Summary: not since.....
Review: There are very few reasons to even turn on the TV these days. With a plethora of quality shows being cancelled for less expensive reality programming, and extended "news" coverage, very few spots are left for great programs. And there's like what 500 channels? In any event, this show is truly a wonderful show. It is witty and intelligent, without being presumptuous or pretentious. It has the best assembly of eccentric characters since Northern Exposure. It is a very fresh look at many different relationships, not just the one scored by the title. The first season serves to set up a lot of these character relationships. While many shows, even the great ones, may take a while to find their footing, the Gilmore Girls is very quick to hit its' stride. Watching these beginning episodes is quite fun, and a very refreshing change from what can be a painful experience, in watching a show go through its' growing pains. I find it difficult to believe that one could not fall very much in love with this show, were they to set aside any preconceived notions, and just watch. For those that are looking, this is a sure bet.

Summary: Simply the best... (also, tips on how to get the booklet)
Review: Gilmore Girls is definitely the top show on television. I cannot get over how witty the writing is and how well-developed each character becomes with each episode. Set in the small town of Star's Hollow, Gilmore Girls continues to entertain me with each episode that I watch. The quirky characters and beautiful Connecticut scenery are part of what makes this show so appealing. Every character on the show brings a smile to my face- from Lorelai's witty comments, to Rory's sensibility, to Sookie's bubbliness, to Laine's need to escape her mother's authority, and to Richard and Emily's disapproval of everything. Not only that, but the episodes never get boring so you can watch them over and over again! This DVD set is no exception to the high quality of the show; the picture and sound quality are crystal clear and the extra features were very well put together. Though it would be nice to see some bloopers, the special features are a nice treat to watch after seeing the heart-warming, feel-good episodes. I highly recommend this DVD set to anyone who wants the best of the best! Keep the DVD sets coming, looking forward to season 2.
Also, if you live in Canada and your set did not include a booklet , as mine did not, visit http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=1470 to find out how you can be sent a free booklet to complete your set. Hope this helps everyone!

Summary: Gilmore girls on DVD - (Many) Pros and (Very Few) Cons
Review: In the true Gilmore style (Pro/Con list), I thought I'd add my 2 cents about the Season 1 DVD set. Pros:
-Packaged beautifully, all 6 disks in one booklike case.
-The included booklet has all kinds of good information-show names, original release dates, directing and writing credits, episode summaries and chapter listings.
-Special Features:
*"Welcome to Gilmore Girls" is a cute behind-the-scenes kind of look at what went into making Gilmore girls happen. Nice interviews with cast members about auditions and the show's obscure references. It'd be nice if they continued this for each season's set.
*"Gilmore Goodies and Gossip" haven't watched it all the way through yet, but this feature is a "Pop Up Video" kind of feature on the "Rory's Dance" episode that gives us extra information. (You can also watch the episode without the goodies, they're on 2 seperate disks.)
*"Gilmore-isms" is a montage of cute little phrases/references said in Gilmore girls. -Clarity. This is a big Duh since it's a DVD set, but I've been watching old, VHS-taped episodes, so it's nice to see them with the right colors!
-Shipping through Amazon was practically overnight, very impressed.
-And the biggest Pro of all...Gilmore girls on DVD, period! Cons:
-Additional Scenes: There are only three. I wish there were more of them.
-Special Features: They're all nice, but I would have really liked to see something like bloopers/outtakes. I bet they'd be hilarious. -No episode listing anywhere besides the little booklet. Meaning, to figure out what disk to put in to watch "Kiss and Tell," you have to look in the little booklet. No listings by or on the actual DVDs. All in all, this set is great! I can't wait til Season 2 comes out.

Summary: What is UP?
Review: I love Gilmore Girls, and I love that we can buy them no DVD now! But when I bought this DVD set at the store on the release date, and opened it up there were two disk #1's insead on disk 1,2,... Has any one other than me had this problem?

Summary: Cute show
Review: I got hooked on this show about a year ago and have loved it ever since. I'm so glad they released season one so I can finally catch up with what all I have missed. Lauren Graham is tremendous as Lorelai and the way she interacts with her daughter is a treat. Growing up while being the child of a single parent, I respect the way that Lorelai treats Rory and the maturity involved in their relationship. Some may complin that the dialogue is a bit "wordy" or developed, but I say that Stars Hollow resembles a typical New England town where intelligence is the common. Special shout goes out to Sally Struthers as Babette (so sad when her cat dies) and Carole King who sings the opening theme (and later appears as a music store owner).

Summary: One of the top five shows on TV
Review: I couldn't even attempt to list my favorite shows in order of importance. Now that Friends is leaving, I am sad but comforted that at least I still have my "Gilmore Girls". This show has a biting quick wit. Now on DVD, I can watch some of my favorite episodes any time I want, and I find as I watch, not only am I recalling some of my favorite lines and puns, but I'm catching jokes I missed the first time around, and I am still laughing and still being surprised. This show is suitable for families to watch together, and enjoy quality time together as the Gilmore Girls do. This show is fresh, current with loads of pop culture references peppered through to keep you on your toes. Thank you WB for finally releasing the gilmore girls to be accessable, flowing out among the people with their brilliant humor and tongue twisting gymnastics. thank you
everyone enjoy!!!!!

Summary: Why all the stupid codes?
Review: Hey, I have the same problem as the person from Australia, I'm from Belgium and here they are still repeating the first half of the episodes.
I wanted to see if I couldn't buy the first season but there is always that small problem with the codes for zone 2.
Couldn't they just make the DVD's so they can be read in all zones?
Maybe I should start a petition! I am sure there are lots of people in Europe that want to purchase this fantastic serie.
Lots of love, Sarah

Summary: i love gilmore girls but....................
Review: i am a reallly big, and i mean big fan of the gilmore girls, but i only have one slight problem with the dvd.
you see i am from australia and well as you know it is only available in AMERICA (as usual) and canada because of coding or some nonsence.
gilmore girls is shown in many differenr countries, usually behind the US. how much longer will we have to wait for the dvd if they are a total season ahead of us on tv?
well that is my only complaint and hopefully someone will read this and help, if possible cause i know there are many fans of the gilmore girls around the world who would love to be able to collect alll the episodes on dvd to keep as memorabilia of such a great show!!!!!!!
