Scott Patterson added: [Herrmanns death] left a big void, but Amy honored it beautifully.
Hes throughout … these stories.
Its a wonderful homage to him as a person and to his character as well.
Its nice to have him around.
Does season 7 exist?
As Amy Sherman-Palladino explained toTVLine, they arent just going to act as if season 7 didnt happen.
The events of season 7 will have taken place within the world of the revival.
Dean has a cool scene in the market he used to work in, Padalecki said.
Its a really nice scene that gave me closure.

Amy Sherman-Palladino has said shes long known the four words shed write to end the series.
And its a good thing, because now she has a chance to put the final phrase in writing.
However, Graham revealed that theyre not spoken in unison.
Rather, its an exchange.
And to me, it was deeply satisfying and also it answered questions I didnt even think of.
I thought, Oh how perfect, wow.
I wouldnt even have wondered that.'
Could there be moreGilmore Girls?
As Grahamtold EW, the final four words wont necessarily feel like the end.
To read the final episode, its not totally final, Graham says.
I keep saying, Hey, does anyone else notice this isnt actually an ending?
Amy and Dan just giggle at me.
And according toDan Palladino, they might not have to be final.
We just never say never, he said to the idea of moreGilmore.
The cast is not killed in a terrible explosion at the end.
Were going to places that these characters havent gone before, emotionally speaking, he said.
As Patterson put it.
Theres room for more.
