Today we're deep diving the Dawson's Creek pilot episode and discussing the live reunion show.
"Your emerging hormones aren't developing a thang for me, are they?"
Jillian went to the Dawson's Creek Class Reunion in New York where the cast performed a live reading of the show's pilot episode! She tells all about the event, gushes over Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson, and reviews Lin-Manuel Miranda's performance stepping in for James Van Der Beek.
Then teen TV fangirl Jillian got her husband Tyler to watch the first episode of Dawson's Creek. They discuss Joey Potter's locker room talk, Pacey Witter and the inappropriate teacher Tamara, Dawson's movie obsession, Michelle Williams, Steven Spielberg, and Tyler tries to predict where the show is going.
