Who do you consider ended up being more sucessful: James Van Der Beek or Joshua Jackson?

I never really liked Dawson's Creek. I sometimes used to channel surf, and sometimes I would watch it just because I thought Joshua Jackson was the coolest. I've started to watch it more now on reruns.
In my opinion, he should've been the star of the show.
I haven't heard much from either one lately.

Which one of the two had a better run?

I agree Joshua Jackson should have been the star of the show - 'Joshua's Creek' lol. i think he's the better actor and has had a better run with his career after Dawon's Creek ended.

Both Joshua and James have featured in other tv shows since but otherwise neither has been able to maintain the same level of success.

But between the two i think Joshua Jackson has ended up being more successful. In terms of awards Joshua has had 6 wins and 6 nominations (the most recent in 2005 when he won Best Actor for his role in the movie Aurora Borealis )while James has only had 3 wins and 1 nomination (the last being in 2001 for his cameo role in Scary Movie so he's been pretty quiet since..)

So the final verdict: Joshua Jackson has had the better run.
