Netflix announced on June 15 that Gilmore Girls Seasons 1–7 will leave Netflix in the United States on June 30, setting a firm deadline for fans who have been watching the complete run on the platform.
The move affects a show that ended in 2007 after seven seasons and that Netflix currently hosts in full, including the spinoff Gilmore Girls: A Day in the Life. That availability has made Netflix one of the places where viewers can stream every episode of the original series nearly two decades after the final episode aired.
After June 30 the series will no longer be available on Netflix in the U.S.; the company named Hulu as another service that carries Gilmore Girls, and Hulu offers plans starting at $11.99 per month or $119.99 per year. For viewers who turn to streaming to rewatch the show, Hulu is the immediately named destination after Netflix’s removal.
The announcement was posted on X on June 15 and gives U.S. viewers just over two weeks to finish any in-progress watches on Netflix before the catalog change takes effect on June 30. That short window is the practical significance of the notice: it is a date-specific change, not a vague future shift.
There is a sharp friction in the timing: Netflix is removing the series even though it remains one of the services where fans still watch all seven seasons. The departure ends a long-running availability window on Netflix and forces viewers who used the platform as their go-to home for Gilmore Girls to migrate their viewing elsewhere.
What the announcement does not say is whether the series will appear on additional services beyond Hulu once it leaves Netflix. The only verified post-removal destination named is Hulu; no other platforms were confirmed in the notice that set the June 30 date.
Practically speaking, fans in the United States who want to keep streaming Gilmore Girls without interruption should plan to move to Hulu after June 30 or finish any episodes they want to rewatch on Netflix before the deadline. The closing fact is simple: the series will not be on Netflix in the U.S. after June 30, and Hulu is the service explicitly available for streaming the show afterward.
