Alrighty! Hey everyone, hope you're all doing great on this fine Friday afternoon, up here in Canada. ^_^ This thread was created [by me] simply for all of you "O.C." fans to discuss everything about the show. What you like, don't like, love, don't love..talk about the cast, the crew, music, each and every aspect of the hit-TV FOX show. All I ask is that you be reasonable in what you say (in a sense), and don't bash other people's opinions. Thanks.
Personally, I really like the show. I heard it isn't on for another 2 weeks, which sort of sucks to me, but I'll live. The show has everything I look for: an excellent cast, kickass music, a great storyline..with drama, romance and comedy, and excellently portrayed characters. I adore this show more than any other.
So, what are your thoughts? =)

Hehe, in which way would you like me to enlighten you Orphen? ..regarding the cast, for instance?
Well, the cast is great. This is the first major step in most of the actors' careers (Ben McKenzie, Rachel Bilson, Adam Brody and Mischa Barton) but others, like Peter Gallagher are more than familiar with big acting roles.
In The O.C., to briefly describe, basically the whole thing is about love triangles and squares, and...polygons of all shapes between the main characters and other people who come in briefly, or extended periods of time. Currently, there is a guy named Zach interfering with Seth's (Brody) love for Summer (Bilson). Summer doesn't want Seth anymore (so it seems..) because Seth ran away from home, leaving but a meer note for his beloved girlfriend and family describing his absence from the county. He left because Ryan (McKenzie) had to leave for Chino in order to look after his expected baby with an old spark (Theresa). After learning that his baby had died in the mother's womb (though it actually hadn't..Theresa simply knew Ryan would rather have been back home, where he belonged, so she lied), he came back to The O.C. Since he was now coming home, Ryan persuaded Seth to come back home also.
The reason why Summer no longer wants Seth is because of his unexplained three month long absence. Now things are becoming more and more awkward and difficult between the four of them. Old flames and new sparks are flying between the different love interests afloat.
So, basically, it's a romance show, with comedy and much drama thrown into the middle of it. It's doing very well for itself seeing as though its 2nd season only begun several weeks ago.

Sounds interesting. Would you consider it better or worse than Degrassi? It sounds interesting to me, and I will for sure give it a shot.

I've watched several episodes of Degrassi, and in my opinion, it's just far too..violent and well, weird. I can't really explain it. It isn't all that violent, but I enjoy comedy and romance mixed. From what I've seen, Degrassi isn't all that funny.
I like The O.C. much better than Degrassi all in all. Although it's really based on opinion. Give it a shot, Orphen, then tell me what you think. It's on Thursday's, but not next week unfortunately.

Interesting. So I suppose I will watch myself an episode of this "so-called" OC, and will return with my thoughts.
