Dawson's Creek

[dangermousie]

Next up on my netflix queue? Dawson's Creek. Yes, I've never seen a minute of it. I did check out this Pacey/Joey video and it looks deliciously teen soapy. Yay.

Dawson's Creek was my guilty pleasure for years. Pacey and Joey are fabulous, though it doesn't start heating up till season three. But they do engage in some nice snark until you get there :)

Cute icon! Yeah, I am definitely giving DC a try. And if I don't like, there's always the ff button...

Oh MY GOD! WHICH SEASON?! EEEEE! I just totally OD'd on seasons 3 and 4. Pacey and Joey = The original OTP. Although the dialogue is somewhat cringeworthy in parts. You MUST WATCH. It's like the granddaddy of them all!
Runs to check out vid.

Since I've never seen any, I've decided to start at the beginning, aka S1, disc 1. Should I skip straight to S3 though? I know that's where all the P/J goodness is.

Well you do sort of need the backstory. And there is some lovely snark between them in the first couple of seasons. And Pacey gets redeemed by a good girl etc etc.
I think that if you're going to do it you need to do it right. If you skip straight in at S3 it's kind of like starting VM at RB if you see what I mean. Although I am all in favour of fast forwarding Dawson and Andie. As far as I'm concerned it should have been Joey's creek.
WATCH IT ALL. THAT IS AN ORDER!

I am now off on a hunt for appropriate DC userpics

*attempts to form a coherent reply but fails because of your icon*

That happens a lot. Don't feel bad.

Pacey is, like, my biggest character crush EVER. He beats Logan big time, and I love Logan.

Wow. *is impressed*

Fun! I'm interested to see if you're a DJer (Dawson/Joey) or a PJer (Pacey/Joey). It's very hard to be both. I'm a DJer because I'm a soulmatey type. :) I like Pacey, but I couldn't get past the "betraying your best friend" thing (much the issue I have with Polarism).

Oh, and have fun with naughty Jason Behr in Season 2. He's hilarious.

Jason Behr is in DC? *dies* Now I am definitely watching.

And what a gorgeous icon!

I am usually a soulmatey type (Buffy/Angel, Max/Liz), but sometimes I go for couple that comes later if they are hot and have chemistry (Logan/Veronica) so we will see...

[muffinkath7.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he's in Season 2. He plays "Chris Wolfe", who has a fling with Jen. He's the "bad boy".

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Yay!

I haven't seen that in so long. I should watch some reruns. You know, Rob Thomas from VM wrote a few episodes from the first season. Oh, and Jensen is in a couple episodes of season 4 (I think?), but his character is kind of boring. Didn't know Jason Behr was in it, that's cool. Funny how all these people pop up who you didn't recognize then...Anyway, it's pretty good. If you like teen dramas, this is the mother of all shows.

Yup, even if I don't like it, I figure I really must watch some eps, just so I'd know whether I do or not!

I'll look forward to this. :D
