Gilmore Girls is an hour-long American television drama/comedy that aired for 7 seasons first on the WB and then on the CW. Re-runs in the US are currently airing on ABC Family. Amy Sherman-Palladino created the show and served as its executive producer with husband Daniel Palladino until the end of the sixth season (David S. Rosenthal took over for the final season). The show follows single mother Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and her daughter Lorelai Leigh "Rory" Gilmore (Alexis Bledel) in the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, roughly thirty minutes from Hartford. The series explores family, friendship, generational divides, and American class issues. It is set in a close-knit small town with many quirky characters.
It stuck with us for five seasons or more.
Show I watched and loved
These are shows that I have watched from start to finish (sometimes repeatedly) and just absolutely love! While there are many shows I've rated 4+ and loved, these are the few that hold a special place in my heart!
Please note that these are MY personal favorites, not necessarily ones that I would recommend to anyone and would argue are the best shows ever made. There were many shows that I loved that didn't quite make it into this list because they are just too new (need to see where it goes), would not rewatch (or hasn't been long enough to miss it), or just didn't have that OMG reminiscent feel. A perfect example of a borderline show is Avatar: Legend of Korra. I love Avatar and am a huge supporter of that entire line, but I just couldn't include this followup series because I personally felt like it wasn't as good as Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Oh no these aren't crime shows, just shows where two people steal the scene from all the others - be it friends, enemies, frenemies or even lovers.
Shows that are powerful and command attention
For all of those high school shows out there.
