Gilmore Girls is greater than only a present—it’s a life-style, a faith.

Which is why many years after the present premiered in 2000, followers are nonetheless debating which boyfriend of Rory’s (Alexis Bledel) is finest for her: the unhealthy boy Jess Mariano (Milo Ventimiglia) who stole her coronary heart with a shared love of studying, fellow Yale scholar and grandparent-preferred selection Logan Huntzberger (Matt Czuchry), or her past love Dean Forester, performed by Jared Padalecki.

But because it seems, Jared himself has a take which may shock followers.

“What team am I?” the Supernatural alum teased to E! News at Steel City Comic Con. “All right, I’m Team Jess. I am.” (For extra from Jared’s interview, watch E! News August 12.)

Yet, he isn’t the one former Gilmore Girls boyfriend who has an surprising opinion.

“Funny enough,” Jared continued, “Milo’s a buddy and he’s Team Dean. Somebody sent me a meme, when he got in his office in his house, he has his Emmy nomination alert letter and on the bottom corner, it’s like ‘Team Dean forever.’ And so I drew my own ‘Team Jess forever’ with markers, like same Milo, samesies but for you.”
