It jumped when Pacey named his boat True Love after Joey. From then on, Dawson faded away into the background and you realized they were gonna switch from DJ to PJ. The whole explanation in the finale for why DJ don't end up together was stupid. KW doesn't understand that most people think of soulmates as those who are meant to be together. DC goes against that idea to allow for Pacey to get the girl
The show jumped when they went to college.The worst part of it was Dawson and Joey's on and off relationship, Charlie, and I was never a fan of Audrey. Season three will always be my favorite. The chemistry between Joey and Pacey lept off the screen. Those episodes were so romantic and heartwrenching. Joshua Jackson was always the best of the bunch and he showed us who the real leading man was. Katie Holmes lost her appeal to me with season five, particularly for how she acted after Dawson's dad died. Michelle Williams always showed her amazing acting chops, too bad she was always in KH's shadow. Then again which one of them is an oscar nominated actress. Regardless, the Pacey/Joey romance was the highlight of the series for me. The buildup to their romance are some of the best episodes, and despite my eventual distaste for Joey and KH I am happy Pacey got his girl in the end.
I'm rewatching some of season 4, and Joey and Pacey are actually a much better couple than I used to think. However, I always felt it was unfair that Joey and Dawson were never given the chance they deserved. I agree they lacked the chemistry she and Pacey had but I think that had a lot to do with their real-life dating, so JP immediately had that advantage. DJo were still a much better fit than Dawson and Jen.
I never had problems with the vocabulary on this show. Some of you guys must be some real idiots. I'm not even that good at vocab. I think your parents must have deprived you of words when you were kids.
The magic was really gone when Kevin Williamson, the original writer, walked out at the end of season 2. With the exception of the character of Todd in season 5 and 6, Dawsons Creek was extremely average from season 2 on. Don't get me wrong, still entertaining but not like the epic omg this is the best show ever feel. I was ticked that Dawson and Joey never really got their chance to be together at a time that they would have been good for each other. And remember in season 1 when we were all rooting for Jen to be Dawsons girl, but joey came along and we were pissed! By the time Dawson did get together with Jen it was very lack luster, same as when Dawson finely slept with Joey. If any of you haven't seen season's one and two they are really in a class by themselves as compared to the rest of the series.
The way Dawson found Jen even more hot laying there dead gave me the creeps. He felt his giant head and her shrivelling body was erotic. Yuk!
I thought the ending was perfect. The things that everyone's upset about are the things that set the show apart.
How many shows have not one but two of the main characters die? I mean, Mitch dying, that could happen in other shows. Grams getting breast cancer, that could happen in other shows. But Jen dying? That finale was one of the most moving episodes of television I've ever seen. It's so powerful. People die, but death is never portrayed that well. You know a show is good when it can make you cry for an hour AFTER it's over.
And Pacey and Joey was perfect. The whole Joey/Dawson relationship was such a childish cliche. Just because you're best friends with a member of the opposite sex does not mean that you're romantic soulmates. That's just silly. Joey had chemistry with Pacey; she had none with Dawson. The times in the show that they were a couple probably made for the most boring scenes of the whole series.
I agree that the pre-graduation and post-graduation seasons seem like two different shows, in a way. However, I think that both parts are done so well that I really don't care. I may even prefer the post-graduation stuff, because they're not all whining all the time.
I do wish that there weren't so many cliches: Jack turning into a drunken frat boy, Pacey turning into a man-slut stockbroker, and especially Audrey becoming an alchoholic. I loved the character in the fifth season, why did they have to turn her character into this totally messed up girl? And then her hooking up with CJ? Gross.
And then later Jen got together with him? That seemed really out of nowhere, for him to be such a freak and then all of the sudden he's sweet, he likes her, and they're this great couple?
But the additions of Emma, Eddie, David, Todd, and even Natasha really made the show better and more interesting than it had been in high school.

It jumped when the show became all about the DJP love triangle. The original point of the show was for 2 lifelong friends (Joey and Dawson, not Joey and Pacey) to fall in love. Once it became about Dawson and Pacey becoming enemies to compete for Joey's love, the show drifted. Also, you could tell how real the D/P tension was (apparently there was a brief off-screen triangle between them too)
Well i have just recently recieved the Dawson Creek seasons on dvd but I know about the Series Finale and the way that Joey and Pacey stay together.
I am cofused that if Dawson and Joey are Soulmates then why did they not get together in the end?

Comon! Make some more stuff the show was great! Why did it end? It did sort of jump a little bit or started to, but it oviously pulled itself back up there. All the WB shows had to end, and every show has to eventually. Dawson's should've gone for a least another year.and Pacey and Joey, YUCK! Comon, it is okay, but I don't prefer it. And Jen should not have died. She should've have gotten sick, but not dying. They need to re write it and make one more episode. Make a major flic or something. Seriously think about it people. It would be great! Even if Joey and Pacey are still together, Dawson's Creek will forever be a legend and you know it!

Love Katie Holmes, but this show JTS's when she and Dawson started dating in season 2. That was around the time the creator of the show Williamson left to write that cartoon movie. The show was finished.
Pacey and Andie were a kind of romantically inspirational couple that you couldn't help but have faith in. The shark was jumped when the writers took their relationship for granted and had Andie cheat on him whilst away from Capeside. I don't care about the excuse they gave - there's no justifiable reason for breaking up the sweetest couple on the show. It just seemed like they wanted the viewers to hate Andie so that people would prefer Pacey over Dawson for Joey.
