California, here we cooooommmme!

I decided to spend the day watching the first season of the OC and i have some observations

1. First and most importantly, damn this show used to be good! what happened!

2. Marissa was not so annoying on the first few episodes. I even kind of dare i say felt for her.

2. When Ryan stays at the Cohens the first night they introduce him to thier maid Rosa who is making Ryan's bed, at night, which means she lives there. Apparently Rosa was not a key character as she was promptly never shown again after episode one.

3. The characters were so much more realistic, and maybe that's why i loved the first season. Seth is actually a huge nerd and i believe it, Ryan is actually from the wrong side of the tracks and is interesting. Summer is really stupid and high schoolish, and more importantly Marissa really is kind of tormented.

EPISODE 3
4. I totally forgot how Jimmy and Kirsten had had a thing when they were younger. Just more evidence of how the OC loves to create plots lines that they never follow through with.

5. Luke!! god how i missed luke!

6. Oh my bad, I take it back. Apparently this elusive maid Rosa makes another guest appearance in episode 3. Oh wait she makes two appearances in episode 3!

EPISODE 4
7. It's really at this point in the show, the katillion episode where marissa's acting skills are put to the test and she fails miserably. Before this i totally bought her as the poor little rich girl. I even pittied her. I might have even believed that someday she could go to Berkeley.

EPISODE 5
8. Apparently Julie, Katlyn and Marissa are all vegetarians. Jimmy mentions how he lives in a house with 3 vegetarians. hmm yet another bit of supurfluous informaiton that the OC does not use later. interesting.....

EPISODE 11
9. Many apologies to Rosa as i clearly unerestimated her importance to the show. She makes yet another appearance!

yes, I have watched 11 hours of the OC in one day, and yes, you can judge me.
