I just feel like hes here.
This is an emotional experience.
It has the loss of a person I love around it.
I went to dinner with Ed frequently.
It was a real loss of a friend, says Graham, her eyes filling with tears.
(I didnt used to be [emotional]!
she says with a laugh.)
Its sad without my darling Edward Herrmann, she says, recalling happier days.
We used to do our crossword puzzle together in the makeup trailer.
Gilmorecreator Amy Sherman-Palladino chose to honor Herrmann through the storytelling.
Like, what direction am I walking?
[Herrmanns death] left a big void, but Amy honored it beautifully.
Hes throughout … these stories.
Its a wonderful homage to him as a person and to his character as well.
Its nice to have him around.
