Gilmore Girls: A Year in The Life takes place over the course of one year and is episodes are divided into the four seasons (Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall). Amy Sherman-Palladino and husband Dan Palladino take us directly back into the fast-paced world of Stars Hollow four months after Richard’s death, which was written into the script after the tragic passing of actor, Edward Herrmann, and the storyline of the three generations of the Gilmore girls (Emily, Lorelai, and Rory) is how they each deal with the passing of their husband, father, and grandfather respectfully. Although, some of the choices each character makes seems out of character, I had to keep reminding myself that people handle grief in different ways. Emily’s grief allowed …show more content…
After getting fired from the book deal with Naomi and disastrous of interviews at the New Yorker and a Cosmo rip-off, Rory is back in her childhood room at the end of Spring. However, before Summer is even halfway through Rory is taking on the role of editor of the Stars Hollow Gazette, and Jess soon encourages her to write a novel about her and her mother’s life together, which she does. Although we do not get to see the results of the novel, just hearing Rory and Lorelai talk about it and Jess’s connection to a publishing company is enough to know that the novel will go on to become a success. This is tiring as well. All throughout the original everything in Rory’s life had just feel directly into place; she stole a yacht and her punishment was a pat on the wrist and 300 hours of community service. Her frustrating pregnancy is not a large enough set back to make her more …show more content…
I loved that Luke and Lorelai finally got married and the middle of the night wedding seemed so in character for the couple. My favorite scene was the return of the Life and Death Brigade where the gang, all dressed in steampunk-inspired outfits, get drunk and rent out an inn, or more particular, the goodbye scene which mirrors The Wizard of Oz when Dorothy is about to return home to Kansas. Finn, Colin, Robert, and Logan introduced Rory to a whole new, almost make-believe, world and the goodbye scene portrayed that perfectly. Unlike many others I enjoyed the Stars Hollow Musical; I found it funny and completely in tune with the town’s antics. I loved catching up all the citizens in Stars Hollow. I loved that Lane and Zach were still with the band since both while still being wonderful parents to the twins, and Kirk’s “Ooober” company was completely in character for him. Although many others did not find Paris’s divorce believable, I felt as if it would have been more unbelievable for nothing to have changed and since out of all the relationships Paris and Doyle’s was the most dependent on the two remaining steady. As a result, the natural changes that happen over time, career changes in the case of Doyle and Paris, would have broken down their relationship. The writers also made light-hearted jokes about the lack of diversity in the original, like when Taylor Doose mentions the Gay Pride Parade

“Everybody Loves Raymond” is a television show that only few people today can actually say they had not seen this sitcom. It was one of the highest rated show during it run on CBS television network but has anyone ever noticed how much of a gender stereotype bonanza this show was? Most sitcoms follow the same pattern with the primary goal to make us laugh that, we tend to ignore the obvious and just assume this was the expected behavior for men, women even children in our society. I watched the first two episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond, the show was about a stay at home mother Debra and her husband Raymond who goes to work, while her in-laws who lives across the street are always barging in to her home without a thought about what
Seinfeld used to be one of the most watched television shows in the world. Some of its characters such as Kramer and Jerry became household names. With each character having a comic flare and so much character development, it was definitely a show to be reckoned with. It was so big that Jerry made one million dollars a episode, while his co-stars were paid six hundred thousand per episode. Although this show was not being made when I was born, I watched one episode of it and have been eagerly excited about it every since then. I love to see how each of the characters are developed and learn how much work ethic they put in to make these comic roles so successful. Also, my favorite character is Kramer because I see that I have a lot of similarities
Everyone who has seen Grey’s Anatomy knows all the problems and struggles the characters go through with each episode they watch; they know how much Meredith Grey struggles with her mommy and daddy issues which distract her at work and led her to become emotional involved or make an error with a patient. Everyone has seen the characters on the show have committed at least one mistake that led to the death of a patient or a near to death experience. From the time Callie Torres, an orthopedic surgeon, left a sponge inside of a patient and closed him up to the time George O’Malley, a surgical resident, who nearly killed a patient. But what most viewers who watch Grey’s Anatomy do not fully comprehend is that this is not just in a drama but this is in real life—all doctors make mistakes.
I liked everything about the musical "Into The Woods." It was not even that long. It was only an hour and a half. It was funny and entertaining. The actors/actresses were very much into the play. They all sang and danced, and they looked like they were having fun at what they were doing. That makes a show better to watch. I would like to see it again, only if I didn't have to pay $9 for it. I would even recommend a friend to go and see it. There was nothing that I did not like about the musical. The whole thing was just wonderful.
