Graham: 'New role feels like a failure'
Lauren Graham has described her new character as "a failure".

The 42-year-old actress - famous for her role in Gilmore Girls - replaced Maura Tierney in the role of Sarah Braverman on NBC's Parenthood last year.

"What I've discovered and what I've really enjoyed about [Parenthood] is that I'm finding the many ways in which this character just continues to feel like a failure," she revealed during a conference call.

"Lorelai Gilmore had a very sunny outlook on things and it's been really interesting for me to play someone who is shouldering a lot of baggage in terms of being disappointed about where she is in life."

Parenthood begins Tuesday, March 2 at 10pm on NBC.
