Dawson’s Creek re-watch 13/x

S1/E10

Teenage son sat down next to me while I’m watching. Laughed at the Joey x Pacey banter but ran out of the room because the Double Date scene at the fair was too cringe for him to watch.

Another generation feeling the embarrassment that is Dawson Leery.

Asking the ex of your date for suggestions? You really think that’s a good idea, Cliff?

Pacey saving Joey from the jerk that made her drunk and tried to take advantage.

And then reciting the plot of The English Patient to baby Alexander. That guy is so adorable.

Joey, don’t take drinks from random people! Never. Ever.

So Dawson’s parents just let some guy they don’t know crash in their house??? The bad boy ex from their son’s girlfriend?

S1/E06

I knew Pacey was the true hero of the show when he took all the responsibility for the rumor to help Tamara. Painting himself the bad guy and taking all the scorn. Especially from his own family.

Bessie giving birth to the baby in Dawson’s house might have saved her a lot of money.

S1/E05

Doug assuming that Tamara might think he’s too young for her while she’s boning his ten years younger brother, her pupil.

People have issues if stuff like that happens in fanfiction and here it’s prime time TV canon. Without any consequences for the teacher.

What is actually Mr. Leery’s job? For five episodes (and in late 90s TV time that’s an eternity) he’s been talking about opening a restaurant. Is he even a chef?

Dougie, finally. I didn’t like him in the beginning but he grew on me. I just always had hoped there would be something about how wrongly he treated Pacey over the whole Tamara debacle.

I really hate that story line.

The realization that Issac Lahey (Teen Wolf) and Dawson Leery (Dawson’s Creek) have the same (TV) dad.

There is such a thing as over-tagging.

Reading 10,000+ word fics with tag character A x character B friendship. Then in the whole thing there is one sentence that those two characters became friends (offscreen).

That’s not what I’m looking for when filter to include that tag. It’s really annoying.

Dawson’s Creek re-watch 3/x

S1/E01

Dawson cut Joey’s appearance in the movie short because she didn’t want to kiss Pacey and replaced her with Jen.

Then he got jealous about the movie kiss between Jen and Pacey and decided to completely cut the kiss.

Something that was impossible when Joey suggested it.

So pathetic.

It’s really hard to get through the Pacey/Tamara parts. So wrong on so many levels.

Dawson’s Creek re-watch 1/x

S1/E01

The store Pacey and Dawson worked at still (solely) carried VHS instead of DVD.

I try to remember when the switch happened around where I lived and I really can’t. I knew both, but can’t pinpoint the time when I rented what.

I love reading old fics of finished shows that were written when early seasons just aired. Especially between two seasons when a cliffhanger left paths open.

The different ways authors imagined the next season will go vs. how it really happened. It has a different vibe than “what ifs” of authors who already know how canon will turn out and just decide to change it.

Why do I only now realize that The Who’s Behind blue eyes is the perfect song for season one Derek?
