Lisa Edelstein is stepping into the role of self-help guru Abby McCarthy one last time.

The fifth and final season of Girlfriends Guide to Divorce just got underway, and although parting is bittersweet, Edelstein said its a good time for Bravos first-ever scripted series to bid adieu.

Theres something really special about knowing when you end, and it does something to the writing that you cant do on a show that is continuing without knowing whether its coming back next season, Edelstein told HuffPost at Build Series . Since we knew we were ending we got to write a beautiful ending for all of the characters in a way that was both satisfying, but that also made you yearn for a little bit more.

Edelstein thinks fans will be happy with where Girlfriends Guide to Divorce goes this season. With the chaos of her divorce behind her, Abby will be making decisions that arent coming from panic, Edelstein said. Well see Abby and Mikes (James Lesure) relationship grow, but Abbys ex, ex-husband, Jake (Paul Adelstein), isnt completely out of the picture.

She wants to take bold moves, Edelstein said.
