James van der Beek died this week of bowel cancer; he was only a couple of years older than I am. I guess I’m at that point of my life where unexpectedly-early celebrity deaths might start being “around my age”.
I’m neither young nor angsty enough to enjoy a re-watch of Dawson’s Creek, but I especially loved him in Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 so maybe I’ll re-watch that.
