“She was the best part of Gilmore Girls. I loved seeing a plus-sized character portrayed as beautiful, smart, talented, and witty. In a TV era where plus sized women were usually the butt of the joke OR their weight was a recurring storyline, it was NEVER an issue with Sookie and didn’t define her. She was perfect and adorable and I would’ve loved for her story and sweet, positive character to be the central part of a show.”
