Gilmore Girls Joins Start TV for 25th Anniversary

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Gilmore Girls will air daily on Start TV beginning May 12, 2025, offering fans and newcomers the chance to revisit or discover the beloved mother-daughter story of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore. Episodes will be broadcast weekdays at 5 p.m. ET/PT with an encore at 11 p.m., starting from the pilot and running in order. Known for its witty dialogue and multi-generational appeal, the show has remained popular since its original debut in 2000, later gaining new audiences via Netflix and inspiring the follow-up miniseries Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, which Start TV will also air. Start TV is positioning the series alongside its roster of strong female-led shows, highlighting its legacy as a cultural touchstone and one of Time magazine’s 100 Greatest TV Series of All Time. This move brings the series back to linear TV, making it accessible to those without streaming services and reuniting fans with the cozy charm of Stars Hollow. The anniversary celebration reflects Gilmore Girls’ enduring impact on television and its continued ability to attract new generations of viewers.
