There are countless awesome tv series with female showrunners at the helm. Thus far, I've only covered "Gilmore Girls" in its entirety, but there's more TK! "My Brilliant Friend" is next.
Directing and writing credits:
Written by Elaine Arata, directed by Bruce Seth Green. Both are new to me and have pretty underwhelming IMDB pages. Elaine Arata also wrote episode 1.20 of "GG," "P.S. I Lo...," along with a few episodes of "7th Heaven&
In this episode, the characters find out everything we already knew or strongly suspected:
* Miranda and Adrian are using a surrogate for their baby. Miranda thought she was a student, but she's Mahlee, the sick girl with the panda bear at Silk 41.
* Robin tells Miranda that Puss

Written by Amy Sherman-Palladino, directed by Lev L. Spiro. In an attempt to find an old interview with ASP, I stumbled across this behind the scenes documentary from Season 1 (it was a special feature on the DVDs). Check it out if you have 20 minutes
This episode was hard to watch. Puss is maybe one of the most despicable, vomit-inducing TV villains I've ever come across. If I encountered a man like him in the real world, I don't think I could retain my composure as well as Robin. I would

Written by Joan Binder Weiss, directed by David Petrarca. Binder Weiss also wrote "Love and War and Snow," which I watched last week. I wish I could find a solid interview with her somewhere or more information, but I poked around and came up
Today I saw a review on The Atlantic with this subheading: "Elizabeth Moss, Nicole Kidman, and Gwendoline Christie star in a returning series gone very wrong." Admittedly, I haven't finished the season yet, but after an episode like this one, I'm pretty shocked there&
In Season 1 of "Top of the Lake," Jane Campion worked with an Australian co-director named Garth Davis. He only directed one episode alone, but worked with Campion on 4 others. At the time, I was like, "Who the hell is this guy?" He was an
"Top of the Lake" is back and I couldn't be happier. Jane Campion is one of the best living directors and I'm happy to watch her work on the big or small screen. If you've never watched "Top of the Lake&

Written by John Stephens, directed by Bethany Rooney. Stephens seems to specialize in teen shows that I weirdly love and have re-watched multiple times even though I'm an adult with self-proclaimed good taste. Please don't judge me. He's written 7
Directing and writing credits:
Written by Amy Sherman-Palladino, directed by Lesli Linka Glatter. I'm pretty sure I could identify every episode written by the Palladinos without the help of IMDB. They each have such distinctive writing styles and the joke and insult density is unparalleled by any of

Written by Joan Binder Weiss, directed by Alan Myerson. Binder Weiss worked on Gilmore Girls from Season 1-3 and has 5 writing credits and 42 story editor credits. She also wrote 1 episode of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and Summerland, two of my guilty pleasure shows

This episode was written by the one and only Jenji Kohan. You may have heard of a few little shows she’s created since then, “Weeds” and “Orange is the New Black.” She worked on "GG" for one season, but this is her only
