People often mistake Independence Inn's manager, headstrong
single mom Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and her equally willful teenage
daughter, Rory (Alexis Bledel) for sisters. Lorelai and Rory cope with the same
emotional ups and downs, including Lorelai's overbearing, old-money parents and
the joys and frustrations of the male gender. But when Rory's attention turns
from dreams of private school and Harvard to thoughts of boys and adolescent
self-reliance, single mom Lorelai begins noticing more of her own rebellious
youth-only 16 years ago-in Rory. This heartfelt, humorous drama appeals to young
and old alike with its blend of traditional family issues and hip, contemporary
attitude.
