Should I watch this show?

I've been interested in watching this for some time, but I remember watching part of the pilot last year and not really liking it all too much.

If it helps, other teen dramas I love include Dawson's Creek, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, My So-Called Life, Freaks and Geeks, One Tree Hill, etc. I also LOVE Neve Campbell (Scream is my favorite movie), like Matthew Fox (I love Lost), Lacey Chabert, and Jennifer Love Hewitt.

So, is it like the other shows I listed? Would I enjoy it?

NOTHING can beat Lost, hehehe. I love PO5, though season one through four were (IMO) the best of the bunch. A family of children trying to continue to live together after their parents die in a car crash. You don't witness the crash, the series starts off a short time later. The pilot and first season start off a little slow and by the second and third season they really hit their groove. Matthew is superb in this series, he doesn't beat Jack Shephard... how can he? But all teasing aside, Fox and the others make for a very enjoyable 'night-time soap opera'. Everyone but the young Owen are fantastic and have wonderful story arcs throughout.

It's an ok show. Dawson's creek is way better. I'm on season 5 and am not sure it's been worth the investment but I want to finish.
