just watched the pilot episode. so funny with joey attacking jen about her hair colour and outing dawson as a virgin to embarass him. naughty joey!! Grin

BigHairyFlowers · 20/05/2012 22:08

Ooh I just thought of another favourite Pacey moment - when Andie's mum is in the shop, Andie is trying to coax her home and Pacey takes her basket and says 'Would you make me a sandwich Mrs McPhee?'

Tangointhenight · 20/05/2012 22:14

Remember the rave episode too??? I fekkin hated Andie, she was unworthy of Paceys hotness and cheated on him like WTF???

The wall!!!!!! How could I have forgotten the wall?!? 'Ask me to stay'

Tizzylizzy · 20/05/2012 22:37

My husband looks like Pacey (not an accident).

IAmBooybilee · 20/05/2012 22:47

Shock tizzy!

so not fair- i dont even have a husband never mind one that looks like pacey! Grin

Tizzylizzy · 20/05/2012 22:57

Your Pacey is out there IAm :)

Tangointhenight · 20/05/2012 23:03

I fancied a fella in school, was the spitting image of Pacey, he didn't reciprocate :-(

So I settled for a man who looks nothing like Pacey

IAmBooybilee · 20/05/2012 23:24

and i reckon joey stuffed in those early days!

Bumdrop · 20/05/2012 23:37

lovely medley of joey and pacey moments ... awww !

I am watching the boxset with my soon to be 11 year old DD. We've just watched the locked in the supermarket one - one of my favs as well as the Aunt Gwen/daydream believer one. Still have a girl crush on Katie Holmes Blush.

Have already watched My So Called Life with DD, just had to skip one episode where Jordan Catalano was pressuring Angela for sex.

I think both Angela and Joey are pretty good role models for DD - am I seriously deluded?

IAmBooybilee · 20/05/2012 23:57

i have boys. do you think they'll want to watch through the boxset with me when they get to their early teens? i would love to do that with them.

i vagely remember my so called life but i think i was alot younger when it was on and dont remember anything about it.

any other great teen shows i might remember?

pickledsiblings · 21/05/2012 00:07

Those are the two greats for me Booybilee. My eldest DS is 8 and he wants to know when he can watch DC with mummy.

So who do we think is the best role model for boys, Pacey or Dawson?

IAmBooybilee · 21/05/2012 00:15

hmm good question. i reckon mitch leery's a pretty good role model WRT what a father's role is.

not sure about dawson or pacey.

pickledsiblings · 21/05/2012 00:26

Angela's parents in My So Called Life were a hoot! You should watch it; I got the box set for £5 from play.com.

Tangointhenight · 21/05/2012 06:43

Wasn't Angela full to the.brim of teenage angst?? Lol, both my brothers loved Dawsons Creek as teenagers lol!

Bumdrop · 21/05/2012 06:50

I guess Dawson is the better role model but ....

pacey is way cooler !!

pickledsiblings · 21/05/2012 08:14

Tango, Angela was very angsty but she maintained a great relationship with her mother throughout it all and she was always able to admit to her mistakes and apologise.

WhispersOfWickedness · 21/05/2012 10:07

Envy at Tizzy's DH. Mine looks more like Mr Witter Senior, but with no hair Hmm
He does think I look like Joey though Grin

Tangointhenight · 21/05/2012 10:28

Ok that's it I'm buying my so called life box set now...right now!!!

£5.49 Shock I've just ordered it too :o

WaitingForMe · 21/05/2012 20:56

I watched the entire lot a couple of years ago and thought nobody could still be as obsessed as me.

I fancied JJ in the Mighty Ducks and was hugely impressed when I then discovered DC. I'm the same age as the characters so could still marry JJ.

Ignores wedding ring and pregnancy bump

IAmBooybilee · 21/05/2012 21:52
