18 05 2009

“I was young, and I felt kind of embarrassed by “Dawson’s Creek” at the time, so I guess I took a stroppy pride in doing something weightier. But now, with some perspective, I realize how much that show meant to a whole generation of kids. I feel quite happy to have been involved with that.”
