Big, buzzy shows. Popcorn entertainment-forward fare.
GILMORE GIRLS
Creatively ambitious, high quality, but different from the content on Amazon Prime.
Season 1, Episode 4 – “Fall” is the end of Gilmore Girls, and it’s the best Season of the four. Emily welcomes the changes in her life and is incredible in every way. Lorelai finally gets her happy ending. And Rory says those final four words. I laughed. I cringed. I cried. But overall, I am grateful we got a proper goodbye.
Season 1, Episode 3 – Summer is full of surprises. Emily begins seeing someone new. Rory breaks up with Logan and finds a new passion. Jess! Lorelai is forced to confront the problems in her life. And there’s a long musical interlude. Not the strongest season, but have I mentioned Jess?
Season 1, Episode 2 – Spring in Stars Hollow has everyone experiencing, wanting and starting to change. Lorelai and Emily go to therapy. Rory’s career comes to a grinding halt. Paris has an incredible — and acrobatic — scene in a bathroom. And the upheaval happens against a visually vibrant backdrop. Minor issues fail to take away from a quintessential Gilmore Girls episode.
Season 1, Episode 1 – It’s “Winter”, the first season in Gilmore Girls: Revival, and all of the Gilmore women are back. Lorelai wants more from her relationship with Luke. Rory is trying to find her place in the world. Emily is learning to grieve. And Stars Hollow covered in snow is as beautiful as we remembered. Grab a cup of coffee and sink back into this lovely world.
Gilmore Girls, the beloved WB/CW series centered around a fast-talking east coast mother and daughter, was last on the air in 2007. Now, nearly a decade later, the show is returning from co-creators Amy Sherman-Palladino and Dan Palladino on Netflix and fans can finally start counting down the days because it has an official premiere date.
A drama centering around the relationship between a thirtysomething single mother and her teen daughter living in Stars Hollow, Connecticut.
It’s a big day for Lauren Graham, with announcements that she is writing a script for Mae Whitman and is in talks to sign-on for a limited series revival of Gilmore Girls with Alexis Bledel.
