Love this ensemble. Thankyou. Love everything about it. You look fantastic and you smell good, too, which you at home might not know. She smells like cookies. Thats really true. The fandom over Gilmore Girls. The return. Were you prepared for it . No. It is still very surprising. It is my honor to be in this show again and i just am so relieved that people largely seem to be pleased with the re disappointed. Thats right. The reactions been terrific. It is four parts, kind of like a year. Its all four seasons. Which is so exciting. We got a clip of your character chatting with her daughter, rory, when she moves back home. You remember to label my boxes because i know where nothing is. My boots, my coats, my underwear. You have no idea where your underwear is . Could be at lanes. Underwear since you moved . Dont judge. Im looking for my lucky outfit. I told you, lowkey obsessed with lorelei. Lot of people have named their child rory over the years. The quick clip of the dialogue which is perfect out today which is called talking as fast as i can, a collection of essays. In the show you talk like a mile a minute. Thats what the show is known for. It is always something i loved about it. Im sort of a fast talker myself. So the book is a collection of essays, including one about kind of what it was like to do the show the first time, then sort of a diary behind the scenes of the latest show. I just thought what an odd thing to get to do in a career. You know. Did you keep a journal knowing that you would want to the first time it was such a blur. There were so many episodes over so many years. When i tried to write about it i was like, the year where my hair looked weird . So i really kept a little more of a diary this time, also because it was such a special time and i was having such big moments all the time so i tried to keep track of them. Which is kind of cool. Not only did people respond to it but a lot of celebrities as well. Reese witherspoon i just found this out. You are not on social me we perused the internet and it wasnt hard to find all of these celebrities who had reaction to the show. Wow. Weve got the Reese Witherspoon with cheryl strade who wrote the book wild. Reese tweeted her love as well about this. My character goes on a big journey that has to do with wild and kind of separates the funny pop culture there. There i am camping. What could be more hilarious . Are you a camper . My boyfriends very outdoorsy so ive learned. In fact, one of the essays in the book is called before my rei card talking about whether i was single and some of the changes that happened in being with an outdoorsy person. Whats the number one thing that changed being with an outdoorsy person . I have fleeces now. An assortment of i have several different kinds of shoes for specific kinds of hiking. It was encapsulated of having this. Rei card. Its outdoor stuff. Ive been camping. You did the bear grylls her in an rei store is if Christian Louboutin made a hiking boot. Mae whitman your daughter from parent hood viewing the show. Mae also has a small cameo in the show. Basically if you were any of my loved ones i wanted you in the show and i put as many people as i possibly could. She never watched the show before and now has watched the whole thing. Its very gratifying. Thats so cool. Jason ritter, the other parenthood costar, tweeting so funny, moving, and allaround wolf. Aw. Its streaming on netflix. Were not going to say the four words that end the show which is kind of word because it is bingeing. You can watch the whole thing so you have to be careful about what you say. But it is kind of a cliffhanger. There will be any more . It is so funny because we spent all these years being asked if there was going to be a movie or if we were going to revisit the show. We thought, all right, we i think this is going to be the next line of questioning. I think on one hand we feel very proud of what we did and like it answered a lot of questions. On the other hand, it was such a joy for us all to do it and people some people seemed to be asking for more, so well see. It is like probably when you have a baby, then people say when is the next baby . Like whats the next thing . But thats a good thing. Well, in tv case. Rolling stone is out with the top right .

What she washed this like a month ago the long lasting scent of gain flings if getting lasik eye surgery, there may be some potential problems you need to consider first. Plus, big news when it comes to what age women should stop their mammogram screenings. Here with our medical minute, nbc contributor dr. Natalie aczar. So here is the backdrop to this. There has never been a consensus among influential medical groups how frequently they should be done, and when they should be stopped. All groups agree, however, that they are important and that they are life saving. The United StatesPreventative Services is task force many years ago made the recommendation to stop mammograms at the age ever 74 but a lot of important groups including the American Cancer Society recommends continuing them for, for example, if the longevity or Life Expectancy of a woman is greater than ten years. Just as an example. To kind of figure out, solve it problem, give us a little more at basically close to 7 million mammograms and covered about 3 1 2 million women to see whether or not there was a correlation between age and how well mammograms performed in terms of cancer detection. They basically found out that beyond age 75 up to age 90 there was still cancers that were detected and still utility and usefulness of doing. Basically the answer is, if you have women in your lives mothers or grandmothers over provider and see whether a mammogram is still right for them. On a yearly basis still . Again, there is no recommendation but many groups including the American Cancer Society would say yearly, yes. The lasik surgery. Researchers at food and Drug Administration found many people underwent the drug procedure experienced side effects like double images and glare. I am from the old school that lacers were used to kill people in james bond movies so i wont get one. Wh d is that we have known for some time that the study here, the headline, is not whether or not lasik is effective or safe. The studies in fact over the last couple of decades have shown that it is. The headline here is that there has not been until now whats called a validated questionnaire that doctors can actually give to their patients to follow signs and symptoms following lasik surgery. What was great about this study was that in fact they show that a small subset however experienced new symptoms when they had none to start but none of them impacted their lives. Again the takehome is not that there isuddenly these new and concerning symptoms following lasik surgery, but rather, there is a validated questionnaire that all doctors and Health Care Providers can administer to their patients to better follow up outcomes following lasik. It is great because it gives the providers that much more information about the procedure. Good advice. Youre not saying avoid lasik. Oh, no, absolutely not. Neither are the study authors.

Todays story comes to us from new jersey where 14yearold brothers jake and max klein have gone the extra mile to help spread the spirit of joy and giving. Reporter it is a huge turnout today at this high school in new jersey as many gather to donate canned foods, turkeys and other items to help the center for hope and safety, a womens shelter for the holidays. Today d overlping success raising enough food to provide 190 families with meals for the holidays. And that success can be attributed to the website kidsthatdogood. Com. Jake and max klein founded the website and have been instrumental in organizing communities to give every since this were a very young age. When they were 4 years old we did letters to santa and the their piggy banks and we went shopping for gifts for the kids. Go we decided some kids even in our own community might not be able to afford a present. We went to target, bought all the gifts, then went to the charity who distributed it. That was really moving and touching just that somebody needs it more than i do. When they were 6 or 7 they decided that they wanted to have their birthdays become charitable donations and they picked the charity and every year we would send out the birthday lieu of gifts with be this is the charity this year. Reporter over the years such birthday philanthropy included bulletproof vests for their local police department, laptops for the fire department, and cookies for kids cancer which then one kitchen denied them because of their age. Turning us down for our age was like crushing our dreams. That was the start of our website right there. The boys decided they wanted to put together a website for kids to find many ways to be charitable. Reporter max and jake created kidsthatdogood. Com. It launched about three months ago. It is exceeding our expectations right now. Every month we pick aha boys came to me with the idea of supporting the center for hope and safety, which is a Refuge Center for women and children affected by domestic violence. They were like, mom, we have to do something for these families. Like it is just not acceptable. That was it. Four days ago we posted on our website that we wanted everyone to donate to the food drive. And the turnout was absolutely overwhelming. Theres so many donations that came in today. Its really amazing what two raised. We felt that this was a big moment for us and we also felt that we helped the center very much. They went above and beyond, galvanized community support, inspiring so many children and families to give. Reporter in addition to todays drive, kids that do good has also been involved with initiatives the a the American Cancer Society, susan g. And local causes. For cause is too big or too small to support. Reporter it is through brothers max and jake that we can truly see the spirit of sharing kindness. I think they really embody the idea of share kindness. Hopefully it is contagious and they seem to get a smile on everyones face when they are doing it. I feel that share kindness means to help others and to give back to your community and help people that are less fortunate. Difference at in had he age. That is so awesome.

After nine years often the air the shows highly loyal fans have gotten their loose ends all tied up with the longawaited revival. All Gilmore Girls a year in the life. As for relationships, still complicated. We want it to be. Take a look. I was starting to feel claustrophobic. Wake up feeling like the house was closing in on me like i couldnt breathe. You know . Oh, yes, i know. And hold it. If you brings you joy, you keep it. If it doesnt, out it goes. No joy. Mom. Hes taking the dining room chairs. Then the dont bring me joy, we always say our all joy is nonnegotiable welcome. How was it . Back on the set, just like old times when you got there .

Alexis, did you all keep in touch over the years or did everyone splint you off, now time to come back together, hey, whats been going on . No. Potentially doing this but couldnt anticipated wed get a chance to actually do it. But, no. We would talk over the years, and see each other. See each other at events, too. Right . Yeah. But still a lot of catching up to do. I mean, ten years. Kelly, did you worry, it was such a magical time. Did you think to yourself, wow, if we try to reboot this and it doesnt go over well, should have left well enough alow . No. Id been wanting to do badgering amy for years. We should do a movie. So jealous of sex and the city. They got a movie we want a movie . They got two. Well, weve got four chapters. No. I was just so excited. And did get to finish it with amy. It always felt like wed been left in midair, a little bit. Yeah. A little weird. Some already binged it. Sit down and watchmegillah. What do you think the way theyre watching now . The creator of the series so wanted netflix to release them one at a time, because we all come from a time you look forward to the next one. Yes. Cant wait. And sort of digest it, the first one. Right. But this leaves it up to fans. So you can kind of do it the way youd like to do it. This is an impatient civilization. We want everything instantaneously. The computer age is what it is.

So what do you think, alexis, it is about this particular see and is captivating people again today . What is it about it . Oh, i think now its particularly comforting, given the times we live in, but it always had a very comforting feel. The town that we live in is just a place where everyone supports each other and is kind. And helps each other out. Thats something i think is just timeless, and you can always go back to it. Those kind of communities still exist today. Of course. When you live on the east coast, kind of hard toem country yeah. And usually you need tension. A horrible guy. Somebody everybody hates. That wasnt part of the drill of your show at all . It never was. Our show, sparkly dialogue and people having the amount of joy. The loss of ed gave the story a little more weight this time, because were all dealing with that, that loss in our own ways, and so i think it was perfect for the format to come back at a 90minute episode. More cinematic, and and something with a little more weight to it. When this ends, at the end of these episodes, if you binge watch and see the very end, is there a period on it or is there she wants the question. This is ellipses. Ellipses. In the business 40 years what is that . Oh, the dot, dot, dot, dot. 0 oh, okay. We learned something new from our fans . We had a bunch of fans who wanted to ask a question. Hear one . Oh .

And suzy welsh, our good friend, hereh selflessness and giving that will touch your heart. Hi. Hello. More than 6,000 u. S. Men and servicewomen lost their lives, many left children behind. We got to catch up with a very special family determined to let those family of Fallen Service members know they are not forgotten. Especially now at the holidays. Meet the rebacks. The florida family made up of mom, dad and 16 kids. You heard us right. 16 children. Hands full, but its not so much their hands that are full as it is their hearts. The family created american gold star christmas. A program aimed at helping children of Fallen Servicemen and women at the holidays, in ways both big and small. Tell me about the gold star christmas. So this christmas were helping connect families all across america with gold star families. Those who have lost a loved one in the service of our nations military and gold star families are able to register on our children would like for christmas and then every day ericans can go . Z online and decide to sponsor a child and purchase a gift em. Reporter mom leette got the idea to start the program when . J she noticed a social media post from a military widow feeling cash strapped wondering if there were programs available to help families like hers at the holidays. Realizing there were no programs in place, she and her family donating money, purchase themselves or gift cards, makingal Fallen Soldiers families feel special at this special time of year. We spent time with the family hitting the stores playing the role of santa claus. Checking the kids lists. Good job. Picking whats nice. No. Orange is my favorite. Bringing the items home to wrap and seal with a customized touch. Well, we wrap and then we put the ribbon around it, and we might put it few stamps on it, and then my sister glory will, like, draw cool designs for it. Is the house like a little factory . Looks like santa the workshop exploded. Theres tape, ribbon, flags, scissors, sharpies and gifts all over the place. Reporter karen vaughan, who lost her son, a navy s. E. A. L. To war says the program is invaluable. When its all said and done, his life for or what these kids know what theyre fathers gave their lives for. They understand, but the truth is, you wonder if the rest of america understands, and so when somebody like leette and her beautiful family come together to do such amazing acts of kindness, it really warms your heart. Good job. Good job. Good job. Reporter its often said its better to give than receive. And for the rebacks, the sentiment holds true, working hard at the holidays they say, is no sacrifice at all. Have made the ultimate sacrifice. This is gratitude. Uhhuh. We owe them a debt we can never repay. Being able to provide something at christmas to let them know that were thankful is really important. Wow. Unbelievable. Beautiful. So far the reback helps hundreds of military families through their program and like go to kathyleeandhoda. Com. Amazing. Beautiful. Teaching the children about the legacy of love theyre leaving.
