The OC was funny and then turned into a craptastic train wreck after a few seasons. I still have seasons one and two and bust them out in between hockey seasons and re-runs.
The funnier part were the little snide things that only a few people would understand - like Caleb Nichol (the rich dad) was totally modeled after Donald Bren (see my post yesterday about the OC wealthy guys...) One of the writers is a UCI alum (where Bren gives a lot of cash...)
But then again it was filmed in LA, so sometimes it was a complete stretch to call it The OC. Overall it was a soap opera that was in prime time.
And that just reminded me, the "I'm not good at talking about stuff" on my journal page came from a line in that show. I started this LJ based on my fanfic I used to write about the show.
