The Official O.C. Thread!

[Snatch Catch]

Yeah, thats right, I'll say it loud and proud:

I LOVE THE O.C. ON FOX!!!

This episode just opened up with the undeniably smoking hot Olivia Wilde, the girl with the most incredible eyes around, having her ex in town and telling the guy that she's hooking up with to stay away and let her sort things out...and then the ex comes in and its a SHE!!!

I LOVE THIS SHOW!

[PinstripePride]

Never watched an episode. The theme song is good, though. I actually played it not 2 minutes ago.

[yanksrule69]

I missed it last week. I can't believe Julie is still running the company.

[DaBomber25]

It's currently taping, I had some sh!t to take care of. I will be watching it tonight though. Never miss it!

I also got the first season on DVD but two discs don't work! Gotta exchange them soon.

Kev, we should wait maybe one more season and have a "Hottest OC Girl" tourney.

Summer
Marissa
Ana
Lindsay
Alex
Julie
Kirsten
(What was Ryan's Ex's name?...damn can't remember it)
Holly (she was the girl Luke cheated w/in the 1st season)
Remember Caleb's girlfriend!? The one Ryan fooled around with? WOW.

Ryan's ex was Theresa I think...and you know that isn't finished coming up yet...

Alex is easily the hottest. EASILY. If I had to rank them I'd say:

Alex
Lindsay (I don't know what it is, but she just really does it for me)
Julie
Caleb's girlfriend
Summer
Ana (I actually really liked her)
Kirsten
Marissa

For the amount of goodlooking chicks on this show they are clearly lacking hot guys.

[Snatch Catch]

For the amount of goodlooking chicks on this show they are clearly lacking hot guys.

Yeah, but I don't know one girl that isn't in love with Seth Cohen's character.

[DaBomber25]

Lindsay (I don't know what it is, but she just really does it for me)

Umm, Kev? Red hair!

[DaBomber25]

Yeah, but I don't know one girl that isn't in love with Seth Cohen's character.

Same here, and I really think this show is gonna boost his career.

[Snatch Catch]

Umm, Kev? Red hair!

Bingo!

Wow. How in the hell did I miss that one...I'm an idiot...

[yanksrule69]

Yeah, but I don't know one girl that isn't in love with Seth Cohen's character.

Yeah but if that is the best a show has to offer, it is seriously lacking.

Umm, Kev? Red hair!

I was going to say the same thing.

[DaBomber25]

Yeah but if that is the best a show has to offer, it is seriously lacking

So, I take it you're not into the Abercrombie look?

[Snatch Catch]

My favorite part about the show is that the writing is hilarious and it doesn't take itself to seriously.

I actually laugh under my breath quite a bit, and that is extemely difficult to get me to do.

[IncredibleByNature]

The OC is prolly the only show aside from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, that I watch regularly nowadays. I paid more attn. last season than I have this season, but it's still good. I think Ryan is hot. He looks a little funny, but yeah.

He is funny looking. He looks like a little furry baby chick.

Probably cause he's a 26 year old playing a 16 year old.

I laugh my ass off every time I see him pedaling around on his Schwinn!

[yanksrule69]

I don't know why but that just made me laugh.

It is even better when 2 scenes later he is driving around in the Range Rover.

For the amount of goodlooking chicks on this show they are clearly lacking hot guys.

Hey, I personally find Ryan (Ben McKenzie) very very very goodlooking. And Seth isn't too bad either (looks better this season than last season), plus Zach is pretty cute himself (albeit a bit bland). Of course, we seem to have very different taste in guys .

And thank god you ranked Marissa last, Snatch. Because she is . Personally, I find Summer and Kirsten the most gorgeous women on the show. I want to look like Kelly Rowan (or Melinda Clarke/Julie) when I get to that age!

BTW, I also love the writing. It's absolutely hysterical and Josh Schwartz is a genius. But I generally adore shows that are able to poke fun at themselves like that.

Ditto that.

[cb2u]

I just watched the show, I've been watching it since the first episode. It's light & easy to watch.

I love the character of Sandy Cohen...

I'm sure the guys will go for Alex & Marissa getting it on, but it's gonna make me nauseous....

[DaBomber25]

One of my friends (who is a girl) LOVES HIM. Like, beyond belief. She asked me what I thought of last week's episode and I told her I coulda done without Sandy's singing for the last 15 minutes and she says, "Oh my God! That was like my favorite part!"

She ADORES him.

I liked when he sang, though I didn't need quite so much of that. But he has a really great voice....

I think he was in Grease on Broadway, not sure, I'll have to look it up...

I don't know how old you are, but you probably are closer than you think from being that age! In real life, Melinda Clarke is only 35 and Kelly Rowan is 37. Not too many moms of high school kids are that age...or look like them.

At any rate, I'm a big fan of the show. Fills the void that 90210 left when it finally (and mercifully) ended a few years ago. Summer's my favorite.

[keg411]

Well considering I'm 22, I'd love to look like they do at 35/37. And yes, I know the actresses are actually younger (I definitely knew Melinda was because I read something where she was chosen to do the part because Julie was supposed to have had a lot of plastic surgery and they wanted someone who looked younger than the character was supposed to be).

And I missed last week's episode, meaning I missed Sandy singing???? No!! I can't believe I missed it. And who doesn't love Sandy?

[WashingtonYankee]

Man, I am so over Seth! He's sweet, has dark hair and dark eyes, and he's a sailor! I just love his personality and everything.

And Caleb's former girl friend is Gabriel.

[Luciano]

Hey, I personally find Ryan (Ben McKenzie) very very very goodlooking.

He looks a bit like Russell Crowe. But wussier. When I saw a picture of him, I was all like, "Heeeeeeeeey." Then I saw him in motion and it all went downhill. So Russell still has my love.

I'm sure he cares.

Is Marissa the role played by Mischa Barton? I don't watch the show, so I don't know who is who, but I remember Barton from Once and Again, where I thought she looked extremely pretty. Now I see her and can't believe she's a teenager in real life. If I didn't know better, I'd think she was another example of an actor in her late 20s playing a teenager.

You may think so. I find him both cute and hot. To each their own.

[Hitman23]

for a regurgitated 90210, it's not a bad show. Summer is gorgeous.

[TannerBoyle]

everyone left out the hottest girl on the show- Hailey. Kirstens sister.

my list is:

1. Hailey
1a. Summer
2. Kirsten
2a. Alex

and a big drop off after that.
Marissa is hot but she may be the worst actress in history.

The whole age thing is kind of funny because, other than Peter Gallagher, the other actors playing the parents are probably 10-12 years older than the kids in real life.

You didn't miss much -- last week's episode was very weak. And I don't know who doesn't love Sandy, but the singing was stupid and cheesy.

[yanksrule69]

Good because I missed it too. I can do without hearing him sing for 15 minutes.

Next week should be interesting.

[Snatch Catch]

I MISSED IT LAST NIGHT!!!!

My roomate taped it, but I think that he missed the 1st 15 minutes...anything good happen?!!??

[Sam18]

I never seen the show but I am guessing something lesbian happened?

Not really and Marissa and Alex didn't hook up, I think that is next week.

[DaBomber25]

Here ya go home-slice, from the OC website...

EDIT: That was a lot longer than I expected so I deleted it. Kev, go to www.fox.com, go to shows, pick "The OC" and go to "episodes". There's a VERY lengthy recap there.

Nice!

I'm confused about the whole subplot with Rebecca...its difficult to follow in the write-up...

[DaBomber25]

From what I understand, Rebecca was engaged to Sandy and is labeled as the "love of his life". She and some guy (they didn't go too deeply into his character) burnt down some building/lab or something. Her dad asked Sandy to locate her because he doesn't have much time to live. Sandy visited the guy who helped her burn this building down in jail...there was a custodian in the building that they didn't know about and he died. So Rebecca fled the country and this guy is in jail and tells Sandy that she is dead. Sandy get confirmation from his source in Vancouver that she is dead but she's alive in the end.

Sorry for the grammar, etc. Just trying to get it out there quickly.

[yanksrule69]

Nice!

Sandy used to be engaged to Rebecca before he married Kirsten. Rebecca's father (Max) was a mentor to Sandy at law school. What I get out of it is that she was some sort of activist who burned something down and killed the janitor that was inside. She fled the country to Canada so that she wouldn't have to go to jail. Since fleeing no one has heard from her. Max is dying and wants to talk to Rebecca before he dies so he goes to Sandy to see if he has had any contact with her. Sandy finds the guy that Rebecca burned the warehouse down with, in jail, and asks where he can find her and the guy tells him that he can't because she is dead.

Kirsten is pissed because she thinks Sandy is still in love with Rebecca and can't really understand why he is so hell bent on finding her, even if it is for the Father. After Sandy hears Rebecca is dead he has Max meet him at his new office so that he can break the news to him. Max shows up with Rebecca in tow. Episode over.

[DaBomber25]

I beat you.

[Snatch Catch]

Thank you, both!

Oh, another question:

Are Alex's eyes still the most stunning, breath taking, awe inspiring, phantasmagoric pieces of the show?

Just checking...

I think that award goes to Summer's "pieces."

Her Chicklett teeth?

[DaBomber25]

I was watching some Season One DVD's yesterday...I miss Anna.

[Snatch Catch]

I was watching some Season One DVD's yesterday...I miss Anna.

I made up for that longing by watching Entourage. I really like her.

[hobokenfish]

Her Chicklett teeth?

Dude, she's the best thing about the show. (and I'm not focusing on the teeth)

[Snatch Catch]

Dude, she's the best thing about the show. (and I'm not focusing on the teeth)

I like her a lot, too, actually.

Olivia Wilde is the best thing about the show right now, though...

You know that Seth and Summer are engaged in real life, right?

Yeah, score one for the doofy Jewish kid!

[Snatch Catch]

Yeah, score one for the doofy Jewish kid!

Yes, he certainly gives the rest of us hope.

How great is it that the non-alcoholic venue that the under 21 crowd hangs out at is called "The Bait Shop"?

That is the greatest double entendre on a teen soap opera perhaps ever...

Holy crap, I never even thought about that -- that's great! I didn't even realize it was an under 21 club. I was focusing more on all of the similarities to the Peach Pit and 90210....
