The show followed Graham as single mother Lorelai Gilmore and her relationship with her daughter, Rory (Bledel). They lived in the town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, which was populated by a wide range of eccentric characters.
The show served as an early starring vehicle for “Bridesmaids” and “Spy” star Melissa McCarthy and “Supernatural’s” Jared Padalecki. “Empire” co-creator Danny Strong also appeared on the show as Doyle McMaster.
Edward Herrmann, who played patriarch Richard Gilmore, died in 2014.
“The Gilmore Girls” aired on The WB from 2000-2005, then switched to the spinoff network The CW in 2006 for its final season. Sherman-Palladino and her husband left the series before the final season due to a contract dispute with Warner Bros.
