LOS ANGELES — A mini “Gilmore Girls” reunion happened in Hollywood when star Lauren Graham was honored with a Walk of Fame star Friday.

Her former co-stars Scott Patterson, who played Luke Danes; Kelly Bishop, who played Emily Gilmore; Matt Czuchry, who played Logan Huntzberger; and Yanic Truesdale, who played Michel Gerard, attended the event. 

Sam Pancake, a comedian and actor in the 2016 revival of the show, emceed the event. He introduced Graham and summarized her decadeslong career with nearby fans cheering at her achievements. 

“Her body of work is filled with feminist characters who are spirited, smart and hilarious,” he said, before documenting over her volunteer work, writing and many awards. 

Show creator and writer Amy Sherman-Palladino also spoke at the ceremony, recalling the hiring process to find a star for the show. 

“She came in, she sat down, she said two words and I was like ‘God (expletive), it’s her,'” she said. “Lauren Graham changed my entire life… I owe you everything and more than that, you are everything to me.” 

The show, which spanned seven years and 153 episodes, celebrates its 25th anniversary Sunday.

“This is so overwhelming and so nice,” Graham said. “This was not on any bucket list I ever made, not even the secret ones.” 

She thanked fans for being so “kind” and “enthusiastic,” thanked her cast mates, representatives, show runners and writers for helping shape her characters, particularly that of Lorelai Gilmore.

Graham is best known for the “Gilmore Girls” role where she played Lorelai, a bed-and-breakfast owner in the small made up town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. The story is set in a storybook and follows Lorelai building her life without the help of her “well-off” parents, according to the show summary. 

The show won one Emmy award and had an additional 23 wins and 85 nominations across various award categories and shows, like the People’s Choice Awards, the Golden Globes, the Teen Choice Awards and many others, according to IMDb. 

Graham herself has won seven awards and has 22 total nominations. She was awarded the 2,823rd star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
