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.

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...

Grief in the Shadows: Why 'The Silencing' Stands Out

  A moody thriller about grief, violence, and how far we go for the ones we love. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau ( Game of Thrones ) is Rayburn Swanson , a former hunter who now lives in isolation, running a wildlife sanctuary named after his missing daughter. Years after she vanished, Rayburn is just barely functioning—haunted, grieving, and clinging to the hope that she might still return. When a murdered girl turns up in the woods with eerie similarities to his daughter's disappearance, the local sheriff, Alice Gustafson ( Annabelle Wallis ), launches an investigation. Rayburn, meanwhile, accidentally crosses paths with a mysterious masked figure hunting a girl on his land. This encounter pulls him into the heart of the case in ways he never expected. The investigation twists, misleads, and slowly unravels, building toward a reveal that isn’t obvious—and intentionally so. Nothing is as straightforward as it seems. Themes of Grief and Family What makes The Silencing compelling is...

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...
