We are ready for our closeups Creeps because this week we ARE “His Leading Lady” (Original airdate February 3rd, 1999. Written by Darin Goldberg and Shelley Meals and directed by David Semel). We get object lessons in bad behavior from manic pixie dream girl in training Devon (aka RACHEL LEE COOK) going full method on Josephine, to Jawson wallowing in his breakup by forcing everyone he knows to help him make a movie about it, to a man trapping a hungry and unwilling woman at bible study, and even Saint Pacey ignoring pleas for space in order to engage in some light breaking and entering.
If you want to learn from our impeccable behavior, follow us on twitter (@dawsons_creeps) and instagram (@dawsonscreeps). Need a soundtrack for your demented heartbreak reenactment film? Might I suggest our Spotify playlist Dawson’s Creeps - Do You Want to Dance Tomorrow? Join us next week when I pray Abby Morgan will be back to spice up the Creek!

Roses are red / Mr. Peterson is so dumb / but Creeps there is NOTHING gay / about this poem. We watched “To Be or Not to Be...” (Original airdate February 10th, 1999. Written by Kevin Williamson and Greg Berlanti and directed by Sandy Smolan).This is a doozy! Get ready for a crash course in 90’s misunderstandings about sexuality and for a Pacey so beautiful and just that your horniness may tear your whole life apart.
