Gilmore Girls Star Weighs In on Team Dean vs. Team Jess Showdown
The Never-Ending Love Triangle
Ah, the age-old question that has haunted the fans of Gilmore Girls for years: who truly was Rory’s best beau? This hot debate has sparked countless Team Jess vs. Team Dean arguments that make the fiercest political battles seem like a friendly discussion about brunch. Even the Netflix revival left us with more questions than answers, ending with Rory expecting a baby and the mysterious father AWOL, though she did bump into all three of her ex-flames along the way.
Milo Ventimiglia’s Chill Vibes
So, what does Milo Ventimiglia, the man behind the swoon-worthy Jess Mariano, have to say about all this love drama? It turns out he’s all about that laid-back parenting life! He has a daughter now and openly admits that if she decides to swim Team Dean, he’s totally cool with it. “I’d be way okay if my daughter eventually watched the show and she was Team Dean,” he said. I mean, how chill is that? Forget high-stakes debates, this guy is just here for the good vibes!
Dean vs. Jess: The Battle of the Bulldogs
For those who need a quick refresher, Dean Forester, played by the equally charming Jared Padalecki, was Rory’s first sweet romance. He was the nice guy who loved her dearly, but alas, good grades weren’t the only thing Rory was leveling up in. Enter Jess, the dark, brooding bookworm who whisked her off into a whirlwind of love triangles and teenage angst. And then there was Logan, the rich dude in a blazer who swooped in when things went south with Jess. If you ask me, they all had their flaws, but isn’t that what makes them relatable?
Friendship Goals, Even Post-Gilmore
What’s really heartwarming is that despite the complicated love lives, the actors behind these characters have maintained a solid friendship since the series wrapped up. Milo spills the tea: “I know that Logan and Jess and Dean were kind of very spread apart in who they were as characters, but Matt, Jared, and I just click. They’re the best guys!”
Scott Patterson’s Hot Take
Now, if you thought that was the end of the debate, think again! Scott Patterson, who played Jess’s wise uncle and Rory’s unofficial dad figure, has a different spin. He thinks Rory should toss all the boys aside and start fresh. “I’ve been in either camp at one time or another in the past, but now I’d like to see her have a completely new experience,” he suggested. “None of these relationships worked out, and there’s a reason for that because they weren’t meant to.” Now that’s some solid wisdom!
Setting the Record Straight
So, while Team Jess, Team Dean, and Team Logan might never come to a definitive winner, one thing is clear: everyone involved still loves reminiscing about their time on Gilmore Girls. And who knows? Maybe Rory will find love in the most unexpected ways—just like us all! So, grab your popcorn because this debate isn’t going anywhere anytime soon!
