Gilmore Girls stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel took the stage on a set that replicated their Stars Hollow home in the series. The former co-stars, who famously played mother and daughter Lorelei and Rory in the WB show, honored the 25th anniversary of the series that lasted for seven seasons and the revival Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life. "Twenty-five years ago, a show called Gilmore Girls apparently took the season of fall hostage," Graham said. (Based on several years of streaming data, fall is when a lot of people watch Gilmore Girls on Netflix.)

"In spite of our autumnal dominance, Gilmore was actually a very small show, meaning we had no money," Bledel said. "If there was a birthday at The Drew Carey Show next door, they would send us their leftover sheetcake," Graham said. "We saved up all year long to have one snow episode," Bledel said before Graham mentioning that E.R. also filmed on the same Warner Brothers lot. "And then ER would wet down their street and wash it all away." "They had Clooney! They could've let us have the damn snow," Graham quipped. In celebration of the show's anniversary this October, a new documentary, Searching For Stars Hollow, is in the works with stars Kelly Bishop, Jared Padalecki and Chad Michael Murray, among others. Stars from Law & Order are also set to take the Emmys stage to celebrate the show's anniversary. The original Law & Order show premiered on Sept. 13, 1990, marking its 35th anniversary in 2025. Elsewhere in at the Emmys, co-stars starring on current shows also presented together including Jenna Ortega and Catherine Zeta Jones from Netflix's Wednesday, Walton Goggins and Parker Posey from The White Lotus, and Sterling K. Brown with James Marsden and Julianne Nicholson for Hulu's Paradise. Brown revealed on his Instagram that he delayed surgery for his torn Achilles heel in order to attend the Emmys. "So, [I] gotta have surgery," he said, adding, "Gonna do it after the Emmys so I can motivate myself and go and try to celebrate with my cast and the producers of Paradise because we got recognized." The Apple TV+ series Severance led the nominees with a total of 27 noms, including best drama series. The Penguin followed with a total of 24 noms; followed by The Studio and The White Lotus with 23 apiece; The Last of Us with 16, Andor and Hacks with 14 each; and Adolescence, The Bear and The Pitt with 13 apiece. HBO and Max scored the most noms of all platforms. The 77th Emmy Awards was telecast live from the Peacock Theater at L.A. LIVE in Los Angeles Sunday on CBS and streamed on Paramount+.
