For the past few months, rumors have been circulating that there was a Gilmore Girls reunion secretly percolating. Fans have since waited on the edge of their seats to see if their favorite mother-daughter duo would return to Stars Hollow.
With a joyous tweet late Friday, Lauren Graham confirmed that Gilmore Girls will be back.

If, for some reason, you feel like you cannot trust Lorelai Gilmore herself, Netflix confirmed the news with a tweet of its own.

As for what the plot of the new episodes will be, nothing has been released yet. I know that Jared Padalecki is busy on another mega-successful TV show, but let’s hope for a Rory-Dean reunion.
Update 9:11pm CT, Jan. 29: Apparently, Scott G. Patterson will be involved in the series reboot:
