scott,
people
would
miss
the
other
characters
so
much,
because
the
show
is
so
chock
full
of
rich,
wonderful
characters.’”
“And
boy
was
that
a
smart
thing
to
say,”
Scott,
66,
continued,
“because
he
nailed
it.”
