That's basically exactly what happened bright and early this morning, when Netflix unveiled their pop-up Luke's Diners across the country, and Gilmore Girls fans had like, zero chill about it.

From 7 a.m. to 12 p.m., over 200 coffee shops and cafes were magically transformed into Luke's, complete with a giant cut-out of Luke — a token Luke sign telling everyone that there are NO MAN BUNS ALLOWED (a few probably snuck in, though).
Luke sure does love his rules. pic.twitter.com/31WP0Db5WE

The coffee cups handed out had an adorable Luke's sleeve on them, and underneath, a quote from Gilmore Girls, because honestly, that's the only kind of motivational quote we need.

Lots were sharing that they were skipping their ~adult responsibilities~ for Gilmore Girls. But let's be real
Gilmore Girls > everything else.
I missed class for 20 minutes of pictures but it was totally worth it❤️ #LukesDiner pic.twitter.com/RtLSiDYolB

While these Luke's across the country might be one-day-only, Luke's Diner forever lives in our hearts. And soon, it will live once again on our televisions, and honestly, that's what REALLY matters.
