The "Gilmore Girls" revival is the biggest TV news (besides the election) and let me tell you, I can't wait. This TV series is full of humor, love, wit, spunk, and great characters. It'll definitely make you laugh and sometimes even cry. I know I've done both. I'm sure everyone can relate to at least one character in the show whether it's Rory's love for books, Lorelai's parenting, or Luke's sarcasm. Whether it's watching Lorelai and Rory eat until they can't anymore, seeing Rory with one of her boyfriends, or the different relationships between all of the characters,there is something for everyone and it's the perfect show. I'm ecstatic for the revival because the show means so much to me. I watch it over and over again and it never gets old. In short, Gilmore Girls is definitely one of my favorite shows.
First, it's so easy to relate to. There are so many characters with various traits that are sure to appeal to people. The plot lines like mother-daughter relationships, being a single parent, dating and going to high school or college are funny and realistic, unlike other shows on TV. All of the things that happen in Stars Hollow could easily happen to any teenage girl. I personally relate to Rory Gilmore the most. She is an avid reader and dreams to be a journalist. Spot on? I think yes. I hope that one day I'll make a dent in the list of all the books Rory has read throughout the course of the show.
"Gilmore Girls" is also a bonding experience. It makes me realize that my mom is absolutely the Lorelai to my Rory. I like to think that we have a relationship just like them minus the marathon eating and being a single parent. My mom and I are so close and we love watching the show together. We have had our share of crying and laughing, and when Lorelai and Rory have a special bonding moment, it always means a lot to us. My mom is my best friend and if there is any TV mom and daughter duo to aspire to be, it is certainly Lorelai and Rory.
This is a show that will never get old for me. I honestly wish I could make everyone I know watch it. I could talk about it for hours and I would love to hear everyone else's opinion. Whenever someone tells me that they are a "Gilmore Girls" fan, my eyes light up and I immediately become happier. I wasn't old enough to watch the show when it originally aired on TV, but I'm glad I was able to watch it when I was older. I felt like I understood it more because I was the same age as Rory when I started watching. Now I'm even more excited for the revival of the show and I've been re-watching my favorite episodes to get more in the mood. Luckily, November 25th is right around the corner and I can get another fix of my favorite show.
