Ran across this on The TV Addict blog. It’s about The Return of Jezebel James. If you haven’t heard about it yet, Jezebel James is Team Palladino’s new project, a pilot for Fox for 2007. It’s a half-hour sitcom starring Parker Posie and Lauren Ambrose. And I also understand Scott Cohen (who played Max Medina in our beloved Gilmore Girls) has been signed on as the boyfriend.
In a blog post today, The TV Addict says:
If you are interested in attending a private run-thru of the show on Thursday, April 5th at Paramount Studios in the afternoon, email us at thereturnofjezebeljames@yahoo.com and we will give you the details and even pay for your parking. You must be 18 or older.

Ally McBeal is one of the few shows, like Gilmore Girls that I can put on and just watch, marathon fashion, for days on end. In fact, once I start watching it, I can’t stop.

Ally McBeal is also one of those shows that like Gilmore Girls gets better every time I watch it.
One of the nice things about Ally McBeal that I enjoy, me personally, is that it’s set in Boston, Massachusetts. And the show has some spectacular establishing shots of Boston, especially from the air. I’m from the Boston area myself. And I love these. It’s so cool to recognize the Boston skyline. I’m like, I know that place. But this isn’t a reason Ally McBeal should be a Gilmore-ism.
There’s more to Ally McBeal than the fact that a hard-core Gilmore Girls fan like me first fell in love with Ally McBeal. I’m a little disappointed that Gilmore Girls with its host of pop-culture references has never referred to Ally McBeal. (And if you know of such a reference, please point it out to me!) Ally McBeal deserves a GG reference. Here are my top 11 reasons why. Click to continue »
