Cool! I rule!

Sorry, this isn't necessarily related to the season finale, but just the show as a whole...

Who the hell speaks like that when they're in high school? These kids speak like they're speaking out of an SAT vocabulary book or going to Ivy League schools or something....while I understand and enjoy the dialogue, I just have a hard time believing that kids speak like that in high school...or maybe I'm just dumb.

The know how they talk and actually make fun of themselves sometimes. I think it's just part of te humor of the show.

I actually thought the season finale was pretty good. Did anyone catch that song in it, it's just guitar I think. It doesnt have words or anything, it was written by the guy that composes songs for dawsons creek. I think its actually been in one of the special trailers before. Not the one about the season finale, the one before that, that showed how the show would kind of end. Its a really amazing song.

I agree. My friends and I talked like that in high school in jest. Dawson's Creek is actually the first teen show that mirrors at all similar experiences of my teen life, except me and my friends did much much worse things. But for me, this was the first teen show with intelligent, real writing. Everyone's teen experiences were different, and this show correlates with some people's lives, and not with others.

Well, as an old DC fan, I decided to check up on it this year. IMO, this show has SO lost its luster.

They did a good job in capturing the feelings of leaving high school relationships behind and heading into a new phase in life, but otherwise, it just "lacked." The first season, it was a great show about kids in love. Now it's out of its element, I think.

Really, if the show were just about Dawson and Joey, I think I'd enjoy it a lot more. All the other subplots were pretty lame.

I did like the appearance of the girl from Freaks and Geeks as Joey's roommate. She's great.

What did you think?

I agree with you, the first season was incredible...it all went downhill after that. I can't complain about the shots of Katie Holmes running around in short shorts though.

I wouldn't call the first season "incredible" as it was doing the same thing many other shows were doing. It was pretty good, especially for a teeny-bopper drama, but I never found it anything overly special. After that first season, though, it became as silly as the last 9 years of 90210.

das

Well I still like watching cuz of Katie.
And I'm more of a Joey-Pacey fan.

One more vote for those Joey jogging scenes!

I think DC has it's ups and downs. The whole Dawson-Pacey-Joey triangle last year was for the most part written very well. The last scene from the prior season where Dawson tells Joey to go with Pacey on his boat for the summer was probably the best scene in the series.

Who can see Joey going from zero to super-b!tch in about 3.6 seconds when she finds out Pacey has been in Boston for a while?! I think it will be a struggle for the series to be like it was when everyone was in high school. It's still worth checking in on just for Katie!!!

I watch it for Katie Holmes as well. She looked great last night. Joey should move on, though. I didn't like how it ended. Obligatory pic:

I watched it last night....it looks like this season is going to suck....

Is Pacey getting written off the show? He had, what, one scene?

Joey's roommate was hilarious, though.

I haven't watched this since early 2nd season, but c'mon, PICS???

I know, I know, the show is cheesy, but I like watching it anyway.
This year they are in college. Alot of the campus scenes especially where Katie Holmes's dorm resides looks alot like my alma mater Cornell University's North Campus. Lots of scenes of Balch Hall. Is it really Cornell or just someplace that looks like Cornell?

I have no idea.

But since someone started a Dawson's Creek thread: What the hell happened? I was watching the summer repeats, and I have to wonder if I missed some transition shows from last season's finale.

When did Joey and Pacey break up? I recall Joey lying to Dawson about her losing her virginity to Pacey on the school skiing trip.

What happened with Dawson and Pacey's older sister (I liked her, she was a hottie).

From the looks of it, Joey and Michelle's character, and Kerr's character go to the local college, and Dawson got some money from the old man who died, and he went to CAlifornia to study film, but now it seems Dawson is coming back and will be going to the local college as well, and Joey and Dawson are starting back together. Pacey now works in a restaurant. Michelle's character is starting up with the guy who played Tristan on Gilmore Girls.

Joey's roommate has the hots for Dawson. And Joey's professor has the hots for her.

Anyhow, I'm pretty confused by the transition from high school to college.

If I recall correctly (watched it last season, but not this one), Pacey was a total jerk at the prom and basically ruined it for Joey. They got into a huge argument and I believe broke up.

Dawson and Pacey's older sister also split up, She left town and ultimately decided he was not over Joey, so they weren't right for wach other.

Joey and Dawson were dancing at the prom and Pacey got into a jealous rage and made a scene.

DAMN! Why didn't they show that show in the summer repeats? Now things make a little more sense. Thanks for the recap. I guess they have to get Dawson back on the east coast (or change the name to Dawson 90210).

Pacey broke up with Joey at the prom in front of the entire school saying that she only dated him out of pity and/or she was slumming. he didn't want to be her pet fix-up project.

Pacey's sister went back to college. Dawson almost followed her, but thought differently of it.

Jen and Jack go to a "regular" university but Joey goes to a more ivy leave, much harder to get into, private school -- but all in Boston. Dawson gave her his old man inheritance to go there.

I haven't been watching this season (as it's up against Enterprise) but I just looked at the episode guide on the site.

WHOA!

I can't believe:



How did this happen? Kind of a shocking turn for this series.

Jadzia that's next weeks episode. The previews showed him leaning over to get his ice cream he dropped while he was driving.

Oh, the episode description I read for next week said something like "Dawson must learn to cope with it" so I assumed it already happened.

He leaned over for the ice cream last night and when he got back up, he seen headlights coming towards him. That's when it went off and next week Dawson and the gang find out. Dawson blames himself!

Aw, the Flash go bye-bye!

I liked the part where Joey visited Pacey on his "boat" and how they seemed to have forgiven each other in their own way without actually saying the words.
