Dawson's Creek is about four teenagers growing up in Capeside, a small Massachusetts town. The main character is Dawson (played by James van der Beek), a 15-year-old whose character was modeled after the coming-of-age experiences of Kevin Williamson (I Know What You Did Last Summer), the show's writer. Dawson's best friends are Joey (played by Katie Holmes), and Pacey (played by Joshua Jackson). Jen (played by Michelle Williams) is the new girl in town who attracts Dawson's attention. The show is on every Tuesday at 9:00 on the WB. For more information about each character, go back to the main page.
