Quote of the Day

.
"Well I’ve gotta say, now that The Comeback has returned, we can never say never, even if it’s nine and a half years later. So that’s exciting. I know that the story closed now, but I guess you never know. Oh my God. I would play Amy any day of the week. I just love her so much, so it would be impossible to say no to getting to be in her skin more, as excruciating as it is."

That's Laura Dern talking about the possibility of Enlightened, her beyond-brilliant show with Mike White, staging a comeback a la Aunt Sassy. (thanks Mac) My boyfriend and I have had some variant of this conversation a dozen times squared over the past several months, so to hear Dern herself taking it on, well, it's sweet sweet music, y'all. 

That said I do feel like White & Dern managed to close Enlightened up on a pitch-perfect note, so if it's not meant to be I won't literally crumble to dust or anything. That that said, knowing that both Dern & White both want to tell more stories about Amy, well, maybe I will literally crumble to dust? Who knows? Stay tuned. You guys will be the first or at least fifth or sixth people that I tell if I literally crumble to dust, I promise.
