You'll find every episode of "Gilmore Girls" listed under this tag or on the dedicated "GG" page. It almost killed me, but I recapped all seven seasons along with "A Year in the Life."
Directing and writing credits:
"But Not as Cute as Pushkin" is directed by Michael Zinberg, written by Amy Sherman-Palladino. This is Zinberg's second episode of "Gilmore Girls," the first being "Afterboom," the one where Luke feeds Lorelai a Danish while she talks
Directing and writing credits:
"Emily Says Hello" is directed by Kenny Ortega, written by Rebecca Kirshner. Oretga is a Stars Hollow pro and has directed many previous episodes:
"They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?" - For once, the hideous early 2000s fashion of this show
Directing and writing credits:
"The Party's Over" is directed by Eric Laneuville, written by Amy Sherman-Palladino. This is Laneuville's first (and only) episode of "GG," but he's definitely a TV veteran with a long, impressive list of credits to his
Directing and writing credits:
"You Jump, I Jump, Jack" is directed by Kenny Ortega, written by Daniel Palladino. Ortega is a fucking powerhouse. When I see his name on the credits, I feel confident that the episode is going to slap. This is true not just of "
Directing and writing credits:
"Norman Mailer, I'm Pregnant!" is directed by Matthew Diamond, written by James Berg and Stan Zimmerman. Diamond has a few earlier episodes to his credit:
"The Hobbit, The Sofa, and Digger Stiles" - Marty, aka "Naked Guy," makes

Directing and writing credits:
"Tippecanoe and Taylor, Too" is directed by Lee Shallat Chemel, written by Bill Prady. Both of these people are relatively new to the "GG" universe. This is Chemel's only S5 directing credit, but she'll go on to produce

Directing and writing credits:
"A Messenger, Nothing More" is written and directed by Daniel Palladino. In standard DP fashion, this episode is chock full of townie hijinks. Stars Hollow's jour de fête is the Cider Mill Parade, complete with children dressed like apples and a creepy
Directing and writing credits:
In somewhat standard fashion, ASP writes and directs the S5 premiere. The pilot and Palladino-less S7 opener are the only exceptions to the norm. While I understand it, I totally resent her for leading us deeper into a third take of Rory and Dean's
Directing and writing credits:
"Raincoats and Recipes" is directed and written by Amy Sherman-Palladino. Despite all of the Rory/Dean fuckery, it's one of my favorites of the season. I wish ASP and Dan could clone themselves and write/direct everything.
Most batshit crazy outfit:

Directing and writing credits:
"Last Week Fights, This Week Tights" is directed by Chris Long, written by Daniel Palladino. This is Long's final directing credit after a long string of episodes starting in S2:
