her memoir, “The Third Gilmore Girl,” Bishop wrote, “Alexis and I rarely hung out during our off-hours, but I thought the world of her; and Lauren and I hung out a lot and had even started referring to each other as ‘TVM’ (TV Mom) and ‘TVD’ (TV Daughter).” “Gilmore Girls” ran for seven seasons from 2000 to 2007, on the WB (and later the CW).
It also returned for a 2016 Netflix revival. Created by Amy Sherman-Palladino and set in the quaint town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, the hit show followed fast talking young mom, Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham), and her daughter, Rory (Alexis Bledel), through their romances, Lorelai’s issues at her job running an inn, Rory’s high school and college years (and her dubious adulthood, in the revival).
Bishop co-starred as Lorelai’s wealthy and often disapproving mother – and Rory’s grandmother – Emily. For Season 7, Sherman-Palladino and husband Dan Palladino didn’t return after negotiations with the network fell apart.Recalling that time, Bishop wrote, “A new writing team was brought in for the seventh season, and I know they tried their best, but there’s no such thing as trying to be Amy Sherman-Palladino.
We actors were contractually obligated for that seventh season, and we did the best we could.”Bishop admitted that without the original creators, “It just seemed to get kind of sleepy and tired from one week to the next, as if the air was being slowly let out of a big, sparkly balloon, and we could sense that the party might be ending, even though no one wanted to say it out loud.”However, Bishop, who is also known for “Dirty Dancing,” had plenty of praise for the show, writing, “The humor was a delight, and utterly unique.
