Colin McRea is a recurring character on Gilmore Girls, portrayed by Alan Loayza.
Story[]
Colin lived in Zuckerberg, Switzerland where he attended boarding school from 7th-12th grade. Prompted by Marty whether Colin missed his family, he describes a life of a constant rotation of new mothers, indicating his father had many relationships, his own mother wasn't around and that Colin spent a lot of time alone or with Logan and Finn. This could explain his cold demeanor and behaviour towards people. Colin is one of Logan Huntzberger's best friends at Yale, and is a member of the Life and Death Brigade, the Yale secret society. Logan, Finn, and Colin often go on trips, perform stunts and pranks, and party together. He's is usually mean to those that don't have the kind of money his family does[1][2]. While his character does not have a huge role in terms of plot, he is frequently seen as one of Logan's sidekicks during his time at Yale at important moments in the plot of Logan's life or Rory and Logan's relationship.
