"Gilmore Girls" fans everywhere are clamoring for a chance to listen to Scott Patterson's new podcast in which he rewatches the entire series. But before that's set to launch, Patterson is revealing some intimate details about his time on the show.
Patterson, who played Luke Danes in the show, has never seen the show in its entirety, only watching the pilot episode and the "Winter" installment of 2016's "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life."
"I just don't like to watch myself," he told Today. "Typical actor thing. Makes me very uncomfortable."
Now, on his new podcast "I Am All In," Patterson will watch all 154 episodes of the series and relay his thoughts and feelings to adoring fans.
For one scene in particular, Patterson is amped to discuss on the podcast because it made him "really nervous." It was the scene in which Luke kisses Lorelai (Lauren Graham) for the first time.
"There was only one time I was really nervous on set - when we were preparing to do the first kiss," Patterson said in the interview. He went on to say that he was afraid of overdoing it.
"There's so many traps set up for a situation like that in an acting sense, where you can either do too little or too much. So, the nervousness from both of us was, 'Man, gosh, I hope we get this right,'" he said.
Luckily, Patterson was able to lean on his training for the execution of the scene.
"You sort of lean back on your training and your instincts. Like, 'Hey, how do I feel about this person? How does Luke feel about her? How would he react in this moment? And I'm very proud of what we did. Because I thought it had intensity, yet it was soft and tender," he concluded.
