Negative Positive
Title: A little left of centre . . .
Review: Discovered this series only this year when the Hallmark Channel (UK) began showing it from scratch. So glad I did - the wacky world of Stars Hollow is truly an excellent find. The show's premiss of a mother/daughter relationship in small-town, Connecticut, doesn't sound all that enthralling, but once I'd watched my first ever episode, I was definitely hooked. The writing for this show is just top-notch, witty, clever, and under-shot with pathos. Lauren Graham as Lorelai is wry and funny but amazingly vulnerable. Rory (Alexis Bledel,) is a great foil for her zany mother, and there are a plethora of wonderful, supporting characters, all strong in their own right. Don't be fooled by The Gilmore Girls - it isn't all candy-coated, comedy. There's a Dali-esque slide to the left about it which can often take you (pleasantly) by surprise.
