James Van Der Beek Joins his Dawson's Creek...

You may know them as Dawson, Pacey and Jack or the men of Dawson's Creek, but these days, all three of them are playing new roles on network TV.

James Van Der Beek, who played Dawson, is about to get a little naughty when he joins the cast of the new NBC hospital drama Mercy. James will be playing Dr. Liam West, the womanizing head of the ICU unit. Sounds like a fun new role for him.

Over on The CW, Kerr Smith (Jack on Dawson's) is the third part of a love triangle in the new dramedy Life Unexpected. In the series, a teenage girl seeks out her birth parents and the two of them decide to help raise her after all. Only trouble is the mom is engaged to marry Kerr's character not the girl's dad, so that's making things very sticky.

If you were a Pacey fan, look no further than Fringe on Fox every Thursday night. Joshua Jackson is in his second season as Peter Bishop, son of a brilliant but slightly mad scientist. He and his dad are in it to help the FBI solve the freakiest cases and little does Peter know, but he's a freaky case himself!

Want to go one more round? Check out the credits of The CW's The Vampire Diaries and you'll see that it was created by the same man who created Dawson's Creek - Kevin Williamson.

Sounds like the guys from The Creek are doin' alright.
