Though Emily Gilmore is a proud supporter of her granddaughter Rory Gilmore, actressKelly Bishopstill has her favorites when it comes to her fictional grandchild’s suitors.
When an interviewer off-screen asked, “Are you team Logan (Matt Czuchry), team Jess (Milo Ventimiglia) or team Dean (Jared Padalecki)?” Bishop answered, “Well, I have to admit I’m team Logan. Although, I really love the other two.”

“There was something about Logan,” she continued with a reminiscent smile. “There’s something about his acting that I particularly liked in working with him.”
“He had a very manly quality, where the other guys were like, boys — great boys but Logan was like an old movie star like a man,” she added.
Gilmore Girlsran from 2000 to 2007 for seven seasons on The CW. In the beloved series, Logan, the son of the influential and wealthy newspaper magnate Mitchum Huntzberger, met Rory during her freshman year at Yale. Logan later proposed to Rory in the penultimate episode of the original series, but Rory refused his offer.
