Netflix is in negotiations to revive “The Gilmore Girls.”

The rebooted series would reunite original stars Alexis Bledel and Lauren Graham along with series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and her husband and executive producer, Daniel Palladino.

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.

“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.

Sherman-Palladino has stated that she had a vision for the end of the show that never came to fruition, right down to the last four words of the final episode. If the revival moves ahead, fans may finally find out what they are.
