Dawson's Creek S3, E15 and E16: Principal Greene and Mural Dilemmas
Manage episode 498302940 series 3530200
Remember those Chinese symbol tattoos and decorations that were everywhere in the late '90s? That cultural moment comes roaring back in our latest Dawson's Creek rewatch as Joey creates a mural that gets vandalized by the wealthy school bully Matt Caulfield.
When Pacey reveals that Dawson asked him to "take care of" Joey in his absence, her justifiable outrage at being treated like a possession creates yet another setback in their developing romance. TAdd in Andie's moral dilemma about her PSAT cheating and Jen's surprising absence, and you've got classic Dawson's Creek drama that somehow feels both completely of its time and surprisingly current.
These two episodes surprised us with their relevance - what do you think?
