SIX SEASONS - here are some tips to tell what season it is. I am not sure what is replaying now.

1 - 13 episodes of their sophomore year in high school. Pacey/his teacher romance. Joey/Dawson angst. Dawson dated Jen.

2 - Full season, continuing their sophomore year in high school. Andie and Jack come into play. Abby Morgan was big. Jen had the short hair and was a "baddie." Jack came out of the closet.

3 - Junior Year of High School. "Eve" joined the cast for the fall. Jen and Jack's friendship was in full gear and AMAZING. Pacey fell for Joey. The spring dealt with the fall out of P/J, and their secret feelings for each other.

4 - Senior Year of High School. Pacey and Joey as a couple. Andie left town. Dawson and Pacey's sister as a couple. Graduation etc. etc.

5 - Freshman Year of College. The drama revolved around Dawson's dad. Dawson and Jen reunited. Pacey as chef. Pacey dates Aubrey. Jack rushed a fraternity.

6. Sophomore year of college. Without a doubt, I think most fans would say it was the worst season. Dawson worked on a movie and dated this whore of an actress. Pacey and Aubrey broke up. Aubrey as an alcoholic. Jen dated Jensen Ackles. Jack dated the guy who is now Kevin from Y&R. There was a weird Australian girl who lived with Jack and Pacey. Pacey as a stock broker. Joey dated Eddie (Oliver Hudson, Kate Hudson's brother.) SUCH A BAD SEASON. God, even my thinking about it is getting my blood boiling.

The series finale is actually available on its own DVD. It can't be more than ten bucks or so at Circuit City or Best Buy. You should pick it up. I own it. It's GREAT.

I was a DC obsessor, if you can't tell! :lol:

Dawson's Creek should have been called Joey's Creek. I loved that show, but the last season there were entire episodes that Dawson wasn't even on. It was horrid. Plus all these other stories with Joey and the bartender. I liked Aubrey, with Pacey. I never wanted him to end up with Joey. Jen was my favorite.

The best thing that came out of DC was Chad Michael Murray

Hated Audrey...but then again, Busy's face just bothers me in general.

Dawson wasn't on later episodes because The Beek requested not to be on every episode in the later seasons.

However, I do agree that it became Joey's Creek...but since I had no patience for the show following Promicide and up to Merry Mahem...it was all good for me.

I was a big fan of the first four seasons... but I lost interest in the show when the fifth season began. I also only bought season 1-4 on DVD - I don't care for the rest. The only good episode of season six was the finale, it was perfect.

Dawson was by far the worst character, followed by Henry, Jen's boyfriend in season three. I wasn't a big fan of Andie, either.

:o Gasp, you didn't like Andie! :lol:

She grew on me. But IA about Seasons 4 onwards. I just couldn't watch them. I never even saw the Series Finale, which I *know* I need to do, like, NOW.

Yeah, I never understood why TPTB thought that Joey and Joey alone could carry the whole show. Although maybe Katie "Troll" Holmes is a better actress than I ever gave her credit for? As evidenced by her tour-de-force performance as Tom Cruise's One True Wuv, of course: "He's. SO. amazing."

Oh yes you definitely do. I was a very casual viewer after season 3 (I actually managed season 6 better than the preceding seasons) but the finale, with Kevin Williamson back at the helm was fantastic. You are pretty guaranteed to cry like a baby. It's just a very sweet, poignant way to wrap the whole thing up as opposed to the Joey-gets-pasted-in-Paris-via-a-green-screen that was to act as the finale.

Season 2 was definitely the best of the show. Misunderstood Abby Morgan dying, Jack coming out, the McPhee's crazy mother...I remember finding the finale very emotionally draining. But then I was an adolescent myself at the time so maybe I was looking for the drama. ;)

    • Great episode, better than what the spoilers said. The gambling story was tolerable but Jon Lindstrom sucks in the role. Ambyr Michelle continues to shine. The diner and country club scenes were very well executed.  The Jan and Leslie scenes were very good! My favorite is Eva, now followed by Nicole.
    • Today's show was good. The only part I didn't care for were the Derek/Ashley scenes. I think they are bland together and Derek is very bland by himself. He is the least interesting character on the show IMO. I don't think they have much chemistry together. I appreciated Jan's reaction to Leslie. I like how regular/realistic her and Mona are as characters. Jan came across as very believable of being appalled and even hurt by Leslie's treatment of them and towards Eva in the diner.  Leslie continues to try and manipulate people with IMO her fake caring routine, only to show her true colors after she's confronted/called out for her treatment of others. I continue to dislike the way she mistreats Eva. Speaking of Eva she was great again today. I love her and I like how Martin comforted her in the diner. I liked that Vernon showed concern for her as well. They (especially Martin) will come around quicker to her before others (like the Dupree women) will. I also am glad to see her and Ted continue to bond and him behaving like a father towards her/helping her. He's the only one in her life who is fully trying to stand by her. I look forward to seeing their relationship grow.
    • Xander was screaming at Felicity.  He did do something wrong.  Felicity was clearly upset by it and Cat/Chad told him to stop.  That's fair.  No one deserves to be yelled at their job-and even I think this plot point is too preachy.  It's not acceptable behavior for anyone to do that.   
    • When Derek finally appears with only a towel, and his chest and pecs/nipples are finally shown, I say yes.

    • Now, actually not. That thought had not even made it into my head, so, no, so far anyway, I've not seen that. Haven't seen today yet. What you're describing is warped & I think she's feeling genuine empathy & sister bond. 
    • Xander was the bigger person apologizing to Cat when he didn't do anything wrong.  he wasn't yelling at Felicity whatsoever, he was asking if she possibly had given them the wrong order by mistake.  He was trying to get to the bottom of what was going on, but Chad/Cat were trying to white knight Felicity even though Felicity was being treated just like anyone else in that situation.   She was the one to bring the order out to them, and usually the person that brings the order out is the one that puts the order together.    I'm still getting a read on the Cat character.   I think she seems to work well when interacting with everyone other than Chad.   Perhaps the new writers can move Cat out of Chad's orbit into another orbit. Paulina has been written quite well the few times she's been on since the writer change.  I think Jackee is enjoying the new writing.. you can tell when she's on screen.  
    • LOL - well, Peter was included in the grandkids' section, each named specifically with their $100K trusts.  It must have been the abs...

        In Henry's will, he said it had to do with Hart having a chance at being a better person than his father, since his father isn't providing for him (I'm paraphrasing here, but it was about Roger).  Still a little surprised...
    • I'm glad the truth is all out regarding Roman and Kate's secrets from each other, and also happy Roman didn't make much of the letter forgery, because why would he even care? They are a good solid couple. However, not to be mean, when Roman had his little flashback at the DiMera mansion he seemed more like an old man that was lost. How wonderfully aggravating that we still don't know what the hell happened with Johnny the night EJ was shot. I can't wait to find out. I've my feelings clear on Paulina, but she was definitely written much more adult and Jackée even seemed a bit toned down, for the better. Nothing boring about either scenes for me. I like the little drama between Xander and Cat, for the newness of the interaction alone. AnnaLynne McCord is much better at material where she's not acting dementedly lovesick. Seeing that side to Cat was integral to remembering she's not a moron, and I am definitely intrigued by the heck could be calling her. Kevin Lambert returning is a cute little surprise. I never watched Chadwick Hopson in the role though, was he any good?

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
