A Never-Before-Seen Gilmore Girls Photograph

________________________________________________________________________________________________



 
Gilmore Girlaholics will recognize 
most of this image as it appeared
in an episode entitled
 
But Lorelai's date
—being greeted at the door—
gets a backstage view
of the image
 
"The most handsome man"
Lorelai had ever dated
was also the most boring
and he was blessed with
an elephantine ego
 
This Season Three episode 
originally aired in 2002
 
Lorelai's date
is portrayed by Jon Hamm
who is also seen observing
the scene
 
According to
the actor was totally disgusted
with his portrayal as
"the handsome guy"

I need to play a character
who is all mystery and mastery
like a Mafia DON
or a one-legged
window DRAPER.
 
I feel like such a wienie
always getting cast as
"the handsome guy"
but I don't want to be
a whiner
because it pays the bills
:::

The next thing you know
—between the wienie
and the whiner—
contacts the Hamm
named Jon
and Matthew says

I want to cast you
as a most brilliant and 
villainous advertising man

That's a mad idea,
replies Jon

Terrific,
exclaims Matthew,
We'll call it 
 •••
 
Mad Men 
premiered on
 
The rest is history

    Here is where your playmate, Irony,
    is definitely wearing high heel sneakers:
    Alexis Bledel had as much screen time on MAD MEN
    as Jon Hamm had on GILMORE GIRLS.

    On her Mad Men episode, the 2nd-in-command Gilmore Girl
    meets the 2nd-in-command "brilliant and diabolical" character,
    Pete Campbell.
    In real life...Alexis Bledel and Vincent Kartheiser got married
    and are together to this day.
