"I'm attracted to pie. It doesn't mean I feel the need to date pie." - Lorelai Gilmore


Rory and Lorelai Gilmore. The mother-daughter relationship that's been making everyone jealous since the early 2000s. "Gilmore Girls" finished with 7 seasons, not including the additional 4 episodes set nearly a decade after the finale. The OG fans have watched this at least 2 times through on Netflix.

Through the years, we've been through so much with these characters. Lorelai going back and forth between Luke and Christopher, Rory figuring out her emotions, and so much more. Stars Hollow is the storybook town we all wish we could live in.
