It is not new, but still fun and informative.

TBH it's more about Pacey for me anyway. He just makes the perfect boyfriend.

This shot is from the first takes of DC Pilot before the re-shoots. Pacey's hair is so much better here.

Joshua Jackson isn't sure whether 'Dawson's Creek' should've handled its controversial student-teacher sex storyline differently

https://www.insider.com/joshua-jacks...ionship-2021-7



Quote:
The most controversial storyline on "Dawson's Creek" might be when a teenage Pacey Witter (Joshua Jackson) dates and loses his virginity to his English teacher, but Jackson doesn't necessarily think the show handled it the wrong way.

While discussing his role on the new true-crime series "Dr. Death" with Insider, Jackson reflected on his "Dawson's Creek" character's problematic season-one relationship.

"I think it is real for a younger person to have sexual desires for an older person," he said when asked about his character Pacey's romance with his much-older English teacher, Tamara Jacobs (played by Leann Hunley).

"But I think the onus remains upon the older person to be the adult and recognize that that's inappropriate," the "Dr. Death" star added.

Jackson played Pacey on the hit WB drama, which also starred James Van Der Beek, Michelle Williams, and Katie Holmes, thoughout its entire run from 1998 to 2003. On the first season of "Dawson's Creek," 15-year-old Pacey becomes romantically attracted to his 36-year-old teacher and pursues her. He eventually has sex with Tamara, losing his virginity to her.

However, word of Pacey's exploits soon makes it around town, and Ms. Jacobs is forced to leave town after ending things with Pacey.

The storyline was heavily criticized both at the time of airing and in retrospect.

According to Jackson, the bigger issue is that there's a "double standard" that still exists when discussing the sexuality of teenagers.

"It's been many years since I've been a teenager, but it strikes there's a lot more sex positivity in the conversation for young people now, which I think is great," he told Insider. "I think we've moved forward significantly and in a healthy way, but we still treat teenage female sexuality very differently than we teach or treat male teenage sexuality."

Jackson also said he "wasn't sure" whether or not "Dawson's Creek" should have handled Pacey's romantic pursuit of his teacher differently.

"Do I think that the show should have judged it differently? Maybe, because it's part and parcel of that double standard," the actor said.

But on the other hand, Jackson explained, "I think it's necessary to show storylines that have humans making mistakes. I don't think we presented it as a beautiful or romantic thing."

"Dawson's Creek" creator Kevin Williamson, for his part, told the Hollywood Reporter in 2018 that he didn't have any regrets about the student-teacher relationship, though he admitted they got "a lot of criticism" for that storyline at the time and he "probably would not have it in the story" if he was writing the show today.

"I wouldn't change it because it served its purpose and it was based on a storyline from my own childhood," Williamson said.

Wow, I can't believe the age of Tamara during that storyline is 36 cause that's how old I am now lol. That just makes it even more disturbing and disgusting, cause you would never see me seduce and mess around with a teenager in high school. Like he said, as the older person you have the responsibility to know better. Your clearly taking advantage of the child! I just don't get the point of it all, they could of given Pacey a better and less nasty first relationship. I find it disturbing and disgusting, I always will *shudders*

It is strange to think about Pacey and Tamara now. I had like that storyline - well enough anyway - but now that I am older, it really is a lot more disturbing.
