Just a few weeks ago, Entertainment Weekly reunited the cast and rumors of the show's return instantly sparked. Mia Kirshner reaffirmed everyone’s angst,  “There’s seems like such a hole in terms of the landscape that’s on television...there’s so many more stories to tell, that it’s crazy that this show doesn’t exist.”

The cast collectively later went onto say “We need more shows about community, acceptance, women, the power of friendship and the chosen family.” 

No word yet on when the show is slated to return, but here's to hoping for 2018!
