I love that Peter actually gets along really well with Janie's fiance! It's often such a cliche, when we're meant to root for the ex, to bring in the new guy and have him be an asshole so the audience hates him. I LOVE that van der Beek's character is a genuinely nice guy and he and Peter actually become friends. I thought they were great together, and the fiance was entertaining even by himself without Peter. That's one of the main reasons I'm not into Peter/Janie (aside from the obvious Peter should be with Jared reason)--there's no way to do it without either hurting her fiance and I like him much too much for that, or turning him into a bad guy which would be a shitty rom-com move that's been done a million times. I'd love to see more of Peter and van der Beek hanging out! And Jared along for the ride, half-exasperated but half-charmed. Idk if VDB is someone they can get back as a recurring guest star, but I think it would be fun.

I agree! I enjoyed him on the show - I was surprised. I expected him to come and try to be perfect and outdo Peter, but he was quite the opposite. And I think that's why Peter liked him as well - he was an average guy, making mistakes and dealing with it the best he could. I could totally see them hanging out.

I'd love for VDB to come back. They've written these lovely minor characters, no reason not to keep using them.

Yes! They did so nicely. I love that Janie GENUINELY SEEMED TO LOVE HIM. Which is something programmes often just don't bother writing. I really really hope they're married by season 2. I love how she believed him that he hadn't slept with a prostitute, and she was totally willing to work through their problems, and, I don't know, they just seemed really nice together. And they take so many opportunities when they could make Janie boring and bitchy and just avoid them. Also, they remembered that Peter is really nice as well, so made him be able to see that Dawson was nice. So he didn't have to be childish or dull. I LOVE FRANKLIN AND BASH SO MUCH.

I did like VDB way more than I expected to as well, and Jared being all jealous of Peter having another friend was many kinds of lovely.
