Dawson's Creek Re-Watch
Jun. 4th, 2014 06:45 pmI recently started a Dawson's Creek re-watch and I'm up to season 3. I watched DC way back when it first aired, and apparently there is a huge difference between teeny bopper me's opinion and grown up me's opinion. I remember being such a Dawson/Joey shipper. It honestly ruined the show for me that they spent so much time apart. And I absolutely could not stand Pacey/Joey.
This time around my opinions couldn't be more different!! Dawson is so whiny and melodramatic, which is exactly what he's supposed to be, but I do not see how I ever found that attractive. In no way, shape or form do I want Joey with Dawson. I'm really looking forward to her and Pacey hooking up...and the hours, and hours of fic in my future!
Also, I could not stand Jen. It's not so bad this time, except the radical change from season one to season two still annoyed me. She was super cute in the first season, and then it was like they really wanted to play up the angsty teen from NY so she had to cut off her hair and wear a leather jacket all the time.
I do love her and Jack's friendship which has just really started in my re-watch.
So basically I have to apologize to all my friends who are Pacey/Joey shippers because I've totally been side-eye judging you in private. I'm crossing over to your side now!!
