On the other hand it was refreshing to play someone else," she said in 2004.[3] Holmes confirmed that, equally frequently happens on soaps, the character was a caricature of the actor:
I miss her spirit, and her spunk, and I miss her anxiety. She ever had these long speeches almost her fears and her future and love. It was a great tool for me personally because I got to get it all out. I was able to psychoanalyze all of it everyday [sic?] with her and and so I wouldn't accept to practice it on my own. So much of me is in Joey and information technology really felt similar I grew up on telly.[four]

Her Flavour iii arc with Pacey is often praised in pop culture. Jezebel said "their screwball dynamic, coupled with actors Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson's untapped chemical science and an intricately plotted courtship subverted everything expected of the show.
