James Van Der Beek has sadly passed away at the age of 48, and many people are mourning the loss of an actor and a series that shaped their young adult lives. So now it’s time to talk about his real-life romance that the world became obsessed with, his greatest role that nobody ever talks about, and how his co-stars are remembering him.

Plus, we’re in the second week of Married At First Sight Australia, and the honeymoon is well and truly over for most of our couples. Now we have some burning questions to answer, like is the hatred against one of the women really justified, or is it all just a setup for the show? And why do all these men look so alike? Something strange is going on here.
