maybe a little.
But, man, it really is boring this season. I have fully gotten up and made dinner/cleaned the apt/otherwise occupied myself during every single episode. Yet, obviously, I have managed to see every one. It's because of hope, hope for the old O.C. ways.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 13 December 2005 19:32 (eighteen years ago) link

i dont mind this season at all although i wish theyd hurry up with a marissa makes out with/drunkenly boffs/falls in love with seth plotline. everyones a little too comfortable in their relationships for my liking.

sunny successor (katharine), Tuesday, 13 December 2005 19:35 (eighteen years ago) link

The constant Ryan/Marissa friction has gotten old.

haha

i just read that anna is coming back to the show! whatever i get for christmas nothing will be better than this news. she was always my favorite charachter and i had such a crush on her. that good bye scene in the airport with seth was so heartbraking(really).

Lovelace (Lovelace), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 18:53 (eighteen years ago) link

so my big return to the OC was for the chrismukkah episode... and it SUCKED!

s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:14 (eighteen years ago) link

johnny needs to die...

i can't believe marissa is falling for that "i just wanna be friends with you" thing for the THIRD time in THREE seasons (oliver, trey, johnny)

alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:21 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah it did suck. marissa looked hot though and julie in trailer park mode is fantastic, so that helped.
you could see the ryan in white knight mode tears off from a big richie rich to do scene coming from a mile or 10 away. why is it all these primetime teen soaps have all these gorgeous people in them but the lead guy is always so-so. ryan, dawson etc. i dont get it. is he the one were supposed to 'relate' to?

sunny successor (katharine), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 19:29 (eighteen years ago) link

oh and my god! that last scene with all the arms and the swaying! WTF?!?

four weeks pass...
ho-hum ep last night. still, i guess we know how the writers are getting Seth out of going to Brown.

when are marissa and seth going to drunkenly boff so ryan has an excuse to go steal a car in chino and summer gets to be bad girl again?

i still dont get what happened with the AA chick and with the reappearance and disappearance of marissa's dad.

if mischa barton wasn't so delightful to look at and the julie character didnt rule, i might have abandoned this show at the beginning of the season.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 20 January 2006 15:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I thought yesterday's ep was almost a return to form! But, yeah, not quite there - but Caitlyn (is that Marissa's sister's name?) looks promising as a character. They should've kept on with the Summer's Dad + Bitchy Mom dating and extended the money-stealing bit - which would also mean more Julie Cooper-Nichol! I guess they have something figured out for "drama" for the rest of the season? Maybe Marissa's dad will come back again once Julie's with Summer's dad and happy? I'd be fine if they all went off to university and most of the show took place in the summer and during breaks, hey why not.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 20 January 2006 16:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Pot smoking! Someone's going to a state university...

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 27 January 2006 02:56 (eighteen years ago) link

everytime i see julie cooper-nichol, i think julie copper nickel.

maria tessa sciarrino (theoreticalgirl), Friday, 27 January 2006 03:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Me too! It always pleases me when julie finds another rich guy.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 27 January 2006 05:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Is it bad that the first thing I thought when Johnny fell to his death was 'Woah! That operation sure was a waste of money.'?
I'm glad Julie finally scored Richie Rich. The whole invisible Gus schtick was getting beyond lame.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 3 February 2006 04:07 (eighteen years ago) link

aw man they turned the TVs off at the YMCA right before the end of the episode... did he really die?!?! dang!

killy (baby lenin pin), Friday, 3 February 2006 04:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, he fell anyway. Who knows if he's actually dead, Marissa shot Trey through the heart and he was up and about in a few months.

reddening (reddening), Friday, 3 February 2006 11:21 (eighteen years ago) link

you heard that tequila bottle smash on the rocks, man! plus all the teary, no makeup, fetal position marissa scenes in the promo for next week and OMG! she doesnt want to do anything for valentines day! he must be dead! either way, that operation was a waste of non-jewish fake bar miztvah money, goddammit!

OC forecast:

i can feel a seth + marissa romp-a-roo on the horizon. marissa and whathisface are on thin ice as it is. now johnny is deadybones (probably), marissa will boohoo for an episode and whathisface will try to help but, man, he cant understand her pain! meanwhile, seth is getting high all the time and summer thinks thats 'ew'. chance meeting between seth and marissa on the pier = sex on the beach and more teen angst than you can shake a surfboard at.


OC wish scene:

johnny's mom blames OC crew for johnny's demise and subsequently gets all stabby with an uninvolved character. probably kirsten.


Two Questions:

how many eps left?

have ryan and marissa, or for that matter seth and summer, had sex since the first season? what the hell?

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 3 February 2006 14:49 (eighteen years ago) link

i haven't watched this show in awhile, and i tried to watch it last night. let me get this straight: Seth was having a drug problem with weed?!?

JD from CDepot, Friday, 3 February 2006 15:09 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah. hes smoked it three times now and hes already managed to fuck up his college career and alienate his girlfriend and parents. i hate to think what would happen if he dropped acid.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 3 February 2006 15:17 (eighteen years ago) link

next thing you know he'll be rubbing his pecker on peter gallaghers eyebrows.

slow jamz and white guy indie acoustic shit (Chris V), Friday, 3 February 2006 15:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, I think that some of the writers must've quit or just gotten bored or into coke&hollywood or something. I can think of several simple ways the pot issue could've been dealt with in a more entertaining (second-season) way. This show has lost its pacing really, and I'm kind of sad about it.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 3 February 2006 15:46 (eighteen years ago) link

i haven't been watching this all season but i caught the last 15 minutes of last night's ep and it was pretty good!!

i'm glad they got rid of glum surfer dude!!

seth cohen was not a convincing stoner!!

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 3 February 2006 16:52 (eighteen years ago) link

really. zero paranoia.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 3 February 2006 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

hed be a much better coke addict

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 3 February 2006 19:20 (eighteen years ago) link

that's what I said! All his 'weed symptoms' looked a helluva lot more like coke to me. Talking non-stop, jittery, a little pasty/sweaty.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 3 February 2006 20:49 (eighteen years ago) link

I just bought the season one, i am enjoying but progressively less so as it goes on. I still think i will buy season two.

jeffrey (johnson), Friday, 3 February 2006 21:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Season 2 seemed bad at the time, but it was definitely more interesting than this season. I look back fondly on Marissa's days of Sappho and cheap beer.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 3 February 2006 22:13 (eighteen years ago) link

those new characters in season 2 were such duds

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 3 February 2006 22:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Nowhere near as dud as the surfer and his pals.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 3 February 2006 23:30 (eighteen years ago) link

I miss the whole comic book thing. And Ryan being into architecture. And they haven't gone to see a band in ages. And the clothes lately have been boring too. c'mon, TV, do better at being TV.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 3 February 2006 23:42 (eighteen years ago) link

did you guys notice the "I'm not listening to them anymore" comment with regards to death cab for cutie after they played them on the valley(the fictional tv show that the oc characthers watch). surely that was them poking fun at people who say those kind of things when after their favorite indie bands play on the oc.

and i'm getting so fucking tired of ryan and marissa constantly having fights, and they're always so stupid! i really want them to be happy together :)

johnny's cousin is hot!

Lovelace (Lovelace), Sunday, 12 February 2006 00:52 (eighteen years ago) link

I think they should spend less time making self-conscious pokes at their position in the pop-culture landscape and more time writing plots and characters that don't suck.

It was great how all the parents didn't seem too concerned that their children had watched a boy fall off a cliff to his death.

reddening (reddening), Sunday, 12 February 2006 03:15 (eighteen years ago) link

And how quickly Ryan was ready to get it on. Marissa was OTM for the first time ever with the "You're glad he's dead! And now you're horny!" line - which just sent Ryan into the arms of the hot artsy girl. With any luck they'll stick to the path of trashiness, I'm tired of all the po-faced stuff lately.

I'm glad the Marissa's younger sister is gone - how did no one comment on the creep-factor of the high-school senior surfer making out with a 14-year old?

I think the woman from Serenity has gotten a nose job or just lost a bunch of weight, neither of which was a good decision.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Sunday, 12 February 2006 05:01 (eighteen years ago) link

The path of trashiness is the only way forward for this show. I will gladly walk down that tv path.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Sunday, 12 February 2006 06:24 (eighteen years ago) link

no OC for at least 3 weeks? what the hell??

sunny successor (katharine), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:45 (eighteen years ago) link

two weeks pass...
ryan and marissa finally broke up - THANK GOD.

i find that boy that is stalking marissa oddly appealing. he looks like a tiger cub or something.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 10 March 2006 16:08 (eighteen years ago) link

They cast him well - he just looks dislikable. Sadie's definitely a step up from Marissa, but you know that it's going to come back to some kind of Ryan/Marissa drama in the end.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 10 March 2006 22:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Ryan/Marissa drama is so dumb - there has never been a spark, only brooding and eck. okay okay, and as silly as this show is, I think it does show some interesting teenage-like relationship developments - mostly in how Ryan gets along with girls - it's kind of different that.

Marissa totally deserves to get hot and heavy with tiger-cub guy who's already lamenting his lost youth at 19. They can be all Drama Together.

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 10 March 2006 22:28 (eighteen years ago) link

IS OLIVER BACK YET???? Does Seth still talk about DEATH CAB??? Yeah, I havent watched this since the first season.

gunther heartymeal (keckles), Friday, 10 March 2006 22:45 (eighteen years ago) link

what happened in the promo for next weeks episode?

Lovelace (Lovelace), Saturday, 11 March 2006 20:33 (eighteen years ago) link

How is this doing in the ratings? It still seems popular but is no longer the "hot" show that everyone seemed to watch.

Cunga (Cunga), Saturday, 11 March 2006 21:46 (eighteen years ago) link

7.44 million people tuned in, which is pretty crap when you consider that it came on right after American Idol BUT it is an improvement for this season though cause the ratings have been around 5 million until the last episode.

Lovelace (Lovelace), Saturday, 11 March 2006 21:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Boy does this show suck. I hope they fire Ryan and Marissa next season. Just make the show Seth, Summer and Taylor, with more time for Sandy and the drunk.

Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 24 March 2006 04:33 (eighteen years ago) link

i really liked last nights episode. i want them to find out sandy's boy partner has been shooting coke all this time.
im also intrigued by the line from that guy who keeps following marissa around. something like 'if you want to take a break from whats going on in your head, ive got something'. i really loved when he was outside he trailer and she came home and did that almost closed the door then pushed it wide open move like 'fuck it, lets fuck.' best acting from mischa yet.
seth and summer, sadie and ryan. eh.

sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 24 March 2006 13:43 (eighteen years ago) link

yes, the open trailer door was the best part. and that it's a trailer.

the whole thing with Ryan and Jess, the blonde girl, was boring and predictable though. And holy crap, do teenage couples really ever in real life lose their sex drive??? I MEAN O COME ON. Find one better idea for plotline, srsly. (okay, some might, I understand that anything is possible, but still... IT"S TV>)

rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 24 March 2006 16:32 (eighteen years ago) link

i hadnt seen any of these people have sex since the first season until last night. suddenly everyone was boffing.
