"There's nothing like rewatching Gilmore Girls." It's a phrase I've heard more than a few times, but I never really understood it until I actually sat down and watched it. Gilmore Girls has been around for years, yet it still remains unknown to many people. It's a shame because it's the kind of show that everyone should be watching! It has everything you could ever want in a television series: romance, comedy, and a not-so-conventional family drama.
The Gilmore Girls are a mother-daughter duo that has been making waves since the early 2000s. Lorelai and Rory Gilmore made their debut on the small screen in 2000 and quickly became beloved by fans of all ages. The show ran for seven seasons, with each one following the two women in a hurricane of family ups and downs and finding comfort in each other, despite everything. But Gilmore Girls has always been about more than just Lorelai and Rory. It's about their whole family — including Emily Gilmore, whose wit and charm have made her one of the most interesting characters on the show.
Gilmore Girls is a show that's so good and so smart that it's almost too easy to quote. But we've rounded up our favorite lines from the series in one place — just in case you need a reminder of what makes the show so memorable! From Lorelai's one-liners to Rory's comebacks, here are the best Gilmore Girls quotes that prove why it's worth watching again and again.
