We’re deep into fall — have you started watching Gilmore Girls yet? The mother-daughter dramedy starring Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel is a seasonal touchstone for many, according to viewing data.

Gilmore Girls started streaming worldwide on Netflix in 2016. And since 2021, when Nielsen started releasing weekly ratings for original and acquired shows on streaming platforms, it’s been getting an autumnal boost. The show originally aired seven seasons, from 2000 to 2007, on The WB and later The CW.
