08.03.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 22—Joey Potter And The Capeside Redemption
It's the season finale of season 6, not to be confused with the series finale, and we're making yet another movie about Dawson's high school experience. There's things to love, things to hate, but mostly there's a lot of payoff...
07.20.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 21—Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road
We're 2 episodes from the end and everything seems to be falling apart at the old creek. Dawson is rightfully mad at Pacey but somehow this turns once again into a conversation about Joey and about Dawson and Pacey's friendship...
07.13.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 20—Catch-22
Ah, and here we are, an episode just teeming with shitty men. We've got Rich and Hetson and Eddie all in one episode making everyone miserable. It's nearly too much to bear. At least this is a lot of people's last...
07.06.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 19—Lovelines
What a disaster of an episode. Just what was literally everyone thinking here? Like we're just making up problems so that these people can be on Loveline when there are tons of actual problems between these characters we could talk...
06.29.2022
Dawson's Critique Week Off
Hey Y'all, we just couldn't do it this week. With the decision on Roe v. Wade and us being at Lovelilnes, we couldn't do it. Please take care of yourselves and each other. We love you.
06.22.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 18—Love Bites
I mean, this is an episode about Harley and Patrick, who se don't care about, with a totally chopped up Dawson story, and Jen is tortured again, while Pacey and Joey...long deep sigh. We're trying to make it through guys,...
06.15.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 17—Sex & Violence
Well this is a long one so you know what that means...we hated it. Who even are the people we're watching because they don't seem like the characters we spent 6 years getting to know. Why is every character introduced...
06.08.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 16—That Was Then
This episode is starts and ends strong and then who knows what happens in the middle. Why are there so many garbage men on our screen. Like what's a test we can do to measure just how many garbage men...
06.01.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 15—Castaways
We have arrived. It's Castaways. The only episode where we'll accept that Jack and Jen are gone. The episode that makes us scream and drop to the floor and compare to every other episode. The jewel in the crown of...
05.25.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 14—Clean And Sober
We have arrived at this absolute gem of an episode. We love every second of it. We have our favorite character, Drunk Joey. We have Jack, Pacey, Jen, and Joey friendship moments. We have Dawson and Audrey friendship delightful moments. This...
05.18.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 13—Rock Bottom
Rock bottom indeed. This episode it so much. A bad remix of Pacey and Joey's great run in Home Movies, as well as a bad remake of Crossroads, and a bunch of new people we can't stand and no explanations...
05.04.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 12—All The Right Moves
Woof, you guys. What show or shows are we watching right now? First off, Jen's bangs. Secondly, what show is Pacey on because it's not Dawson's Creek? Third, Why does Joey want to help Eddie now that he ditched her...
04.27.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 11—Day Out Of Days
Well, we certainly got to talking about this episode. Come for us complaining about how joyless everything has been and stay for us talking J.K. and her terrible legacy of TERF-y ness. Join us for this deep dive into the 90s...
04.20.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 10—Merry Mayhem
It's Christmas time in good old Capeside and we're very confused as to whether we have missed an entire episode where literally anyone talked about their feelings or if we're just beyond caring about that kind of pesky thing. This...
04.13.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 9—Everything Put Together Falls Apart
First things first, I have to apologize for some of the audio. I (Julia) was at a 100 year old haunted hotel and the wi-fi was fitting of that description so I did the best I could. But we're talking...
04.06.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 8—Spiderwebs
Unfortunately the song Spiderwebs is not played in this episode where everyone is messy and wild and No Doubt is playing a concert in Wooster. Natasha and Dawson are making out everywhere and getting arrested. Joey and Eddie are hiding...
03.30.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 7—Ego Tripping At The Gates Of Hell
Everyone is acting a mess this week. Audrey is breaking shit at the bar, Joey is not standing up for anyone. Jen is not getting the hint that CJ isn't into her, Jack is not getting rid of that professor...
03.23.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 6—Living Dead Girl
We do so love a Dawson's Creek Halloween ep and this one is the last one. But man is everyone acting a mess in this. Pacey and Audrey implode spectacularly. Jen and CJ we can't get a handle on. Jack...
03.16.2022
Dawson's Critique—One Week Break
Hey y'all. Life got in the way so we're taking a one week break while Erin moves into her new apartment. We chatted for a second about some life things and we'll see you for a full ep breakdown next...
03.09.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 5—The Imposters
We're here screaming about why no one is realizing what a mess Audrey is again, but also, how is anyone, including the audience, supposed to know when we get nothing? Pacey's literally sleeping on the job of boyfriend, Joey's trying to...
03.02.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 4—Instant Karma!
Here we are, the dreaded Dawson and Joey see each other again scene. But wait, there's another girl who actually calls Dawson out and doesn't get mad at Joey and we're actually here for it. Plus, Dawson and Joey talk...
02.23.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 3—The Importance Of Not Being Too Earnest
This episode is just a wild ride and maybe not in a good way. Joey writes an email to Dawson and oops it goes to all of Worthington instead. Then we get Hetson being awful about that email, Julia rants...
02.16.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 2—The Song Remains The Same
In the aftermath of Joey and Dawson having sex, we get 30 minutes of them being happy before it all comes crashing down. Meanwhile, Jack, Audrey, and Pacey provide some comic relief in their search for an apartment, though we...
02.09.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 6, Episode 1—The Kids Are Alright
We're back! Thanks for being patient with us. But we're taking about everyone shipping out to Boston, why we love Jack and Pacey so damn much, how the music in the summer of 2002 was absolutely unreal, and I guess...
01.26.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 5 Wrap-Up
Today we're talking the end of season 5, what we are looking forward to in season 6, and the great pajamas of Jennifer Lindley. Join us for this deep dive into the 90s teen drama Dawson's Creek! Thank you so much to...
01.19.2022
Dawon's Critique Season 5, Episode 23—Swan Song
It's finally the finale of season 5! And we're at the airport in a post-9/11 world, which is a very weird place to be. But we're getting so many conversations we've been absolutely begging for all season and some of...
01.12.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 22—The Abby
We're on the penultimate episode of Season 5 and it's a real weird ride, y'all. Like again, we have people saying and doing stuff we've been begging for but they're saying and doing it about the wrong people. Gah! Also,...
01.05.2022
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 21—After Hours
We're here with this weird episode. Joey's trying to study in the library where everyone is acting a mess, but never goes to her room, where no one is. Pacey cheats on Audrey with Alex and all of these stories...
12.29.2021
Dawson's Critique—Happy New Year From Us To You
Happy new year, y'all! We will be back next week with full episode breakdowns but we wanted to talk about our New Year's resolutions or non-resolutions and tell you how grateful we are for you. Have a great and safe...
12.22.2021
Dawson's Critique. Season 5, Episode 20—Separate Ways (World's Apart)
Guys, what is even happening? We'd love the Joey storyline if it was with anyone but Charlie. We have no idea if Joey even knows that Dawson came to Florida. We're excited to see Sherilyn Fenn, but man, at what...
12.15.2021
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 19—100 LIght Years From Home
It's the 100th episode! And our 100th episode breakdown! And oof, guys, this is not a good episode. Joey is wilding out all over the place, Pacey, Audrey, and Jack get some meat to work with but the Joey/Dawson retrospective...
12.09.2021
REUPLOAD—Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 18—Cigarette Burns
THIS IS THE SAME EP THAT CAME OUT YESTERDAY. But some folks are having a hard time getting the replacement audio, so it's a reupload for them. Sorry again for the issues. Maybe 38 will be the year I get...
12.08.2021
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 18—Cigarette Burns
Y'all, somehow we had a ton to say about this episode because it's so frustrating. Jen and Dawson don't seem like they care that they just broke up, except for one scene. Joey and Charlie is a living nightmare that...
12.01.2021
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 17—Highway To Hell
Whew. It's a real mess this week. Joey is bailing on Lily's 1st birthday to go to some biker bar and sing with Charlie's band and we're glad that she actually expresses a desire, but man do we hate Charlie....
11.24.2021
Happy Thanksgiving From Dawson's Critique
Hey all! We wanted to wish you a happy Thanksgiving! We're saying what we are thankful for. We'll have a full episode breakdown for you next week. Happy Thanksgiving!
11.17.2021
Dawson's Critique Season 5, Episode 16—In A Lonely Place
Okay, we're in the aftermath of Joey's assault, but don't get too excited because almost no one even seems to care, including Joey herself. Everyone has nights out—Jen and Audrey, Jack and Pacey, Joey and Dawson—that change their perspectives and...
