** The 2016 subverts the trope, as Rory spends "Fall" cleaning up her own romantic loose ends and ends the series single, as she did at the end of the series proper. She gets closure with Dean, who has moved on from their affair and is HappilyMarried with several children. She ends her affair with Logan for good, who presumably goes on to marry the fiance he was cheating on. The only romantic loose end that isn't cleaned up--and obviously so--is Jess, who is also single and heavily implied to still have feelings for her. The revival ends on a MaybeEverAfter as he gives her a LongingLook when he's sure she isn't paying attention. Rather than settle things, the revival introduces a LikeParentLikeSpouse LoveTriangle, with Jess and Logan now playing the roles of Luke and Christopher, respectively.
