Big Think Now has put together a pictorial representation of The United States of TV in a map.
Gilmore Girls is shown on the map to represent the state of Connecticut, where Stars Hollow is located. If you recall, the fictional town of Stars Hollow is said to be located approximately thirty minutes from Hartford, Connecticut.
Thanks Anya!
BuddyTV has put together a list of their 25 Favorite Fictional Politicians including the whacky and anal Town Selectman, Taylor Doose, from Gilmore Girls, saying:
“There’s something admirable about Taylor’s unceasing devotion to policy, and his overeager smile makes us desperately want to sit in on a Stars Hollow town meeting.”
Kathleen Wilhoite (Liz on Gilmore Girls) guest starred last night on the season finale of CBS’ The Mentalist.
In the episode, ‘Red Sky in the Morning,’ Patrick Jane and Kristina’s first date is interrupted by a report of Red John striking again, which is discovered to be a copycat. But when Kristina reaches out to the real Red John, both she and Jane find themselves in grave danger.
Kathleen guest starred in the episode as Margo.
According to one Mentalist viewer, Adam, the Stars Hollow set was also used in this episode.
You can watch some clips from this episode here.
Thanks Sylvia!
ABC Family’s upcoming series, Pretty Little Liars, is filming on part of the old Gilmore Girls Stars Hollow lot. Luke’s Diner has been transformed (*sniff*) into Rosewood Cafe for Pretty Little Liars. The series is set to premiere on June 8th, so we have a while before we can see the transformation.
The series follows the lives of four girls — Spencer, Hanna, Aria, and Emily — whose clique falls apart after the disappearance of their queen bee, Ali. One year later, they begin receiving messages from someone using the name “A” who threatens to expose their secrets — including long-hidden ones they thought only Ali knew.
As for the transformation, we agree with E!: “A little sad though. We thought that WB landmark would be immortalized.”
Here’s a preview of Pretty Little Liars (looks good, don’t you think?):
In ‘Women Of Questionable Morals ‘, the whole town is gearing up for a re-enactment and the big question is – who will play the whore? Lorelai was asked, which she says was the “highlight of her day”, ironically. Anyway, much was made of this whole thing and it was hilarious. I especially love when Kirk runs out saying “My girlfriend’s the whore! My girlfriend’s the whore!” and that made Lorelai sad. hehe
Anyway, it got me thinking about this whole question of reenactments and plays and I was curious about your theatrical experience. Have you ever been in a play or live show of any sort? What kind of roles have you had? Anything as crazy as a town whore?

In ‘The Festival of Living Art‘, which was based on a real art festival and, in this episode, on actual artwork, is one of my favorite episodes in Gilmore Girls. So beautiful! I could talk about Luke & Nicole and their agreement to “date”, but I don’t want to. I just want to look at the masterpiece of this episode once again!
Lorelai is shown above posing in Pierre-August Renoir’s “Dance at Bougival” while Rory, shown below, is “Antea” by Parmigianino. You can read more about these works of art here. This episode, to me, is a work of art.
Lauren shared that this episode is one of her favorites in this video:

As many of you know, this festival is based upon a real event, the Pageant of the Masters. Here is a behind-the-scenes look at the 2009 festival:

In ‘Take the Deviled Eggs…‘, the Stars Hollow “town loner”, the “backpack guy”, has put in a request to stage a protest. When the time comes, the gown gathers to see what is being protested. The longer goes up the church tower to drop a banner, only it’s backwards. Then rips. He tries yelling, but we can’t hear what he’s saying.

I’ve always been curious about what the town loner could have been protesting, haven’t you? Do you have any guesses?
Whatever it is, I really doubt Lorelai’s guess was correct ;)
“Hey, maybe that’s the Town Loner’s point. That, like, he’s protesting man’s inability to communicate by not communicating and getting us all to talk about communication.”
