\n\tOn the 25-year anniversary year<\/a> of Gilmore Girls<\/a>, two of Rory\u2019s (Alexis Bledel<\/a>) former beaus have weighed in on the perennial debate among factions of fans: Team Dean, Team Jess or Team Logan. <\/p>\n

\n\tJared Padalecki<\/a> \u2014 who portrays Dean Forester, Rory\u2019s first boyfriend notable for their puppy love relationship and, in later seasons, marital infidelity \u2014 and Matt Czuchry<\/a> \u2014 a fellow Yale classmate who plays Rory\u2019s most serious partner and failed fianc\u00e9 \u2014 opened up about their thoughts during a reunion for People\u2018s Sexiest Man Alive issue<\/a>, under the banner \u201cHotties from the Aughties.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMost shockingly, Padalecki, Jess\u2019s most fervent on-screen hater, told the outlet, noting the irony, \u201cI\u2019m team Jess, funny enough. Just knowing the show and having some idea of where Rory was in her life. They all were flawed, let\u2019s be clear. Well, I\u2019ll say Dean was flawed. They all had their issues, but today I\u2019m team Jess.\u201d (In a similar twist, Milo Ventimiglia<\/a> \u2014\u00a0known for his portrayal of OG bad-boy Jess Mariano \u2014 is a loyal Dean supporter<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile, in an answer that very much channels Logan Huntzberger\u2019s confident spirit, Czuchry said, \u201cIt\u2019s kind of changed for me over the course of time. I think right now, because we had that part on Netflix that went back, and we had that whole aspect too, which was great, it was so much fun \u2014 but I think if he changes his life, then I could see Logan coming back and being with Rory. He would be in a completely different place in his life.\u201d (The Friday Night Lights alum is referencing Netflix\u2019s four-part revival A Year in the Life, in which Rory and Logan, though partnered and engaged, respectively, engage in a no-strings-attached affair.)<\/p>\n

\n\tCzuchry\u2019s response mirrors that of the elder Gilmore girl, played by Kelly Bishop, who revealed last fall that she is decidedly Team Logan<\/a>: \u201cThere is something about Logan. There\u2019s something about his acting that I particularly liked in working with him, is 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.\u201d<\/p>\n
