The show follows mother Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel) through their lives in Stars Hollow, Connecticut, beginning with Rory’s acceptance to a prestigious high school and ending with her acceptance of her dream job in the finale. The show lasted seven seasons from 2000 to 2007.
“Gilmore Girls” became a quick hit with its unusual 70-to-80-page scripts focusing on a mother-daughter duo instead of broody teens. The show became available to stream on Netflix in October 2014.
The ATX Television Festival recently announced a “Gilmore Girls” reunion panel to be held in Austin, Texas, in June 2015. The panel will occur between June 4 and 7 and will feature Graham, Bledel and creator Amy Sherman-Palladino. The festival brings about excitement and hope of further “Gilmore Girls” reunions, as Sherman-Palladino has always made it known the show was incomplete.
The festival also announced a Writers’ Room Reunion panel for “Dawson’s Creek.” While the panel holds no new promise for a reunion, it will still allow for a new perspective on the show’s writing and writer intentions.
