![]() ![]() There is also a lot of drama that is always relatable and handled with truth and poignancy. Sarcastic humour, usually courtesy of Lorelei often directed at Emily, is usually not my thing and it tends to be mean-spirited in general, the writing here just about avoids stepping that line. The comedic moments have sharpness and wit and hilarious at times. ![]() The writing is one of 'Gilmore Girls' greatest strengths. The theme song is one of television's catchiest and its lyrics are inspiring and brilliantly sums up what 'Gilmore Girls' is all about. The music is only used when necessary and isn't placed obtrusively or randomly. Sookie and especially Michel, one of my favourite characters, liven it up significantly. However, the filming does improve and really like the close knit feel of Stars Hollow, Emily and Richard's opulent big house and The Inn, which isn't run as too cold an environment. ![]() Didn't love every character, Dean for example was borderline controlling and Paris' condescending way of speaking took some getting used to (did find myself growing to relate to her, being someone who puts pressure on themselves too and forgets to relax due to over-anxiousness). Some of the filming early on is a little flat. Some of the dialogue delivery is too rapid fire and rushed, some may need subtitles but didn't find that necessary personally (do know people that do). Continued to binge watch, and it became amazingly the most addictive show seen recently since my recent re-watching of 'The Borgias'. They were also the ones that introduced me to 'Gilmore Girls', started watching it and very quickly got me hooked, judging that by bedtime seven episodes had been watched. Saw it though because a lot of my friends consider it one of their favourite shows and my godparents also were shocked by how much they liked it. For some reason, it didn't appeal to me at first on paper and didn't seem like my kind of thing. 'Gilmore Girls' was a surprise hit for me. When a show makes you unsure as to whether to continue but still do it for fairness sake, that isn't so good a sign. One where you start watching and find yourself watching 6 episodes in one sitting, the odd toilet break aside (needed for someone with bouts of stomach sensitivity like me). When a show is addictive you know that is a good, even great, sign. Numerous great examples in all three of those groups in both film and television. ![]()
