About Gilmore Girls in brief
Gilmore Girls is an American comedy-drama television series, created by Amy Sherman-Palladino and starring Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel. The show debuted on October 5, 2000, on The WB and became a flagship series for the network. Gilmore Girls originally ran for seven seasons, the final season moving to The CW, and ending its run on May 15, 2007. The main focus is on the relationship between single mother Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter Rory, who live in Stars Hollow, Connecticut. The series explores issues of family, romance, education, friendship, disappointment, and ambition, along with generational divides and social class. Since coming off the air, Gilmore Girls has been cited in TV and Time magazine as one of the 100 greatest television shows of all time. In 2016, the main cast returned for a four-part miniseries revival titled Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, which streamed on Netflix and later aired on The CW. The series has been in daily syndication since 2004, while a growing and dedicated fandom has led to its status as a cult classic. It never drew large ratings but was a relative success for The WB, peaking during season five as the network’s second most-popular show. The contrasting mother-daughter relationships of Emily–Lorelai and Rory become a defining theme of the show and a lens through which many of the female relationships are viewed. In the pilot episode, she is forced to go to them for financial aid after Rory is admitted to Chilton Preparatory School because she cannot afford the tuition fees.
Emily and Richard agree to provide a loan, so long as the girls join them every Friday night for dinner. The romantic relationships of the protagonists are another key feature; throughout the series, LoreLai has a will-they-won’t-they dynamic with her friend Luke Danes, while Rory harboring unresolved feelings for her father, Christopher Hayden. In season six, when the series moved to its new network, Sherman-palldino left the show, and was replaced by David S. Rosenthal for the finalSeason. It was produced and distributed by Warner Bros. Television and filmed on the studio’s lot in Burbank, California. In season seven, the series also focuses on both girls’ ambition: Rory to attend an Ivy League college, and Lore lai to open an inn with her best friend Sookie St. James, and to get engaged to Jason Stiles, whom she was engaged to since she was a teenager. In Season eight, the girls also develop temporary relationships with math teacher Max Medina, who she has known since childhood, and Jason’s father, who was also known as Digger Stiles. It was also in season seven that the girls’ relationship with the local diner owner, Luke, was revealed to be a love interest for Rory, and she has a temporary relationship with him as well. The girls also have a very close relationship, living like best friends rather than as typical mother- daughter.
