Ain't No One Going to Turn Me 'Round

I'm not gonna explain to you people why I found myself watching the pilot episode of Gilmore Girls yesterday, but something interesting did come up. While I knew from previous viewings against my will that the name of the school the kid attends is named Chilton, when the mother calls the school for the very fist time to talk about paying for tuition she asks to speak to a Mrs. Bell...as in Chris Bell? As in Chris Bell and Alex Chilton? As in, was the writer of this show a huge Big Star fan?!?!?!?

Either way, get thee over to HBO right now to watch this wonderfully done but tragically empty documentary about the band. Also see my recent post on how great Chris Bell was.
