Joshua Jackson Surprised by ‘Dawson’s Creek’ Intro on 2024 Emmys: ‘Ah Yes, This Song’
Joshua Jackson was surprised to be introduced by the 'Dawson's Creek' theme song on the 2024 Emmys. "Ah yes, this song!"
You’d think Joshua Jackson would be used to hearing Paula Cole ‘s “I Don’t Want to Wait” by now, after the 1997 song opened his teen drama series Dawson’s Creek for six seasons on WB in the late ’90s and early 2000s. It was an appropriate song for the moment because Jackson and Bomer were presenting Greg Berlanti with the Emmys’ Governors Award for his work in bringing LGBTQ+ representation to network television, including the first romantic gay male kiss on Dawson’s Creek in 2000. Berlanti’s first TV writing job was on Dawson’s Creek and he graduated to executive producer in season 3, overseeing the storylines of Jackson’s Pacey Whitters and the rest of the Capeside, Massachusetts, gang.
