Dawson gets slammed for being a spoiled entitled nice guy dick, and the Potter family steals the show. Jen is low, and Pacey is problematic.

The podcast with nothing much ado about aircrafts, and potentially everything ado with first episodes of a filmic series. Join us today as we cast judgement and determine if the late 90’s WB coming of age teen dramedy Dawson’s Creek will be hoisted, or not hoisted: that is the question!


Cheat Sheet:

Petard = bomb
Hoist a pilot = bad episode
Not hoist a pilot = good episode

Show Notes


{1:00} Episode Intro and Announcements: Mo is offically a co-hoister for Pilots and Petards Podcast. Drew tried to be Andy. How did that go? Review us on iTunes and you can pick one of our next shows! First reviewed, first served! Check our list of upcoming episodes.


{1:50} Background: Dawson’s Creek (DC) was picked by our reviewer and O.G. listener Rebecca. DC was the only show Rebecca ever watched religiously. She loved how real the characters were while being in the most ridiculous circumstances. She identified with Joey as always being the best friend and never the girlfriend. Rebecca wonders if everyone feels less than in high school because the popular students didn’t seem that way. Now she turns to PnP to get outsider views.


{4:02} Sixty Sec Summary:


{5:00} High Points: Dawson’s necklace; the dialogue and Mo’s nostalgia boner; and Ms. Hottie.


{16:05} Low Points: Dawson; Joey’s rowing; and Jen.


{32:55} Crabman Award: By unanimous decision, Bessie Potter.


{39:10} MVPs: By unanimous decision, Joey Potter.


{43:08} Dangling Threads: Student/teacher relationships; consent; and Rebecca’s question about high school.


{1:00:43} Watch or Rewatch: Mo would if she had more time. Drew is watching it probably right now with Tori. Jimbo nah.


{1:02:48} To Hoist or Not to Hoist?: unanimous not hoist.


{1:05:40} Petardar:

Superbad reps Jimbo’s young adulthood.
Drew recs the provacative Boy Toy.
Mo’s NoBo loves 90210.
