Fans of "Gilmore Girls" finally got what they were asking for in the show's recent revival. Alexis Bledel's Rory actually reconnected with the men of her lives, which meant a sweet but infuriatingly brief reunion with Jared Padalecki's Dean.
But is it possible that Jared Padalecki was supposed to play a larger role in the "Gilmore Girls" revival? Some believe that Padalecki's reunion with Alexis Bledel got cut short due to the actor's busy schedule with "Supernatural" Season 12. But does this mean that Rory and Dean were supposed to have a longer reunion?
Was Jared Padalecki's 'Gilmore Girls' Revival Appearance Shortened Due To 'Supernatural' Season 12?
People were definitely hoping that Rory and Dean would reconnect and offer the fans some closure in the "Gilmore Girls" revival. Although Jared Padalecki and Alexis Bledel finally reunited in (of all places) the supermarket, some felt that their reunion could have been a lot lengthier if "Supernatural" Season 12 didn't get in the way.
There are speculations that Jared Padalecki was initially supposed to appear in several scenes in the "Gilmore Girls" revival. However, the actor couldn't commit to a longer appearance because he was too busy working on "Supernatural" Season 12, where he plays Sam Winchester. Nevertheless, Padalecki's reunion with Alexis Bledel turned out to be very satisfying for most fans while some say it was sweet and sad.
