Dawson's Creek S4, E5 & E6: Plus our NYC Reunion Thoughts
Manage episode 509087192 series 3530200
Before we dove into talking about the next two episodes in Season 4, we chatted about the recent NYC reunion of the original cast (plus a few others). The emotional weight of James Van Der Beek's absence from the event definitely cast a bittersweet shadow over our rewatch of these episodes this week.
Ep. 5: "A Family Way" explores Gail's unexpected pregnancy with remarkable nuance, offering a mature portrayal of reproductive choices rarely seen in late '90s television. This storyline resonated with us when viewed alongside James Van Der Beek's real-life journey as a father of six/
Ep. 6: "Great Xpectations" follows the Capeside crew as they all attend a rave. Andie's life is put on the line when she decides to try some of the Ecstasy that Drue gave Jen.
We are rewatching Season 4 of Dawson's Creek on Hulu and Amazon Prime.
