OK, so it may seem silly, but I have watched all seven seasons of the Gilmore Girls (on DVD) in the past six months. Anytime I sew or clean or do pretty much anything in the kitchen, that's what I have been watching. I feel like a little part of me is over today because I watched the final episode of season seven, the final season. It is like reaching the end of a great book. Some of the characters on the show began to feel like old friends. Anyway, I had to pay a little tribute to my Stars Hollow friends by putting up a little blog ode to them. What a fabulous witty show. I will miss it.
Below is the Wikipedia info on the Gilmore Girls:
"Gilmore Girls is an
Emmy Award-winning,
Golden Globe-nominated;
American comedy-drama series created by
Amy Sherman-Palladino and starring
Lauren Graham and
Alexis Bledel. The series made its debut on
The WB on
October 5,
2000, and it ended on
May 15,
2007 in its seventh season, which aired on
The CW. Time Magazine named it one of the top 100 television series of all time.
The show follows single mother
Lorelai Victoria Gilmore (Graham) and her daughter
Lorelai "Rory" Leigh Gilmore (Bledel) in the fictional town of
Stars Hollow,
Connecticut, a close-knit small town with many quirky characters, located roughly thirty minutes from
Hartford. The series explores family, friendship, generational divides, and
social class.
Gilmore Girls features affected, fast-paced dialogue, with frequent
popular-culture and political references. It also features social commentary, which is manifest most clearly in Lorelai's difficult relationship with her wealthy
upper class parents."
