Welcome to Portland, bitch!!!





Another pretty good ep. I could handle Summer helping me fix up things around the house - no problem.

I liked it when Kirsten (who looked good tonight) and Jimmy started tossing back the drinks as soon as Julie was asked to marry Caleb. Speaking of Caleb - man is an ******* for blackmailing Marissa like that, but you knew that would happen as soon as Summer and Seth fixed up her room for her.

The moment between Summer and Seth was good when they were looking at the yearbook and Summer never realized that Seth was the Max Fischer of their high school because she had always ignored him. Those two have great chemistry.

The opening was great with the three of them crying

The Summer and Seth stuff was great throughout the episode. I couldn't stand Summer in the first few episodes but now she's one of my favorite characters.

It was great when Seth said that there was pollen in the theather.


I love Hayley - she needs more air-time. Yes, she does.

Another good episode last night. I agree about Summer and Seth's chemistry - the two of them are fun to watch together.

Seth and Summer were the highpoint of the episode for me. The rest of it was a little too overwrought and soapy.

The Summer & Seth interaction is great. Summer's definately come a long way with her personality.

A solid though not a stellar episode. Loved the talk about how much things have changed for the characters in a year. Lots of setup for the future.

Good episode. They should just do a spinoff already of Seth and Summer. It was nice to that she realized how she had treated him (or not treated him at all) in the past. Good turnaround for her.

Am I the only one or was that a sorry goodbye for Luke? And at least Julie Cooper could have gone to see how he was doing. Geez.

When the show is just Ryan/Marissa/Seth/Summer hanging out, it is the best show on tv, bar none.

When the show is Kirste/Seth/Sandy/Ryan discussing thigns at home, it is the best show on tv bar none.

Any of this Luke/Julie/Cooper/Caleb/Liquor License/etc drama brings this show down to a level of daytime TV.

I wish they could just see the good things.

How come everthing dramatic happens at parties in this show?

If I was Ryan, I wouldn't of taken Marissa back, not after what she pulled with that other guy.

If you ask me, Ryan and Marissa are the least interesting characters on the show except when Ryan gets into a fistfight with someone.

You have to have Julie and Caleb there - you need some characters who are not always good and decent.

Seeing how he was suppost to only last like the first 3 or 4 episodes I would really say he was written out.

I hope thats not the last we see of Luke. I thought it was a good addition to the cast and dont see the reason why hes leaving. Id rather have him around than Oliver!
