Edward Hermann, who played Lorelai’s father, Richard, died in 2014. Melissa McCarthy (“Mike and Molly,” “Bridesmaids”), who played Sookie, Lorelai’s chef sidekick, has said that she wasn’t invited back.

Details about what each character has been doing for the last nine years are still under wraps.
Series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and her husband, producer Daniel Palladino, are returning as well. They left the show at the end of Season 6 due to a dispute with the studio.
Netflix streamed all seven seasons in 2014, providing nostalgia for fans and an introduction for newcomers. Agena and Kuroda said at the time that they were still recognized on the street as their “Gilmore Girls” characters.
“Gilmore Girls” is one of a number of canceled series making a comeback, including “The X-Files,” which is having a limited run on Fox, and “Full House,” whose sequel, “Fuller House,” is being developed as a Netflix series.
