Hype Podcast discusses “Winter,” the first episode of the Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life Netflix revival. Dedicated fans Pam and Marama have watched the entire revival, but Selina is staying spoiler free (for now). With that in mind, how does this return to Stars Hollow stand up, when considered as a single episode?

– Mad Men meets Stars Hollow, now we’re on Netflix
– Is this the alternate universe version of Rory that ASP always planned?
