Dawson Gets A Job!

Filed under: TV News

wenn5027800.jpg

Once or twice a year, he'll get a job. And that's a good thing!

The former Dawson Leery, James Van Der Beek, is making a little appearance on a CBS sitcom.

Van Der Beek is going to guest star on How I Met Your Mother's upcoming episode "Robin Sparkles."

Last year he played a part in Ugly Betty.

Somehow we doubt he'll give the show the same ratings boost that the pop star who was on recently did!

      He was on Criminal Minds last year too. Actually played a serial killer…well.
      I think he's a good actor and should get more work.

      Perez you will quickly lose fans and site visitors (and cash, basically) if you think you can get away with ignoring the goings-on of britney spears! Pay up and move on!

      Re: Ania

      If we're going to start putting people on HIMYM in order of increasing worthlessness as a person, we're going to need to hit up Phoebe Price, Micheal Moore, Fran Drescher, Mariah Carey, a handful of guidos and at least a Hilton or two before we get anywhere NEAR any of the Hills girls.

      How much would I love Dawson's Creek: The Movie? That would be so sweet. Somehow I doubt Katie would be able to breakaway though. Still… I would have watched that. I bet others would have as well.

      LASURFPUNK IS REPORTING ON HIS SITE–

      IDIOT JAY LENO –remember darlings: he went back to work before the writers strike was settled —- WHICH MAKES HIM A SCUMMY SCAB!!!!!!!!!!—has finally apologized for badgering poor Ryan Phillippe about his "gayest look."
      Ryan used to play a gay guy on the soap "One Life To Live," in his early days. The UNFUNNY comic wanted him to pretend one of the cameras was his gay male lover hence give the camera your "gayest look." THE SCAB kept asking him and badgering. THE SCAB continued like it was a funny bit making Ryan uncomfortable.
      IDIOT LENO was the only one who thought the comment was funny. GLAAD stepped in and stated: "We are proud of Ryan for refusing to participate in Leno's thoughtless attempt at humor," said GLAAD President Neil G. Giuliano. "Under the guise of comedy, the talk-show host is demonstrating a lack of respect for the gay community and insensitivity to both his co-workers and the audience, to whom he owes an apology."

      WHAT A STUPID, IDIOT SCAB. WE ABSOLUTELY HATE HIM AND WILL NEVER WATCH HIS SHOW. WE STOPPED WATCHING THE SHOW AFTER HE WENT BACK TO WORK WHILE THE STRIKE WAS STILL GOING ON!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Stop crying…if perezo whats to boycott…then let him do so.
      whatever…life goes on.
      if britney can live life without hearing every lil detail of her fan's lives…then im sure we can live life without her just a lil bit longer.

      ANYWAYS…back on TOPIC…its good that he's found work.
      he's a great actor, he should most deff start staring in more movies.

      James Van Der Beek is the most talented actor who never made it to the marquee. James could've been the next Brad Pitt but dropped the ball. So sad.

      It's sad that both you and Madonna support someone that has done things that actually hurt the gay community. Instead of caring about what the actual candidate has done, you're so biased that you have to dig to find out what people they know say. Hillary has run anti-gay ads. Hillary supports Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Barack knows a homophobe, but he's the one that is harmful to gays? Good job, Perez.
