Now that Fox’s medical drama The Resident has hit Netflix, Matt Czuchry’s performance as Dr. Conrad Hawkins is back in the spotlight — but Gilmore Girls fans will always remember him as Logan Huntzberger. He portrayed Rory’s (Alexis Bledel) love interest Logan in Amy Sherman Palladino’s dramedy, which premiered on The WB in 2000 and ended its run on The CW in 2007. Logan first crossed paths with Rory at Yale in the Season 5 episode “Written in the Stars,” and immediately made a poor impression as he spoke patronizingly to her friend, repeatedly forgot her name, and just generally came off as an insufferable rich kid. However, even if you were #TeamJess, it was still difficult to not be at least a little charmed by Logan.

Gilmore Girls fans spent four very long seasons watching Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore flirt without admitting they had feelings for each other. Once they did, they embarked on a relationship that should have gone smoothly, except it didn’t. There were many twists and turns in their love story. There were so many turns that we wonder if their love was actually “written in the stars,” as one episode title suggested. As it turns out, according to their zodiac signs, Luke and Lorelai were compatible, with one caveat.
Luke Danes revealed his zodiac sign in a season 5 episode of ‘Gilmore Girls’
While Gilmore Girls fans never learn Luke’s actual birthday, they are given information about his zodiac sign. In the season 5 episode, “Written in the Stars,” Luke reveals that he is a Scorpio by sharing a horoscope that Lorelai had doodled eight long years earlier to win favor...

The only official Gilmore Girls Valentine’s Day episode is almost universally hated by fans. The season 6 episode just doesn’t have what we’d expect from an episode all about love, especially when the two main characters, Rory and Lorelai Gilmore, are both in serious, long-term relationships. While these episodes aren’t centered around Valentine’s Day, we think they are suitable stand-ins for the low-rated “A Vineyard Valentine.”
Rory and Lorelai Gilmore | Warner Bros./Delivered by Online USA ‘Raincoats and Recipes’ feels like the ultimate ‘Gilmore Girls’ Valentine’s Day episode
A list of Gilmore Girls episodes to watch on Valentine’s Day would feel incomplete without mentioning the season 4 episode, “Raincoats and Recipes.” The season 4 episode is among the most romantic and dramatic.
In the episode, Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore begin their romantic relationship on the Dragonfly Inn’s porch after arguing. They seal it with an epic kiss.
