Kirk Gleason (Sean Gunn) might be one of the more underappreciated residents of Stars Hollow, but here at Front Row Chat, we think it’s time to give the guy his time in the spotlight! From internet installer to engagement ring salesman, this (over)enthusiastic man has been there for our core characters whether they think they need him or not. Below you’ll find our picks for Best Kirk Jobs, but don’t forget to share yours in the comments or tweet them to us @FrontRowChat!
It’s a two for one for you guys today! Because there’s no computer glitch worse than human error… and, well… I forgot to post yesterday. You’ll forgive me right?
Nov 6- Top 5 Kirk Jobs
Cassie- Pedicab driver (S4E17)
I always giggle thinking about this scene. Not only does Kirk struggle through the entire pedicab ride, but he also blames Lorelai and Rory for being too heavy (probably the only time anyone has ever accused either of them of that). Oh Kirk, don’t you know you should never say anything to a woman about her weight?
Aubrey- Spy for Taylor (S3,E3)
I feel like this was Kirk’s steadiest job throughout the series, but this was the episode it was explicit. Honestly though, bless Kirk for doing all the ridiculous jobs no one else would have ever taken on. He’s my vote for Stars Hollow MVP.
Hannah- Kirk as a giant Wiener (S5E6)
It doesn’t get much better than this. Also I think this shows how that Kirk will do whatever someone in the town needs done. And he’s not ashamed of anything.
Lisa- Kirk as a swan delivery man (S1E3)
Couldn’t help but mention this moment. When he delivers the swans and gets freaked out by them just made me laugh out loud and was hoping I would see more of this character. Little did I know I would be seeing more of him and I always loved every job he had.
Sairah- Kirk as a Filmmaker (S2E19)
Kirk break dancing, enough said.
We’ve got more goodness headed your way, so stay tuned!
