Cue those wistful “la las”: “Gilmore Girls” and all seven of its cozy, quirky seasons will be sadly leaving Netflix at the end of June. “It’s a show? It’s a lifestyle. It’s a religion. We are sorry to say that Gilmore Girls Seasons 1-7 will be leaving Netflix in the US on June 30,” the streaming service announced in a statement on X, affectionately referencing one of The WB dramedy’s many iconic quotes. “Raising a cup of coffee to every fan who visited Stars Hollow with us.”The removal of the beloved series — which stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel as a preternaturally close thirtysomething mom and teenage daughter who live in a loveably weird, close-knit town in Connecticut but have a distant relationship with their own well-to-do family (played by Kelly Bishop and Edward Herrmann) — is part of the platform’s regular refresh of its offerings, with new film titles and television programs coming in and out of the streamer’s vast library on a monthly basis.However, it’s an especially notable exit as Netflix has been a streaming home for the sweet mother-daughter story for a whopping 12 years, having arrived on the platform back in 2014. It was also the network behind the sequel miniseries “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life,” which premiered in 2016. That four-part revival, too, will be leaving Netflix, but not until November, so you still have a few months to binge it if you haven’t already.But hope is not entirely lost, Gilmore diehards! The original “Gilmore Girls” isn’t leaving the streaming world entirely and will still be available to watch on Hulu and Disney+ in July and beyond. And as of press time, there are no reports that the series will be leaving those platforms anytime soon.
