"Before the first shot of season 7 of @veephbo. So deeply grateful to be back together with all these superb people," the 57-year-old actress tweeted Thursday, along with the video, which was shot in a hotel room.

In the clip, she says: "I really appreciate everyone coming back and working it out to come back. I am very grateful. Thank you very much. Love you guys. Season 7!"

She then blows a kiss to the crew as her co-star Tony Hale, who plays her loyal assistant, can be seen smiling in the background.

The show co-stars Anna Chlumsky, Kevin Dunn, Matt Walsh, Sam Richardson and Reid Scott.
