Mary, why must you taunt me like this!

― Carey (Carey), Friday, 28 November 2003 10:47 (twenty years ago) link

I know, it must super suck to be traveling throughout Europe and not have any access to the O.C. I hope you at least taped it?

― Mary (Mary), Sunday, 30 November 2003 03:08 (twenty years ago) link

one month passes...

I think this show jumped the shark last night, and you know it pains me to even use that phrase. But really: two, *two* Members Only jackets, gratuitous irony, over use of already played out on the web "young women like the Golden Girls" meme from like four months ago, and generic cheese faux indie band featuring a Coppola as the main "event". Even Mr. Slopey-Haired Oliver seems flown in from a John Hughes film. The solution to this is more stories about the adults (and I am probably only saying this because I am OLD).

I take it you're not a Roony fan then

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 9 January 2004 00:19 (twenty years ago) link

Who the fuck are Rooney? Is this an LA thing? AMG tells me they were formed last year and already have an album out on Geffen.

What is it you're all talking about again?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 00:24 (twenty years ago) link

@d@m will never be a REAL Californian

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Friday, 9 January 2004 00:26 (twenty years ago) link

I feel that last night requires me to have an opinion on Rooney in order to be cool but I cannot quite gather up the willpower to care

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Friday, 9 January 2004 00:27 (twenty years ago) link

@d@m will never be a REAL Californian

He is probably fortunate in this regard.

Who's the dark-haired boy with the choked-off voice that makes me want to pull my brains out? I guess you could call him my ultimate guilty pleasure because coming to the realization that I think he's hot has been one of the most frustrating things about my relationship with pop culture lately. God I hate to love him!!!

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 9 January 2004 00:57 (twenty years ago) link

you speak of Seth Cohen, Eric, he is the "secret boyfriend" of every girl I know. yet I hear the actor is as annoying as he seems.

Don't fucking talk about my boyfriend like that.

― Carey (Carey), Friday, 9 January 2004 01:03 (twenty years ago) link

God, his voice sounds more plugged up with his own self-satisfaction than John Mayer's! (I really really hate loving him.)

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 9 January 2004 01:05 (twenty years ago) link

It's like this: he's probably one of the only celeb dudes I find attractive that makes me feel like a straight girl for loving him, instead of a gay dude.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 9 January 2004 01:05 (twenty years ago) link

(uh... I mean... love ya, straight girls!)

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 9 January 2004 01:11 (twenty years ago) link

i think seth cohen is funny. and his mom is hot. peter gallagher was pissed off cuz he wanted to walk around wearing nothing but his eyebrows and smear bagels all over his wifes ass, but alas hot moms sister did not go out. Petey was pissed.

― Chris V (Chris V), Friday, 9 January 2004 12:31 (twenty years ago) link

Does anyone else think the prop department uses Gypsy Moths as Peteys eyebrows?

― Chris V (Chris V), Friday, 9 January 2004 14:00 (twenty years ago) link

Ha! The bagel fixation was interesting. I've sort of forgotten about Peter Gallagher's eyebrows (to the extent that it's possible) because of his character.

I think Seth Cohen rocks.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:17 (twenty years ago) link

I like Peter Gallagher when he takes a chainsaw to all the furniture in Short Cuts.

Am I to understand that he is now among the cast of a popular television program? What is it called?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:19 (twenty years ago) link

see thread title

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:21 (twenty years ago) link

I'm still not sure I follow.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:25 (twenty years ago) link

the show is called the OC! and it's great!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:32 (twenty years ago) link

*shrugs in incomprehension*

Somebody should start a thread about it.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:34 (twenty years ago) link

(I'm kidding s1ocki - I just keep missing it, so I have to exaggerate my ignorance of it in order to cement over my obvious disappointment)

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:36 (twenty years ago) link

How about the scenes from the next episode where Oliver like, loses his shit?! Oh the dra-mamama!! I can't not watch this show. And wtf is up with the jock now being a "regular" dude?? Seth Cohen's cool with me, even though there's a fucking reference to Death Cab for Cutie in every goddamn episode.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:40 (twenty years ago) link

(and I would happily bone his TV mom.)

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 9 January 2004 20:40 (twenty years ago) link

i saw Tate Donavan (Jimmy Cooper, Marissa's dad) just last week when i was in NYC

i also saw Vincent Gallo and Chris Noth (Mr. Big from Sex and the City)

― JaXoN (JasonD), Friday, 9 January 2004 21:42 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah the show is overflowing with MILFs. I can't wait for Gilmore Girls to rerun the Dave scenes with Adam Brody.

― Carey (Carey), Friday, 9 January 2004 22:22 (twenty years ago) link

i have yet to see "l'o.c." posters here, sadly

― amateur!st (amateurist), Saturday, 10 January 2004 17:51 (twenty years ago) link

I like Peter Gallagher when he takes a chainsaw to all the furniture in Short Cuts.

That was Peter Gallagher? How he has fallen.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 12 January 2004 08:45 (twenty years ago) link

this show is crack.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 02:57 (twenty years ago) link

seriously, it made me so happy tonight, you don't even know.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 04:19 (twenty years ago) link

I want to kill Oliver what an annoying little fuck. Luke = Ian Ziering

― Chris V (Chris V), Thursday, 15 January 2004 13:09 (twenty years ago) link

Chino needs to dump Marissa, aside from a nice pair of shoulder blades she now has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Thursday, 15 January 2004 18:54 (twenty years ago) link

marissa and that creepy eddie haskell fuck deserve each other. like i said, the young ladies on the show are total duds! it makes me want to weep when i think of poor, sweet, adorable seth saddled with a shrill bottle-blond who has no idea how to wear plaid. it really does.

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 15 January 2004 18:58 (twenty years ago) link

So what's the deal with Oliver? He has some dark secret that we don't know about, right? And he's transferring to the OC high school. I hope Ryan gives him a big frickin beatdown. And dude, seeing Seth in old-man pajamas was more annoying than either those chicks.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Thursday, 15 January 2004 19:51 (twenty years ago) link

Luke = Ian Ziering
YES. Scary YES, at that.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Thursday, 15 January 2004 19:55 (twenty years ago) link

four weeks pass...

ok this show is going to jump the shark as soon as Luke bangs Marissa's mother. And why oh why didn't they shoot Oliver.

― Chris V (Chris V), Thursday, 12 February 2004 15:26 (twenty years ago) link

Cohens mom is looking hotter and hotter every show. I'd like to redecorate her office if you know what i mean....

― Chris V (Chris V), Thursday, 12 February 2004 15:31 (twenty years ago) link

I was surprised that this thread wasn't revived yet.

They handled the Mrs. Robinsonesque plotline better than I expected (I was thinking it was going to jump the shark too). But Luke is such a fucking idiot. That whole thing with Marisa's mom is dumb.

And Seth got some! His conversation with Ryan about it cracked me up. Fish sex!

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 19 February 2004 20:47 (twenty years ago) link

i don't want to talk about the fish sex. i'm still angry that seth is with that tramp.

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 19 February 2004 22:12 (twenty years ago) link

what you saying?!??!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 19 February 2004 22:12 (twenty years ago) link

I like how Seth threw on a vinyl copy of Ryan Adams covering Oasis. Why buy Ryan Adams on vinyl? Or cd for that matter. I seriously thought it was one of the best episodes i've seen so far though. I really wish Sandy was my father, he's a funny.

― Chris V (Chris V), Friday, 20 February 2004 12:28 (twenty years ago) link

NOT EXACTLY MY THING but I think my venemous gonowhere thread was mainly cos the main guy looks a LOT like the Guardian guy

― Silly Sailor (Andrew Thames), Friday, 20 February 2004 12:41 (twenty years ago) link

One Tree Hill catching up on the O.C.

These two shows always get mixed up in my mind anyway. They should do some sort of cross-thing, like Seth goes to N.C. and hooks up with Peynton. Too bad they're not on the same network.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 20:20 (twenty years ago) link

Actually, I am most confused by the similarity of the two ditzy brunette, best-friend side kicks who end up stealing the affection of the leading men:

some fun facts: the role of ryan on the o.c. was first offered to chad michael murray, who passed to be lucas on one tree hill because he thought it was more well-written. also, the role of solid, working-class uncle keith on the latter show is played by craig sheffer, who many years ago was the rich kid villain hardy jenns in some kind of wonderful.
brooke is terrible, but perhaps not quite as irritating as summer.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 23:13 (twenty years ago) link

what the heck is one tree hill?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 23:20 (twenty years ago) link

An abomination. Just take my word for it.

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 23:20 (twenty years ago) link

is it a good abomination?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 25 February 2004 23:37 (twenty years ago) link
