Why do people like this shit? It's fuckin awful. My gay roommate was watching it tonight, I thought it was some 3rd rate teenage soap-opera.

OC - Overstated Crap

It's a prime-time soap opera, so of course the writing isn't as clever as the critics claim it is; the actors are horribly bad (Mischa Barton is terribly overrated; same with Rachel Bilson and dude who plays Ryan), and no one is ever going to be happy for too long. That's entertainment television for 'ya.

I was going to diss you for bringing it up at all, but thank god you all hate it as much as I do...
But really, is it any better or worse than 90210 was, or Melrose? Time and alcohol has fogged my memory, but I seem to recall them sucking just as badly...

(Nov 10 05, 18:26)Yup, same stuff. Unfortunately, it'll be just as popular as those. Maybe not a classic yet, but could be in the future. My professor already used The OC as an example for certain lectures in some of my media classes last year.

It doesn't make it right!!!
Unfortunately, it is just one of many pitiful shows on TV.

If i ever find the time to watch the box these days, it's straight to the news channels, or if i'm up for something light-hearted, I go for anything animated... the simpsons, family guy, futurama, southpark, they're all sitcoms for my generation, and I love them. Giggady-giggady.
For a subscription service ($6) to see 50 channels airing various tv shows 24-hours a day, try http://www.myibnet.com ...
They have classics like 'I'm Alan partridge', Bottom, BlackAdder... great stuff.

Haha, I watched an episode with a friend once reluctantly, then I borrowed a dvd, kinda got hooked.
I mean it's rubbish, but I think more interesting than the other similair programmes. It was a week-long addiction. MUST WATCH OC! ARGH WHY.
It's gone now.
Phew, thank goodness for ..

In the UK we have the equivalent which is a piece of crap called Hollyoaks. Lord knows why it didn't get cancelled after the first season.

The OC was much better than cuntyoaks. Now that is a show I fucking loathe. Utter utter pish. But I quite liked watching the OC whilst eating my breakfast on a Sunday afternoon. It's still pish, but entertaining pish. Is my gay showing?
