The Third Gilmore Girl

by Kelly Bishop

sometimes serendipity shows up in our lives disguised as the worst news you can possibly imagine.

Thanks to this extraordinary script, I might have an opportunity to explore Louise and her strained relationship with my mom through exploring Emily and her strained relationship with Lorelai, and, to add to the perfection, play a cold, condescending, emotionally distant mother, which is infinitely more fun than playing a nice one.

I left feeling unbearably sad but at peace, and so grateful to Star for letting me share some of the last precious moments of Ed Herrmann’s life. He used to say, “I’ve had three wives—the blond Star, the silver star [his first wife, Leigh Curran], and Kelly.” I’ll always be honored to have been one of them.

I personally think it was Logan, by the way. I was always Team Logan.
