CCCMyst: Talk City Presents in association with iXL Live, welcomes you to tonight’s Feature Presentation, and now without further ado, welcome Kerr Smith. Kerr, welcome to Talk City!

Kerr Smith: Thank You!

Mysterygirl: Kerr, welcome to Talk City! Tell us about your role in the show, “Dawson's Creek!”

Kerr Smith: It's a new character this season. He's been brought on to the show with his fraternal twin sister. He and his sister Andy are going to stir things up a little bit this year!

Tori: How did you land the role on “Dawson's Creek”?

Kerr Smith: I had just moved out to LA about two months ago, and I met with the head casting director over at Warner Brothers and she and I really hit it off. I went through about two dozen auditions, and then got the part!

Katieh Tx 98: What is it like coming into a cast that has already worked together for a whole season?

Kerr Smith: I'm used to it, I've always joined a show after the first season. It's easy here because the entire cast is extremely nice. We all hang out when not working, and it's a really good time!

Rtang84: Hi. My sister is going to be in “Dawson's Creek,” is there anything that she should know? As coming on the set of this great show?

Kerr Smith: Call me!

Wimpy: Will there be other additions to “Dawson Creek” in the near future?

Kerr Smith: I'm sure there will be some additions to the cast. To be honest, I wouldn't really know, but they always add new characters for recurring roles throughout the season.

Enigma: Kerr, who or what gives you inspiration?

Kerr Smith: My father! I get inspired by people who figure out what it is in life that they want to do, and work 110 percent to achieve those goals.

Jcbookworm: What is your character like and how does he fit in with the rest of the cast?

Kerr Smith: Jack McFee is an introvert. He kind of keeps to himself, he's not really quiet but doesn't really interact . He has a lot of family problems in his history, which will be coming out later in the season. There will be some interesting things happening with Jack, the audience will find out that he's not what he seems to be. As far as a love interest, he will definitely get together with one of the girls on the show, I'm not going to say which , but he will definitely stir things up this season.
