If you hadn’t heard, your favorite childhood show, "Gilmore Girls", is getting a reboot on Netflix! The four 90-minute episodes will address a lot of what’s been happening in Stars Hollow since the end of the series in 2007. However, it’s been said that Melissa McCarthy's character, Sookie St. James, won’t be included in the revival. While McCarthy claims that no one asked her to be part of the project, creator Amy Sherman-Palladino claims that McCarthy’s schedule is just too hectic, making it difficult to include her.
It’s possible that Sookie St. James’ return to Stars Hollow might still be up in the air. Hopefully, something can be worked out because we all know that the new episodes won’t be the same without our favorite chef. However, whether or not she returns, here are 12 times when Melissa McCarthy’s character outshone the rest.
1. She understood your intense obsession with food.
2. She understood so much that she even named her cake.
3. She once accidentally set a kitchen fire after hearing about Rory’s acceptance to Chilton.
4. She channels her inner 12-year-old.
5. In fact, she channels it multiple times.
6. She didn’t give a damn about Michel’s diet.
7. She was you on your awkward first date with that guy who you really liked.
8. She was your Saturday at 3:00 a.m. post-bar spirit animal.
9. She invented new words to express multiple emotions.
10. This happened.
11. This happened too.
12. But, ultimately, you fell in love with her for this.
Hey, Amy Sherman-Palladino, try your hardest to incorporate Sookie into the revival. Stars Hollow won't be the same without her.
