So, yeah, I'm done with these people.  (Sorry, Pacey.)  In this convoluted Dana Baratta story, Joey informs us that people act weird during a full moon, but it's not the weirdness that gets to me, it's the annoyingness, like Dawson's parents fighting in earshot of him, their guests, and Abby, who's upstairs in Dawson's room spying on neighbor Jen with Vincent.  Jen's date coincides with Pacey & Andie's first date, where he discovers that her mother can't accept her oldest brother's death; and with Joey whining at work until Jack is so charmed he has to kiss her.  And Dawson continues to be self-absorbed.

I can, oddly enough, see why this show was such a big hit among turn-of-recent-century teens, but it's too uneven for me to enjoy even as a guilty pleasure.
