*PlotParallel: The writers loved doing this, specially on Season 3:
**For a short time, Joey dates AJ Moller, an University student who, it turns ut, is actually in love with his childhood friend Morgan. This of course parallels Joey and Dawson's situation at the start of the series ─AJ & Morgan even resemble them, with him being a Literature Major (thus being a creator of stories), and her being an art major in France's Sorbonne (just as Joey wishes to be!). It's a double PlotParallel, since it's the situation Joey is with [[spoiler: Pacey]] right at the same time she meets Morgan, with her being tremendously ObliviousToLove towards him. The episode "Cinderella Story" even ends with both set of couples ackonwledging their mutual feelings!
**A short time later, on "The Longest Day", Dawson's watching Film/TheLastPictureShow, whose plot is tremendously similar to the situation between [[spoiler: Pacey, Joey]] and him. This is [[LampshadeHanging intended by him]], since he apparently wants her to confess of being dating the other guy.

The {{Doylist}} motivation was the untimely death of David Dukes, who played him.

He is last mentioned in the Season 6 Christmas episode, vacationing in Europe with Jack and Andie.
