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. ;)

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
    • Bloodshed is inevitable now. It’s another reason I’m glad Black people aren’t getting involved in these protests. As awful as this is, I keep reminding myself that 54 percent of Latino men voted for Trump. These people were put in harm’s way by members of their own communities and sometimes even members of their own families. Too many people decided to touch the stove.
    • Maybe I'm still in denial, but nothing about Neighbours' ongoing social media output gives the vibe of a show that's ending. In today's 'Roundup' video, Alan Fletcher referenced that production finishes in five weeks, but in all the show's posts the cast are as jovial and lighthearted as ever. Remarkably so for people who are about to lose their jobs.    Perhaps they're just putting a brave face on things, and I know they approached the previous axing with a positive attitude. Maybe putting an upbeat face on things is a collective way of showing potential backers that there's still life in the show? Or is it possible that they already know the show has been saved, and we'll get an announcement next month when filming wraps and the show 'rests'?   Does any of that make sense?!
    • A very good week for male eye candy on GH. New Michael is beautiful, Curtis's arms looked great in that polo shirt, Cody looks even more handsome with his new haircut AND we got Marco in swim shorts rocking his lovely bod and chest fur.

    • Yeah when Jamey Giddens did breakdowns for DAYS, he would sometimes state in tweets that specific things were his idea that he had pitched to Ron.
    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.
