Need someone to share the joy, pain, and shoulder pads of your Dawson's Creek, Melrose Place and Beverly Hills, 90210 rewatches? Tara Ariano and Sarah D. Bunting, co-founders of Television Without Pity, are here for you!

Again With This: Dawson's, Melrose, 90210

Felicity Porter (Keri Russell) is at her commencement, realizing she’s not as happy about the life her parents have mapped out for her: doing all her schooling at Stanford to become a doctor, exactly like her dad. So when she bravely asks her crush, Ben (Scott Speedman) to become the second person to sign her senior yearbook and finds out he’s going to “New York” for college, she finds her acceptance letter to the same school and decides to enroll there too. When she runs into him again on campus in the fall, his reaction is her first sign that her impulsive decision isn’t going to pan out exactly the way she might have hoped when she made it. We’re telling you all about everyone she meets — and how she frames it to her audio cassette tape pen pal Sally — in our episode on the Felicity pilot!

15: FEL S01.E01: Pilot

We’re off this week but we bring you three Again With Again With This episodes from the club vault.

AWAWT 253: Let’s Watch Joshua Jackson In Cruel Intentions!

How to reinvent Les Liaisons Dangereuses for the late 20th century Youthquake moment? Set it among Upper East Side high school brats, and throw in a couple of stars from The WB!

AWAWT 254: Let’s Watch Robin Dunne In Cruel Intentions 2!

A TV iteration of Cruel Intentions, Manchester Prep, was planned for FOX’s 1999-2000 primetime schedule…until Rupert Murdoch (allegedly) had the project sacked for being too crass (!), at which time it was reworked as a prequel, Cruel Intentions 2, and everything about it is…number two: the casting, the timeline, the geography, the wardrobe, and Robin “AJ” Dunne as Valmont makes Ryan Phillippe look like Jon Hamm. This is possibly the crappiest show-verse property we’ve ever contemplated, and we’re talking about that, plus early TWoP days, Some Kind Of Wonderful, and “frisky twins” (ew). Listen now!

AWAWT 255: Let’s Watch Kerr Smith In Cruel Intentions 3!

So it’s come to this: a Cruel Intentions sequel with none of the original talent attached. (Not even poor old Pierre Choderlos de Laclos gets a credit!) After Kathryn has ruined the family with her antics in New York, her cousin Cassidy is forced to lie low at a college in Santa Barbara, where she and her frenemy and sparring partner Jason (Kerr Smith!) simply can’t stop betting on sex. How does this entry slyly cross over with both American Psycho and Sex & The City? We’ll tell you everything important! …Which admittedly isn’t much.

14: Special: Let's Watch The Cruel Intentions Trilogy!

After Joey found Audrey unconscious at the end of the previous episode, she got in touch with the Liddells offscreen, and arrangements have been made for Audrey to enter a rehab program in the Los Angeles area. Except, whoops, no one thought this person deep in substance misuse disorder might pretend to head for the airport, then actually find a karaoke bar, bring a guy named Bob (Seth Rogen!) back to a local hotel room, and hide out. Since Eddie has decided to try to enroll in that writers’ workshop and, conveniently, drive himself across the country that very night, Joey volunteers him to drive Audrey too — something Audrey only agrees to if they also bring Bob. Since Joey learned nothing from this flight risk the first time, predictable mayhem ensues. Dawson is way out over his skis on reshoots, enduring open disrespect from his DP and Natasha and threats from Heather (whose fault this is, honestly). And when Grams clashes with an entirely offscreen Mr. Smalls, Jen decides the answer is to set her up with CJ’s widowed Uncle Bill (Geoffrey Lewis! …You’ll know him when you see him). Look waaaaaay down for our latest episode: we’ve struck Rock! Bottom!!!

13: DC S06.E13: Rock Bottom

Following her sheepish west coast reunion with Dawson, Audrey returns to Boston. Smoothing things over is pretty easy with MOST of her friends, but Emma and the other Hell’s Belles need more convincing, especially with a gig opening for Loudermilk just hours away. Audrey convinces Emma to give her another chance, and probably really believes all her promises about turning over a new leaf when she makes them! Spending more time with Joey convinces Harley that she has to intervene between her and Eddie, but credit to her: the crazy caper she comes up with to get him back to Hell’s Kitchen actually does work…briefly. And Pacey dares to attend another party with Rinaldi: it seems like Pacey’s frictionless rise through the ranks at the brokerage is continuing, though a Mystery Girl (Sarah Shahi!) observing him warns him to be on his guard. There’s no wrong way to enjoy our episode on “All The Right Moves”!

12: DC S06.E12: All The Right Moves

We’re following the teens of Dawson’s Creek through each day of a particularly eventful week. Joey, back at school after the holidays, is leaving dozens of messages for Eddie that are going unreturned, and she’s not the only one looking for him: Harley’s back, too. Jen has finally been worn down on volunteering at The Stand, and she must really be committed if she’s letting CJ train her at this stage in their relationship; meanwhile, David and Jack are taking the Big Step of getting tested for STIs together. Dawson and Todd return to L.A., where the latter is not quite ready to receive fearless feedback from studio executive Larry Newman (Paul Gleason!). And when Pacey runs into Emma there, the aquarium becomes the site for the two to get to know each other much better than ever before. Today is the day for our episode on “Day Out Of Days”!

11: DC S06.E11: Day Out Of Days

It’s the holidays, but not the peace on earth/goodwill to men kind. Joey weirds Eddie out by inviting him back to Capeside, which he declines, opening the door for Joey to make the same invitation to Audrey after Audrey drunkenly misses her flight back to Los Angeles. Pacey can’t wait to drive his new Beemer up to the Witter house and rub his family’s collective nose in all his financial success. Dawson decides to continue ignoring his hurt over Natasha’s possible infidelity by inviting her to Capeside…and Todd also comes, possibly just so there’s someone to hit on Gale? Too bad for Jack spending his holiday offscreen with the McPhees we never see anymore: he missed a lot of Merry Mayhem, but you shouldn’t — listen to our episode all about it now!

10: DC S06.E10: Merry Mayhem

Finals are almost over, but the universe is punishing Joey by scheduling Hetson’s after nearly everyone else is done, and she can’t find a quiet place to study. Eddie’s offer to borrow his apartment while he’s at work is both generous and maybe a little strategic, since they do end up fooling around in a naked way that’s so tiring Joey falls back to sleep and misses most of the exam. As we all know, academic desperation typically doesn’t bring out her best, but…just kidding, she’s terrible this time too. Todd’s movie has its own “Drew Barrymore in Scream“-type cameo artist: a movie star named Max Winter who is working with Spielberg next. Dawson gets way too jealous about it, possibly with just cause. Pacey’s boiler room is having a holiday party, so he invites Emma to come and even insists on buying her a new dress to wear for the occasion! There’s just one little thing about this particular party that he probably should have made sure to tell her before she showed up for it. Let’s all come together for our episode on “Everything Put Together Falls Apart”!

9: DC S06.E09: Everything Put Together Falls Apart

Before Todd got into the flop movie business, he was a very well regarded music video director, which is how he knows No Doubt; that they are keeping tabs on him enough to give him like a dozen comps is kind of a surprise, but sure, why the hell not. Dawson gives them to Jen to distribute. Joey and Eddie get a pair, Eddie discovering while Joey hard-sells him that she expects their first date to be a hang with all her friends, one of whom was kicking glass at him not very long ago. Jack and David get a pair, and David’s good old friend CJ also gets one after Jen literally runs into him in the record store and can’t sense the palpable tension between him and Audrey. And Pacey gets one because Jen thinks if he and Audrey just got back into proximity with each other, they’d work out all their issues. Some people forget their tickets; others misread them; shocking secrets are revealed…and we’re telling you all about it in our Hella Good new episode!

8: DC S06.E08: Spiderwebs

As we know, Audrey is not doing so great. But since she’s being louder and crazier than ever before instead of talking to anyone about it, no one can quite tell exactly what’s going on until she starts pounding shots ahead of her latest Hell’s Belles gig and getting nasty to Eddie while Joey stands by uselessly. Actually, one person can tell what’s going on: CJ, and this is the episode where we find out why. Freeman announces to the class that his new book has earned him a guest lecturer gig in Chicago, but before he goes, he has a bunch of things he’d like to not quite say to Jack. When Pacey and the rest of the aspiring stockbrokers pass their Series 7 exams, Rinaldi takes them all on a whirlwind trip to New Orleans to be disgusting in a whole other time zone. Grab your passport for our episode on “Ego Tripping At The Gates Of Hell”!

7: DC S06.E07: Ego Tripping At The Gates Of Hell

It’s Halloween, and what do you know: the stage where Todd’s shooting his movie has spooooooky lore. Never mind that this is clearly all taking place in a warehouse that was MAYBE built in the mid-70s: a flash of an old screen test in some of Todd’s dailies leads him and Natasha to tell Dawson the story of Melanie Ray, a 50s movie star whose co-star husband found out she was having an affair with her director and strangled her to death on camera. “That sucks,” says Dawson, and probably regrets his understatement when he starts seeing someone who looks a lot like Melanie flitting around the stage, eluding his attempts to chase her down. Is it just a costume party guest paying tribute to the late Melanie, or her actual ghost?! Speaking of the costume party: Pacey and Audrey also attend, dressed as Sid and Nancy, but the camaraderie of a couples costume can’t paper over the widening cracks in their relationship. Also present but almost entirely in their own silo are Jack and Jen, the former convincing the latter to invite CJ. When he shows up with a friend Jen immediately decides is not just gay but CJ’s boyfriend, Jack hatches a plan for them to split the two up and figure out their deal, but ends up wishing he hadn’t. Joey negotiates Eddie’s re-admission to Hetson’s class by agreeing to babysit his daughter that night, assuming she’s the 5-year-old in the photo on his desk. In fact, she’s a crabby teenager who’s not happy Hetson’s dumped her on a stranger so he can go on a date instead of honoring their Halloween tradition and taking her to a scary movie. Once she meets Eddie, she manipulates him into glomming on to their plans, but if you remember how similar plans went when Brandon Walsh and Emily Valentine weren’t quite a couple yet but still ended up looking after a kid on Halloween…well, things take a similar turn here. Two living girls have brought you an episode on “Living Dead Girl”: listen!
