"Gilmore Girls" premiered on The WB in October 2000 and it’s still finding new fans 25 years later. In this episode, we’re on a mission to find out how "Gilmore Girls" found its audience, while staying true to itself – from its "Gilmore speed” delivery, its pop culture-packed references, and its complicated female characters. Hear why it resonates from actor Keiko Agena, who played Lane Kim on the show, and fan and "Ginny & Georgia" creator Sarah Lampert. Parents, a heads-up: audio contains a few bleeped explicit words.
