Just started the OC. Im on season 1 now. Does it get better? Like all mid 00s teen shows, im anticipating a little teen pregnancy, drunk driving, maybe some cheating…. Just saw the ep where the dudes dad turnsout to be a flambay.

Was one of my faves in the early 200s. Great soundtrack too.

Watching it now with the wife. We are almost done season 2. I must say, im thoroughly enjoying it. Nice little mindless series to watch to finish the day.

Nothing vibes quite like the OC and Smallville. Peak early-mid 2000s.

To me this show starts off great - and I think it was a major influence on Nerdy becoming cool. But as initial storylines completed they really didn’t have a whole lot of good to turn to and you pretty much start disliking all of the characters.

Good series. The end was goofy.

First season is awesome. After that it goes downhill big time.

I got distracted by other shows for about a year somewhere around mid S3 and picked it back up later.

Second half of S3 gets pretty crazy, leading into S4.

They should have ended it after 3 seasons when they weren't in high school anymore... but season 4 did bring us Chris Pratt's breakout role. So there's that.

If this doesn't interest you, I'm confused why you even started watching in the first place

To answer your question, Seasons 1 & 2 are great if you like the genre. Season 3 is okay, kinda drags a bit. Season 4 is garbage

This was the first series I ever "binged" since it came out before Netflix was a thing. My college roommate bought the DVD set. "California" by Phantom Planet was a great choice for opening song as well...
