Thank goodness, Sookie St. James is returning to Stars Hollow.

Melissa McCarthy's breakout role was Gilmore Girls' Sookie St. James, best friend to Lorelai. Yet Amy Sherman-Palladino wasn't sure at first whether she would join the Netflix revival. "She's really fucking busy," the show creator said.

To wit, Melissa's new movie The Boss opens today (April 8). Yet to make things worse, the Bridesmaids star claimed that Amy never reached out to her. "Sadly no one asked me or Sookie to come back to Stars Hollow," she said on Twitter.

Well, that will-she, won't-she drama is over. "I’m going to go back and do it,” Melissa said to Ellen DeGeneres. "Amy Sherman-Palladino is going to squeeze me in to do it. I’m very happy to go back to Stars Hollow.” Watch Melissa share the good news, followed by a compilation of Sookie's best moments below.
