Regardless of how lengthy it’s been since Gilmore Women aired, the controversy centering on who Rory ought to have ended up with continues to be a scorching subject. Because it’s streaming with a Netflix subscription and is without doubt one of the most rewatchable exhibits ever, increasingly individuals are both rewatching it or discovering the most effective dramedies for the primary time, with extra contributing their two cents to the discourse about Rory’s love life. This debate principally facilities round Staff Dean, Staff Jess, and Staff Logan, however there is a camp of followers who’re really Staff Tristin. Now, Chad Michael Murray, who performed Tristin, has revealed whether or not his character may have captured Rory’s coronary heart if he had caught round longer.
Earlier than starring on One Tree Hill, Murray recurred within the first season of Gilmore Women as rich Chilton scholar Tristin Dugray. His crush on Rory was evident, however on account of his ego and unhealthy conduct, she principally didn’t give him the time of day until she was pressured to. That didn’t cease him from nonetheless pining after her, although. Whereas she did reciprocate these emotions at one level, issues received difficult. And he was later despatched to army faculty due to his conduct, together with his remaining look on the present being in Season 2, Episode 9.
Contemplating Tristin’s arc was minimize quick, may there have been extra between him and Rory if army faculty had by no means been an choice? Whereas Murray was selling Freakier Friday with co-star Manny Jacinto, the 2 have been requested by Capital Buzz which undertaking followers come as much as them essentially the most about. After Murray talked about A Cinderella Story and One Tree Hill, he was requested if followers ever point out Gilmore Women. He then shared his ideas on the connection, and I so want Tristin had caught round:
They at all times come up and ask me: ‘Was Tristin speculated to be endgame?’ Oh, Tristin would have completely been endgame. Come on! Come on.
Despite the fact that Murray beforehand fired photographs at Tristin, it looks like he is modified his tune. Having his character and Rory be endgame would have positively modified the course of Gilmore Women, and the storylines may have been fascinating.
Rory was slowly warming as much as Tristin, however on account of her emotions for Dean and Paris’ emotions for Chad Michael Murray’s character, nothing may actually come from it. However having the ability to flesh out these issues and see how issues would have turned out even with Dean nonetheless round would have been enjoyable.
Nonetheless, as somebody who has been leaping between Staff Jess and Staff Logan for some time now, I’m undecided how I’d really feel with yet one more major man within the image. Perhaps Staff Rory was the appropriate reply.
Every little thing labored out for the higher, although, as a result of simply 4 years after being concerned with a love triangle on Gilmore Women, Murray discovered himself concerned in a distinct love triangle that went on for a number of seasons on One Tree Hill. It could not have been the identical, however it was clearly as entertaining as ever.
Sadly, followers couldn’t see if that first romance would have labored out even years later, as Murray was not in a position to return for Gilmore Women: A 12 months within the Life. Whether or not one other Gilmore Women revival will ever occur is unknown, however maybe Tristin may nonetheless have an opportunity. That’s, relying on who Rory’s child daddy is.
