While they thankfully don't have to wait too long, as NBC announced that the show would be returning as part of its fall lineup on September 22, that hasn't stopped them from snooping.

The actress shared on her Instagram Stories a throwback picture from the set of the 1990 film Cry Baby, starring Johnny Depp and Amy Locane. The picture featured the two on a blanket as director John Waters coached them through their kissing scenes, which have since become iconic.

Miranda shared it on her Story with the caption: "This is our lives," while tagging her co-star Taylor Kinney, who plays Kelly Severide.
