    We'd love to know what you think makes a small town like Stars Hollow so charming? Also, do you have a favorite Gilmore Girls character?

      Mainly the people;) I love all the characters in Gilmore Girls, because collectively they make each other better & their town better. I love how in Stars Hollow, everyone is accepted even with their quirks;) There is a lot of love for their town & its people as well. Although peaceful, there’s never a dull day in Stars Hollow. The antique New England/Colonial style of wood work & buildings adds to the majestic design of the town. Where you filmed, all locations, were stunning..but they also gave a very comforting vibe. I live in Washington State, where some places look similar but not nearly as rich in history nor comforting as the East Coast cities are🍁You truly captured the essence of Stars Hollow & Gilmore Girls beautifully! Thank you so much for this distraction from all the chaos! A great reminder that things will come & go & change, but we will always have Stars Hollow🍂🍁

      It's something about the community of people and their involvement on a personal level in each others life despite differences and imperfections.
      Also an orginal gilmore girl here, I went through school with rory. I love all the characters but watching as it aired for the first time and being there with rory, I related with her being very similar. As I have rewatched throughout the years and as a mother now. I find I am more similar and relate more with Lorelai. I actually find I am immensely like her as a mother. Thanks for the tour!

    I love my hometown of Petaluma, CA. It has made several top 10 lists of most charming and friendly cities in America. We have (had) so many festivals throughout the year and go all out for the holidays. There are over a dozen antique stores in the historic downtown. Dozens of Victorian and craftsman houses are throughout the downtown area. We also have TWO annual antique faires, with almost 200 vendors. We are also originally a farm town, at one time being the countries largest egg provider. So driving the backroads is gorgeous, passing fields and farms.

    I was raised in NM, CT. It is so charming and I miss it. Most sentimental, nearly 30yrs ago, my husband proposed to me on Christmas Eve. The backdrop: the gazebo! He pretended to find a little wrapped box behind the Xmas tree. Freezing and on one knee I said yes.

    I loved your video. My great-great grandfather was born in Litchfield, but his family moved to Washington, Ct when he was small. As an adult, he was always taking the buckboard to New Milford. I read his diary, from 1864, when he was in the Union Army. He got out in September of 1864, and was always going on about New Milford. My folks moved from Connecticut when I was five. I never got to see the old home sites, so "Vielen dank!"

    Someone says that the "real" Stars Hollow is in Unionville-Toronto (and in fact the first episode was shot there), someone says that it is Washingont Depot. Btw, I think it's really cool to live in a small town like this. Many other TV series of the 2000s are set in similar contexts, where you can breathe simplicity and genuineness, where the inhabitants participate in the daily life of the community. Far from stupid socials network, far from stress and chaos. Did you visit even the set of Stars Hollow? Greetings from Italy :)
