CLASSIC DAWSON'S CREEK:
JACK COMES OUT
TBS, Tuesday, April 7, 10 a.m.
To prep for the May 14 Series Finale, TBS has began airing 4 Classic Dawson's Creek episodes every weekday morning, from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m., including a rare re-broadcast of The Jack (Kerr Smith) Coming Out Episode on Tuesday morning, April 7.
Jack's cold, long-absent dad returns amid rumors of his son's alleged homosexuality. While Joey turns to Dawson with her own doubts about Jack, Ty shocks Jen with his anti-gay beliefs, causing her to reconsider their relationship. But for Jack, the moment of truth comes when his Dad tries to gloss over the McPhees' painful past, prompting Jack to confront his father about Andie's depression, their Mom's mental illness and his own deepest secret. Meanwhile, new episodes of Dawson air every Wednesday night on The WB at 8 p.m.
Sigh: what will become of Jack and boyfriend David (Greg Rikaart)?
In one upcoming episode, Jack and David will deal with the insecurities in their relationship while attending a counseling center benefit with special guests Dr. Drew and Adam Carolla!
