Rose Abdoo, the actress who plays Emily’s maid, Berta, also plays beloved car mechanic Gypsy from the original serie. If you didn’t notice, you would be forgiven, because it’s amazing what a curly wig can do.

Gilmore Guys

Kevin T. Porter and Demi Adejuyigbe are the chatty brains behind the famous Gilmore Guys podcast, and another 'easter egg' addition to the revival's cast. Porter and Adejuyigbe made a very sneaky cameo during the reboot as extras sitting at the back of the Dragonfly Inn.

A Familiar Melody

The song that plays in the background of Lorelai and Luke's wedding montage in the new series is the same track that was playing when they danced at Liz's wedding.

It's called "Reflecting Lights" and is sung by Sam Phillips.
