One actress. Two beloved shows. Two memorable characters. Just who am I referring to? None other than Lauren Graham who starred as Lorelai Gilmore and Sarah Braverman from Gilmore Girls and Parenthood, respectively. Graham portrayed two very different characters, but they had several similar qualities, including the fact that Lorelai and Sarah were both single mothers. Another thing they have in common is that they will forever be remembered by fans and that they both got themselves into some crazy, interesting, dramatic, and romantic situations.
With that said, it's time dedicated Gilmore Girls, Parenthood, and Lauren Graham fans have some fun by playing a game of "Who did it happen to: Lorelai Gilmore or Sarah Braverman?" Here's how it works: guess which event happened to what character based on a brief and vague description. Warning: this was made for the most avid fans of both TV shows, both characters, and, of course, the actress herself. Basically, if you've dedicated yourself to everything Lauren Graham, you'll ace this quiz.
