The recent change of street names in Stars Hollow doesn't seem to be affecting the ability of past residents and visitors to find the place, at least not during November sweeps.

"Gilmore Girls" will welcome back a couple of familiar faces, plus a top-secret new one, during sweeps. The WB series will also take strides toward mending the season-long rift between mother Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel).

Milo Ventimiglia is set to reprise his role as Rory's ex-boyfriend Jess on Tuesday, Nov. 8. He comes back to town and tells Rory about an "impressive accomplishment" that makes her rethink her current Yale-dropout, guesthouse-living situation.

Ventimiglia, last seen in the there-and-gone teen flick "Dirty Deeds," stars in The WB's midseason series "The Bedford Diaries." He also had a recurring part on NBC's "American Dreams" last season.

Two weeks after that, David Sutcliffe will make an appearance as Rory's dad, Christopher. He'll be part of a Thanksgiving episode in which Rory gets some unsettling news about her current beau, Logan (Matt Czuchry).

In between, on Nov. 15, someone from Luke's (Scott Patterson) past will turn up in town, throwing a big wrench into his relationship with Lorelai. Speculation has been that Lorelai maybe isn't the only single parent in their relationship, but the network isn't divulging any further details.
