Vanessa Marano On Playing Luke’s Daughter, April, On ‘Gilmore Girls’ | TODAY Originals
April did not break up Luke and Lorelai; Luke and Lorelai's horrible communication did (still love them though).
Agreed
And Luke's insecurities
Thank you so much! I was just about to say that. April didn't break them up, and Vanessa Marano definitely didn't break them up. How nuts is it that people blamed a (real) child for the break up of two (fictional) adults? I thought her character was great, and really expanded the possibiities for growth in Luke beyond his relationship with Lorelai (or with Jess, but that was such a chest thumpy male relationship).
Right? It's not April's fault she was born and wanted to meet her father. People can be such idiots!
Yes, and Anna didn't help either.
April wasn't the problem... April's mom was...and luke being weird with Lorelai. The kid was cool
Right😂 It had nothing to do with her
Yeah I always liked April, her friendship with Rory was really cute
Yes, like not wanting to marry her anymore when he found out that he had a daughter. So annoying, but I love them haha
April's mom wasn't the problem either. I used to think she was problematic when I was younger, but now, being a full adult I don't she her that way.
The only two confrontation Anna had with Luke/Loreilai on the April front were:
-The birthday party incident. Even though she could have handled it more gracefully taking into consideration that the event was actually a success, I can see why she was angry that it was facilitated by a complete stranger! She was the one who knew the parents of the kids in attendance, she was the one they were trusting with taking care of their children, she would have been the one they held accountable had anything gone wrong, so giving full control to someone, who has never even benn introduced to Anna without notifying her was a very poor decision...
-The NM move. In which she was also right. She did not say Luke will never get to see April, she was saying that she wanted to have April settled, before arranging any trips back "home" for her. If she was really homesick in NM it would not have benefited her if she was to spend every other weekend or so "back home", because it would have made the transition even harder for her.
Anna was actually the responsible adult in these situations, who had a fair amount of experience in being a single parent and therefore baring all the responsibilities and difficulties on her own, and Luke was the rookie in the game, who never thought things proporly through, he always acted upon his first instinct...
Agreed
That’s so weird I didn’t know people hated her. Her character is so cute.
Same
Me neither, I just found out about it. For me she was awesome, cute, smart, corky, funny... and definitely innocent in all of this
I think people hated what April *represented* (a road block between Luke & Lor) more than they hated the *actual* girl. There are *SEVERAL* people who have commented here that April wasn't really the problem, as much as Luke & Lor's lack of communication was what *REALLY* threw a monkey wrench into their relationship at that time. Luke didn't tell Lor about April when he should have, and Lor didn't talk to Luke about Christopher. Those observations are so spot on to me!!!!!
It’s kinda like how people hated Dawn from Buffy... she appeared out of nowhere and was simply thrown in as a wrench to create more drama and complicate the story even more
I agree! ❤ @@storyofcory
Luke having a daughter wasn’t nearly as horrible of a storyline as Lorelei marrying Christopher
That's because Amy Sherman Palladino left the show at the end of season 6, so the "AYITL" revival was how she originally wanted Season 7 to end. Luke and Lorelai married and Rory in that situation with Logan.
i wanted lorelai and chris together lol
@@Danielle-eo5im no❤️
@@mckennasmith8501 yes
I'm glad they did it. They needed to play it out so that everyone could know it's wrong for her.
I didn't mind the April storyline, what I hated what Luke was such a hypocrite. He harped on Lorelai to tell him the truth and communicate and be honest with him about stuff she does in her life (i.e. Christopher). Then this huge thing happens to him and he hides it and lies and then just makes it worse and worse. Yeah Anna played a role and should have told Luke way back when, but Luke was the reason they broke up.
it was a bad written storyline, luke was out of character and lorelai too and it's full of plot holes and it makes no sense
100% agree
Yes!!!! 100% agree with your comment! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁
Disagree, Lorelai wasn't patient with Luke. Lorelai wanted Luke to always accept when Lorelai said she didn't want to marry until Rory was back... then Luke found out about April and I Luke wanted to bond with April...Lorelai would have taken over she would have tried to be the parent... Lorelai broke them up when she came back impatient demanding to get married and the she went and slept with Christopher! Theres something wrong with that. Luke needed more time and Lorelai didn't even really give him much time at all.
@@rachelwhiddon5343 agree!!! i still don't think luke was right by not introducing lorelai and april but i still agree. the relationship ending was both their faults
I didn't hate April. I understood her. Who I hated and think should hold the blame is Anna.
No. I loved Anna but April was just such a weird af character. Like, SO over the top
If Luke was honest, their relationship would have been fine tbh
Luke should have been told that he had a daughter!
I loved April in the revival. “IVE ONLY SMOKED POT ONCE. I ATE SO MUCH CHEESE AFTER” 🤣🤣
Underrated line! My one and only experience with Marijuana was precisely the same! 😆
Unpopular Opinion: Anna Nardini broke up Luke and Lorelai. Not April.
Yes!
@@sydneycandelaria8050 I kinda thought she(Anna) was jealous of Luke and Lorelai.
She did ! Luke however did too he could have saved the relationship at that time as well .
Yes! I don't know why the entire GG fandom blames April instead of Anna. She was just a kid.
Anna defintiely did but tbh april did play a role without even knowing
unpopular opinion: I like April, she is pretty funny, and I like to see April and Luke scenes
Same here c
It really showed a softer awkward dad side of Luke and I really loved it
I wasn't expecting to get all this likes-
I think that's a very popular opinion. I love her too
I LOVE April. I think she was one of the more realistic characters on the show. She was awkward without being a joke and nerdy without being too clever. I wish she got to have a closer relationship with Rory because they were similar in a lot of ways
She was kinda like Rory #2 Bc Rory got older.
I think they didn't have rory and April have a closer relationship because she was crazy smart as her and them 2 together would've lost a lot of viewers because like Kelly bishop said in her interview you have to be of a certain intellect to follow the show them 2 together would've lost a lot of viewers
Luke broke Luke and Lorelai up NOT April, and not Anna. April was a child who just wanted to know the father that she never met, and Anna was a mother who just didn't want her daughter with a stranger. It was Luke's job to make Anna feel comfortable with Lorelai around April. It was Luke's job to show Anna that Lorelai was not just some woman, that she was his fiancé that she was going to be in his life for the rest of his life, and in turn she is going to always be in April's life too. Luke was the reason Luke and Lorelai broke up.
yes! every time I watch it I think LUKE! Tell Lorelai NOW and let her be a part of this WITH you, she's your fiance.
Yeah and Luke knew it!! Hence the guilt party he threw for Rory (last episode!) April was awesome
Exactly. Which is why i never got why people are “Team Luke” for Lorelai. He was so toxic.
Exactly.
WHY didn't Lorelai talk to Luke? Lorelai can babble about the MOST IDIOTIC stuff for days, but she can't talk to Luke about the wedding or anything else. Lorelai was equally at fault for the breakup & then for her to go hop into Christopher's bed was nearly unforgiveable.
April is not a bad character her existence was just random. Vanessa is a great actor though, I love her for being such a fan. And she was great in Switched At Birth.
oh that was her in switched at birth. loved her!
I loved her as Bay in Switched at Birth!
Yes I loved her as Bay, she is a wonderful actor and so beautiful!
But I guess when you find out you have a child you don't know about it can be pretty random. Or out of the blue. and all of a sudden your life changes. Like I know someone who found their dad and just sent them a Facebook message. I'm sure that father's life suddenly changed because he found out he had a daughter over one quick message. so I mean I guess it would make sense if you felt like it was random but I feel like thats what makes it realistic
Vanessa is such a likable person lol I love how bubbly and excited she is
I actually like April more than Rory. She was a normal, awkward, very clever kid and yet her intellect and virtues were never exaggerated. She went to MIT and then graduate school. So she's clearly very focused and has her priorities straight. She's also passionate and a go-getter. We see from the revival that she can fight for a cause she believes in. She was just a good, well rounded character. It would have been fun seeing her development.
And whilst many people say they would have liked to have seen her interact with Rory, personally I would have liked to have seen her interact with Jess. Rory's a lost cause. I actually feel that April is a foil to Rory's character. Everything Rory was falsely hyped up to be April actually is.
Rory was a generally good and smart kid, whose intellect was very exaggerated; as was her 'goodness'. She got into Yale with the help of a very expensive private education; struggled in said private school; struggled at Yale and could never cope with struggling. She was ok as long as things were easy for her, but the minute they got hard...
I mean College Rory would have frowned on anyone taking cannabis whilst happily participating in affairs herself. She was judgemental, and quiet hypocritical.
Rory had a 4.2 at Yale at one point. I don't think her intellect was exaggerated. Struggling to do hard things doesn't mean you're not smart, it means you're being challenged. Nevertheless, she definitely made a lot of bad decisions.
@@olat2597 Did she have a 4.2 GPA? Because they never showed us anything to support that tidbit.
And Rory never did well with challenging environments. She was only good so long as things were easy for her, the minute they became challenging she'd pack it in.
I did more than the normal number of A-levels and then a Literature degree. It was definitely challenging, and I had moments of self doubt but I always persevered and pushed myself to do better and meet the challenges. I didn't throw in the towel the moment I had a more difficult assignment or less than glowing feedback. Rory couldn't cope with one of the most basic aspects of academic life - things get challenging, you have to deal with it and stretch yourself to continually do better.
I must say, I emphatically agree with this assessment of Rory. I grew up academically-gifted and thus was essentially sequestered in school with other brainy, ambitious, high-achieving, gifted kids. I knew that hyper-judgmental, overly-critical, yet weak type of girl! They are very common! So accustomed to being placed upon a pedestal since childhood that they cannot tolerate an ounce of challenge or criticism. Ugh. Being around such individuals, one in particular, was a very unnerving and trauma-inducing environment.
Same
@@AvecPoesie while i’ve had a very similar experience as a low income gifted and talented kid, i can’t help but have empathy for them. the difference between them & us is that we knew the capitalistic idea of failure was a possibility. we saw it growing up & we knew that if our lives turned out “average”, it would be okay, because that’s just how it is. but these privileged kids, they’ve never had a change to get that. the concept of failure is unknown to them until they experience it, and its a world breaking moment. plus having high income parents typically means they expect you to follow exactly in their footsteps which is not an easy task at all. they’ve never *had* to work to be seen as the golden child, so once they have to work, they don’t understand why it’s not going perfectly. we got to know we weren’t really more special than anyone else, they never did. sorry this is long, i just truly do feel bad for people who were never able to develop that skillset. its all a fault of the parents, not the child. they can be hard and yes, i’ve had trauma at their hands too. but i do understand where they’re coming from. there’s a difference between weak & sheltered. they’re not weak, they just were never taught how to recover from failure because that was an impossibility to everyone around them. i know a lot of ppl hate rory, i just can’t despite knowing the exact type of person she is up close.
How Luke handled April being in his life is what broke up him and Lorelai, not April! Do you blame a child when parents divorce? Of course not! Don't get why viewers blame April....so cruel and to spread the hate to the actress is so wrong. It's a tv show people 🤔
The fact that people actually attacked the actor is insane. People are weird!
April wasn’t the problem. It’s how Luke handled her coming into his life
I can’t believe people hated April! The storyline was a weird thing to throw in BUT as a character, she was great! You did a great job playing her Vanessa.
I liked seeing their bond grow in season 7
How can you NOT like April??? She is such a great character!
I dont blame April. I blame Luke for not playing open cards with Lor. And Anna freaking out and said she will take her away from Luke if Lor sees her again
& then April tries to set Luke up with her biology teacher bc she feels guilty!
It wasn’t April’s fault, Lorl & Luke weren’t communicating well at all.
I loved April. I always wished there had been more Rory, Lane and April time - I feel like Rory and Lane would have helped April, and April help them know what was "cool". She didn't break up Luke and Lorelai at all - Anna treated Luke badly, and Luke didn't trust Lorelai.
Luke didn't NOT trust Lorelai. He clearly told her that he wanted to get to know April first before introducing them because he knew April would love her.
No, April did not break them up. It was Luke's handling of the situation that broke them up. Also the nonsense with April's mother having a problem with Lorelai and April having a relationship.
Typically, once a couple on a show gets together and they are happy, they tend to get boring so this was clearly a contrived roadblock to create drama.
CDG1228 she said she had a problem with it if Lorelai wasn’t going to be permanent in Luke’s life. Which was her right to say as April’s mother. If Luke and Lorelai were actually solid, there wouldn’t have been a breakup. They had issues that needed to be addressed and they didn’t address them. Lack of communication ended them.
@@wordeeone4996 They were solid until April came into the picture. Luke gets mad because Christopher calls, declares they must to be honest with each other, then he keeps a huge secret from his fiancee. Lorelai finally gets tired of him shutting her out and gives him an ultimatum.
He also began his relationship with April by letting Anna calling all of the shots after her keeping his daughter from him for 12 years. She can feel however she wants as April's mother but Luke should have stood up for Lorelai and her position in his life.
Theoretically, things would have played out a lot differently if LUKE had made better choices and communicated better.
CDG1228 ok
Also, rory, lorelei, and April time too😊
She didn’t break them up. She was a child. Luke not telling Lorelei and Lorelei’s ultimatum broke them up. It was poor communication. I loved April. I wish that we could have seen more with her and Rory in later seasons. I think they would have had a cool relationship and have been able to relate to each other.
I loved April. I didn't love how Anna steamrolled Luke into thinking Lorelai was a problem and not going to be there forever. It made him secretive about his life and wanting to keep April separate. I started watching Switched at Birth because of Vanessa's time on Gilmore Girls and also because it was a show about Deaf and Hard of Hearing people like me.
I discovered Gilmore Girls earlier this year and you were one of my favorite characters
I hope we see a video like this of her and talking about Switched at birth. She is an amazing actrice
I love her so much. I miss Switched at Birth and always loved April. She was awkward in a relatable way. Honestly she has a lot in common with like Rory tbh.
This was worth every second. It's great learning that Ms. Marano was basically a super-fan before joining the show. She's so different now because she's older, it's cool to hear she's an April fan now. As a fan of "Switched at Birth", I didn't know I had already seen her in anything else, and then I saw older-April in "A Year in the Life". I was like "Wait, that's HER?? SHE was April??" Then I went on IMDB and confirmed it. She's great in both shows, and I can't imagine anyone hating her as either character. April was seriously quirky, like revenge-of-the-nerds quirky-cool. I'm glad the online haters didn't affect Ms. Marano. She seems cool as well. Great interview.
Aw I loved April. I don't know why people thought she broke them up. She literally just did what the adults allowed her to do, and the adults were having faulty communication. I feel like a lot of people who watched it once they got older might have understood that better- probably why that side was not on social media about it at the time.
She is the sweetest person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I was an extra in a movie called Dear Lemon Lima and she just hung out with us, chatted, etc. It was all very normal. Also, I liked April. Her character was cute. Her sister is adorable too.
Honestly, I always really liked April. She was about my age when I was growing up and watching the show and I always found her kinda relatable. :) I was never one of those big shippers that cared deeply about who Rory or Lorelai ended up with. I just liked the cute town and the funny people in it.
I loved April but I hated her mom and blamed her for the breakup not April
I agree. I liked April. She gets a bad rap! Luke should have told Lorelai and Lorelai shouldnt have been selfish he didnt tell me how dare he. But Anna made everything worse that controlled everything in Aprils life and she didnt tell Luke he had a daughter so it wasnt his fault he wasnt around. Ps this actress is very beautiful and funny.
I loved April. She reminded me a lot of me. Which was so nice to see.
Summary of the comments section- "April didn't break them up, Luke did" .
I agree with that but I didn't know that there's so much hate for Christopher!
I looked so much like April when I was in my preteens. I related so much and loved her for it! 🥰
Even though I was around 12 when I discovered GG, I have gotta admit that April was not that relevant for me the first time around but after 10 years and a couple re-watches I find her a funny kid who appears to give Luke more of a voice in the show ( background, flaws...) So thanks!
I was very impressed with April every time she was on screen, Marano is a great actress -- very well-crafted craft from such a young age.
Love April💗 you did such a good job!
I LOVE April. She did not break them up! Luke did with the way he handled it all
April didn't break them up - it was how Luke dealt with her being in his life. I hate to say it, but it seemed like he was constantly using April as a way to distance himself from the relationship, and I'm not sure why :\
I think, Lorelai spending the night at Christopher's house and not telling him made him more insecure about her.
I don't think she broke them up. I just found April really annoying and a really unnecessary addition. She was the cousin Oliver of Gilmore Girls.
I loved April! It was wonderful that Luke has his own Rory. It was great to see her in the new series which she wasn’t in long enough. I’d love to see April more if they do a Gilmore Girls movie. I hope they have more interactions with Rory and April as sisters/The Gilmore-Danes family. I’d like to see April in her career as an MIT graduate, probably working for NASA lol
I loved April! She was so cute and funny. Luke grew so much from their relationship! Lorelai's drama and Luke's immaturity broke them up
I loved April!!!! So adorable 😍
I never got the April thing. It’s like when they put Dawn in the fifth season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (though I did end up liking her after season 5, lol)
When she came in I was honestly shocked. I kinda wanted Lorelei and Luke to have their own kid...it was kinda a disappointment but ya know...it is what it is lol. Even though it's kinda the same thing with Lorelei and Rory...she had Rory with another dad so oh well lol XD
I love this actress!
Omg why are we getting Gilmore Girls content??? Is something gonna happen ahhah
Because it was the 20TH anniversary
Yes!!! I’m November!! Netflix
Omg! 20 years ago!
I loved April. She didn't break Luke and Lorelai up. LUKE DID.
I'm watching a Chopped Junior episode and Vanessa is a judge, and I'm like.... who the heck is that? I totally recognize her but can't place it! So I had to search, and ended up here. So funny! I did binge watch Gilmore Girls again for the umpteenth time this year... Totally a 2020 thing to do! YAY! Thanks Vanessa! I loved April! :D
I love April! Seeing Luke as a Dad was so nice and I wish we could have seen more tbh. But he was so in the wrong to not tell Lorelai and then keep April from her. Even in AYITL, I was so disappointed that Luke still kept them separate. It just doesn't make sense.
I love April Nardini so much!!! ❤❤❤
She's adorable! 🥰
I didn't know anybody hated April. April was awesome. Luke just freaked out about her existence. Lorelai was hurt by Luke's shutting her out. Anna went off on Luke and Lorelai because she was upset about it when he finally stopped shutting her out. Then, Lorelai freaked out and said marry me now or we're breaking up. Luke reacted badly to being put on the spot and needed a minute to process. Lorelai then sought solace in Chris's arms because he's her drug of choice when she's upset. So then understandably Luke didn't want to be with her anymore. Other than her existence being the catalyst for the communication issues, April didn't have anything to do with it.
Luke shouldn't have shut Lorelei out! Lorelei shouldn't have run back to Chris!
I loved April’s character so much
I didn't like Anna Nardini. She was horrible! April was fine.
I loved April ❤️ Her character and the fact that Vanessa played her made my love for the name April increase 💝
I loved April so much. Almost more than I loved Logan which to be honest, I didn’t think was possible. I was a little late to the GG game. I didn’t start watching it until 4 years ago. I binge it about once a year now.
I liked the April character, she was funny. It was also interesting to see how Luke would deal with a daughter suddenly, also because April was so unlike him. It’s been a while since I’ve watched the show, but in my memory April immediately liked Luke, despite him being so different from her. And there was no bad feelings about missed time or having to catch up. It was like: “Oh so he is my dad? Cool!” That’s heartwarming.
I liked April and despite what some fans may think. I think it was a good idea the storyline. Shes grown up to be a beautiful young woman.
I’m also obsessed with this show and I’m not a new fan who found this out on Netflix. I used to watch this show with my sister when I was about 14 years old every afternoon after school on warner channel and we used to drink coffee while watching this.
Love April. Great acting.
I always loved April who else thinks she and Rory would have been friends if they were the same age I swear April reminds me of Rory nerdy funny and her own person
I loved Vanessa Marano as an actress! She was so cute as April. I adored her as Bay from Switched at Birth. I recently saw her in a movie with her sister called "Finding Zoe." Highly recommend it!
for me S6, E13 ( friday night's Alright for fighting) is my all time favorite, that last par was the best.
April and Luke’s dynamic was perfect and I loved them
I love Vanessa Marano!!! she can play so play Faith in Buffy or a younger sister
Faith, baby sister of Buffy, was probably the inspiration for April! GG creator Amy is a huge fan of 5x5 buffy!
I loved April. Especially the salt and pepper shakers, because that was me.
luke having a daughter was such jumping the shark but vanessa was and is so lovely
I feel bad that she was attacked on social media. That's awful. I know what that is like and I see it still all the time, and it's not okay people. I also don't feel that her character broke up Luke and Lorelai that they broke it off because it wasn't their time to be together in that moment. They still needed time to grow, and they did. I always knew that Luke and Lorelai would end up together, and when that happed nothing and no one would stand in their way. On another note I still trying to figure out who got Rory pregnant?
it's obvious, Logan, just like it would have been in the original season 7.
For the record, I loved April, I hated her mom. ❤️
I never hated April! She is an odd little surprise, but I definitely grew to love her because Luke loves her!
Wow, I had no idea people hate on April. I actually like April from the get go. She’s really great as Luke’s daughter.
i love her positive attitude about haters
Let's make it very clear that April is luke's daughter! Her existence did NOT break up luke and Lorelei, luke needed to be a father before a husband!
yeah....his daughter comes first
I love Vanessa. I've known Vanessa long before I decided to binge-watch Gilmore Girls. Seeing her on tht show made me super excited and happy. I never viewed it as April broke up Luke and Lorelai. I didn't even hear about this until now. Luke wanted to be a father full time to April, that's why he broke up with Lorelai. That's his own personal way of thinking he can't be a good father if he's in a relationship. That is not the general way of life.
Also the salt shakers thing isnt that weird. I wouldn't think of it just by looking around, but if someone asked me to do it, I would find it enjoyable for some time.
"I always liked her!"
Were is our new season?
I loved April she was a really nice character
#VanessaMarano Wow you really grew up beautiful! I was an April fan from the get-go! I love smart kids!
I loved Gilmore girls I own all of the seasons. I thought the April character was adorable.
April wasn’t a huge deal, it’s just how Luke acted after she came in
Oh this makes me miss GG. Time to rewatch.
I LOVED April!!! You were a beautiful smart girl! Arguably smarter than Rory! I loved you on the show! You are a great actress!!!!!
I didn't start watching Gilmore girls until way after I fell in love with switched at birth so by the time I heard of it and watched it and saw Vanessa and was like OMFG it's baby Bay I just loved the show even more!
I loved her character and never understood the hate she got!
I love her 😊
I quite liked April but didn’t like her Mom. Luke n Lorelai were bad at communication that is why they broke up.
She is so pretty!
She’s fabulous.
Her voice is so unique
I had such a strong feeling she was related to laura marano. Also i didnt hate april, i didnt want luke to have a daughter but I liked her as a character
I think that most of the people hate April because of the storyline she brought into the show. I mean, it was so out of the blue and not at all someone expected in the show. It was like watching a soap opera, and GG clearly wasn’t. A hidden daughter who wants to find her father just because she’s doing a science project?! A hidden daughter?! No thanks! It really doesn’t suit the style of the show. It’s so sad to see what happens next... but the most important thing is that Lorelai and Luke get back together in the end 🥰
I loved April! But sorry Vanessa, I had never seen Gilmore Girls until it was on Netflix recently. I love that you took it all in stride. People who "hate" characters need to take it out on writers not actors!
OK, first of all, I *adore* Vanessa Marano!!! She's a REALLY good actress. I love how she played this gawky kid on GG, and is now a natural beauty on-screen.
Secondly, she makes a VERY, VERY good point when she brought up 1.) the fact that a girl's education was a central part of the show, and 2.) so was a woman owning and running her own business.
I'm a guy who considers himself pretty progressive. I think, maybe, deep down, I liked those two things too, without really realizing it, and perhaps that is a factor of why I loved this show as much as I did.
I love April. Shes a great character. I wasnt watching during the original run of the show. But I was all in for April and her mom in the storyline.
I loved April!!! It wasn't her fault that they broke up. Luke kept putting the wedding off and finding excuses is what broke them up. But they remained friends
The actress is beautiful 🥰
Omg just googled her she also was in switched at birth used to watch that show !! Shes done soo much after gilmore girls but because she was so young in gilmore girls I never regconized her 🙀
I never thought it was April’s fault😂 she was a kid. I just thought she was funny
Omg you totally fit right in, I was too young to even realize there was a scandal, but was as obsessed as the next girl and damnit that's a shame!
