Gilmore Girls

I love this show.

And, yes, I'm aware that almost all my friends find it drippy or saccharine or just plain annoying. I can't help them in their poor, sad delusion. The show has rapid-fire dialogue full of wonderful, smart cultural references. It is upbeat, quirky, and funny, and has no bad guys or violence. We need more stuff like that.

I worry that most of us are entranced by violence and guns and things blowing up and the use of such things as a first resort in solving problems... that this might be one of our greatest ills.

Why is it that so few of us can sit down and unashamedly enjoy something sweet and happy? How did we get so screwed up that unhappy is cool?

You nut Bob. :)

Sookie, the chef, was chasing her vegetable supplier guy down the road to apologise to him in one episode... but they were on foot, not in cars. That's about as close as you get. :)
