I don’t see any comparison to Gilmore girls at all whatsoever, except for the Yale graduate who had a major in journalism. I watched the pilot last night and I didn’t like it at all. I just thought it was kind of stupid! It didn’t have a point like Gilmore girls did! Frankly, I just did not see anything in common with Gilmore girls. Lucy Hale is a good actress though. She sucks compared to Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel!!!!!!!

I did not like the show to be honest; i thought it was kind of stupid and pointless. I personally think it was not like gilmore girls, and i think people were saying it is like gilmore girls only because one of the main charectors rose backer went to Yale and majored as a Journalist.

Uh, no. I saw the pilot and there was much fast-forwarding. I don’t think Joanna Garcia is a strong enough actor to pull off the role she was given. I also think Ashley Newbrough is totally miscast as Sage. She looks and acts too much like a college upperclassman and is not believable as a high school student. Of the three stars, Lucy Hale is the only one who is a positive. To bad Hale is doomed to being typecast as the clueless little sister. She’s going to have a heck of a time getting away from that.

I’ll watch this week, but I’m going to keep the fast forward button handy. There is pretty much no chance of this approaching Gilmore Girls (even Season 7) in terms of quality.

I don’t think any show can be like Gilmore girls even if they try.

I am so not interested in watching this show. I find it annoying that CW is trying to come up with another “Gilmore Girls” look-alike. They should have appreciated the show, the writers, and the cast more when it was on their network!

I was wondering when there would be an article about this.

After watching the first 10 minutes of the show I was getting rather bored of it to be honest. I was incredibly annoyed by the fact they said the Character Megan Smith was the “Next Rory Gilmore”. Sorry but I just can’t see Joanna Garcia pulling it off. Don’t get me wrong she was very entertaining on “Reba” but I just don’t find her very believeable at all.

Plus they used way to much of Rory’s character traits for the basis of there character, and I personally didn’t feel it worked.
