More Critic Reviews for Gilmore Girls A Year in the Life All Critics (67) | Top Critics (28) | Fresh (57) | Rotten (10) In era of revivals driven and manipulated by the almighty dollar, A Year in the Life is refreshing in its genuine creation. Nov 16, 2016 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic That is what is dispiriting about the Gilmore Girls revival. That its two main characters, Lorelai and Rory, haven't changed. Nov 16, 2016 | Full Review… Wenlei Ma News.com.au Top Critic The good news is that if you're not a Gilmore Girls person and your relatives are eager to watch it over the holidays, there's plenty of that staccato dialogue and family playfulness to entertain and divert you. Nov 29, 2016 | Full Review… Linda Holmes NPR Top Critic A sense of maturity creeps in as all three women reevaluate their lives and choices, reminding us that beneath the whimsy and the quips lies one of TV's richest and most relatable family dramas. Nov 28, 2016 | Full Review… Rachel Ward Daily Telegraph (UK) Top Critic Gilmore Girls. It's not a lifestyle; it's a TV show you really liked 10 years ago, now extended on Netflix. We'll take it. Nov 28, 2016 | Full Review… Ben Philippe Observer Top Critic A sweet, sad, sentimental and (above all) joyous return to Stars Hollow. Nov 23, 2016 | Rating: A | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic The resurrection of Gilmore Girls is imperfect. Even irregular. And even so, it's as perfect as you could expect it to be. [Full Review in Spanish] Jul 10, 2018 | Full Review… Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) A Year In The Life meets expectations and then some. May 18, 2018 | Full Review… Emma Dibdin Elle For a bright, witty, and colorful series such as Gilmore Girls, it's a dark and depressing message. Dec 4, 2017 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review… Erin Giannini PopMatters The four-part, mini-series revival of Gilmore Girls on Netflix was sort of perfect combination of bringing the story up-to-date and the right amount of nostalgia.
