“ ‘Gilmore Girls’ was always an especially heartfelt TV series that, to its fans, was extremely personal,” The Post’s Emily Yahr wrote in 2014, the year Netflix announced it would make the full series available to subscribers. But despite its intense fan following, “Gilmore Girls” failed to gain mainstream award recognition. Amy Sherman-Palladino, winner of #Emmys tonight, inexplicably never received even one nomination for Gilmore Girls. In January, less than two months after it arrived on Amazon, the show won best TV comedy at the Golden Globes, where Rachel Brosnahan nabbed the award for best actress in a TV comedy. Both the show and Brosnahan received those same accolades at the Emmys, and Alex Borstein won for best supporting actress.
