really nice to read that lauren is remembered so well

today i opened up the newspaper and when i took a look at the media-part i could find a comment about the last episode of gilmore girls airing tonight here in germany.he (!!!) wrote something about the show - it was really nice and well written. he didn't write anything about lauren though.
the headline was "the last sip of coffee"

Is it me or does it sound like Amy is not the easiest person to work for

seems that way.

But nice to see that people miss Lauren's work on GG. I have to say I don't really even care to watch the ROJJ. And it's been getting really bad ratings and reviews too.

From an article today titled:

There May Be Cracks, But The Comedy Glass Ceiling Still Exists For Women

Quote:

...After reading this month's "Who Says Women Aren't Funny" issue of Vanity Fair, it is impossible not to notice just how many beyond the current "it" girls of comedy were left off that list. This is an attempt to rectify that and garner them the recognition they so rightly deserve....

...Finally, we'd be remiss if Lauren Graham was passed over from yet another list of acknowledgment. Never nominated for an Emmy despite pulling out bubbly banter week after week for seven seasons on Gilmore Girls, Graham has not yet been given the opportunity to really shine on the large screen. At least on The-WB-turned-CW, Graham was allowed to be both the beautiful romantic lead and the quirky (usually secondary) character who always had something offbeat to say, but in the half-dozen or so independent comedies in which she has acted during and since (Seeing Other People and The Amateurs, to name two) and even the fewer big studio films (Bad Santa, Evan Almighty, Because I Said So), she has been resigned to take a backseat as characters who flit on-screen just to offer a few meek punch lines.

Perhaps it should be no surprise then that Graham is moving into slightly more dramatic material with the upcoming Birds of America and Flash of Genius in order to prove her intense training (she holds a Master's Degree in acting) will not be wasted on second-best roles. And whatever happened to that seven-figure deal she inked with NBC? Presumably the scripts they tossed her weren't worthy because she is in development on a show of her own - the only one on our list to follow in the footsteps of many in that Vanity Fair profile and make something happen for herself....

wow, gjoni, that´s a really great article. and of course I agree with every word. But what does it mean "she is in development on a show of her own"?

Thanks Gjoni. I love how Lauen is missed so badly.

Katka: They think that Lauren is making/developing a show herself. But they only think it, so it could also very well be not true. Which I think. I don't think she's making her own show

Hand to have bad rating since ROJJ doesn't air until today

gjoni Thanks for the article, love it a ITA. I've seen people say she hasn't been in a successful movie but in the same breath she's never been the lead, maybe if she saw that could change?

Wasn't that the online show she was making?

**perrygraham** · 03-14-2008, 04:01 PM

I think that was a reference to her NBC deal.

karen29 · 03-14-2008, 05:52 PM

Thanks Chrissi, aw the last sip of coffee, good thing I have my dvd's

Thanks gjoni for the article. Do they know something we don't? cause it seems to me they're alluding to Lauren working on something on her own.

Thanks for the article, beautifully written

Thanks for all the articles

Thanks for that article gjoni!!!

*Chrissi* · 03-15-2008, 09:49 AM

thanks for the article,it's really nice and i'm too wondering if we're ever getting some news about the NBC deal or if it's a "closed case"
