I have watched many shows in the duration of my life, but one trumps them all. This show is called Gilmore Girls. The director of this show is a woman by the name of Amy Sherman-Palladino. She was inspired by a visit to a small town in Washington, Connecticut. She stayed in a beautiful small Inn located in a vibrant town with amazing people. The local dinner allowed people to walk behind the counter which goes to show how connected the people in the town are. She said that within 24 hours, she had a general plot and main characters. The two main characters, that the story revolves around. are Rory and Lorelai. The actors that play these characters are Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel. The show debuted on October 5, 2000, and ran for seven seasons, ending on May 15,2007. The show later debuted an offshoot of the show with the main characters years later on November 25,2016. This second series is called “A Year in a Life”.
The show is based on the life of a mother and daughter. The mother, Lorelai was raised in a strict rich home, with the parents being Emily and Richard Gilmore. Lorelai became pregnant at sixteen years old and moved out of her parents home. She was supported by working as a maid in the town of StarsHollow at the Independence Inn. Over time, she became the person who ran the Inn. She raised Rory to be a smart girl with aspirations of going to Harvard, which Lorelai was unable to do. Lorelai raised Rory alone, and the show walks through their life and how throughout the stress and pain in their lives, they always have each other. The town they live in has always supported them and the people in the town are very close knit. StarsHollow is known for their festivals and events. The show walks through their lives; through boyfriends, college, and the mandatory Friday night dinners. All of the actors in the show are amazing. The directors storyline and the execution of the show make it one of my favorites. I have watched the show, as a whole, multiple times with my family, and have never gotten sick of it.
Gilmore Girls is a show that I believe everyone should watch. It’s warmhearted and the relationship between the mother and daughter is incredible. It shows that all you need in your life is one person who is always there for you. How throughout life, there is always that one person that is with you to experience it. Both Lorelai and Rory support each other through both the bad and good times. This show to me, and my mom and sister, has always been one that we watch over and over. To us, it is a show that will always be our favorite. I hope that you watch an episode and see why we enjoy it. All seasons are available on Netflix.
