The next old school series to cop a reboot might just be iconic nineties / noughties show Dawson’s Creek, according to several members of the cast.

The revelation comes via John Wesley Shipp and Mary-Margaret Humes who recently had a bitch about not being invited to feature in Entertainment Weekly’s March 2018 reunion cover.
“I did take it a little more personally [than John] because there was all this talk about a possible reunion,” Humes told Us Weekly. “Because I’d been doing all of this on Instagram, which I — just a couple months before, I felt like I was helping to make a reunion happen. Not a photo shoot, but actually bring the show back by revisiting what it was like.”

“She’s the one that keeps in touch with the kids, I keep in touch with the kids through her. It’s kind of like a stereotypical marriage,” Shipp added. “You have to realize that that was the role that [she] fulfilled in the company and on the set. She was the glue that kept everybody going out together. She had the boat, making sure that everyone was taken care of, doing the footage. Giving the parties when people had birthdays.”
Following the cover reveal, the Hallmark star took to Instagram to share that she and Shipp were upset that they weren’t invited but loved everyone involved in the show; Shipp also posted about the incident, photoshopping Humes and himself into the reunion photo.
Despite being super offended, however, Humes believes it led to something positive: Reunion talk.
“I’m glad I spoke out, because Katie [Holmes] called me, James [Van Der Beek] called me, Kerr [Smith] called me, Kevin [Williamson] texted me, Julie Plectexted me,” she told the publication. “It reunited us, and now there is actual talk about, secret talk, like, ‘Maybe we should do this.’ So, fingers crossed. I don’t know anything more than anybody else, but there has been a group text going around saying, ‘Maybe it’s time.’”
I leave you now with the show’s theme song which seems very apt after reading this story, doesn’t it?
