Joshua Jackson Owes His Career To Jon Stewart

[@mooshe4017]

My life long crush on Joshua Jackson is still going strong!

[@mismay360]

Mooshe saaame.

[@pinar6169]

Yeah mee too

[@MrAllysonn]

Yeah. I know where you from. Now he's married and will become a father in few month.

[@carveylover]

Same. I knew when I saw him in Mighty Ducks that I would never stop crushing on him.

[@belllabean]

mm hmmm

[@MADEbySOUL]

The way he retells this story has such sincerity and happiness to witness the events.

[@jshariff786]

He's a charismatic and engaging guest, and Colbert sat back and gave him the space to tell his story. A rare good interview on late night?

[@belllabean]

somehow josh jackson just creates that with a lot of those hosts. super funny shit or good storytelling, or just good interviews. i have seen it many times. credit to him, i reckon

[@PjPerez]

Joshua Jackson seems like a really good dude. Then again, he IS Canadian.

[@AGirlCalledLevi]

It's really nice to see Josh this happy. For a while there he seemed like maybe he was going through some stuff. Nice to hear your laugh, buddy.

[@CIM84]

Jamie M aww, this is a nice comment

[@brittabarnes5151]

Jamie M Aww I agree. I'm wondering if the break up did him good. Sometimes leaving a long term relationship sad as it is can also be very freeing.

[@LFortune]

I just watched an interview with his wife the extraordinary beauty Jody Turner Smith on Seth Meyers. That these two amazing people found each other is profoundly gratifying.

[@cindym5896]

Awe miss Joshua Jackson! He is a cutie n has great energy here!

[@jeeither]

Man, I crushed on Joshua Jackson through my childhood so hard. Even through the frosted tips he had in Urban Legend. I had no idea he was only 9 years older than me. Hey daddy, gimme a call.

[@jeeither]

31 now actually.

[@jeeither]

wow, you're a square.

[@jeeither]

It's funny you say that because my mother is 62 so my vocabulary is influenced by people born in the 50's.

[@jeeither]

I guess it depends on the family. I was always around older people when I was young, so I picked up on some of their vocab.

[@jeeither]

uh. I suppose I'm content. Just missing Joshua Jackson.

[@TatendaZiyambi]

I miss hearing *Previously on Fringe....* every Thursday 😭

[@elif.]

😭 me too

[@Mzdiva924]

Now you can hear “Previously on Little Fires Everywhere”

[@susu_m]

Looooved fringe 😫

[@pamwatt1013]

He's still a true Canadian boy. Got to love Joshua!

[@KThyme]

I never watched Dawson's Creek, but everything Joshua Jackson has done since that I've stumbled across he has been amazing in. Just a great actor. Put him in cool movies, please!

[@Glitch_is-MYPOOKIE]

Matt Katch watch him in Dawsons creek! He is amazing. That show is amazing

[@stormwatcher59]

Matt - Did you see him on YEARS of LIVING DANGEROUSLY ~ Collapse Of The Oceans? These clips are worth the watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4etc5-qoqaZp68 kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4u7c5SthqyChNU kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3aseJprq9Z2rNk

[@bettymays6149]

He’s awesome in Dawson’s Creek. He and Katie were the reason I kept watching. I, actually, liked all the actors.

[@gokinsmen]

In other words, Jon Stewart is the real Minnesota Miracle Man.

[@s.araujon.4136]

Still the biggest crush on him! Not only talented but also very eloquent 💖

[@My-thaiOrg]

I always rooted for Pacey! Glad he turned out to be cool when getting older :D

[@e.7619]

Can't believe he learnt sign language so quickly!! Man, the guy is talented ! And cute. And Canadian. Well done Josh!

[@Rowan_G_Link]

oh my gosh! I just love the excited expressive post first performance energy that is rolling off of Joshua Jackson! It infectious and make me want to go back in time to old high school plays and relive that same energy again. :) Great interview!

[@mori1bund]

Pacey Witter - Peter Bishop He played two of my tv heroes while growing up. ^^

[@FacebookQueen]

Colt Lockhart 😍

[@Gezarie07]

Such a charismatic actor. I wish I could have seen this play

[@bellemitchell7071]

I can't like this video enough! What a beautifully told story. Wish I could see the show. ❤️

[@scobiewhitebeans8250]

He's 39?! Whatta baby face!

[@annatedeschi3162]

He's just so calm and beautiful and has charm and his eyes, in particular when he smiles... Yes I'm in love with him ahahah

[@ultraleen]

“How old are you?” “I’m 39” “No not now. In the story” 😂😂😂

[@gulyaswift1503]

Charming

[@realMors]

Joshua Jackson! One of the "Mighty Ducks"!

[@pinar6169]

Ooh god he is never ever gettin older ! Such a handsome man.

[@o0Theresa0o]

I thought this was a really old clip because it's Joshua Jackson... and then I realized it was literally just uploaded. I didn't know he was still doing stuff. Still super hot, too.

[@moonstruck15]

Fringe, The Affair

Yes, I miss Fringe 😭

[@MasterKynar]

Omg that was the best fox show ever ! I miss Walter😭

[@nula14]

It's always nice to see Joshua Jackson. And what a wonderful role for him on Broadway! He seems very nervous though. He's usually a lot more relaxed.

[@queensquish]

nula1998 yeah I think for some reason Colbert had him on edge

[@brittabarnes5151]

Joshua Jackson ❤️

[@FacebookQueen]

I love listening to him ❤️

[@Rye-Ann]

He’s still a babe!

[@lockofire25]

Team Pacey!

[@ellobo4290]

Diane Kruger lost out

She got him for 10 years. So no.

I loovvvvvveee Joshua Jackson

[@Boomer19771]

is it just me or does he look like a young George Clooney?

[@scoobertmcruppert2915]

Boomer19771 Yeah, almost as much as Jim Acosta from CNN...but Acosta looks more like him I think.

[@heyheytaytay]

bwhahahahahaha. you can't be serious.

[@possumpancakes1007]

kind of sounds like him too

[@Ellietalk81]

YES!!! I’ve been saying that for years!!!!!

[@Serai3]

It's just you.

[@SamanthaJackson]

Josh is an AMAZING actor

[@samluciano658]

The Mighty Duck is back!!

[@DanielGonzalez-vo5ni]

I'm kinda appalled as a San Jose native that they tricked me into liking the ducks although I liked the cartoon alien ducks the most but they never should have got rid of the old logo the new one sucks so bad go Sharks!

[@TheKappybook]

Great story about his co-star in the Broadway show

[@hamolina]

Kathy Kilpatrick Except he got it wrong. She's actually been acting for many years. She's super talented and this is her opportunity to make a household name for herself. She is a mother and teaches to pay the bills, but she's been an actor for many years.

[@Glitch_is-MYPOOKIE]

Awwwe Pacey!! 💖 He got old... But so did the rest of us ha! He's still got it! 🔥

[@anrina]

He's the cutest! I really enjoyed their performances, and he's not kidding - Lauren Ridloff is wonderful. Deaf actors continue to amaze me, they are so expressive and emotive. And Joshua has his work cut off for him because he "speaks" for both of them during the play. Very impressive stuff. Go watch their BUILD series interview about their journey with the show and the show itself, so enlightening. (P.S. Peter Bishop

[@feebeedoc78]

He seems just like Pacey in real life.

[@destinychild4659]

He really does. I have noticed that in his interviews. So many similarities.

[@zeusmasterson4117]

Random thoughts: Dawson’s Creek had the right ending. Josh is so cute; Pacey was a smart pick.

[@CloisForever29]

So handsome 😍

[@Shani2sweet]

Love you Joshua!! 🤗🤗🤗

I just love Joshua *swoon*

Watching Jon *IS* 'something useful.

[@suhugo9546]

Love his energy

[@ernestomarcos0103]

Gotta love Pacey Witter.

[@sugarhighmegaming5008]

I’ve been taking sign language in college for 4 years (actually taking my last class now) and he is signing really well. It’s really interesting to see the different “accents” different signers can have

[@ch3burashka]

Haven't seen him in forever. Fringe was dope.

[@CloisForever29]

ch3burashka you need to watch him in The Affair

[@hollyisaleech2606]

[@kassard1]

It's weird seeing my internal monologue since my last birthday which okay granted was only 13 days ago but I finally got to a point where I could ignore it and someone goes and writes in on the first recent SC video I "liked" and it's the top foremost comment. That's worse than an earworm. 😭😂

Impressive how subtly they cut away from his hands when he swore in sign. A+ censorship.

[@tbonethugg]

Yeahh!!! Manitoba!!!!!!

[@hamolina]

Lauren Ridloff has been acting for years. She's very talented and this is a big break for her.

[@cotaysmi]

Pacey!! Still a BABE

[@kathyspann-hampton9533]

He can star as a young George Clooney, especially in profile.

[@RedXGurt20XX]

If X-files can come back fringe can to

[@paiwanhan]

so... you can sign the f word on TV then?

[@GraeHall]

Hilarious, smart, fast, charming, sincerely praises his costar rather than dwelling excessively on himself, then ends on a Yo Momma joke. What's his national anthem again? The first two words of that.

[@rebellibrarian]

And now we all know Lauren Ridloff from The Walking Dead and The Eternals - I had no idea this was how she began her acting career.

[@alphaphotoandvideo]

Peter!!!!!!

[@EckonicMaster]

Charlie Conway!

[@hamolina]

@Stephen Colbert Why not interview Lauren Ridloff on your show? I can't remember the last time an up and coming Deaf actor has been on a late night show. #deaftalent

[@nocontextwhatever]

Yes, I would love to see Sean Berdy interviewed!!

[@nocontextwhatever]

Or Nyle DiMarco, etc....

[@Ngamotu83]

Forget that crappy, sappy Dawson's Creek, that only teenage girls enjoyed. Joshua Jackson will always be Peter Bishop as far as I'm concerned.

[@moriellymoproblems7842]

Michael Gibb He will always be Charlie Conway.

[@jenniferhuff4895]

Pillow Ass-Beak looks very different from him. :3

[@thisdamnthingy]

Thankyou. I didn't think I was the only one.

[@thisdamnthingy]

I think that was the first whole Eurovision I'd sat through. That dance number around all those countries, I get a little bit emotional when I see it. Then he showed up on Game Of Thrones! and he's a bad bad man, very convincing.

[@nocontextwhatever]

Does he still know ASL? I wish he’d use it in interviews, that would be amazing 😍🙌
