After Kevin Williamson made Dawson’s Creek, he had been convinced that his leading woman Joey (Katie Holmes) could wind up with her very best friend and”star-crossed buff,” Dawson Leery (James Van Der Beek). But that changed a bit over the span of six months — and finished with her picking Pacey (Joshua Jackson).
The manufacturer exited the series before returning to write the series finale. When he started writing the previous episode, which aired in 2003,” Williamson”was completely convinced it needed to finish with Dawson and Joey together,” he informed Entertainment Weekly at 2018. But, midway through composing, he could not sleep. “One thing was rubbing me the wrong way. To mepersonally, Dawson and Joey are soul mates. And I kept thinking, 1 thing I’ve discovered in my own life is my soul mate is not always my intimate love. I had been attempting to put this in place with Dawson and Joey professing their eternally to one another. And then we showed that she picked her amorous love, which was Pacey.”
The conclusion did not only upset many lovers , the authors’ room was not on precisely the exact same page .
“It was apparent to us that it had been and Dawson who’d end up together,” manufacturer Paul Stupin stated through a panel at 2015. “Halfway through, Kevin calls me and says,’I changed my head'”
The Scream author then quipped,”My mom hates me” before describing his rationale more. “This is not exactly what the series setup to be. Maybe that is where it began but it evolved and it ended up as something else. I wanted it to be a spin on the adolescent genre but also wanted it to be sudden, real and honest. … When you left the series in that last minute, they are a family and everybody got what they desired. There was pride plus they were happy.”
Joey and Dawson were merely one of several famous TV couples that did not wind up together when the finale aired.
Although many desired Milo Ventimiglia’s Jess to wind up with Rory (Alexis Bledel) — particularly after the celebrities briefly dated in real life — she finally ended up pregnant and single.
After coming up while she had been dating his very best buddy, Lyla (Minka Kelly) and Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) divide by the close of the collection. Rather, Tim and Tyra (Adrienne Palicki) were together in the finish.
Even with Dawson and Joey being soulmates, she finally chose poor boy Pacey — that Dawson had pushed her — at the end.
Robin and Barney (The Way I Met Your Mother)
Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) fell in love with Robin (Cobie Smulders) from the sitcom, regardless of the fact that his very best friend Ted (Josh Radnor) was in love with her. Despite the fact that Robin and Barney were temporarily married, they divide in the last year, and Ted returned into Robin’s apartment.
Even though Lucas (Chad Michael Murray) ended up happily ever after with Peyton (Hilarie Burton), there nevertheless was a massive audience that hoped he would wind up with Brooke (Sophia Bush) following their on-and-off relationship.
In the long run, Serena (Blake Lively) married woman Boy , Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley), but a lot of audiences had expected to watch her steamy love with Nate (Chace Crawford) continue.
It never was likely to continue, but Klaroline fans actually wanted more from the group, that had a one time steamy hookup from the forests. Klaus (Joseph Morgan) also promised Caroline (Candice King) he would be her final love.
Stelena buffs unite! Elena (Nina Dobrev) first dropped for Stefan (Paul Wesley), however it had been his brother, Damon (Ian Somerhalder), that she ended up when the series finished.
Diane (Shelley Long) and Sam (Ted Danson) announced their participation about the finale, just to end their connection minutes afterwards and go their different ways.
Even with Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Angel (David Boreanez) with the most powerful love of this series, the pair didn’t wind up together in the conclusion of Buffy. (Then he went to his spinoff,” Angel, and Buffy made a cameo twice.)
Actress Sarah Drew was equally as shocked as lovers when they opted to write her from Grey’s, particularly because they desired April to wind up using Jackson (Jesse Williams).
After Modern Family finished, Haley (Sarah Hyland), her husband, Dylan (Reid Ewing), along with their twins transferred out. Many expected her ex, Andy (Adam DeVine), could somehow wind up back in her life.
Angela and Shawn (Boy Meets World)
Regardless of Angela (Trina McGee) being an ideal fit for Shawn (Ryder Powerful ), the set weren’t endgame. Through an episode of the spinoff, Girl Meets World, Angela made a cameo, showing she had been wed.
Jake and Olivia (Scandal)
Team Jake or Fitz? This was the question during Scandal, but finally Olivia (Kerry Washington) and Jake (Scott Foley)’s end was a friendship.
Dylan and Brenda (Beverly Hills, 90210)
Although lovers constantly expected Brenda (Shannen Doherty) could find her way back to her first love, Dylan (Luke Perry), he finally picked Kelly (Jennie Garth).
