Question: Will Jared Padelecki ever return to Gilmore Girls as Dean? I know that he has his new show, Supernatural, but on Gilmore Girls he and Rory were destined for each other.
Answer: Once upon a time I might have agreed with you, but Rory has clearly moved on, and so, in a different way, has Dean. The new series will keep Padelecki off Gilmore Girls for the foreseeable future. If it flops, though, you never know. After all, Jess is coming back for at least one episode, and I thought/hoped he'd moved on as well. (Don't look for Milo Ventimiglia to set up shop with the Gilmores for long. He, too, has a new mid-season show, also on WB. ...

Since the WB's airing fresh episodes of Gilmore Girls again, fans need to know: What's next for Lorelai and Rory's love lives? Here, TV Guide Online serves up exclusive dish on their big romantic developments leading up to Season 4's big finale on May 18. "Our season finale will be pretty big for both of our girls," says GG creator Amy Sherman-Palladino. "Big changes are happening. We're shooting it now, and it's really satisfying. We'll leave you in cliff-hanger mode for next year."
