What was your favorite Jen episode?

Jen was my favorite character on Dc and how I got introduced to the extremely talented Michelle Williams.

I have so many favorite episodes of Jen, mainly because of Michelle's wit and charasma. Jen was such an underused character on the show and Michelle was an overlooked asset to the show as well.

Loved Michelle's performance in the series finale, it was stellar.

Jen has always been my favorite DC character and probably the main reason I kept watching the show. I always felt that the writers/show under-utalized Michelle's talent.

Some of my favorite Jen episodes/seasons were:

Eastern Standard Time because it gave us a look into her past and we really got a feel for the character. Michelle's acting in that episode was amazing. It was also great to see Jen and Joey have some bonding time in NY.

Season 3 because of the Jack/Jen dynamic. These two had so much chemistry and their scenes were so darn cute and funny. Both played off each other very well.

I am a huge fan of D/Jen so I enjoyed Season 1 and 5 because of their relationship.

Pacey and Jen's make-out sessions were so hilarious in Season 3. I also loved the friendship they held on to during the course of the show as well.

Series Finale because for me it gave Michelle the screen time and center stage that she so deserved. It is so sad that they had the character die. But I feel that Michelle did an extrodinary job and all her scenes with the rest of the cast from Jack to Amy were so truly heartbreaking and emotional. I never cried so much over a Tv show as I did then.

Jen was always great for her sense of humor and one liners..so I really enjoyed Guerilla Filmaking. There are so many scenes in that episode that were so funny. Jen's wit was right on the mark the entire hour.

I think that is it for now...

I always liked Jen...well except when she was hanging out with Abby. I liked her with Dawson. I thought they made a great couple. They complimented qualities of each other really well.
Jack and Jen I really liked too. They had a great friendship. If I hadn't of shipped D/Jen and Jack wasn't gay then they would have been the couple I'd ship!

i agree Brooke, D/Jen complimented each other very well.
Jen/Jack were great to watch also, really comedic together.

Jen was definitely all awesome character. I love how she was always friends with everyone and cared for everything around her. I really love Michelle's emotional performances when she played Jen

True, Jen was a friend to everyone on the show. She was always there for them to lend an ear or offer some advice. She always tried to help out her friends.

I really liked how Jen was a friend to everyone. She always tried to be there for the others when they needed a shoulder to cry on.

I cant see anyone playing Jen except for Michelle, dont think anyone else would have done the character justice.

Jen's message to Amy from the series finale:

Hi, Amy, it's mom. Well, by the time you see this, I won't be here anymore, and I know how much that sucks, for both of us. So seeing as how I won't be around to thoroughly annoy you, I thought I would give you a little list of the things that I wish for you. Well, there's the obvious. An education. Family. Friends. And a life that is full of the unexpected. Be sure to make mistakes. Make a lot of them, because there's no better way to learn and to grow, all right? And, um, I want you to spend a lot of time at the ocean, because the ocean forces you to dream, and I insist that you, my girl, be a dreamer. God. I've never really believed in god. In fact, I've spent a lot of time and energy trying to disprove that god exists. But I hope that you are able to believe in god, because the thing that I've come to realize, sweetheart... is that it just doesn't matter if god exists or not. The important thing is for you to believe in something, because I promise you that that belief will keep you warm at night, and I want you to feel safe always. And then there's love. I want you to love to the tips of your fingers, and when you find that love, wherever you find it, whoever you choose, don't run away from it. But you don't have to chase after it either. You just be patient, and it'll come to you, I promise, and when you least expect it, like you, like spending the best year of my life with the sweetest and the smartest and the most beautiful baby girl in the world. You don't be afraid, sweetheart. And remember, to love is to live.

IMA, Jen and Pacey were the best characters on that show, they always had the best advise for their friends and never turned their back on any of em, like some of the others did! Jen's character grew so much in that series from the pilot to the finale, it was amazing. LOve her!
