From the Dawson's Creek Wikipedia page:
Dawson's Creek generated a high amount of publicity before its debut, with several television critics and consumer watchdog groups expressing concerns about its anticipated "racy" plots and dialogue. The controversy drove one of the original production companies away from the project.[7][12] John Kiesewetter, television columnist for The Cincinnati Enquirer wrote, "As much as I want to love the show—the cool kids, charming New England setting, and stunning cinematography—I can't get past the consuming preoccupation with sex, sex, sex."[12] In his defense, Williamson denied this was his intention, stating that "I never set out to make something provocative and racy".[12] Syndicated columnist John Leo said the show should be called "When Parents Cringe," and went on to write "The first episode contains a good deal of chatter about breasts, genitalia, masturbation, and penis size. Then the title and credits come on and the story begins." Tom Shales, of The Washington Post commented that creator Kevin Williamson was "the most overrated wunderkind in Hollywood" and "what he's brilliant at is pandering." The Parents Television Council proclaimed the show the single worst program of the 1997–98 and 1998-99 seasons by being "the crudest of the network shows aimed at kids." They explained the series contains "an almost obsessive focus on pre-marital sexual activity" with a lot of references to topics of pornography and condoms and also criticized teen self-identification with homosexuality which is given a thumbs-up."[13] The Council also cited it as the fourth worst show in 2000–2001.[14] Former UPN President Lucie Salhany criticized WB for airing Dawson's Creek which features "adolescent characters in adult situations" in an early timeslot while the network is supposed to be "the family network".[15] However, on the opposite end of the ideological spectrum, the National Organization for Women offered an endorsement, deeming it one of the least sexually exploitative shows on the air.

bytches loved Pacey:yeshrug:

I agree with peeps saying the first season is the best. It had the Halloween episode and the breakfast club rip off episode and I think the whole Pacey banging the dope teacher plot iirc.

I never really finished the series I remember the stupid storylines though half of it was unneccesary

Dawson was such a p*ssy for not getting at Michelle Williams' character sooner. Shorty was throwing herself at him hardcore & he was hung up on the ladder-climbing, boring bytch, Joey.

Show went downhill to me after they killed Dawson's girlfriend, the gay dude's sister.

And the vocabulary used in that script, specifically by Joey, was fukkin stupid.
