User blog:ARTaylor/20 Years of Dawson's Creek

Today marks the twentieth anniversary of the premiere of Dawson's Creek. The film follows a group of friends in the fictional Capeside, Massachusetts, centered around New York City transplant Dawson Leery, as they go through high school and college. The series was part of a craze for teenage-themed movies and series in the 1990s and lasted one-hundred twenty-eight episodes across six seasons. It drew criticisms for its racy dialogue and themes, which catapulted the show to fame and launched the careers of most of the actors involved.

The series featured the talents of Jennifer Morrison as Melanie Shea Thompson, Virginia Madsen as Maddy, and Jane Lynch as Mrs. Witter.
