Heading Back To 'Dawson's Creek'
Back when I was drooling over the prospects of Dylan and Kelly getting back together while secretly watching "90210" another show took notice of those around me. While I was stuck listening to Nat's wisdom over a plate of the Peach Pit's famous burger and fries others were enjoying a heavy dose of teen angst courtesy of Dawson and Joey via Dawson's Creek. I immediately jumped on the bandwagon and never returned to that other zip code. Once you go "Creek" you come back every week.
To me "Dawson's", the affectionate nickname the show has been given by true fans, was one of the best one hour drama's that WB/CW reeled on their network. In my opinion "Everwood" was a close 2nd, but Everwood's run of only four seasons was a bit too short and Dawson's run was a bit too long. "Dawson's Creek" helped to put Kevin Williamson on the map (along with "Scream"), and provided a nice foundation for WB to build upon.
To me the best season of Dawson's was Season 4. You can't beat the tension provided by the return of Pacey and Joey from their Summer vacation from Capeside and the Dawson's reaction to their return. You can now watch all 6 Seasons of "Dawson's Creek" courtesy of the new 24 disc collection which features all 127 episodes. Not many extra features on this one, although there is a new interview with creator Kevin Williamson.
