Product Description
From Amazon.com
The fourth season of Dawson's Creek is dominated by two themes. The first is senior year at Capeside High, as high achievers Joey (Katie Holmes) and Andie (Meredith Monroe) have as much pressure to deal with as low achiever Pacey (Joshua Jackson). The second is the constant love triangle following Joey and Pacey's return from their summer of bliss, threatening to destroy anyone's chance of having a healthy, functional relationship. Pacey's insecurity doesn't let him believe he's actually the lucky one, even as he proves with his actions that he deserves it. Fortunately for Dawson (James Van Der Beek), he finds a sympathetic ear in Pacey's older sister, Gretchen (Sasha Alexander), though he also has to enter an "indentured servitude" relationship with an old curmudgeon (Harve Presnell). Joey takes a job waiting tables at the yacht club, where she has to deal with the heir apparent to Abby Morgan's evil shoes, Drue Valentine (Mark Matkevitch), who also turns out to have a shadowy history with one of the friends. Meanwhile Andie and Jack (Kerr Smith) coach a youth soccer team, and Jen (Michelle Williams), having suddenly lost her boyfriend from season 3, cements her best-friendship with Jack and drags him to a gay coalition group where he spars with the activist leader (David Monahan). Look for cameos by Andy Griffith as a retired movie actor and by frequent soundtrack contributor Mary Beth Maziarz as a club singer.
Toward the end of the season, Dawson asks, "Is it just me, or did things get suddenly bigger in the last year?" It's true that as the characters have grown up--even Dawson, sort of--situations turn more serious, whether it's an afternoon sail on the cape or a rave that leads to the abrupt departure of one of the regular cast. After a prom from hell, the final phase is the graduation ceremony, and for Dawson's Creek it marked the end of an era, which the characters themselves felt deeply in the season-closing "Coda." The series would run for two more years, but it would never be the same again.
As with previous DVD sets, the background music has been changed significantly, including replacing the Paula Cole theme song. On the bright side, some of the linchpin songs--Shawn Colvin's "Blue Like That," Eva Cassidy's "Fields of Gold," Sarah McLachlan's "I Will Remember You"--have been preserved. Executive producer Paul Stupin contributes his usual (and increasingly unnecessary) commentary on two episodes, joined on the second by a "mystery guest," consulting producer Alan Cross. --David Horiuchi

Good season, few things I didn't remember from the time I watched it on TV. Be careful, no English subtitles.

Sad Ending,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dawson's Creek : Season 4 (DVD)
I find that this season was the second best of all the seasons. Third will always be my favorite but this is still very good. The writing and twists are phenominal however I find there was way to much emphasis on the Gretchen relationship, but I suppose they needed something to keep him busy. The music changes are horrible however. I don't know what's going on with Paul Stupin but the theme song change has ruined the whole theme scene. I can't believe they would do this to the DVD owners who really appreciate Dawson's Creek for what it is. Same with the first episode, the last scene with Pacey and Joey, the song was This Year's Love by David Gray and they replaced it with some pitiful song which changes the entire effect. I was solely disapointed with the music, however the season is great, especially A Winter's Tale and Graduation. It was slow at parts, especially towards the end of the season yet still great. Seperation Anxiety makes me cry everytime I see it.

What can I say,,
By Donald (Burnaby, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dawson's Creek : Season 4 (DVD)
It's Dawson's Creek, you either love it or hate it. The second half of the series is just not as memorable as the first three seasons, but they develop and grow with new twists and plots which is why we stick around... of course the inevitable question who will Joey pick... however we all know that already, but since we love this show we just wanna watch the reruns over and over again haha. My only question is, when will Paula Cole's theme song come back?? I was disappointed they stuck with Run Like Mad for season four, but hopefully, really, I Don't Wanna Wait will come back for season five.
