Simply the best

I’m still having Gilmore Girls withdrawals, so I’ve been trying to find a replacement show. It’s like when a goldfish dies & after a few days/weeks/months, you are ready to go to the pet store. I’ll always be loyal to the Gilmores, but I just wanted something to fill the gapping void in my life since the show ended. I decided to try some shows that have already finished their run. This way I know they are going to end, & when they are going to end, so I won’t be too traumatized. So far I’ve tried:
Wonderfalls. Only four episodes aired, but the DVDs have 13 episodes. It’s a funny show that pretty much sums up generation y, but I couldn’t get too attached with just 13 shows.
Alias. So many people have recommended this show to me, because Sidney kicks people & I love that. However, I just got so bored & only made it through half of the first season.
Whenever I tell people that I love Gilmore Girls, they seem to recommend Felicity. Great, four whole seasons. Again, this show just didn’t seem to move. Like Alias I just couldn’t get involved. If I hadn’t watched Gilmore Girls, I might’ve liked it, but Amy Sherman Palladino spoiled me with interesting characters & conversations.
If I keep this up, pretty soon I’ll be watching One Tree Hill. There doesn’t seem to be anything else out there that is of the Gilmore caliber.
Try My So-Called Life, not really Gilmoresque, but it’s a good, yet short-lived, show.
Oh, my! Trust me, Sara…it’s NEVER bad enough to where you have to watch One Tree Hill! I’d watch ice melt before I watched that show! Tristan he may have been, but Tristan he is not now.
Hmmm…how about Friday Night Lights? Or Smallville? Gilmore Girls was unique, that’s for sure.
