Unforgettable WB Hunks: Where Are They Now? Joshua Jackson, Scott Speedman, Wesley Jonathan and More

Hello, handsome! The WB was a teenager’s dream network before it became The CW in 2006, giving fans a ton of eye candy to look at on all of its hit series.

The WB network was known for featuring popular shows like Summerland, Supernatural, What I Like About You, and Charmed. These shows showcased attractive actors who left a lasting impression on fans. Among them was Joshua Jackson, who portrayed Pacey Witter on Dawson's Creek for six seasons. Jackson acknowledges that fans remain curious about what became of his character after the series concluded. In a July 2021 interview, he shared his thoughts on where Pacey and his onscreen girlfriend Joey Potter (played by Katie Holmes) would be today.

According to the Dr. Death actor, they went to Paris, where he followed her. They had a wonderful European life for a while and eventually returned home with a couple of kids. Speaking to E!'s Daily Pop at the time, he expressed his current focus on marriage and love, hoping for a positive outcome for their story.

Reflecting on his character's relationship with Rory Gilmore, portrayed by Alexis Bledel, the This Is Us star described their situation as "complicated" in September 2021.

“I believe that Jess and Rory provided each other with what they needed at that particular moment, but unfortunately, their relationship didn't work out. They chose different paths, and that's perfectly alright. In fact, it's quite remarkable," Ventimiglia expressed during his appearance on the “I Am All In” podcast. "What I always admired about them is that, regardless of societal expectations, they created their own unique universe, which I find pretty impressive."

He continued, saying, "I believe that Jess and Rory truly discovered their own world together. And even beyond their romantic teenage years, they managed to maintain a genuine friendship as young adults."

Barry Watson, known for his role as Matt Camden on 7th Heaven, revealed that his co-stars Jessica Biel and Beverley Mitchell had a crush on him both on and off set. In an exclusive interview with We in October 2021, Watson shared his experience of noticing Biel and Mitchell hanging around his trailer and pretending not to be there when he would come out.
