Lauren Graham talks to NewsWeek

Lauren Graham talks to Newsweek about the end of Gilmore Girls, Evan Almighty, etc.


Are you very upset?
Noooo!

What do you mean, no?
I think it's the best decision for the show. One of the things Alexis [Bledel, her costar] and I wished could be different was the schedule, and it really can't be.

Who wanted to break up more? You or Alexis?
I think we both had our moments. It's a hard show to do.

Have you dropped off your résumé at IHOP?
I need to get a couple of letters of recommendation.

Seriously, now are you going to be like, "Guys, I'm not picking up lunch for everyone?"
I did say to my agent, "Wait, do I have to fly coach now?" That's the one thing I really don't want to do.

At least you've got your "Evan Almighty" paycheck. Tell me: Steve Carell—not really funny, right?
Not funny, not charming. No, he's truly delightful and really smart.

"Evan" is sort of a Noah's Ark movie. Did you act opposite a lot of animals?
I was up close and personal with llamas, elephants, camels—camels are the smelliest, in case you were wondering. I was most impressed by the birds because I can't get my dog to do a lot of stuff, but these birds would fetch and carry like you've never seen.

You know what happened to Noah after the flood? He got drunk and exposed himself to his sons.
Now you've given away the ending of our movie.

You know a few years ago NEWSWEEK did a piece on how you and some other actors were the kiss of death for sitcoms.
Yes, I know. Thank you so much for that.

I didn't write it!
I remember I was on the beach and a friend was like, "You're in NEWSWEEK! Ohh."
