wacth Gilmore Girls Seasons 1-7

gilmore girls seasons 1-7 dvd boxset stars Alexis Bledel as the smart, studious Rory Gilmore and Lauren Graham as her mother Lorelai, the manager of a historic inn who had Rory when she was just sixteen. The early seasons of gilmore girls seasons 1-7 dvd focus on Rory's transition from her small town high school to an elite prep school, to which Rory transfers in order to have a better chance of being admitted to Harvard University. Lorelai, meanwhile, must set aside sixteen years of estrangement from her wealthy parents in order to secure financing for Rory's education.

As the series progresses, the viewer sees Rory go forward from high school to college and watches as Lorelai moves from managing an inn to owning one of her own. We also see Rory and Lorelai try to balance their educational and career aspirations with their love lives, which don't always go very smoothly over the course of the series. The more serious elements of the show, however, are always evened out by Rory and Lorelai's interactions with the slightly zany residents of Stars Hollow. The town's weekly meetings and numerous special events are venues for some of the show's most humorous moments.

In both its serious and humorous storylines, gilmore girls seasons 1-7never underestimates the intelligence of its audience. Each episode is packed with references to books, movies, televisions shows, celebrities, and more, and sometimes you'll have to look up a certain reference in order to get the joke. gilmore girls complete seasons 1-7 boxset never panders to the lowest common denominator and always maintains a clever, witty tone. Just as the show's characters (Rory in particular) are unapologetically intelligent, so is the show's writing.
I think what attracted me to Gilmore Girls the most, though, is the show's unique portrayal of a mother-daughter relationship. Rory and Lorelai are best friends as well as mother and daughter, and don't have the kind of antagonistic relationship that most television shows portray as the norm for teens and their parents. I'm fortunate to have a great relationship with my mother that, in many ways, is very similar to Rory and Lorelai's. It was such a nice change to see that kind of closeness between mother and daughter when most other teen-oriented programs present parents as clueless, villainous, or just plain absent.
I recently finished watching the entirety of gilmore girls complete seasons 1-7 boxset thanks to two DVD sets. I'm sad to see the end of one of my favorite shows, but I'm also looking forward to starting the journey all over again with Season 1.
