She returned for the Netflix reboot of the series, which was released last year.

The revival takes place almost 10 years later with Rory returning to Stars Hollow to see her mother Lorelai and her grandmother Emily.

The four episodes released on Netflix were separated by seasons; the series concluded with Rory and her mom Lorelai in conversation.

The last four words spoken were: 'Mom?' 'Yeah?' 'I'm pregnant.'

Melissa said at the TCA press tour: 'I had been waiting a long time to know, because [creator] Amy [Sherman-Palladino] had always said she knows exactly how it ends, but now it's like, "Is that the last four words?"' according to ET online.

She said there 'hasn't been a conversation as of yet' about Gilmore Girls returning for another season on Netflix.

The mother of two did say though if it did come back again, she joked that she wants to return as Lorelai, adding 'and that is a challenge to Lauren Graham.'

Nobodies is set to premiere on TV Land March 29.
