.LeslilinkaG shares just how the pilot episode of Gilmore Girls came to life:
It was always assumed that girls would go see movies about boys growing up, but boys would not go see movies about girls. So it was just harder to get those movies. With, you had a female director, female writer, female producers — this was unheard of at the time.
“It’s amazing to me and makes me so happy that they had images of themselves. Certainly when I was growing up, they were very few and far between, I think it's really important that we had that. And now we're talking about that a lot with diversity role models — you need to see yourself.
“I love coming in and finding the look and feel of the show. Creating this town as a world I thought was critical. To do that visually, [emphasizing] the uniqueness of the characters within the town was very important. After I did the pilot I came back and directed a few episodes because I wanted to stay connected to the show. It's always hard to let go. I loved those characters.
