The Fifth Season of Dawson's Creek is Bad


My Dawson's Creek obsession is still on. I brought the Complete Fifth Season DVD (bought used thank you very much) with me on my travels. And I am so disappointed I made space for this in my suitcase.

What's wrong? Way too much.

Some thoughts...
Jack joining a fraternity: Wrong. He should have gotten a boyfriend.
Jen and Dawson: I actually liked them together but it went from super passionate to over.
Dawson's dad dying: This was a sad storyline but I was ok with it.
Audrey: I love Busy Phillips but I hate Audrey.
Pacey and Joey: They are WAY too cool with each other dating other people. You don't just get over the biggest love of your teen years in a matter of months. You also would not let your new roomie (Audrey) date your ex-boyfriend and be happy about it.
Joey: Everything centers around Joey and it's quite annoying. Isn't this Dawson's Creek? The episode with her getting mugged was awful. But I did like her making out with her English teacher but that's probably because he was played by The State alum, Ken Marino. "Has anyone see my pants?"

I hardly remember what happens in the sixth season. I think Dawson and Joey finally do it but I doesn't work out. I do know how the series finale played out but I'll probably watch it again.

Anyways, the third and fourth seasons are probably the best. They were so entertaining and had that over-the-top verbose dialog. This season, they are just like self-centered college kids. Booring!
