After Season 3 of "Gilmore Girls," the next highest-performing batch of episodes comes from Season 5 in 2004, which features six of the top 30 episodes of the series. This is followed by Season 4 from 2003, which is home to five of the top-rated episodes of the show, according to fans on IMDb. When combined, these three seasons contain an impressive 18 of the top 30 episodes.
Still, all in all, "Gilmore Girls" seems to fare pretty well over the course of its run on the air. After all, episodes from all eight seasons appear in the top 30 of the show. Meanwhile, according to Rotten Tomatoes, Season 6 is the highest-ranked of the series, with a score of 100% from critics and 85% from viewers.
Either way, however, "Gilmore Girls" appears to be positively reviewed throughout, regardless of which source you go to for a consensus. Even the Netflix revival is well-scored, proving that the show has some pretty serious staying power, and that it's never a bad time to return to Stars Hollow for another batch of comfort food.
