Gilmore Girls - A funny way to end your day

This blog is all about art, all kinds of art. I decided to broaden the themes of the blog, as art is a wonderfully abstract concept where almost anything can fit in.

For me, art is something that betters someone’s day or makes them think, something that could fascinate them or maybe even scare them. Art is something about the way in which you see life, the way you relax, and the way you work. Summing it up, art is everything that makes you actually feel something.

So, there’s a lot of stuff that could fit in this description of mine, don’t you think?

I love shows and series. They’re my way to unwind at the end of the day, and when they are really good, they inspire me. From my perspective, they clearly fit into this category.

So I decided to talk about some of them, the ones I watched, am currently watching, or intend to watch, and share with you how I feel about them.

My first post on this subject is about an old TV series that I am currently watching for the very first time: Gilmore Girls. In my country, it was called “Like mother, like daughter,” and back in the day, I was curious about it but never got around to watching it.

Now, I found it on Netflix and finally decided to watch it. Well, what can I say? I just can’t stop…

It’s funny, relaxing, and improves my mood. For someone who just became a mother, especially to a little girl, it’s quite interesting to observe such a special relationship. I can imagine how my baby will be as a teenager and how I’ll be as a mother to a teenager.

The characters are not especially deep, yet not quite superficial either. You can relate to most of them and envision yourself in some of these humorous situations. And most importantly, the main reason I keep watching the show is that you laugh.

Rory (you can also watch Alexis Bledel in Mad Men) and Lorelai’s (Lauren Graham) adventures are a good note on which to end my day.

Gangsta Granny – Hilarious and Surprisingly Moving

I have a ten-year-old daughter, and one thing we like to do is read the same books so we can talk about them afterward. Gangsta Granny was a birthday gift for her, and she read it so quickly that it immediately made me curious. When a child finishes a book that fast, you know something is working. When I finally read it myself, I was pleasantly surprised — and completely charmed. A Story That Is Funny and Moving At first glance, Gangsta Granny is a crazy, over-the-top, and very funny story. David Walliams clearly knows how to make children laugh, using absurd situations, exaggerated characters, and a fast-moving plot that keeps young readers hooked. But beneath the humour, the book is also sweet, touching, and emotionally rich. What starts as a wild adventure slowly reveals a story about family, loneliness, empathy, and learning to truly see the people around us. This balance reminded me of Roald Dahl’s books , where outrageous humour and emotional depth coexist effortles...

The Handmaid’s Tale – From Brilliant to Frustrating

When The Handmaid’s Tale first aired, it felt sharp, terrifying, and painfully necessary. I wrote about the first season as a dark and brilliant adaptation, one that used restraint, symbolism, and dread to tell its story. Now that I've finished the third season, my opinion has shifted — not wholly, but noticeably. The show is still good . Sometimes very good. But it also became frustrating, uneven, and less powerful than it could have been. June Osborne: From Survivor to Exhaustion Let’s talk about June (Elisabeth Moss, Mad Men ). I understand the idea behind her arc. She was meant to evolve — to become more confident, more assertive, more dangerous. A woman shaped by trauma who stops surviving and starts fighting back. On paper, it makes sense. On screen, however, it often doesn’t work. June becomes reckless to the point of irresponsibility. She repeatedly puts others in danger without seeming to fully care about who might be caught in the crossfire. Her actions feel impuls...

A Surprisingly Delightful Journey Through the Galaxy

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was already a favorite book of someone very close to me, but I wasn’t sure it would become my gem. I had also read several reviews claiming it wasn’t funny at all. That made me even more skeptical. Humor is subjective, after all — and clearly this book isn’t for everyone. But I gave it a try. And I was positively surprised. Reading the Ultimate Edition I picked up The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy , a special edition that includes: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy The Restaurant at the End of the Universe Life, the Universe and Everything So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish Young Zaphod Plays It Safe Mostly Harmless I intend to read the remaining stories as soon as I can. If the first one is any indication, the journey through the rest of the galaxy will be just as strange — and just as thought-provoking. Absurdity as a Mirror of Humanity What struck me most is how full the story is of metaphors ...
