'Californication' Creator Tom Kapinos Shoots Down 'Dawson's Creek' Days

June 4, 2009

The drama on Dawson's Creek didn't just overflow from television screens at the time, but it also occurred behind the scenes.  Tom Kapinos, who is best known for his latest work on Showtime's Californication, discussed his horrid past on the hit 90s show.

Kapinos was at an LA Times Envelope Emmy screenwriting series panel when he talked about his days on Dawson's Creek.  He was supposed to speak about his new series starring David Duchovny, when he pointed out that his previous work was practically the inspiration for Californication.

'Gossip Girl' Aftergasm: What Happens When a High School Drama Goes to College?

January 20, 2009

College admissions time—it's a stressful time for any high school senior. It's also a time when you're forced to make choices that will change the course of your entire life. On last night's episode, “You've Got Yale,” Blair, Serena and Dan all grapple with big anxieties about the changes that go along with college: Blair's got a case of Senioritis (and a tad of an entitlement issue) that threaten her dead-set hopes on Yale, Serena tries to decide which Ivy is the best fit for her, and she and Dan both worry about how choosing different colleges will affect—or possibly end—their relationship.

Joshua Jackson Wants 'Fringe' to be the Next 'X-Files'

December 9, 2008

Fringe has often been compared to shows such as The X-Files, Altered States, The Twilight Zone and Dark Angel, but cast member Joshua Jackson thinks that this is a little more than a lazy reference. The sci-fi series, which details the exploits of FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham, scientist Walter Bishop, and his son Peter as they investigate aspects of fringe science, is “trying to be a hybrid of a few different things,” according to the 30-year-old actor.  On the other hand, Jackson hopes Fringe will eventually be used as a reference point when the next large sci-fi series debuts.

'Dawson's Creek' Alum Heading to 'One Tree Hill'

October 16, 2008

It seems that everyone of a certain age has an unexplainable affection for the stars of the late, arguably great teen drama Dawson's Creek.  I shook my head in disbelief when Katie Holmes married Tom Cruise, cheered when Michelle Williams earned an Oscar nomination for Brokeback Mountain, and tuned into shows like Fringe and Justice just to see stars from the Creek try something new.  Unfortunately, Dawson himself, James Van Der Beek, hasn't had much luck shaking his teen idol image.  He's had memorable guest-starring stints on How I Met Your Mother and Criminal Minds, as well as a great turn on the big screen in The Rules of Attraction, but aside from that the Beek has been MIA.

Van Der Beek may never be able to shake the Dawson image, so why not embrace it?  Entertainment Weekly has announced that the actor will be returning to his teen drama roots with an appearance on One Tree Hill later this season.

The WB is Resurrected Online

August 28, 2008

I love the CW for bringing me Gossip Girl and for having the guts to resurrect 90210, but there's no denying that the network pales in comparison to the glory days of the WB.  For those of us who were teenagers in the '90s the WB was a truly special network.  They brought us such classic shows as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Dawson's Creek, Gilmore Girls and Felicity, and such charmingly forgettable fare as Blue Collar TV, The Mountain, Tarzan and Black Sash.  It's hard not to feel affection for that bygone era, even if it did produce atrocities like 7th Heaven.

The WB may no longer exist on television, but it's currently enjoying a resurrection on the Internet.  TheWB.com launched yesterday and features full episodes of many of the shows mentioned above, as well as games, a blog, desktop wallpapers and some original web series.
