Wingster

Start!

Touldengal

Thanks for starting!!

One of the reasons why Joey bothered me quite often was because of how easily upset she would get at people, even when she had absolutely no reason to be.

I agree...she needed to make her mind! One day she is bed having sleep over with Dawson then tell Pacey she has always loved him!

Wingster

she always complained about people judging her or looking down...when she was equally guilty of it.

Touldengal

yeah, she just did it in a different way. if she didnt like someone's decisions, she would judge them!

She judged people a lot because of her own insecurities. She was pretty vicious with Jen in season 1. And with Eve to a lesser extent, but she did kind of joke about her being a ho and a bimbo to Dawson She even took some time to warm up to Audrey, and that was perhaps partly because of all the guys Audrey would have over at the beginning of season 5

I always mention this, but this is the perfect thread to do so.
I cannot stand the fact that Joey went out with Charlie after what he did to Jen. I think it is one of worst things she has done on this show.

Wingster

really she never treated Jen like a real friend...everyone else did but not her.

She also treated who ever she was with (mainly Dawson and Pacey) like crap.

Touldengal

The way she treated Jen was awful throughout the entire series.
In season 1, it didn't bother me as much because she was 15 and this new girl came into town and turned her life upside down.
Then in season 2, I gotta admit that Jen had things coming as it relates to Joey and how she treated her
but from then on, it's been sort of fake.
I think it was in Future Tense when Joey was drunk and said something like "we aren't really friends." That was mean! Jen was so good to Joey, especially after what happened at the end of S3, but Joey was only her friend when it was convenient.

Wingster

er...how did Jen treat Joey badly in s2?

Touldengal

by going after her boyfriend?

FrellingTralk

She was trying to seduce Dawson back in the early season 2 episodes, saying she knows he's with Joey but she doesn't "respect that" and he has other options

Wingster

maybe...but even after she stopped and Joey broke up with Dawson, Joey still treated Jen horrribly...

Ali

That's the main thing for me... how the writers loved to pit her against Jen. There was so much potential for a wonderful friendship there. I mean, their few friendly scenes are some of my favorites from the series. But Joey didn't start (consistently) treating Jen with respect until like, S6. Sad.

Touldengal

definitely agree with that. i just meant that jen did her share of wrong doings that season to Joey.. doesn't excuse joey's behaviour towards her in the rest of the series though.
