    Attractive as well as articulate, all these high schoolers qualify for some sort of advanced placement. They're easy to watch, just a little hard to believe.

    Dawson's Creek needs less cleverness and more emotional spark. As the 16-year-old in my house said after watching three episodes, 'It's like My So-Called Life without the life.'
