I've loved Kerr Smith as an actor ever since I first saw him star on Dawson's Creek. I loved how is character Jack McPhee grew as a person on screen. He made Jack who he was on the show. I couldn't see anyone else playing him. From being the brother of Andie, to Joey's boyfriend, to the first and only gay person in Capeside. But he made it through all of that to become a great person. Kerr played that role so well, that's what made me love Jack as a person. Then playing on Charmed as Detective Kyle Brody. It gave him more standing in the TV world starring in another long time running WB show. It showed what a wonderful and talented actor he really was. Obviously Dawson's Creek and Charmed were two different shows, and Kerr got to show two sides of himself. Kyle Brody was more of the brooding type. Being the love interest of Paige and the tough take no guff kind of cop. Then moving onto Tom Nicholson on Justice made it all the more worth while to start watching the show. I love this show very much especially the episodes where Tom would be trying the case. This is another role that he owned, he moved from the akward,estranged character of Jack to a tought attourney. His character Tom was sympathetic to his clients, but not too much that they would take advantage of him in the process. He knew what he was talking about, and knew exactly how he was going to get it done. This showed me how much I love Kerr Smith as an actor. I've really grown to like his acting style, how he really gets into his role. I can't wait to see more from him in the future on tv, and hopefully more acting roles in movies.

As Jack, on the hit teen soap Dawson's Creek, Kerr brought a level of sensitivity to a great character that had a lot to deal with early on in adolescence. A role that required a lot performance wise and was some what unpresidented in the world of teen soaps Kerr pulled it off with sheer excellence. He became a personel favorite of mine after only his first season on the show, sticking around until the very end.

An examination of Kerr Smith's cinematic accomplishments shows a very hard working young man. I am amazed that he got his start on "As the World Turns". Kerr probably gets a big laugh anytime anyone pegs him as the gay character on "Dawson's Creek." Considering that Kerr has been in "Hit and Runway" about fashion; "The Broken Hearts Club" as a gay baseball player; the vampire Film, "The Forsaken" with Brendan Fehr, Johnathon Schaech, and Simon Rex; and the TV Movie "Silver Lake" a notorious suburb of Los Angeles with a significant gay population, the irony is Kerr is quite heterosexual, happily married to actress Harmoni Everette.

As a teen faced with accepting his homosexuality, Smith's performance in the series stood out among his many talented co-stars, and it showed his capabilities as an actor. Following on the heels of such low-budget efforts as Hit and Runway ( 1999 ) and The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy ( 2000 ), Smith boarded a doomed flight in Final Destination ( also 2000 ) and battled desert vampires in the following year's The Forsaken. It is surprising that he has not been able to get any better roles in films. Maybe he should stick to tv (he was very good in CSI Miami) until a good movie role.

When he joined the cast of my favourite series Charmed, i was surprised but he gave a great performance playing the recurring role of Kyle Brody.I was totally shocked when they killed him of the show, so when i saw in a later episode that he was a whitelighter i hoped they could bring him back as a love interest for Paige, i thought they made a great couple.
