It's an honor to be able to start this thread. Thank you.

Great episode. Once again. This season is shaping up to be...well, everything we hoped it would. Taylor has single-handedly breathed new life into this show. The tea and the kiss in the end, and then the non-consumption of tea and the Ryan finally sleeping....oh snap!!

I guess we don't have to worry about it getting cancelled either. I think Yahoo! TV had a story from E! that asked McG and the Schwartz about cancellation rumors and they both said they know nothing about that, they're just waiting to hear if they are getting 22 episodes or if FOX is sticking with the 16. Yes!!

So is Summer gonna get kicked outta Brown like Che thinks? I hope so, I want her back in Orange County. I don't see Seth going off to RISD next semester...it's too many sets.

Next week

The beginning of this season sucked, but the last 2 episodes have improved immensely.

Today's WSJ has a good article about this show and the massive ratings slippage it has seen.

WSJ? Link please.

Wall Street Journal.

Available by subscription only, unfortunately.

Really good episode. Summer's storyline is still doing nothing for me, but the rest of the show is almost back to Season 1 form.

Taylor was one of the only watchable aspects of the dreadful Season 3, so beefing up her role(particularly when it's in place of Mischa Barton) is a smart move.

Nice to see Fred Burkle's dad on TV again. He needs to lay off the teeth whitening though.

I just hope the reverse shark jump this show has pulled isn't a case of too little, too late. Hopefully with Fox's slumping TV fortunes, they'll be more inclined to keep it around as long as the writing remains at this level.

I read somewhere that they dont know how many episodes they are actually getting because of the Big rating decline.

Doughboy

Didn't Fox commit to at least 16?

Geofferson

I thought it was 13...

DJariya

It's 16...here's an article from earlier this summer

If FOX is going to order a full season, they better do it sooner than later. Most shows tend to wrap production for the season by March or April. I'm thinking they better do it by January or we're stuck with 16.

Aaaagh- I'm pissed!

Came home to watch it last night on my DVR, and it was listed with an ep description and everything. But when I went to play the show, I somehow ended up with two old epsiodes of Scrubs? My local affilate must have screwed something up - but I don't know if it was the cabel company, or the local Fox station. Either way, didn't get to see the episode.

Wish they had these online with all the other Fox shows at Myspace - but no joy there, either.

Nth Power

Wow, I may have to start watching it again. I gave up on it halfway through last season.

DJariya

I loved this episode!
I agree that Autumn Reeser has been a breathe of fresh air and has brought new life to this show. Big Kudos to Josh Schwartz for casting her!!

Was anyone else reminded of pancake rabbit from Summer's new rabbit, Pancakes?

Good episode. What an ass Che is for blaming all the stuff on Summer.

Taylor and Ryan are exponentially better than Marissa and Ryan

Great episode all around, gotta love slutty MILF Julie Cooper

Geofferson

Cool.

(still not a full order, but more than I was expecting)

Can anyone tell me if The OC Mix 6 is still coming out on the 5th? I don't see it in any of the ads this week for the stores.

Brent_MN

Yes.

Good to know. Find it odd though that no one had it in their print ads this week. I guess I may just get it off of Amazon. Thanks Brent!

superdeluxe

Love it. Thats the first thing I thought of.
