  • The crazy quirky Kirk

    Is it just me or who else loves the crazy Kirk with all his funny quirks that he has.  I love how he can make the stupidest thing sooo much more complicated, like when he went out on his first date with Lulu and he wouldn't stop obsessing about how she was still here and why she was still hereMore because she should have left by now.  I thought that that was funny and crazy all at the same time.

    Awesome actor! hide show

    I know him mostly for his role as "Kirk" on Gilmore Girls. He was so perfect for the role. I cannot imagine anyone that would pull off his colorful character. I really hope that we see him as a regular in another series. He's so much better than commercials and cheesy nickelodeon tv shows. I miss seeing Sean Gunn on Gilmore Girls with his goofy story lines and weirdness. His role in True Jackson V P was pretty funny though. And kind of like Kirk. I can see Kirk using root beer for windshield wiper fluid- well, if he had a car!

    Sean Gunn. Kirk. Hilarious. hide show

    He is one of the best actors of all time! His character (Kirk) was my favorite in like every season! They could not find a better Kirk than Sean Gunn. In the shows he is sooooooooo funny! His character is really odd which makes him really funny. Some of my favorite episodes are the ones he is super funny in! I would live in Stars Hollow just to be by him (only if he's my neighbor!) I give him two thumbs up! I loved the film he made (in the show) called "Kirk's Film". It was AWESOME! He is by far the best actor on Gilmore Girls!

    plays one of the most funnist person of all time hide show

    He does a great jop as an actor. Hes in one of my all time fav programs gilmore girls and has done an excellent job playing Kirk who is very eccentric.. Yet he doesn't make him too eccentric, he plays the part perfectly... I really admire this guy for doing that! he's playing an excellent character on the screen by been the weird Kirk. He's not exeggarating his character which is a good. I would love to see him in a few more movies playing a funny but different sort of character that would be grate because ever since gilmore girls has fineshed iv missed watching him.

    "Go on Taylor [Doose], so, it's sucking out the blood [waves fingers in imagination] and then -- and then what?" hide show

    There is no doubt Gunn's immaculate acting skills, and even more proceeded by his sharp appearance and versatile attitude -- all qualities accessable by formidable actors, or excessively so. Although he does not appear in many shows -- shame -- his presence in any is easily palpable by his ineffable talent. In Gilmore Girls, he acts as an unprecedented town idiot of Stars Hollow, living in a world that passed him in his childhood. His happy-go-lucky disposition is natural in the town, and peers in his many quirks -- i.e. his famous night terrors: "so naturally I threw the bomb away -- [what bomb?] -- well naturally the pillow" "and the ninjas kept coming..." anything in the wake of his reality crushes his imagination unleashing his fear. His acting is so believable, and so superb; I look forward to future shows he will star in. until then, two thumbs up -- and if I could my fingers, but then my approval would be in vain.

    i think kirk from gilmore girls is adorable, annoying and handsome. id give him a chance! hide show

    kirk may totally bother people on the show, he may tend to get his nose in others business but he's a willingly nice guy. i always thought he was taylor's son but he's not although he should be because they are very similar. who knows but if i knew him and werent engaged i would give him a chance to show me who he really is and i bet he has a lot to offer and a lot of things that need some changing. overall he's a nice guy and what makes him great is his consistancy. mmm yeah he's cute!
