Thanks Ally!

I just think they wrote Pacey in a more relateable and likable way. Not to menton he pretty much was the romantic hero of the show so most of the women were going to gravitate and swoon over him. Can't discount Joshua's talent and charm either.

True. Man, I soooo remember wishing for my own Pacey when I watched the series a long time ago

Quote:

I don't think most people really hate or love a character just because they're the main character or the underdog. If Pacey had been the main character, I still don't see him being disliked by a huge portion of the audience. It's really all about the writing.

My problem is the main character is written in this annoying fashion where its obvious the writers intent is to give them everything so I see nothing rootable about it. Had Pacey been a main character but written the same way he is now, I don't think he'd be hated either. It's not about who has the most or least airtime but if there is no real struggle for the main character then what's the point in hoping for them?

I'll see if I can find it.

Okay

Yeah I really couldn't connect with Dawson at all. What was his inner struggle btw? I think I blocked most of it out lol. Trying to be a director?
With Pacey, I really related to his insecurities and belief that he would never amount to anything in life. Plus he was just...the ideal guy, man! Look at all the beautiful things he said and did <3

What about movie pairs?
