People within the fan cultures of television shows often participate in gatherings such as “watch party” rituals as well as acts of ostension that allow them to interact more deeply with the narrative.

A fan culture differs greatly from the casual fan, and that definitely proves to be the case with the Warner Brother’s popular 2000’s television…

...and the day was finally here, THEY ARE OUT! I know there are many people, or I better say girls, who are Gilmore Girls fans and that they were waiting for this moment with bathed breath, but some non-that-much-fans did the same. I like this TV show very much but I do not see myself as a fan: I did not have encircled with red marker, or any other color marker, the date on my calendar, not even marked that day in my diary with glittered GG or something similar, I did not like the posts,…

The iconic lyrics sung by Carole King, “Where you lead, I will follow anywhere that you tell me to.

Eat more Sleep more Laugh more Live more Gilmore The quote is actually from a poster that I found when I searched Gilmore on Google. I wanted to find a quote that went with my last name because it is so common. The poster was an advertisement for the newest season of Gilmore Girls.

In Gilmore Girls, there is a lot of communication between mother and daughter, and friends.

Emily takes on the role of conservatist while Lorelai is a radical in the sense that she is not only initiative and a free thinker but also…
