GILMORE GIRLS Mastermind Shaping New HBO Hourlong!!
I am – Hercules!!
“Gilmore Girls” creator-showrunner Amy Sherman-Palladino is developing an untitled dramedy for HBO.
The Hollywood Reporter has the premise:
... chronicles the complicated relationship between three adult sisters, all writers sharing the same upper east side apartment building, and their mother, a domineering literary lioness who reserves most of her affections for their ne'er-do-well brother.
Gods, I hope this goes to series. I’d love to see what Sherman-Palladino (in my view one of the funniest dramatists alive) can conjure in HBO’s censorship-free MA-rated Sunday-night environment.
Find all of the Reporter’s story on the matter here.

Who's in charge there, a bunch of old queens? It's just sad.
-
I loved Gilmore Girls. That said, a family of FOUR writers? For whatever reason that just puts me off right away.
-
Or possibly poor dead Wendy Wasserstein's story (called "The Sisters Rosensweig")? Not terribly original. It also sounds "Sex and the City"-ish with a little bit of "Weeds" thrown in. As I said, not too original.
-
Kinda like Lifebo is for lesbos, and soccer moms.
-
remember that sitcom she made a while ago? that was shit.. I always thought it was funny how the name "daniel paladino" showed up next to hers, as if we gave a shit about him. it was like "omg, a new sitcom! from amy sherman palladino! AND daniel paladino!!!!". who cares about daniel paladino?
-
That's the only new series I want to see from HBO these days.
-
i'll pass.
-
i had never heard of George RR martin. My bro is a big fan. reading game of thrones. right at this very moment. unlike anything i have ever read. superlative stuff.
-
Clever sure, cute yes. I could even go so far and say it was witty. But funny, no.
-
Hire her...she ain't working. Hey, that was my first "Gotta Eat" post.
-
Sucks. And I don't see this project as working. GG worked because it showed a schism of middle class vs. upper crust. Upper crust for 60 minutes...no.
-
...she had ended Gilmore Girls after Season 3. Extreme case of diminishing returns after that.
-
no WB flacks to get in the way!!
-
for leaving GG. Season 7 was fucking horrible. The blame is all hers for leaving. ASP should never be allowed another show again, she abandoned her child.
-
People talking incredibly fast, and using literary references?
-
If your looking for an HBO show not made for gays and girls, get ready for Game of Thrones.

Jesus -- did you guys watch Gilmore Girls in your nightgowns?!
by borishumphrey
That show made straight men's ears bleed. If you were not a victim of ear bleeding, you are a special kind of gay. If I accidentally walked into the room while the wife was watching that show, my balls tried to climb up into my body. There's nothing clever or funny or witty about people talking non-stop in ways that no real people would ever talk. It was cute when Tarantino did it, but he's a dude. If it weren't for Hung, I'd have no HBO on my dance card. AMC and Showtime seem to be producing all the stuff that HBO used to produce.
-
Dudes that watched Gilmore Girls are crossdressers. BUT watching a show about a dude with a big 'ol cock is.......what? Certainly not more gay then a dude wearing a nightgown. Oh wait....

Hung is about a man's man using his meat sword to get ahead
by borishumphrey
But if you're more at home watching two broads gab non-stop on a couch, then pour yourself another Cosmopolitan, precious.
-
Now run along and watch your phallic centered TV, convincing yourself that those feelings for Tom Jayne are 'cause he was so cool in Punisher.
-
because Lauren Graham is all kinds of HOT!!! and the show was actually funny and well written for the most part.
-
And their mother is a writer, and all their aunts are writers, and so are their grandmothers, nieces and daughters.

Hopefully it's more like Gilmore Girls and less like Jezebel Jam
by ribbons
...because holy crap that sucked.
-
"It was cute when Tarantino did it, but he's a dude." Wow. EPIC FAIL. But congratulations for demonstrating just what a manly man you are to a room full of people who don't give a shit.
-
A bunch of daughters who can't please their domineering mother. And the only man mentioned is a "ne'er do well". That sure sounds like a woman show to me.
-
Never seen Gilmore Girls and don't plan to. This show sounds like a Sex and the City wanna be. Now Game of Thrones will be Epic TV.
-
Evidently you havent read Game of Thrones? There may not be a more manly series of books in history. In addition to being far and away the best fantasy series in history, yes better then LOTR. Far better, in fact. The only people who disagree with that statement are those who havent actually read Game of Thrones.
-
...to watch a chick show. Go for it. Gilmore Girls (or anything created by that hag) is the anal sex of the straight male world. The opposite sex may tell you it's cool to be experimental and try new things, but they won't respect you in the morning. It's cool though -- I'll be at your lady's house, banging her brains out, while you're curled up in your pink dressing gown watching Gilmore Girls.
-
at the moment. utterly spellbinding.
-
real men watch/read Sci-Fi. And don't tell me Fanatsy is, because it ain't.
-
Obviously, because that's the exact demographic the producers of The Pacific were going for.
-
"Hung", BorisHumphrey? Really? Really?

Why does everyone assume Hung is a homoerotic series about a guy
by borishumphrey
Are you that petrified of your own small members that you can't watch a show about a guy with a huge cock without thinking you might be gay? Or do you just want to serve back at me your own gayness for watching Gilmore Girls. You seriously equate Hung, about a guy with a huge dick who goes out and nails women for money, to a show about two bitches who can't shut the fuck up? I heard the crew had to wear oxygen tanks because the cast was constantly using up all the air on the set.
-
Take your father and your best buddies out for drinks at a bar and then tell them that you prefer Gilmore Girls over Hung. If your father doesn't slap the taste out of your mouth, then he is clearly post-op.
-
You like Hung because it's about a guy with a huge dick? That's cool, I guess.
-
I relate to a guy with a big dick, you relate to a couple of ladies talking about tampons or whatever it is they're saying when you hit the slow-mo button. Ribbons, I can smell you menstruating from here.
-
...of course a big component of Hung is that Thomas Jane's character is broke, divorced, has no home, and two children who disappoint him. I find the suggestion that you have a huge dick and a fantasy sex life pretty hard to believe, but all that other stuff seems pretty plausible, now that you mention it.

Ribbons, I hope you don't give your husband this much lip
by borishumphrey
I live what I talk. Unfortunately, I think you do too.
-
All I've "talked" is that I watched The Gilmore Girls and think you're a massive tool (not to be confused with the shrivelled member you have in your pants); all the psychobabble about frustrated manhood and latent homoeroticism came out of your mouth. But hey, you live what you talk, right? Anyway, this has been fun Boris (probably for the both of us), but I think it's about time you got back to the IMDb message boards.
-
My dad, an ex seal never bothered with the slapping, he was more about the slitting. Also, he didn't watch tv. He most especially wasn't as preoccupied with a dudes cock and balls as you apparently are. But hey, you're kind of funny so your not all bad. Also, cock is more gay then pussy dude, FACT.
-
Start this sure-to-be-queer annoying gabfest that only fruitcakes, teenage girls who want to appear mature, and Herc will like. Episode 3, have a portal open and they all appear in the castle of Ser Walder Frey, to celebrate a wedding. And then let that brilliant fat, toadlike little writers-block having genius George Martin take over and slaughter the fucking lot of them. WINTER IS COMING, BROTHER !
-
And stop talking about all these suck ass queer shows.
