"go blind"

LaToya JaXoN (JasonD), Friday, 25 February 2005 18:46 (nineteen years ago) link

This week was actually good. Characters with personality, closing up pointless storylines, humor! Punk-grrl stops being a caricature and starts to approach being a real person (and they've dumped some of her truckload of makeup and the harsh lighting).

Maybe the writers finally noticed that this season was going badly and decided to change things.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Monday, 28 February 2005 07:11 (nineteen years ago) link

I was very amused that out of the "The O.C." soundtrack cds (three so far!), there are a number of bands that some friends follow. In fact, it could be argued that there's a significant subset of bands between their record collections and what's played on the show. There was some article in the NY Times where the show creator/writer guy gave some tips on what new albums to watch out for.

I really want to pretend to be the amazon recommendations by going to their apartment, looking at their music, and recommending "The O.C. Season 1" on dvd.

two weeks pass...
sweater vests and white t-shirts are not a good combo

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 18 March 2005 20:29 (nineteen years ago) link

dude, it's getting so painful to watch.

The JaXoN 5 (JasonD), Friday, 18 March 2005 21:16 (nineteen years ago) link

A fluke good episode a couple of weeks ago and then back downhill. The Alex-Marissa breakup was terrible, Seth is just annoying. Ryan getting excited about the possibility of fighting a grrl was funny, though. Julie Cooper does porn - also good.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 18 March 2005 21:41 (nineteen years ago) link

the julie cooper porn this is the only good thing this year. that woman is so porny looking anyway that when she tells caleb he should be all "uh, yeah, DUH" about it.

kyle (akmonday), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:09 (nineteen years ago) link

I watched about half of it for the first time ever. Great show. Futureheads, Pixies, Husker Du etc etc Mischa Barton etc What's not to like?

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:10 (nineteen years ago) link

all the break-ups on this show are so forgiving. the dumpee is always like, yes, "go be with that other guy because you belong together. i'm not sad because it's more important that there be true love." this show needs more bitterness.

crly, Friday, 18 March 2005 22:12 (nineteen years ago) link

What's not to like?

Mischa Barton

kyle (akmonday), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:14 (nineteen years ago) link

She is incredibly beautiful and seems charming.

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:16 (nineteen years ago) link

my friend just said she couldn't act her way out of Chino

BWHAHAHA

The JaXoN 5 (JasonD), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:34 (nineteen years ago) link

she has been quoted as saying the worst, most awfully bitchy things over the past year though.

I find her a repulsive stack of bones. I think if they reveal that she is really a DEAD GIRL at the end of the season, all will be redeemed.

kyle (akmonday), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:48 (nineteen years ago) link

this show should just be seth and summer shooting one liners back and forth for an hour and abandon all pretense of plot. or, kill all the kids and make it about peter gallagher and kiki.

kyle (akmonday), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:50 (nineteen years ago) link

I'll miss Alex. WTF is up with Ryan's hair?? There's so damn much of it.

Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:50 (nineteen years ago) link

dude has a chino mullet

The JaXoN 5 (JasonD), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:54 (nineteen years ago) link

I saw Mischa Barton at a party last weekend, she is anything but a repulsive stack of bones - you're just going to have to trust me on this one: she is HOTTT.

I also think Peter Gallagher should have played Patrick Bateman 12 years ago.

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 18 March 2005 23:08 (nineteen years ago) link

Mischa Barton was actually kind of hottt in last night's episode. She didn't look as bony and angular as usual. Still completely wooden, though.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Saturday, 19 March 2005 00:00 (nineteen years ago) link

five months pass...
Season premier tonight. Does anyone give a shit?

*crickets* ƒur¥ (Je4nne Fury), Thursday, 8 September 2005 16:55 (eighteen years ago) link

I totally give a shit. mmm, escapism.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 8 September 2005 19:10 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm hoping it's an improvement on last season, so I'll give it a few episodes.

But if it sucks, my teen-TV loyalties are going to "Supernatural" on the WB.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Thursday, 8 September 2005 19:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Emma and I will be watching this with eagerness, and popcorn. We'll probably have to rewind it when my wife gets home, and start all over again, and that will be okay. I LUV YOU RACHEL BILSON.

The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Thursday, 8 September 2005 20:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Also: The Sports Guy talks wih The O.C. Guy today, and there are some good previews and insights and stuffz.

The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Thursday, 8 September 2005 20:14 (eighteen years ago) link

FUCKIN' CLASSIC, ive been re-watching season 1 - soooo good

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Thursday, 8 September 2005 20:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Too bad S2 was soooo bad.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Thursday, 8 September 2005 20:29 (eighteen years ago) link

I think maybe I was too hard on Marissa's lesbian love, the season got even worse after they wrapped that up.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Thursday, 8 September 2005 20:31 (eighteen years ago) link

I like that Amateurist started this thread.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 8 September 2005 21:15 (eighteen years ago) link

heeeeyahhh i love the OC! its all pretty n glittery n shit.

sunny successor (he hates my guts, we had a fight) (katharine), Thursday, 8 September 2005 22:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Bill Simmons makes my eyes bleed.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:01 (eighteen years ago) link

trey did the right thing. julie is still evil. summer is still hotttttt. all is right with the world.

Haikunym (Haikunym), Friday, 9 September 2005 00:17 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't like it when they make Julie really-really evil. She's better running a stupid magazine and joking about lesbian flings. Mildly evil.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 9 September 2005 00:19 (eighteen years ago) link

This was the most anti-climactic season opener of any show ever!

nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 9 September 2005 11:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Although I'm looking forward to Mrs. Eyebrows' blonde-on-blonde recovering alcoholic lesbian makeouts with that actress woman whose politician husband got in all that trouble for dirty stuff.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 9 September 2005 11:23 (eighteen years ago) link

con: x-post - no shit. bad boy, apparently not angry some chick put a bullet in him despite history of hissy fits triggered by the smallest events, writes written confession and conveniently leaves town. still buttoning shirt as he boards bus to vegas. law officials blindly accept written confession witnessed only by attempted murder suspect. good job! the down side? no princeton for richest girl in newport. what the fuck does she need princeton for??

pro: marissa looked flat out fox in that candy striper get up.

future notes: less boats, more cap'n oats.

sunny successor (he hates my guts, we had a fight) (katharine), Friday, 9 September 2005 12:03 (eighteen years ago) link

The best part was when Julie was like "I'm a grieving widow, here" and the lady looked over at Jimmy and was all "uh HUH".

nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 9 September 2005 12:06 (eighteen years ago) link

dude, that was a man!

sunny successor (he hates my guts, we had a fight) (katharine), Friday, 9 September 2005 22:58 (eighteen years ago) link

Oooh, season of the evil Aryans. Are they all going to a public school now or will the couples split up? Or will they find out that Aryan Dean is boinking a student (Taylor?) and bust him?

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 16 September 2005 01:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I love all the new Evil!
I hope they do home schooling. In the pool house.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 16 September 2005 01:21 (eighteen years ago) link

i gave up watching once marissa played the black keys in one of her 10am morning alchohol fits....

Lupton Pitman (Chris V), Friday, 16 September 2005 08:54 (eighteen years ago) link

I hope jocks start picking on Cohen again now that Ryan's not around.

alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Friday, 16 September 2005 12:17 (eighteen years ago) link

oh it's knives out on cohen...and on summer too, for all her past indiscretions before she turned "nice and indie." great plot twist!

The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Friday, 16 September 2005 12:31 (eighteen years ago) link

aw, marissa's a woman.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 23 September 2005 04:23 (eighteen years ago) link

Who was that covering "Baby Blue"?

Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Friday, 23 September 2005 05:14 (eighteen years ago) link

The Aryan Dean is so busted.

Has ILE abandoned the OC? Do we not find Julie Cooper's poverty compelling? Ryan dropping out to work in the man's world (again) compelling? Where's the love people?

This season's shaping up good. The only dud is the Jeri Ryan scam subplot, but everything else is working (not enough Sandy, of course), and I figure Ryan dropping out will be resolved as soon as the Aryan Dean is caught mid-nookie with his jailbait.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Friday, 30 September 2005 04:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, almost all the episodes in Season 3 so far have been better than anything in Season 2.

I don't think there was much ILE love for the O.C. in the first place.

alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Friday, 30 September 2005 11:20 (eighteen years ago) link

well, i missed last week but im assuming the following happened: julie found out caleb was broke, jimmy made a run for it, kirsten came home, marissa and ryan got booted from private school.

im not loving this whole rehab scam buisness at all. id be more interested in a kirsten relapse. is everyone in the OC going to be poor now? i like looking at pretty things. although julie looked hot collapsing on the seedy motel bed wearing two double strand diamond tennis bracelets + leaking crazy eyes.

i dont know about the whole freaks and geeks direction marissa is taking either. summer w/ white and pink flowers in her hair had better save the day, but not before marissa cures all the public school kids hate with an under the sea themed dance.

sunny successor (he hates my guts, we had a fight) (katharine), Friday, 30 September 2005 16:37 (eighteen years ago) link

BASEBALL?? WTF!

sunny successor (he hates my guts, we had a fight) (katharine), Thursday, 6 October 2005 23:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Criminal Minds?? WTF.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 6 October 2005 23:17 (eighteen years ago) link

two months pass...
I'm iced in and there's nothing on TV, so I finally watched an episode of One Tree Hill - it's good! At least as good as the average OC episode. And the wannabe fashion-designer girl has a Descendents record in her vinyl stack.
