"Gilmore Girls," which is a touching series that follows mother and daughter Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory Gilmore (Alexis Bledel) from Stars Hollow, Connecticut is getting another shot at Netflix, much to the delight of the show's fans and cast members.

Yanic Truesdale, who portrays Michel Gerard (Lorelai's lovable colleague) in the series is one of those who were delighted by the news, and said that it's about time they give fans a "satisfying ending."

"Like anyone else that has been part of the show since day one, every day I feel the enthusiasm of fans and I'm very aware that the show is still very popular and relevant," he told Entertainment Weekly. "Ever since it's been on Netflix, it feels like the show just started all over again and when we went to Texas to the ATX (Television) Festival it was quite a thing. People flew from all over the world, from Brazil and Australia. They had to change venues twice to accommodate the very large number of people."

What surprised Truesdale was the fact that everyone in the room was in their 20s. When the show reached it peak in 2000, these audiences were only five years old, so Gerard is glad that they were able to get through a "whole new generation."

Now that the story of "Gilmore Girls" will be revisited and told again, the one thing Gerard hopes they would get right is the ending.

"I think it would be fair to say that, for everyone involved in 'Gilmore Girls,' it was not a satisfying ending. It wasn't supposed to end when it ended and it should have (ended with) Amy - it was her voice, it was her show," he said. "It's always been kind of frustrating that it didn't end properly and mainly that it wasn't told by the creator, so of course I think it would be fantastic for us and the fans to have a shot at the conclusion of all of these people, these characters that came beloved."

As for his character Michel, Truesdale assumes that he might either be back in Paris, alone, or still patronizing people. But Truesdale thinks that it would be a great idea to place Michel in unfamiliar territory.

"I was really kind of thinking where it would be interesting to see him today. One thing that crossed my mind that would be amazing to see, because it's so the opposite of what we've seen from this character, is him being a dad," he said.
