About this episode

The episode discusses the imagined backstory of Emily and Richard from Gilmore Girls.

Our most highly anticipated episode of the summer (for us at least!) has arrived. We’ve been dreaming up what an Emily and Richard prequel would look like over the years and we’re finally here to talk about it all. What was Emily’s upbringing and family like? How did Richard and Emily first meet? Were Emily and Pennilyn Lott friends??? Grab a cup of coffee and get comfortable because Tara and Haley have more to say!
