Introducing…Gilmore Girls

Not since Archie Bunker first introduced Seventh-day Adventists to American television viewers in the mid-seventies with his memorable line—“Raise him a Luferan if you want, raise him a Norman with seven wives, a holy roller, a Seventh-day Adventurer”—has there been such an extensive treatment of Adventists and their community on prime time television as in Gilmore Girls, a popular Tuesday night dramedy on the CW (formerly WB) channel that concluded its run in spring 2007 after seven successful seasons.
