Graham, who will reprise her role as Lorelai Gilmore, made a surprise appearance to chat with Ellen about the show and share its title. _A Year in the Life_ will consist of four episodes of an hour and a half each, spanning — as you’d guess — a year in Stars Hollow. The lion’s share of the original cast will return for the reboot, which is “almost done” shooting, Graham said. \[[_Deadline_](http://deadline.com/2016/05/gilmore-girls-a-year-in-the-life-lauren-graham-ellen-degeneres-1201759995/ "undefined")\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4342786/gilmore-girls-netflix-title/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4342786/gilmore-girls-netflix-title/"},"headline":"The Gilmore Girls Reboot Now Has an Official Title","datePublished":"2016-05-20T08:28:48.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T17:42:33.769Z","description":"Lauren Graham says the Netflix series is \"almost done\" shooting","url":"https://time.com/4342786/gilmore-girls-netflix-title/","keywords":["Television","Netflix","Ellen Degeneres","Gilmore Girls"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt2543ab7d020d3798/69889416a988ca9d2c6b7ef3/gettyimages-73593295-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nash Jenkins","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt2543ab7d020d3798/69889416a988ca9d2c6b7ef3/gettyimages-73593295-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Gilmore Girls","caption":"Gilmore Girls","creditText":"Patrick Ecclesine—Warner Bros./Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4342786/gilmore-girls-netflix-title/","name":"The Gilmore Girls Reboot Now Has an Official Title"}}]}] ```
