Berlanti has appeared in many interviews about the benefits of including a gay character in a primetime television show and showcasing the first same-sex kiss between two men on Dawson's Creek, Virginia. "In the beginning, there was resistance," the Hollywood reporter said. Everyone was suspicious when we did the Jack kiss on Dawson's Creek. However, I took over the show, and that was an important thing to me. When asked what he would have done if the network had said no to the kiss, Berlanti said, "I was going to leave." I was actually shocked."
