Netflix's Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life debuted Friday, Nov. 25 on the streaming service, and fans are already champing at the bit for more.

For the decade between when Amy Sherman-Palladino left the series she created and the arrival of Netflix's four new chapters, the final words were discussed so often that they reached near legendary status.
