Welcome to Basic Teen TV. In our very first season, we will discuss one of the biggest teen tv dramas of the 90's: Dawson's Creek. It's now been over two decades since it's premier and one of us will be rewatching it again for the first time in 21 years while the other is a grown ass woman watching it for the very first time.

In our first episode we are introduced to Dawson, Joey, Pacey and Jen. There were a lot of things I did not remember from these first two episodes and let's be honest from the whole series as you'll find out soon. Also, Victoria was able to quickly defined each character in about 8 words or less. Of course, there was lots of drama because, I mean, how else were the writers and producers going to hook teenagers across the land into the show? DRRRRRRAAAMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Victoria and I discuss episodes 3, 4 and 5 in the second episode of Basic Teen TV and there was A LOT to discuss. We get into the state of relationships between Dawson and Jen, Pacey and Ms. Jacobs and Joey, as well, finds herself a romantic stranger. And then a typical plot device brings almost everyone together to air out all of the drama among our cast of characters of Capeside.

Things kind of blow up in Capeside in these next episodes that we discuss. We've got some love triangles going on. Babies are having babies. Dawson continues to be 100% completely oblivious to Joey's feelings for him. And we see if Pacey's "relationship" with Ms. Jacobs is in it for the long haul. Oh, and there's an homage to one of the great John Hughes films. 

The drama swirling around Dawson and Jen and Jen's ex-boyfriends/other love interests is starting to wear on Victoria. We're not all to impressed with the way the show handles teen pregnancy. We've discovered a running theme where older women being inserted in the lives of these teenagers. Can somebody say "mommy issues"??? And Cliff may be suffering from temporary amnesia, we're not sure but maybe. And the show takes a slight break from the usual storylines to put the whole gang in a "I Know What You Did" / "Scream" / all the horror movies scenario where reality and fiction get a little blurry. Dun-dun-duhhhhh...

We've made to the end of Season 1! Woohoo! This brings so much joy to Victoria as we close out all of the drama of the Capeside gang but not without some CLIFFhangers. LOL!
