‘Dawson’s Creek’ and 5 Other TV Shows From The WB Streaming on Netflix and Hulu Right Now

Prior to merging with UPN and forming The CW, The WB gave us some of our favorite TV shows. In fact, we still watch many shows that aired on the network when we’re feeling particularly nostalgic. Keep reading to discover programs from The WB that found their way to Netflix and Hulu, including Dawson’s Creek. 

‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’

Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) battles vampires and other evil forces in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The program debuted in March 1997 and ran for 7 seasons before audiences said goodbye to Buffy in 2003.

The WB’s first major hit show, the series still has a large, devoted following decades after it first premiered.

‘Dawson’s Creek’

One of the most popular teen dramas of the ‘90s and early 2000s, Dawson’s Creek introduced the world to the characters of Dawson Leery (James Van Der Beek) and his friends, Joey Potter (Katie Holmes) and Pacey Witter (Joshua Jackson).

The three characters gave us one of the most popular TV love triangles of the day that still remains a hot topic among fans all these years later. Premiering in 1998, Dawson’s Creek ran for six seasons before ending in 2003. Michelle Williams, Busy Philipps, and Kerr Smith also starred in the series.

Gilmore Girls gave us one of our favorite fictional mother-daughter duos, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory (Alexis Bledel) Gilmore. Created by Amy Sherman-Palladino, Gilmore Girls became known for its fast-talking characters and pop culture references.
