\n\tGilmore Girls<\/a> is no longer on Netflix<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs of July 1, the series is now streaming on Prime Video<\/a>, marking the end of an era after 12 years of enduring popularity at its former longtime streaming home that even led to a short-lived revival<\/a> (which will stay on Netflix, by the way).<\/p>\n

\n\tGilmore Girls is a reliable seasonal fall favorite for U.S. audiences, repeatedly ranking in the Nielsen streaming charts from roughly September to January each year. Last year, 18 years after the series finale, Gilmore Girls entered the charts the week of September 8 with 534M across Hulu and Netflix. <\/p>\n

\n\tWhat\u2019s most interesting is that Gilmore Girls has attracted not only nostalgic audiences who grew up watching during its original run from 2000-06 on the WB and 2007-08 on the CW. The coming-of-age series also has found itself a new generation of fans over the past decade-plus as an SVOD offering.<\/p>\n

\n\tPer Nielsen, two-thirds of the viewership from September 8-14 was from women and 35% from adults 18-34.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Netflix departure may seem less significant now, since the streamer has shared Gilmore Girls with Hulu since 2024<\/a>. But, for the decade prior, Gilmore Girls already was speaking to a whole new generation of fans with its resurgence on Netflix alone.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the fall season prior to the Hulu deal, Gilmore Girls\u00a0was No. 8 in the\u00a0Nielsen streaming charts<\/a>\u00a0for Netflix with 640M viewed. At the time, the measurement service noted that 56% of its audience was in the 18-34 age demo.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s difficult to quantify the early reception to Gilmore Girls when it originally arrived on Netflix in 2014, because there is not reliable or consistent audience data from that period. Nielsen began regularly distributing its streaming Top 10 in 2020.<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, Netflix\u2019s enthusiasm for the series was clear early on when, just over a year after the original episodes started streaming, the company announced the revival Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life<\/a><\/a>. The series of four 90-minute telepics premiered in 2016. While Netflix wasn\u2019t releasing its own streaming data at that time, Deadline reported that A Year in the Life performed quite well<\/a>. Preliminary numbers from research firm Symphony Advanced Media placed it third in the 18-49 demo behind\u00a0Fuller House and\u00a0Orange is the New Black\u00a0during its first three days.<\/p>\n

\n\tBy the time Netflix rolled out its own annual data dump, the revival was already seven years old. Yet, from 2023-25, A Year in the Life has generated 18.2M views on its own. Add in all seven seasons of the original, and Gilmore Girls content has scored Netflix nearly 264M views over that two-year period.<\/p>\n

\n\tOf course, fans of the series still will be able to access all the episodes over on Prime Video. This could also end up being a win for the Amazon streaming service, which has been leaning heavily into YA programming lately after the massive success of The Summer I Turned Pretty. <\/a>With continued buzz<\/a> around the steamy adaptation of Elle Kennedy\u2019s Off Campus<\/a> series among others, this could be the perfect time for Prime Video to add some more of those series\u2019 long-running and enduring predecessors to the streaming library.<\/p>\n

\n\tWith that in mind, it\u2019s possible that Prime Video is now the right fit for Gilmore Girls. The true test will be whether the series reclaims its annual spot on the Nielsen streaming rankings come Labor Day. <\/p>\n
