Over these past six seasons of “Gilmore Girls,” viewers have gotten a glimpse of what Asian Americans on television can be. No token characters, no racial identity issues, just people who light up the crazy world we live in. Creator Amy Sherman-Palladino was just trying to find a funny story to [...]

As a smart-talking, endearingly-pretentious, pop-culture reference machine, Gilmore Girls has always taken its music very seriously. You are what you listen to — especially when it comes to Lane Kim, who best encapsulates the ‘audiophile’ mentality of the show, acting as a mouthpiece for the Gilmore writers/producers who aren’t shy [...]

Melissa McCarthy would like to thank the producers of MadTV. After all, they inadvertently helped her land the role of Sookie St. James, klutzy chef and best friend to Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) on the hit series Gilmore Girls. The part originally went to actor Alex Borstein, who is [...]

(May 2006) By BILL BRIOUX — Toronto Sun
Amy Sherman-Palladino calls tonight’s Gilmore Girls sixth season finale — her swan song as the show’s driving force — “the coolest thing we’ve ever done.” The question is: Can and should this eccentric series survive without her?
I say cue the fat lady, bring out the fork, strike [...]

The news that “Gilmore Girls” executive producers Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino will be leaving the show at the end of the season is very bad news for “G.G.” fans.
It’s worse news for those who had hoped for great, or at least good, things from executives at the new CW network. They’ve [...]
