{ "item_title" : "Behind the Counter Autographed", "item_author" : [" Scott Patterson "], "item_description" : "ⓘAUTOGRAPHED EDITIONBuy Unsigned CopyDue to limited stock, multi-copy orders may be reduced to 5 copies per customer.From Scott Patterson, the fan favorite actor best known for playing Luke Danes in Gilmore Girls, comes a heartfelt memoir about his time on the show and how it has shaped his life.From the moment Scott Patterson read Luke Danes's first line in the pilot script for a new whip-smart TV show Gilmore Girls, he knew exactly who this character was. From How many cups have you had this morning (description: scruffy though handsome man in his thirties with the body of fireman under his apron), he could tell that Luke came from the Northeast, just like him. He was a hard worker, from a long line of hard workers. The script felt comfortable and the characters felt real, lived-in. From the very beginning, it was clear that Gilmore Girls was going to be different from anything else on television. Seven seasons, 153 episodes, and millions of watches and rewatches later, Luke Danes is an instantly recognizable, well-loved character and Scott has lent his talents to a wide variety of shows and movies from the Saw franchise to the Gilmore Girls reboot in 2016.In these pages, Scott shares never-before-heard stories about his time on the set of one of the most beloved shows of the 2000s, from the audition where he wouldn't let himself believe he'd get the part to meeting the cast for the first time, the seasons-long ride of Luke and Lorelai's relationship, and pushing Jess (Milo Ventimiglia) into the lake. He also delves into his own history, writing of his time in minor league baseball, his own father leaving his family, and many other stories that helped him become the person that he is today.For years, Scott has guarded his past, treating his personal life as sacred space in the same way that Luke treated the diner. There were long-held secrets he felt needed protecting, stories he couldn't yet share. But over the years Scott met more and more Gilmore Girls fans and listened to their stories, which they shared with the intimacy of talking over the linoleum counter. And he realized that it was time to set his own story down. So come behind the counter. Push some tables together if you want to. Settle in and get ready for a good story, some homespun wisdom, and more than a few cups of coffee along the way. But please, no cell phones.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/53/879/078/1538790785_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "30.00", "online_price" : "30.00", "our_price" : "30.00", "club_price" : "30.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
