Every time she tries to assert herself as a doctor to the people in Bluebell, I just go ‘pffffttttt’. Even at the end of a whole season I don’t see her as a doctor, but she did grow on me, as a character. Zoe was a bit hard to buy because she doesn’t come across as a doctor at all. Even the little bit on the town centre is similar to the one in Stars Hollow. The quirkiness of the town and its characters remind me a bit of Stars Hollow in Gilmore Girls, which is one of my favourite tv shows. I like the concept of Bluebell a lot actually. And they take themselves really seriously too. I don’t even know how they make these up. If you are looking for some compelling plot that inspires thought or poignant medical dilemmas, please look elsewhere.įor the first few episodes we are introduced to quirky Bluebell and their various traditions and festivals and parades. This series doesn’t take itself too seriously – it seemed like a huge ball of fluff when I first watched it, and eventually I’ve come to a conclusion that it’s a really cute ball of fluff. It is a really lighthearted series, with characters and issues that everyone can somehow relate to, despite the absurdity of Planksgiving, for example. The drama revolves around Zoe trying to fit in to Bluebell and get the town to accept her as a doctor and as one of them. Her father, Brick also dislikes Zoe because he obviously expected to have the whole practice to himself after Harvey’s death. That creates a lot of tension and rivalry between the two ladies, as Lemon immediately dislikes Zoe for disrupting her perfectly planned life. She develops a huge crush on him straight away, only to find that he’s engaged to Lemon, the daughter of the other doctor at the practice. When she first arrived in Bluebell, Zoe meets George, the town lawyer who saves her from the mayor’s pet crocodile. Why is that? From everything I said earlier it seems like a premise for sufficient cute bickering to falling in love to keep us entertained. They share a cute bickering relationship which develops into a one-sided love from his end. Another tenant at the Mayor’s is Wade Kinsella, bartender at the local pub who constantly has run-ins with Zoe. The mayor is Lavon Hayes, a former football star and they immediately strike up a bond. She later discovers that Harvey Wilkes was her biological father and decides to stay in Bluebell.īluebell isn’t such a great place to live in, especially when you’ve come from high-flying New York. She takes up Dr Harvey Wilkes’s offer to work in his local practice, but when she arrives at Bluebell she finds out that he’s passed away and has left his half of the practice to her. So Bluebell is where our leading lady Zoe Hart ends up in after failing to secure a fellowship in a cardiothoracic surgery. Since I’ve never actually heard a true-blue Southern accent apart from on-screen, I don’t think it’s fair to comment on that too much and I eventually got used to how the characters speak. So be prepared for heavy Southern accents all around. It’s a romantic comedy set in a southern town of Bluebell, Alabama. 1.Hart of Dixie is another TV series I picked up recently, having stumbled upon the first episode and (surprisingly) enjoying it. I thought it was only best to take a little trip, and knew you would want to come along - because wherever Stars Hollow leads, who wouldn't want to follow? So, without further delay, here's your convenient travel guide to steer you in the right direction of all the best small towns in TV shows that all fans of Gilmore Girls - and Stars Hollow - will love. In the midst of my Stars Hollow dreams, I began to think about all the other shows that would bring me what I craved so much while watching Gilmore Girls - that perfect small town feel, witty personalities, and an abundance of crazy drama. Granted, Luke Danes - the grumpy diner owner and long-time resident of the town - constantly questioned the insanities of such close quarter domains, like there being “twelve stores in town devoted entirely to peddling porcelain unicorns,” the trials and tribulations of small town life wouldn't be the same without such a captivating setting. For me, the idyllic setting - which Rory and Lorelai called their home for the seven seasons the series was on air - was hard to not be swept up into. Though Stars Hollow's assortment picturesque landmarks and quirky townsfolk are strictly fictional, it's the eccentricity, the tight-knit communities, and the charm of rich storytelling possibilities that make me want to pack my bags and move to a town like it. Ever since I was introduced to the world of Stars Hollow in Gilmore Girls nearly 16 years ago, I have always wanted to live in a small town.
