With all these shows making comebacks and returning with either a whole new cast or even with the original cast (like the Gilmore Girls revival on Netflix), we are wondering which shows JJJ readers would want to see return!

While we have ten shows listed, if you’re not that interested in any of them, or perhaps there’s another Teen/YA show that you really want to return, we highly encourage you to write in your own answer!

“I had four very specific kinds of girls in mind. That makes casting hard,” Ms. Sherman-Palladino said of casting. “Boo had to be very specific, Sasha had to be specific. On pointe.
