Directing and writing credits:
Directed by Gail Mancuso, written by Amy Sherman-Palladino. Mancuso also directed "Red Light on the Wedding Night" and I wrote a little bit about her career in that post.
In Sherman-Palladino news, here's a good article about her and "
Directing and writing credits:
Directed by Lesli Linka Glatter, written by Daniel Palladino. Linka Glatter is great and has directed many awesome shows and movies, including these previous "Gilmore Girls" episodes:
* "Pilot" (1.1) - the one where we meet those adorable Gilmore Girls for the very
Vibe:
Smart, funny, and beautifully shot, "Love & Basketball" has a top spot in my romantic comedy hall of fame. It's different from every other romcom out there, but I do think it loosely fits into the genre even though it subverts it in many ways.
Directing and writing credits:
Directed by Robert Berlinger, written by Amy Sherman-Palladino. This is Berlinger's first episode of "Gilmore Girls," and he'll go on to direct two others in Season 6: "Always a Godmother, Never a God" and "Twenty-One

Directed by Steve Gomer, written by Frank Lombardi. Both of these guys are "GG" one-and-dones. Notable lines on Gomer's resume include episodes of "Veronica Mars" and "Joan of Arcadia." Did anyone else used to watch the
Vibe:
Super 90s and full of attitude. "Just Another Girl on the I.R.T." is a coming-of-age story in the same vein as "Clueless" (Heckerling, 1995), "The Edge of Seventeen" (Fremon Craig, 2016), and "The Diary of a Teenage Girl&
Directing and writing credits:
Directed by Nicole Holofcener, written by Linda Loiselle Guzik. It's such a bummer to me that this is the episode they gave Holofcener. She's a talented, capable director, and some of that certainly shines through in "Secrets and Loans," but
Vibe:
Bleak, but not depressing. Lynne Ramsay is one of those directors that somehow always manages to find beauty where it doesn't seem to exist. Each frame of this film is gorgeously composed with a level of detail that is all too rare.
Ramsay's background in

Directed by Danny Leiner, written by John Stephens. Leiner is probably best known for directing stoner movies like "Dude, Where's My Car?" and "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle." He's also responsible for the "Freaks and
Directing and writing credits:
Directed by Michael Katelman, written by Daniel Palladino. I don't talk that much about the "Gilmore Girls" direction because honestly, it's pretty damn formulaic. Are you a competent director who is well-versed in early 2000s teen shows? Great, you&
On the anniversary of the Women's March and in the midst of #MeToo and #TimesUp, I think it's the right moment to declare that I am fucking done giving my time, money, and energy to shitty men. In 2017, I wrote seventy-three posts about badass

Directed by Dennis Erdman, written by Joan Binder Weiss. The most notable credit on Erdman's resume is for "Running with Scissors," the "Sex and the City" episode where Natasha finds out that Big and Carrie are lying/cheating assholes and
