As a gamer who’s been around the block more times than Rory Gilmore’s car, I can’t help but feel like Lorelai when she found out her beloved ‘Gilmore Girls’ is now available on Hulu. The show that has warmed my heart and provided comfort during countless late-night gaming sessions is now accessible to a wider audience.
There’s now a second place find the residents of Stars Hollow.
Starting at midnight Pacific Time on Sunday, you can now stream “Gilmore Girls” on Hulu. This beloved show about a mother and daughter (Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel) set in a picturesque small town in Connecticut is now part of the Disney-owned streaming service under a non-exclusive licensing agreement. The series continues to be accessible on Netflix, where it has been available for quite some time. However, the Netflix-exclusive follow-up titled “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life” remains exclusive only to that platform.

Additionally, it experiences a surge in viewership every fall, a trend that creator Amy Sherman-Palladino attributes to the show’s comforting atmosphere.
Sherman-Palladino stated to The Hollywood Reporter in November that while the topic of fall is intriguing, it’s not entirely surprising because if people found solace and familiarity in it, it’s logical that there would be a part of it that truly delivers on that comfort and what draws them to it.
Sherman-Palladino remarked, ‘I find it astonishing that the series is larger now than ever during its original run. It’s just so peculiar.’ When we first began this show, children weren’t carrying cell phones. There was no social media. Instead, they resembled drug dealers from The Wire, as they had pagers.
