The OC 04/28/04

Just got around to watching last night's OC (tomorrow night in the US) and I have to say this was a fantastic episode. This episode contained everything that makes The OC great. Don't read if you don't want to know what happens, but here are my thoughts:

Spoiler:
OK, loved the Hayley(sp?)/Julie pool catfight. Loved Jimmy punching out Caleb. Loved Seth spending his Chanukak bucks on the pimps and hoes. Is it just me, or was Jennifer the prostitute the hottest chick that has ever been on the OC? Other great things in the episode, including Ryan ending up with Angry Trucker's Hat, but that is everything that I can remember for now. Not a big fan of the Teresa pregnancy angle, since you could see it coming a mile away, but interested in seeing how it will end. Like Sandy and Seth, I love the Vegas


Other comments? Some of you Canucks must have seen it by now.

Also, the new Beastie Boys single "Ch-Check It Out" is played during the end of the episode.

Much better episode than last week's. About the only complaint I have is how are they gonna wrap up everything with a single episode left in the season? Or are we heading toward the dreaded cliffhanger ending?

I might have to agree with that as well. It was probably the most entertaining at least.

Not over yet, and I'm proclaiming this as my favorite episode.

So many great lines, hot chicks, a cat fight, and more. They should visit The Vegas more often.

Great episode.

The catfight and Jennifer

Seth had some great lines tonight and I'm glad him and Summer are still together.

Summer's lines to Jen when she found her and Seth were great

Sandy calling Caleb "Cay-Cay".

Not a fan of the Theresa and the pregnancy.

Seth and Summer's reunion was great. What she said to Jen after she got to Vegas was pretty damn funny. And I would have never paid for the hookers - it's the principle of the whole thing. They are in the penthouse - have security toss the ****ers out.

And good for Jimmy. And Hayley.

Julie looked like some crap that came out of the '80s tonight.

It was playing right when they got to Vegas as well.

That small line had me laughing my ass off! I love this show. Definitely my favorite episode so far.

Oh man, what a great episode. It had everything: hookers, catfights, hold'em, knock-out blows, bowling, and the Vegas - can't ask for much more than that.

Not only did Sandy use "Cay-Cay" when he thought he was on good terms with Caleb, but he continued to use it when he was sabotaging Caleb's deal with Campbell at the dinner that Sandy interrupted.

Overall, fun episode, with plenty for everyone.

Seth's line about "Texas Holdem" not being what it sounded like when prostitutes were involved was funny.

I thought most ho's don't kiss (too intimate).

Summer to desk clerk: "The name is Cohen, C-O-H-E-N; I think that's how you spell it."

Over the last few episodes, I've really thought about how PERFECTLY this show was cast. Every character is exactly how you'd picture them.

The coup was casting Peter Gallagher as Sandy Cohen. Brillant.

I love the OC in the Vegas.

It was weird how Jen, the first prostitute, was pretty hot but the rest seemed pretty ugly.

Great episode but my only gripe was that they didn't show who won the catfight.

They could have done a better job of casting Marissa - Mischa Barton does the show a disservice w/ her acting abilities more often than not. Benjamin McKenzie's acting is suspect some of the time, but he does have good chemistry w/ Adam Brody and Peter Gallagher, so that is all that really matters. The rest of the casting was spot on perfect - w/ several pleasant surprises.


Where have we seen the actress who played Jen, the hooker/whore/skank/UNLV student, before? She looked familiar. Not the hottest girl to ever appear on the show, imo, but she was quite sexy. The more gratuituous bikini shots the better.

Very fun episode. This could have easily been the season finale so I'm eager to see if they top the fun of this episode next week.

Mischa Barton is like the Sunday Night Football crew. The ratings are too high to justify kicking her off, so I think we're stuck with her for quite a while.

Not only is she a horrible actress, she's ugly too. For god sake, eat a pizza.

loved it last night

Mischa Barton's looks don't bother me. Her voice on the other hand...

Hmm, somebody's been watching a lot of Perfect Woman.

According to epguides.com, Jen was played by Kristen Renton. I can't really confirm it since imdb doesn't list The O.C. under Guest Appearances, and there is no picture of her to boot.

I reserved a lot of comment on this show until it actually aired in America, but I agree with spainlinx0. This episode could have easily been the season finale, it was just that entertaining! I honestly don't understand why Ryan and Seth would pay off the pimps. The could have easily called security or the police. Neither the pimps nor the prostitutes knew where they were from, so it could have been legit. I can't wait for next week.
