That could splinter Imgurians, who are otherwise united by a homescreen that shows identical top-rated content to everyone, unlike the fractured and personalized landing pages of most social networks. That could change as Imgur plans on equipping users with new editing tools to help them turn generic clips into weird and wacky stuff people love to upvote.
Hopefully future editing tools will let people add custom subtitles, stickers, interjected titling screens and more. Those will be crucial to keep video from making Imgur generic.

And we then just started chatting offline. But over time, I sort of fell in love with the fact that they had this kind of heightened language that was their own, but their emotions and all of the things that they were going through still made them very much teenagers.
That tension, you know, I really liked. They just all sounded like characters on a TV show. They were very hyperverbal. That became the charm of the show and what people liked about it; that it was this heightened reality.
That was annoying to me at the time, but ultimately, Dawson was a problem. Dawson was just such a pill. And he had been so good to me and had really kick-started my entire career. So I did it. Possibly so that we would shut the fuck up and let them go back to talking like normal people.
But possibly because they thought it would be a good idea, which it turned out to be. It did well enough in its first year that, after that, we went back and added a bunch of other shows.
And Dawson was our flagship show. This must be nice! And it also seemed to be oblivious to what it actually did do well. I give it credit: It learned. It developed an intelligence about itself. And crying Dawson is Exhibit A. The TV show that the WB had built its brand around just two years earlier was now in danger of cancellation.
So I was the only remaining writer from previous seasons that was on the staff at the top of season three. I assumed this was just TV. I went off to make a movie, and I came back, and the network was making some changes to the folks that were above me, who I quite liked. And then we also hit a wall with this storyline where Pacey and Jen were going to embark on a casual fuck-buddy relationship.
I guess somewhere around episode eight, the network flipped out. Especially that season. We had a production shutdown around Thanksgiving.
Bunting, cofounder of Television Without Pity: It seemed as though, perhaps because Kevin Williamson had left, the rest of the team maybe felt a little bit freer to let the show become what it wanted to become. Which was not a show about Dawson. But the heart wants what it wants, and that can complicate things. Tara Ariano, cofounder of Television Without Pity: Pacey was obviously the better character and always had been.
And the two of those actors were like magic to watch. I said I would do it if they let me have an actual gay kiss between two characters. That had never happened on network TV before. And the network agreed to that. So after that, I felt like it was worth it. And also we need to end a lot of the other storylines and stuff. But it was really connecting with the audience. But the ratings started to grow again. The actors were happy, and everybody was excited. I think we found what the show would be without Kevin there.
If you have set everything up correctly, it should be falling into place like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Bunting, cofounder of Television Without Pity: It was, in a strange way, fanservice. Because that whole season, leading up to crying Dawson, you could kind of sense that Dawson was going to get a cartoon skillet in the face.
With the Joey-Pacey-Dawson love triangle in place, the show approached its season three endgame: the moment when Dawson would have to tell Joey to go to Pacey. But in context, they were incredibly satisfying.
And on the boards of Television Without Pity, they were the payoff for three seasons of mounting hatred toward Dawson and everything he stood for. By the time we got to the end of the season, Greg, Tom, Gina, and me — I think we had really, really good improv jazz. We were making beautiful music in the room. We traded off on scenes.
