Chemistry is subjective, but the show also built up Pacey as the perfect boyfriend, and they even orchestrated a “Heart of a Hero” campaign for him. I think it all came down to Paul Stupin promoting “his” couple (Pacey and Joey) and destroying the previous couples (Dawson and Joey and Pacey and Andie) that were created by Kevin Williamson. Both Dawson and Andie were vilified to facilitate a Pacey and Joey paring, and Andie was eventually written off the show, which I always thought was so wrong and so unfair.

I will forever believe James requesting less screentime in season 6 allowed the Pacey/Joey revisit and added fuel for their stupid tacked on ending. I believe if James would have had a full load in season 6 we would have seen Dawson/Joey growing closer and closer and the series finale romantic ending would have fit like a glove. I believe the network tried to dumb down the character of Jen because Michelle Williams could run circles around Katie in the acting department. The irony is like you said, Michelle was the only one who is an accomplished, serious actress that is known for how amazingly talented she is. The network of course was clueless and didn't care about what they had with Michelle just like they couldn't have cared less what they had with high quality Everwood. |

I also shipped Jack/Kate, Lucas/Peyton. By the way, we are really having a blast on the OTH thread on the board if you want to check it out. There's some lively discussion going on. Yes, I can ship bad boys/bad girls too but the writing/storyline has to work. Would you consider Bellamy from The 100 a bad boy or he was one originally? I loved him from day one, faults and all and have adored Clarke/Bellamy from the start as well. |

When Pacey was with Joey, however, all the progress he had made was tossed aside and he barely was able to finish High School and he came very close to flunking out, but Joey was too self-obsessed to see that or to help him, and she even cruelly taunted him about not getting into any colleges at that dinner for prospective Worthington students. Pacey was basically miserable the entire time that he was with Joey, and with Pacey and Joey we got to see a romantic relationship which foundered on Pacey’s insecurities, Joey’s self obsession, and the constant presence of Dawson’s “ghost” in their relationship. We also saw every significant issue which could have affected their relationship conveniently swept under the rug for the obligatory 8:50 make up/make out scene, and we saw their relationship damaged by the lack of open and honest communication between them, and finally destroyed by Joey’s lies, and Pacey’s self loathing, which was a characteristic he never had with Andie. So to me, Joey ending up being the love of Pacey's life was a complete joke. __________________

Still... Andie so called cheating once while in such a delicate state (even Pacey understood Andie wasn't truly Andie then) while Joey, supposedly healthy mentally, emotionally cheating and lying to Pacey over and over and over again... which one was worse? Joey by a mile but Pacey/Joey fans deny it. |
