“We want to make sure that like everybody walked away from this feeling fulfilled and that their characters got what was coming to them,” Sherman-Palladino explained. “Then, we throw up a few other little surprises that we had been talking about and toying with if we went longer, and we thought, ‘Well, we’re not. Let’s yank those back and put them in here so that everybody is in the pool.’”

Co-showrunner Daniel Palladino added, “We knew exactly where we wanted to end … And we just sort of like knew that these are our last markers that we wanted to hit towards the ending that we knew was going to be the ending from the very beginning.”

“Our cast and our crew became family in the best terms of the word family,” Amy Sherman-Palladino continued. “I will deeply miss them, and I will need a lot of therapy to get over [it] … It’s just a weird coven, like it’s Heaven’s Gate, and we’re all gonna put on all matching shoes and lie down and, like, go up to the mother planet together, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen because they’re all working. So yeah, it’s horrible. I’m very depressed.”
