Taylor Doose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Taylor Doose is a fictional character on the television series Gilmore Girls, played by Michael Winters.
Taylor Doose is the Town Selectman for the town of Stars Hollow, and holds a number of other positions in town government and public organizations. He is largely responsible for organizing Stars Hollow's many events and festivals. He is also the owner of Doose's Market, where he employed Dean Forester for the first three seasons, and Taylor's Old Fashioned Soda Shoppe.
As Stars Hollow's most powerful citizen, Taylor often uses his positions in a rather self-serving manner. He is a stickler for making sure town rules and statutes are followed to the letter. Often this brings him in conflict with other members of the community, most often Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore. He also is in charge of the frequent town meetings, which he often uses as a forum to air his personal grievances.
During the fifth season, Taylor was briefly voted out of the Town Selectman office after Jackson Melville ran against him for the office. However, Jackson realized he did not want the job, and resigned.
