Here's who Scott Patterson would want to play on 'Gilmore Girls' if he wasn't Luke

There is no Stars Hollow without Luke.

However, Scott Patterson, 67, revealed that if he didn’t play the plaid-wearing diner owner in “Gilmore Girls,” there was another character he had his eye on portraying.

“If I had a chance to play any other character on that show, it would’ve been Kirk, talk about fun. I wanna be a hot dog for a day. Why not?” the actor teased. 7

Kirk, portrayed by Sean Gunn, took on odd jobs around the quaint town, one time dressing as a giant hot dog, working at the beauty shop, and being a handy man.

The drama, which ran for seven seasons from 2000 to 2007, followed Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham), a single mom who lived in Stars Hollow, Connecticut, with her daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel).

Patterson played Graham’s love interest on the WB series.
