"Guess what it stands for"
—T.J.'s intro to people[src]

T.J. is a recurring character on Gilmore Girls. He is portrayed by Michael DeLuise.

Character[]

Luke Danes' buffoonish brother-in-law, and the husband of Liz Danes. His real name is Gary. He is a capable carpenter[1], but is inept as a contractor when Lorelai Gilmore remodels her house[2]. Lorelai lets him think he is the acting contractor, while in reality she has another contractor handling the details. He is a generally likeable character, with a heavy New York accent.
