It's tough to get any film made, even if you're Martin Scorsese. It's just hard to get films made.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I would recommend that any writer get off their ass at least once and just try it. Directing is a completely different set of muscles. It also affects your writing because, once you start directing, you tend to write your scripts with directing in mind.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
If something ain't working, it ain't working. You can't stick with it.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I think every writer has got to direct. If you don't direct, you can't protect your work. The only way to ensure that it's going to be as close as possible to what you put down on paper - and what you see and hear in your head - is to do it yourself.

The thing about 'Gilmore Girls' is that it's such a specific voice, and I lived with it for so long before it got on the air It's a very specific rhythm and a very specific banter.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
Dance was always part of my life because I was a dancer and my mother was a dancer, and I love the theater.

These television shows that have 14 shots of somebody looking at each other with the wind blowing through their hair drive me insane.

Girl power in my mind is to let girls be exactly what they are. Let them be angry. Let them be resentful. And rebellious. Let them be hard and soft and loving and sad and silly. Let them be wrong. Let them be right. Let them be everything. because, they are everything.

As a writer, all you want to do is write for great actors. That's all.

The whole world is out of time!

With a sitcom, everyday you do a run through, and people are judging you, and the scripts are being changed nightly, nightly, nightly.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I grew up in the Valley, and I didn't know any of our neighbors. I think when you grow up like that, there's always sort of a fantasy of a place where everybody knew each other, and you had that safe sort of feeling.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I don't begrudge anyone else for anything, but to me, I think the fans deserve to have a studio put money behind their product because when the fans put money into a project and it makes any sort of money, it goes back to the studio. I think that's a little shady.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
If we based everything in Hollywood on who was a nice guy, holy moly, we would have no movies. No actors would work. This is not an industry that is ruled by kindness and generosity.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
It helps, if you've directed, to be able to write a script that is director-friendly. You're really telling them [directors], This is how it works on this show. It takes some of the guesswork out of it.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I think I would be making a mistake to actively try and just do everything completely different from 'Gilmore Girls.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I don't go on the Internet. I never go on the Internet. I don't go on Twitter. I'm not on Facebook. I've seen friends go into dark, dark holes of sadness because of that. Frankly, I don't have the time or the attention span for it.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
No one in my writers' room can wear sweatpants.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
With directing, you have to wake up early, which stinks, but you get to hang out with the crew, you're laughing, you're active, and you're working with the actors. It's just more fun than writing. Writing is very hard.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
I think music on television is just uniformly dreadful. It is mundane, it says nothing.
