Gilmore Girls (2000)

Show generally

Corrected entry: The title of the show is "Gilmore girls." Notice that the letter G in girls is not capitalized. Rory's manuscript in the revival has the G in girls capitalized. Almost everywhere you see the name of the show the word girls is not capitalized. The references to "Gilmore girls" on this website has the G in the word girls capitalized. A theory exists that the 7 seasons of "Gilmore girls" is the first 7 chapters of Rory's book. In that case the letter G shouldn't be capitalized.

Correction: It's entirely variable. IMDb has it capitalised, Wikipedia has it capitalised. Some posters do, some don't. Netflix uses a non-capitalised banner image but the text has it capitalised. There's clearly no absolute right or wrong.

In the real world, sites follow title case stylization rules to identify the title of the show as "Gilmore Girls." But the show itself doesn't have to follow any stylization rules and identifies itself as "Gilmore girls." The mistake is saying if Rory's manuscript is meant to be the show itself, it should also be written as "Gilmore girls" since that's how the show has already presented itself, regardless of how we identify it in the real world.

I guess the first seven seasons could be Rory's book, however she does mention to Dean that all the characters would be given a different name to who they are in real life. (A Year in the Life, S1:Ep4, 1:18:05), so surely if it was the book they would have different names or maybe it's still the prototype so there aren't any different names yet.
