'Gilmore Girls' Was A Show That Never Got Any Emmy Respect - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

"Gilmore Girls": There weren't many other shows like it on TV: a hip mom, her teenage daughter/buddy, and a Connecticut town full of characters, all shooting off Amy Sherman-Palladino's rapid-fire, pop reference-laden dialogue. At some point, you would have thought that Sherman-Palladino, star Lauren Graham, who handled the dialogue and emotions like a pro, or supporting star Kelly Bishop would have at least gotten a nomination. But the show got nominated for only one Emmy in its seven-year run, for makeup. The show did at least get a win for its one and only nod; let's hope the makeup department lets Graham and Sherman-Palladino come and visit the Emmy every so often.

It should have won something. The show was that good especially in the beginning. I think it might trickled off as time went on but the series overall was very good. I think somewhat underrated.
