A second Gilmore Girls revival is officially TBD. At the Television Critics Assoc. summer press tour on Sunday, Netflix’s VP or original content, Cindy Holland, maintained that there are no current talks to spearhead a follow-up to 2016’s Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.

“We haven’t discussed it at all,” she told reporters. “But [series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino] knows that we are very big fans of Gilmore Girls.”
Sherman-Palladino is, of course, currently busy with Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, which bagged 14 Emmy nominations, including for Outstanding Comedy Series. However, as TVLine first reported, Sherman-Palladino’s Amazon deal includes an “out” clause that would allow her and fellow EP Daniel Palladino to make another season of Gilmore.
Last year, Gilmore leading lady Lauren Graham weighed in on the subject of a second revival, telling TVLine, “Now it’s become what can we [still] do with this story that’s satisfying, that [makes it] worth continuing, that will be gratifying to the people who care so much about it. I don’t know if there’s a need to do more. I would never want it to feel like we overstayed our welcome.” Several weeks later, Graham hinted at the possibility of a one-off holiday movie during a TVLine Podcast Q&A.
In March 2017, Netflix’s Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos confirmed to TVLine that he had spoken to Team Palladino about a sequel to A Year in the Life. “We obviously loved the success of the show [and] fans loved how well it was done; it delivered what they hoped. The worst thing is to wait a couple of years for your favorite show to come back and for it to disappoint you, but [Amy and Dan] sure delivered and people were really excited about more. And we have been talking to them about the possibility of that.’

Please do a sequel or do a reboot with Rory as the mom this time love the Gilmore Girls
Yes yes yes
Yes I want the show to come back.
I think they should do more with the revival. I wasnt necessarily happy with the ending of AYITL. I want to see more.
The story line that could keep going would be that Rory is now pregnant and potentially take the same life as her mother (being single mom) but raising a child in this new day and age with new concerns.
Sequel please. Even if it is a movie. I watch Gilmore Girls EVERY day
I would watch it. Would love to know who the father of Rory’s baby is and maybe for future story on her as a mom and the relationship with her little one.
I would like it finish what they did in a year in the life. I love the Gilmore Girls show.
Would submitting an informal poll or petition demonstrate our support for another installment of GG to the powers that be…?
Yes I need a revival to figure out who the father of Rory’s baby is!
Yes… I Will see Rory and Logan back together …because they Love each other …and I think that Logan is the father of her Chile….tjata My thoughts…Love you all
Yes please!!
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
Please give us The Final Chapter: Rory and Logan. We know they love each other and Logan is the father. Don’t do a repeat of Lorelei and Rory. Logan needs to know it’s his child and Rory can’t raise it without him.
