- Amy: The thing about The Sopranos is those characters are just brilliant. The fact that you could be so chilled and afraid of this man yet so adore and love him, it's an amazing testament to the incredible writing and beautiful performances.

- Amy: Families constantly change and evolve and die and have a stroke and slam the door and 'I hate you' and 'I love you,' that can go on forever. You never solve problems with a family. With a cop, he eventually retires.

- Amy: (comparing her "Gilmore Girls" characters to her and her husband) I think a lot of Lorelai's viewpoints are my viewpoints. But I'm a Jewish kid from the Valley. These are two WASPy kids from Connecticut. It's more like human aspects - there are certain aspects of Rory that are similar to my husband. He's organized. He loves to make lists. It takes us 12 years to buy a radio, because he has to investigate.
