From the creators of ‘Generation Barney’, ‘Generation Gilmore Girls’ revisits the popular TV series and asks why it still resonates 25 years later. We learn how it shaped some of the actors who worked on it, and the fans who watch it. It’s about the television that comforts us and helps us become who we are, from the state that inspired the whole phenomenon.
In season one, ‘Generation Barney’ explored the media we loved as kids and how it shapes us. It’s about the purple dinosaur but it’s also about music and love and backlash and toys and nostalgia. Most of all, it’s about the television that helps us become who we are, from the station that helped launch Barney into the world.
