Flannel stats:

Luke Danes wore 90 different flannels in the 153 episodes of Gilmore Girls he appeared in.
Luke Danes is Stars Hollow's local diner owner. In all 7 seasons of 'Gilmore Girls' and in the reboot 'Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life', Luke was seen running his diner, all the while interacting with the town's quirky characters, secretly pining for Lorelai and being a father figure to Lorelai's daughter Rory. Uncle to Jess Mariano, he took in the troubled teen and tried to get him back on track. Something that seemed to have worked. Luke found out he also had a daughter, straining his relationship with Lorelai, which resulted in them breaking up. But in the end, they all made it and Luke is now a happily married man.

57 flannels were worn at least twice.

The one flannel worn most often, was worn in the first 7 seasons.

Episode '4.21 - Luke Can See Her Face' and 'Summer' had the most flannels: 6.

“Red meat can kill you. Enjoy.”

Although not really qualifying as a flannel shirt, it's still a good one worn in season 1.

Flannels per episode

Thanks for visiting!

Back in July of 2007, right after the show ended, I posted the first version of The Ultimate Flannel Project on LiveJournal and the Gilmore Girls board at FanForum. It can still be found there. But back then, HD screencaps were impossible to find (if they even existed), so with Gilmore Girls being on Netflix and the announcement of the revival, I decided it was a good time for freshening up the original project.

And this is the result!

I added the flannels from A Year in the Life and I hope there will be more to add in the future. Please let me know what you think. Any feedback is welcome.
