GILMORE GIRLS
I don't even know how to describe this show...It's smart, funny, touching...realistic but idealistic...if that makes sense. It's about a mother (Lorelai) and daughter (Rory) who live in a very cool little storybook town (Stars Hollow) full of interesting characters (the word eclectic comes to mind). The show is about relationships - mother/daughter, friendships, boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife, grandparents/grandchildren... The main thing most people notice when first seeing the show is the dialogue. It's fast-paced and filled with pop culture quips. Hopefully I can find some good video samples :-)
MY TOP 5 EPISODES:
#5 Wedding Bell Blues
(season 5)
Lorelai's parents renew their vows in an elaborate second wedding...Rory and Logan make out - after he tells her he doesn't want to be in a relationship...Luke and Christopher fight over Lorelai...It's a pretty packed episode. Personally, I like Emily's bachelorette party scene!
#4 They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?
(season 3)
Stars Hollow holds an all night dance marathon type thing. That in itself is quite humorous. But there's drama in the Dean/Rory/Jess love triangle...
#3 Kiss and Tell
(season 1)
Rory has her first kiss with Dean but is afraid to tell her mom...Thus Lorelai finds out through the grapevine.
#2 The Road Trip to Harvard
(season 2)
After calling off her wedding to Max, Lorelai takes off on a road trip with Rory. Important, ephiphanous (I think I just made that word up --- No, I didn't. Just checked. It's a real word.) moments are had by all. And Lorelai finally resolves to move forward with her dream of starting her own inn...
#1 The Festival of Living Art
(season 4)
The Stars Hollow Festival of Living Art! So great! I love the costumes! And the crazy townspeople! Why is there no video of this episode on youtube? Grr!
Though, there is a SMALL clip of it in the vid below:
