Jared Padalecki's character, Dean Forester, played a significant role in Rory Gilmore's story on the beloved show Gilmore Girls. Fans were disappointed when Dean didn't appear in the last two seasons, and the debate about Rory's best boyfriend still continues. However, Padalecki's success in another CW project, Supernatural, only solidified the audience's love for him. Dean Forester was introduced in the pilot episode of Gilmore Girls and quickly became a central figure in Rory's life.
