Stars Hollow may never change, but its residents have presumably grown in all sorts of ways since we last saw them almost ten years ago. Later this month, they’ll return to our living rooms for Netflix’s reboot of Gilmore Girls, premiering November 25. To show how the Gilmores & Co. have changed, we’ve put together a slideshow of their first looks from the pilot episode of the series 16 years ago, alongside their mugs from the upcoming revival. Most important thing to watch for as you flip through: the new hairdos. Jess has gone long, Paris is cropping it close, and Lorelai has highlights!
