The Gilmore Girls revival has us all on tenterhooks and we have been loving hearing the alumni that have agreed to take a trip back to Stars Hollow for the 4 episode Netflix run.
However, this bit of news has left us a little confused.
Remember a couple of weeks ago we heard that Sookie aka Melissa McCarthy was apparently not invited back onset? Well, TVLine report that Jackson Douglas, who played her husband of the same name is going to make an appearance.
He tweeted the announcement yesterday:
I got my GG script today! Hooray! Hey that rhymes!

WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE SOOKIE? Will Jackson have to explain her absence?
The show’s creator did have this to say to TVLine: “She’s really f—ing busy,” Sherman-Palladino acknowledged in the Q&A. “But the thing I have said [to her team] is, ‘Look, if Melissa is available and has an afternoon free, I’ll write her a scene. Melissa was one of us. If she has a spare moment to run over [to the set] — even if for just a cameo — we would be totally game. And if it’s a last-minute thing, I would write her in and we would figure it out. That’s the way we left it.”
