In this special bonus episode of All2ReelToo, we pay tribute to the late James Van Der Beek, who sadly passed away at just 48. To celebrate his legacy, we rewind to where it all began — the unforgettable pilot of Dawson's Creek. Welcome to the picturesque coastal town of Capeside, Massachusetts — where movie dreams, first loves, and complicated friendships collide. At the center is aspiring filmmaker Dawson Leery (Van Der Beek), a 15-year-old cinephile scripting his own coming-of-age story alongside his lifelong best friends: the fiercely loyal Joey Potter and class clown with hidden depth, Pacey Witter. But life imitates drama when sophisticated New York transplant Jen Lindley moves in next door, instantly captivating Dawson and stirring unexpected jealousy in Joey. As friendships are tested during a tense movie night, sparks also fly elsewhere — Pacey finds himself drawn to the mysterious Tamara Jacobs… who just happens to be the new English teacher at Capeside High. Add in Dawson's rejection from the school's film class, and suddenly sophomore year is shaping up to be anything but ordinary. We break down the iconic moments, the unforgettable ‘90s vibes, and the performances that launched careers — including: Michelle Williams as Jen Lindley Joshua Jackson as Pacey Witter Katie Holmes as Joey Potter Mary-Margaret Humes as Gale Leery John Wesley Shipp as Mitch Leery Mary Beth Peil as Evelyn Ryan Nina Repeta as Bessie Potter With memorable supporting turns by Leann Hunley as Tamara Jacobs and others who helped shape the world of Capeside. Join us as we revisit the pilot that defined a generation, launched careers, and gave us one of television's most heartfelt teen dramas.
