The "Dawson's" kids won't be moving very far away from Capeside after graduation.

The teen soap will continue to film in Wilmington, N.C., which acts as the fictional setting of Capeside on the show, zap2it.com reports.

New episodes will show Joey, Dawson, and the rest of the characters returning home for breaks from their various post-graduation lives.

Some of the show's actors reportedly wanted to film the show in a larger city. "Dawson's Creek" producers had looked at Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, San Diego, Toronto, and Vancouver as possible options.

Each of the show's episodes costs approximately $1 million. Johnny Griffin, the regional film commission director, said moving filming of "Dawson's" from Wilmington would have had dramatic economic consequences for the town.
