# Gilmore Girls Leaves Netflix and Lands on Prime Video

After more than a decade as one of Netflix's most-streamed comfort watches, all seven seasons of 'Gilmore Girls' left the service on June 30 — and turned up on Amazon Prime Video the next morning.

Lorelai and Rory Gilmore have survived bad boyfriends and a great deal of coffee. Now they've survived a streaming migration.

## A new address for Stars Hollow

All seven seasons of "Gilmore Girls" — Amy Sherman-Palladino's fast-talking dramedy, which ran on The WB and then The CW from 2000 to 2007 — left Netflix on June 30, ending a licensing run that dated to 2014. As of July 1 the series streams on Amazon Prime Video, [Deadline reported](https://deadline.com/2026/07/gilmore-girls-leaves-netflix-streams-on-prime-video-1236972641/). Netflix marked the exit with a wink, calling the show "a lifestyle" it was "sorry" to see go.

## Where else to find it

Fans who don't subscribe to Prime Video have options. The series also remains available on Hulu and on Disney+, where it has streamed since December 2024, [Forbes reported](https://www.forbes.com/sites/hannahabraham/2026/06/30/gilmore-girls-has-left-netflix-heres-where-to-still-watch-it/). The move gives Amazon a well-loved catalog title at a moment when streamers are paying up to license comfort-viewing staples.

## The revival stays put — for now

One piece isn't moving. "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life," the 2016 Netflix revival that delivered Sherman-Palladino's long-promised "final four words," was commissioned by Netflix directly under a ten-year exclusive window. That window runs until late November 2026, so the four-part miniseries stays on Netflix for now and is not part of the Prime Video deal covering the original run. Where it lands afterward has not been announced.

## Musical chairs

The shuffle is a small example of the licensing churn reshaping streaming, as older network catalogs move among services when deals lapse. For viewers, the upshot is simpler than the corporate math: the original seven seasons of "Gilmore Girls" are now a Prime Video binge, just in time for summer.
