Here's What 'Gilmore Girls' Would Be Like If Sookie Wrote The Scripts

It seems like we've been waiting decades now for the reboot of "Gilmore Girls," aka "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life."

Rest assured, the series is definitely happening, but maybe not quite the way Melissa McCarthy imagines it.

In a recent interview with E! News, the actress who plays Lorelai Gilmore's best friend, Sookie, joked she's been writing her own version of the show.

There's only four movies [in the reboot series], but I have written an additional 696 episodes. It's just kind of me and a voice-over...

Considering at first it seemed like Melissa wasn't even going to be in the revival at all, it's nice to know she's getting involved in the story.

OK, yes, Melissa was joking, but how awesome would the reboot series be if it was just Sookie fan fiction written by her?

First of all, there would be WAY more Sookie. Which I think we all want.

And there would also be way more Jackson, which I think we're all neutral/positive on.

Lorelai would probably come off as a little more self-centered, but still awesome.

And Rory would still be the same old Rory, of course.

Wait, I actually really want this show to happen now.

Sookie St. James for president 2020.
