Don’t Trust the B— in Apartment 23 star Krysten Ritter has a candid explanation for why the cult-favorite comedy was canceled. Debuting in April 2014 on ABC, the intriguingly titled sitcom followed Chloe (Ritter, on the heels of a memorable Breaking Bad guest role), a party girl who routinely asks her roommates for payment up front and then starts to behave wildly until they leave. One roommate, June (Dreama Walker), proves more difficult to drive away. The series, which also featured Dawson's Creek alum James Van Der Beek as a fictionalized version of himself, got positive reviews and developed a loyal following. But it was canceled after only two seasons. 5x6p30

It's hard to portray a character after playing such an iconic heartthrob like Dawson Leery, but James Van Der Beek was lucky enough to stumble upon the perfect role to escape that Dawson's Creek's shadow: himself. While Don't Trust the B**** In Apartment 23 only lasted a season and a half on ABC, those who were fortunate enough to catch the underrated sitcom during it's run got to witness an artist at work.

One of the reasons Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 was so good was because of all of the cameos by famous celebrities throughout the series. It gave it an extra edge as fans were drawn to this mix of reality and fictional comedy all rolled into one. James Van Der Beek was a regular on the show, but there were several others who came along to portray themselves in various episodes.
