Kerr Smith on Dawson's Creek, Jack McPhee & I Don't Want to Wait | No More Late Fees: A 90s & 2000s Movie Rewind Podcast

What does it take to preserve the history of a television show that defined a generation?

This week on No More Late Fees, Jackie and Danielle welcome actor and author Kerr Smith for a special conversation about I Don't Want to Wait, his unique hybrid memoir and oral history of Dawson's Creek.

Kerr shares why he chose to tell the story through both his own experiences and the memories of the cast and crew, including conversations with Kevin Williamson, Greg Berlanti, Katie Holmes, and James Van Der Beek before his passing. Together, they explore the importance of preserving these stories and the lasting cultural impact of the beloved teen drama.

They also revisit Kerr's portrayal of Jack McPhee, one of television's groundbreaking LGBTQ characters, including the advice he received from John Wesley Shipp as Jack's coming-out storyline unfolded.

And there's plenty of nostalgia beyond Capeside! Kerr reflects on his work in As the World Turns, Final Destination, The Forsaken alongside Brendan Fehr, and Riverdale, sharing stories from a career that spans decades of television and film.

From the friendships formed behind the scenes to the importance of documenting memories before they're lost, this conversation celebrates the people, performances, and personal histories that made Dawson's Creek unforgettable.

Join Jackie and Danielle for a heartfelt trip down memory lane with Kerr Smith.
