Summary: Hello, My name is Tommy, and I'm a Dawson Alcoholic
Review: In the Spiring of 1998, I started watching what was to become, one of my generations deffing Televion Shows. I started Watching Dawson, because it was on right after, my all-time favorite Television show "Buffy th Vampire Slayer" but in no time at all Dawson found its place in my heart. I have to admit that when the first seaosn aired I was 10 years-old and in the 5th grade. I didn't understand most the show, and today can't beleive that my parents allowed me to watch it.

But now (As i am 15 and a sophomore, well i was until yesteryday), as I watch the first season on DVD and the other 5 season on TBS, I relieve that even though unrelistic at times, Dawson's Creek is the perfect show for a to watch growing up. It has many lesson, cleaverly hidden inbetween the weekly who's dating who. The First Season is clearly the best. Unfortunatly The shows got worse each year, except Season 6 was far better than the almost unwatchable season 5.

But now as the show is over, and I know where my favorite characters are in there lives 10 years later (Even though my one of my two favorite characters are now 6-feet under), this season feels like an old book that I can open whenever I wan't. The end of the series also brings a hole new prospective onto the season. I don't think anyboy can watch the first season, then the Series Finale, and then the first seaosn again and not cry.

One more food for thought to mention is, that if you look at the 1998 - 2000 television seasons, what where the top teen shows? The Answer is Dawson's Creek, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Feliciy, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Rosewell, and Popular. Now in 2003 three of the shows are long gone: Felicity, popular, and Rosewell, and the final 3 which where bigger, better, and more crically acclaimed show: Dawson, Buffy, and Sabrina end in the same month. Now all we have are DVD's, and i know that at least one person will keep these disc's close to there heart, because I know no matter where i am in my life, I will always remember how i grew up just by poping in a disc.

Summary: The Original Great Teen Show
Review: Dawson's Creek was the beginning of a new age of teen shows. With its smart writting and interesting plot lines it paved the way for many other teen shows to follow. This series was the first reflect teens as intellgent, deep, and witty. Each episode touched on teen issues that could be useful to the impresonabl audience. Dawson's Creek was a great show and this series would be great to add to your DVD collection.

Summary: Can't Wait for the Second Season!!
Review: I loved this movie. It reminds me of me and my childhood. All I can tell you is that you will not be dissappointed....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I would have to disagree
Review: Season 2 is a better season in terms of character development, but, if you are a Dawson's Creek fan (why bother buying it and reviewing it if you are not)you will want to have the first season of Kevin Williamson's series.

To respond to the finale, I disagree, the ending was very clear. Pacey was her adult love and Dawson, while he would always remain special, was her childhood ideal. Yes, he is still her soulmate, but soulmates are not always the best lovers. I just wish more was done with Jack in the finale.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best of Dawson's Creek...
Review: If you are a fan of the show at all, this is a must have. The first season exudes teen drama which is a guilty pleasure to a lot of us. The way the cast talk is just as fun as the love triangles. I would also like to comment the person who said to buy the "Buffy" DVD instead. These two shows have absolutly nothing in common and should not even be compared to one another. The only thing they have in common is the WB and teens. Dawson's Creek is a show that everyone can relate to about they're highschool years and coming of age. I recommend it to anyone who loves drama.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must Have For Dawson's Creek Fans!!!!
Review: From the Pilot episode introducing the Creek gang until the season finale where Dawson finally realizes Joey for the woman she has blossomed into with a passionate and heartfelt kiss....its all here for you to relive every moment. This is definitely a must have for all Creek Fans!!! Can't wait for Season Two!!!!

Summary: what happened to episodes 8and 9
Review: I bought the DVD and the only complain is episodes 8 and 9 are listed on the sleeve but they are not on the DVD track. Has anyone else noticed this?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Why you should buy Buffy DVD's instead!
Review: Dawsons Creek is one of those melodramatic teen shows. It's a stupid show. The dialogue is somewhat interesting, but not enough. They talk, and talk, about nothing. It's just boring [stuff]. Buffy showcases excellent dialogue, great humor, and even violence occasionally. If you want something of this teen genre, then why not the best. Don't buy second rate garbage, buy Buffy the Vampire Slayer. You won't regret it.

P.S. If you already own the Buffy DVD's and your thinking about buying Dawsons Creek, don't. Get a movie, I recommend Citizen Kane.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: DVD Review - Not Series Review
Review: Ok, I am not going to waste more space reviewing the season. This set is worth the purchase for any D/C fan. If you're a fan, you're going to want this set. Simple as that. However, the DVDs themselves need to be reviewed.

* A big disappointment is the video quality. The picture is very grainy. Honestly, I think my VCR taped episodes at ES speed look better.

* Also, I really wish each episode was broken up into chapters/scenes. Each episode is a separate scene which means you have to scan thru the entire episode from the beginning to get to specific episode parts.

* The sound is in Dolby Pro Logic which is fine since that is how the series aired. The special features are sparse and fairly "not special." Commentary is offered only for the first and last episode although more commentaries would have made the set more than 3 discs (although hopefully, expansion would have allowed a better picture - speaking of which, did the opening title/theme have to be included for every episode?)

A must buy for any obsessive D/C fan (is there any other kind?), just be prepared for the low picture quality and a lack of other standard DVD features/qualities.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Waiting for more...
Review: This is a wonderfuL DVD collection. It literally takes me back to the original reasons of why I was so captivated with Dawson's Creek in the first place. Watching the first season again I realize how much I had forgotten, and having now seen the later seasons and the finale, the first season makes so much more sense now. My only criticism and regret is that the series is now over after six seasons, and only the very first season is available for purchase. In my opinion, they should atleast have the first four seasons out on DVD by now. Oh well, no matter when they bring out the rest of the DVD's I will purchase them all, I just hope that it happens soon...
