That's another one now from my childhood nostalgia gone young too soon ,along with Matthew Perry & Michelle Trachtenberg . I know he's been in loads of things ,but I'll always remember him as Dawson .

I watched 1 or 2 episodes of Don't Trust the B* in Apartment 23.... he was also in that . I might fully rewatch that . Always felt like that TV show had potential.....but they axed it after like 2 seasons.

RIP

I remember him being funny on Don't Trust The B* In Apartment 23.

So so sad. 48 is no age.

Dawson’s Creek was always on in our house (older sister). The theme song immediately transports me back to lazy, carefree Sunday afternoons as a kid (I’m sure it was on telly Sunday tea time). RIP James.

…this is very sad, I knew that he had fought with cancer for a long time…**** cancer..!!!…


…I read that a funding page has been set up for James’ family as his illness/medical care has placed such a financial strain …already the donations have reached more than one million dollars and hopefully that will help with the financial aspect of their lives…it’s sad that the children won’t have their father as they grow older…

So sad, so young.

That's good that will really help at least money wise

already.”
