Gilmore Girls / Amy Sherman
Gilmore Girls - a television program created by Amy Sherman is now available in DVD. Gilmore Girls tells the story of a single mother with a teen daughter who lives in a small town in New England. Mother and daughter are very close to each other and quick witted. The small town is typically a friendly place and the two "girls" have various interactions with friends, neighbours, workmates and schoolmates. Various mishaps and humerous situations occur as the series proceeds all within the realm of the normal human experience.
Gilmore Girls depicts two clever ladies living a typical North American existence with ease and grace. The humour of the characters and the charm of the small town are the main appeal of this series. I think Gilmore Girls would mainly appeal to teen girls, because the main characters are both female. I also think the show is for a white middle class audience, because there is only one regular character in that does not fit this physical description and the everyday problems and issues that the characters have to deal with are relevant to this demographic. Gilmore Girls is funny, quaint and not overly controversial and should be suitable for most young adults.
