End of a phase
I've been rewatching some old "Gilmore Girls" and "Veronica Mars" episodes lately. To my surprise, rather than finding them entertaining, I found them irritating. The characters were engaging, the dialogue witty, and the premises interesting, as always, but the interpersonal relations appalled me. I know that the nature of television dictates that one should always go for a clever exit line rather than stay and work something out, but I no longer find that amusing. I find it to be painful and immature. Not only do I not want to act like that, I don't want it in my life. I do not enjoy associating with people like that, and I do not find pleasure in watching others screw up their lives by acting stupid. So I guess this is it for me and television aimed at young women and teens.
