The O.C.

This may sound crazy but I've seen season 2 first before season 1 and I liked it. Hahaha! Saw the dvd at friend's and I borrowed it. I think I've heard it all I know is I like Adam Brody that time or I saw him on the cover of the case. Whatever it is I become super duper addicted to it. Crazy me, I know. Sadly, I don't even remember every details and thoughts that come up that time. Its been years. Recetly, I continued watching season 4, a bit crazy coz Marissa wasn't there but I seem Taylor pretty cute and funny. Anyway, because of the series finale those flashbacks weren't in my memory at all so I decided to rewatched it again. Haha. Sounds crazy right? I know! But i loved them that's why I did it.

Here are some posters from the series. The first one was the cast which I truly loved, Ryan, Seth, Summer and Marissa. Then the second

one was I think the poster of season 2.

The O.C. is an American teen drama series that originally aired on Fox network in the United States from August 5, 2003 to February 21, 2007, running for total of four seasons. The series, created by Josh Schwartz, portrays the fictional lives of a group of teenagers and their families residing Newport Beach in Orange Country, California. The O.C. has been broadcast in more than 50 countries worldwide and was one of the most popular new dramas of 2003. The O.C. attracted strong 9.7 million viewers for its first season, but ratings declined as the show went on. The low ratings led to cancellation in early 2007, after four seasons, and 92 episodes, even after an online petition which gained over 700,000 signatures.

The show centers on Ryan Atwood, a troubled teenager from a broken home who is adopted by the wealthy and philanthropic Sandy and Kirsten Cohen. Ryan and his surrogate brother Seth, a socially awkward and, initially, friendless teen, deal with life as outsiders in the wild high-class world of Newport Beach, Orange Country, California. This includes their often troubled and always dramatic relationships with Summer Roberts, Marissa Cooper, Alex Kelly, Lindsay

Gardner and Taylor Townsend and others. The show also features Marissa's mother, Julie Cooper, and forthe first two seasons, her (ex)husbands Jimmy Cooper and Kirsten's overbearing father, Caleb Nichol. School water polo player Luke Ward, Marissa's boyfriend and early adversary to Ryan and Seth, causes problems in the first season. Drama also arises from Marissa's younger sister, Kaitlin Cooper. These main characters have problems and story arcs with numerous supporting characters from their past, workplace and school.

Ben McKenzie as Ryan Atwood

A troubled teenager from Chino is thrown headlong into the priviledged community of Newport Beach, California after his mother (Dawn Atwood) throws him out of their family home. Ryan is subsequently taken in by his public defender, Sandy Cohen. He forms fast bonds with all the Cohen family especially to Sandy's son Seth. Seth had no friends, and Ryan's arrival to the Cohen household shook up both their lives. Ryan had a huge impact on Seth, and Ryan is later legally adopted by Kirsten and Sandy Cohen. WHen Ryan and Marissa Cooper met for the first time there is an instantaneous attraction but it is turbulent relationship from start to finish. Along the way we see Ryan's relationships with his brother Trey, his first love and the "girl-next-door" Theresa Diaz, and his troubled relationships with his absent mother and father. Throughout the series Ryan's other love interests include Lindsay, a highschool friend, who turns out to be Caleb Nichol's secret love child. He dates Sadie, Johnny's cousin following Johnny's death. Ryan's main love interest for the most of the series is Marissa who he has an on again/off again relationship, before the two of them are involved in a car accident and she dies in his arms. After a period of intense grief, Ryan develops a romantic relationship with Taylor Townsend. The finale shows Ryan graduating from UC Berkeley and becoming an architect. While walking to his car after work one day, he sees a teen in the same situation he was in years ago and offers him help.

Adam Brody as Seth Cohen

The awkward adolescent son of Sandy and Kirsten Cohen. He is known for his quips and pop-culture references. He is also the love interest of Summer Roberts, on whom he had a crush since 3rd grade. He dated Anna Stern during season 1, but they break up due to lack of chemistry. When Ryan moved back to Chino, Seth sailed to Portland on his sailboat and stayed with Luke and Luke's gay father in protest. Seth comes back home when Ryan returns to the Cohen household. After one of his break-ups with Summer, he had a fling with the bartender at the Bait Shop, Alex. He breaks up with her because her lesbian ex-girlfriend shows up, but eventually he realizes that he loves Summer. He lies to Summer in season 3 about getting into Brown, but only to make sure that she doesn't throw away her dream of going. The truth comes eventually and he gets into RISD. He proposes to Summer in the fourth season, thinking that she might be pregnant. After he learns she is not, the thought of marriage begins to scare him and they engage in a game of chicken over who will be the one to terminate the engagement. In the finale, six months after tragic earthquake, Seth and Summer take time to pursue separate interests but get married sometime in the future with Ryan as the best man and Taylor as the maid of honor.

Mischa Barton as Marissa Cooper

The first of the "core four" to leave the series at the end of season 3. Marissa is arguably the most conflicted of the main characters, frequently battling with drugs and alcohol. Marissa's relationships with her parents, boyfriends, and fellow classmates are often tumultuous. She is Summer's best friend and Ryan's on and off love interest. Marissa engages in various romances throughout the series (in addition to her relationship with Ryan), notably with her family's gardener D.J., Seth's ex-girlfriend Alex, and high school drop-out Kevin Volchok. In the third season finale, Marissa decides to work with her father on his yacht, however, on the way to the airport with Ryan, Volchok runs them off of the road, leading to her death. Marissa's death plays a large role throughout season 4 as the other characters grieve.

Rachel Bilson as Summer Roberts

The socialite of the four main characters (Ryan, Seth, Marissa and Summer). She is the love interest of Seth, and best friend of Marissa. She is the daughter of Dr. Neil Roberts. Initially Summer is the "bitch" of the group but soon became clear this is a cover for her own insecurities. Her mother left when her parents divorced after her mother abandons them and she had no contact with her since. Her stepmother, nicknamed the "step-monster", a lazy woman with a suggested drug problem is mentioned few throughout the series and is shown only once from behind in season 4. When Seth sails to Portland, Summer finds a new love interest, Zach. On the way to be maid of honor in Zach's sister wedding in Italy, Summer leaves Zach at the airport realizing that she is meant to be with Seth. She and Seth believe she is pregnant in the fourth season and they planned to get marries. After they find out that she isn't, they break off the engagement, though not their relationship. Six months after the earthquake, Summer and Seth go their separate ways, allowing Summer to pursue her environmental interests, which she develops after the death of her best friend, Marissa. The two get married sometime in the future.

Love,
