Blog # 7 - Gilmore Girls character info, Paris and Kirk


Liza Weil as Paris Geller.

Paris has a big crush on Tristin, but it just so happens that Tristin has a thing for Rory and tries to start a fight with her boyfriend at the time, Dean. Tristin’s crush on Rory is one of the reasons that Paris hates Rory in the beginning. Paris dreams of attending Harvard University, but she ends up going to Yale instead after being rejected by Harvard. Kirk Gleason (played by Sean Gunn http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Gunn ) is a weird, sweet-hearted man, he has had a crush on Lorelai for a long time until he meets, dates and falls in love with Lulu.

Blog # 6 - Gilmore Girls character info, Dean, Jess and Lindsay



Jared Padalecki as Dean
Forester.
                     
                          Milo Ventimiglia as Jess
                      Mariano.















Arielle Kebbel as Lindsay Lister.
Dean Forester (played by Jared Padalecki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Padalecki ) was the new guy in town, he has a sister named Clara and was Rory’s first boyfriend. Dean and Rory start to spend more time together and eventually start dating. They eventually start to have problems in their relationship due to the arrival of Jess Mariano (played by Milo Ventimiglia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milo_Ventimiglia ) who is Luke’s nephew. Jess’ mom, Liz, sent him to live with his uncle Luke in hope to “point him in the right direction”. He gets a job at Wal*Mart and starts hanging out with Rory, he seems to be heading in the right direction. It was quite evident that he had a crush on Rory and she starts to have feelings for him too. Dean gets jealous and brakes up with Rory. Although he was the reason for braking up Dean and Rory’s relationship, he begins dating Rory, but they have communication issues and end the relationship. After Rory graduates from Chilton, Jess leaves Stars Hollow for California. He later reappears briefly in season 4 and then again in season 7.  After Rory and Dean brake up, (while Jess and Rory are dating), Dean starts dating a girl named Lindsay Lister (played by Arielle Kebbel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arielle_Kebbel ) and marries her. Dean soon figures out that marrying Lindsay was a mistake because he is still madly in love with Rory. He and Rory start an affair, which is Rory’s “first time”. Lindsay eventually finds out and kicks Dean out. They divorce and soon after, Rory and Dean start dating but brake up for good because Rory starts to have feelings for a rich guy named Logan. I didn't really like Lindsay because she didn't seem like the girl for Dean. If I had to pick between Dean and Jess, i'd have a difficult time because i'm not to sure about who I think should be with Rory. They are both pretty awesome.

Blog # 5 - Gilmore Girls character info, Luke and Michel




Scott Patterson as Luke Danes.
Yanic Truesdale as Michel
Gerard.

Luke Danes (played by Scott Patterson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Patterson_(actor) ) owns a diner in Stars Hollow named “Luke’s Diner” that was previously owned by his father as a hardware store called “William’s Hardware”. Luke’s father was left to raised him and his sister, Liz, by himself when their mom passed away when they were very young. When his father died, Luke took ownership of the store and converted it into a diner, but kept it’s original name for awhile. Everyone in Stars Hollow seems to know about Luke’s crush on Lorelai, but he doesn’t act on it until the sixth season. Luke later finds out in the middle season six, that he had a 12 year old daughter named April, this causes strain on Luke and Lorelai‘s relationship. Michel Gerard (played by Yanic Truesdale http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yanic_Truesdale ) is the concierge at the Independence Inn. Michel is French, snobbish and not very polite or nice to anyone. He has a very distinguished style and a strict low carb diet. In the beginning, Michel holds a lot of hostility towards Luke and pretty much everyone he talks to, but as the series goes on Michel seems to become more friendly and tolerant of those around him.
