AceShowbiz - A "Gilmore Girls" reunion is happening, though not on-screen. Stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel as well as series creator Amy-Sherman Palladino will attend a reunion panel at next year's ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas.
"So after years of peace and quiet these lunatics have chosen to get the chattiest chicks in the world back under one roof? Really? Okay," Palladino said in a statement. "You asked for it....'Gilmore' was the highlight of my ridiculous life. I can't wait to sit with these unbelievable broads and relive a time where sleep did not exist where stress and coffee were mama's little helpers and where we all dove into the deep end together to make something weird and very very cool."
The annual festival will also host a "Dawson's Creek" reunion with the creative team behind the series scheduled to attend the event. Showrunner/creator Kevin Williamson, showrunner Greg Berlanti, and producers/writers/assistants Jenny Bicks, Julie Plec, Rob Thomas, Liz Tigelaar, Paul Stupin, Rina Mimoun, Maggie Friedman, Anna Fricke, Gina Fattore and Dana Baratta are all booked to show up.
" 'Dawson's Creek' and Kevin Williamson changed my life and gave me a career," said Berlanti. "Nothing could be more exciting than to be back with so many people I respect and admire than my fellow writers from the show...and our amazing creator, Kevin."
The ATX Television Festival runs June 4-7, 2015. There's no word on when the "Gilmore Girls" and "Dawson's Creek" panels will take place.
