Time to clear your fall schedule, Gilmore Girls fans. In a new trailer released on Wednesday, Netflix revealed that your favorite mother-daughter duo will be returning to the small screen November 25. For those of you not well-versed in holidays, that particular day falls on Black Friday, so plan accordingly.

The reboot will consist of four 90-minute episodes spanning fall, winter, spring and summer. Expect to see plenty of familiar staples like Luke’s Diner and the Dragonfly Inn, along with most of the original cast—including Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel, Milo Ventimiglia and Melissa McCarthy. The miniseries will also offer up a few new treats like a call out to Amy Schumer, as seen in the trailer.

"Do you think Amy Schumer would like me?" Lorelai asks, to which Rory replies, "No." Schumer reportedly likes water skiing (with Jennifer Lawrence, at least) and we all know Loralai doesn’t mix well with outdoorsy activities.

As the A.V. Clubpointed out, Schumer isn’t as athletic as those paparazzi photos would have you believe. Responding to Lorelai’s question, she said:

I've only done 2 water sports and they took pictures of it both times. I promise I usually just lay there (sex too) https://t.co/yTQRvIBgqm
.@vulture I would love her!

With all four episodes hitting Netflix at once, creator Amy Sherman-Palladino advises you not to skip all the way to the end to catch the final four words of the series. "It really is a journey leading up to the last four words," she said, according to Vulture. "It's really going to mean a lot more if you've taken the journey. It's going to mean a lot less if you skip to the last page. That being said, what can I do? I would hope the people would want to take the whole trip."

A trip back to Stars Hollow from the comfort of my couch instead of standing in ridiculously long lines where people literally fight over discounted electronics? Count me in.
