There's been awesome news lately for Gilmore Girls fans — first, Lauren Graham got cast in Maura Tierney's role in Parenthood, and now the beloved show's co-creator, Amy Sherman-Palladino, has just scored a deal to write and executive produce a show for HBO.
The premise of Palladino's new show isn't too far from Gilmore Girls: it'll focus on three sisters and their complicated relationships with their mother and each other. It is far from Stars Hollow, though; the sisters, all writers, share the same apartment in New York City (guess NYC rent prices are still high in a recession).

It hurts me so much to write this post, because the fact is, The Return of Jezebel James should be my new favorite TV show. It stars Parker Posey, one of my favorite actresses of all time, alongside Lauren Ambrose, who absolutely stole my heart as Claire Fisher on Six Feet Under. It has an intriguing plot: The sister who has her life together (Posey) can't have children, so she asks her screwed-up younger sister (Ambrose) to carry a child for her.

Who's that lady wearing the funny hat?
Why, that's Amy Sherman-Palladino, the writer/producer behind "Gilmore Girls" and the upcoming Fox series "The Return of Jezebel James."
Great.

The "Gilmore Girls" won't be gone for long if series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino has her way. When TV Guide's Michael Ausiello tracked her down at Fox's Upfronts party last week, she told him she was hoping to write a two-hour TV movie to tie up all the loose ends from the show's finale.
Of course, that would be contingent on the cast coming back for the project — and given that the show was canceled because stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel didn't sign contracts to return, I doubt that's a sure thing.
