Learning something new each day!! Not only do we have Milo Ventimiglia as a key star in Heroes, playing Peter Petrelli, and Gilmore Girls guest star Cristine Rose as his mother Angela Petrelli, but Alan Blumenfeld also guest starred in both shows !

Alan Blumenfeld, who guest starred as the Rabbi David Barans on Gilmore Girls, plays Maury Parkman on Heroes. Maury is one of the “first generation” heroes, or villains as you may put it, with the power of telepathy that has evolved to an ability to trap people in their own fantasies and to project a vision into other people’s minds. His son, Matt Parkman (Greg Grunberg) is also a telepath.

Here’s a fun scene with Alan Blumenfeld as the Rabbi on Gilmore Girls, debating with Taylor:
