WELCOME TO THE O.C, BITCH



The O.C is an American teen drama that aired from August 2003 to February 2007 in the United States on the Fox channel and has since then been syndicated and show on various other channels. The O.C was broadcast in more than 50 countries and was the most popular drama for 2003.

The music in this show was one of the main fixtures and sometimes drew in more viewers and helped out with the storylines as the main fixture for the music in the shop was the fictional place called the 'Bait Shop', where Seth worked and also fell in love and then where Lindsay got drunk and all the rest. With some big names like: The Walkmen, Modest Mouse, The Thrills, Rachael Yamagata, Death Cab For Cutie, Beastie Boys, U2, Beck, Coldplay, Gwen Stefani and The Shins all performing on the show to mainly promote their own music. Also the biggest hit for me was Hallelujah by Imogen Heap with Marissa's death and was a real tear jerker. The main theme - California performed by Phantom Planet turned the band into a household name.

The main story of the show is about Ryan going to live with Sandy and Kirsten Cohen in Newport Beach, where he befriends their son Seth. Ryan falls in love with Marissa, the girl next door and Seth falls for her best friend, Summer. The story revolves around their lives and loves culminating in the perfect ending - I think.

The O.C has won various awards and honours including: Teen Choice Awards, Logie Awards, People's Choice Awards and Kelly Rowan won for best actress in a drama series a PRISM Award. The tagline Luke Ward used after he beat up Ryan "Welcome to the O.C, bitch" was placed 83rd by TV land in its '100 Greatest TV Quotes And Catchphrases' in 2006.

Where has the Seth and Ryan time gone to, there was a huge upset to see the 'End of the Best youth Tv show'.

The four youngsters that crept into our hearts every week had to end prematurely. I though the College Storyline would have been interesting because I believe Seth would have met another sweatheart that would have stolen his heart from Summer.
What about the little sister in the Cohen house. Where would she have fitted in her older brothers lives. Ryan's story ended prematurely, taking in a runaway child like him is not the way the story would end.

Overall a brillaint and intriguing storie that will forever be in our hearts.
