The O.C. - 11/18/04

DVD Talk Legend
"Survivor: Vanuatu," 12.1/19, gave CBS the lead at 8 p.m. The combination of "Joey," 8.0/13, and "Will & Grace," 8.1/12, put NBC in second. "The O.C.," 4.8/7, was third for FOX but down a little from its first two episodes of the season. ABC's "Extreme Makeover" was right behind in fourth. UPN got a 3.4/5 from the first half of "WWE Smackdown!," while The WB aired the movie "The Whole Nine Yards."
At 9 p.m., "CSI" (19.2/28) hit the 100-episode mark in style, topping 31 million viewers for the hour. "The Apprentice," 10.3/15, kept NBC in second. ABC moved up to third with a "Primetime" special (4.7/7) tied to the opening of the Clinton presidential library. "Smackdown!" improved by a couple of tenths to take fourth place. "North Shore" managed only a 2.6/4 on FOX, while The WB's movie finished up with a 1.8/3.

As I said in last week thread, can't believe that North Shore is still on. More people wanted to watch the opening of the Clinton presidential library on "Primetime" than North Shore but troubling that OC ratings are down from the first two episodes.

I wouldn't worry about The O.C. and ratings. If FOX is really worried about the ratings, they'll move it out of there. I don't think they are - they are up way up in that timeslot from a year ago.
Who is really shitting a brick? NBC. Joey is not performing well and now W&G is performing better than the lead-in.
CBS is certainly happy. Even in what has possibly been the lamest season of Survivor, they are comfortably winning the timeslot.

Our prayers may be answered soon:
"Over and out?
"It" girl Mischa Barton is hinting she may leave TV's hit drama the The O.C., because her heart truly belongs to film.
While she enjoys her role on The O.C., which is now in its second season, the 18-year-old beauty isn't sure she wants to play troubled teen Marissa Cooper for too much longer.
Barton rationalizes, "I'm going back to film. It could go against me to be in a long-running show."
(That's assuming the show even has a shelf life -- so far season two has been rather unsatisfactory.)
It's understandable that the svelte starlet would want to get back to her acting roots. 2001's Tart was a real cult classic. Oh wait. No it wasn't."

Marissa is the one character on the show that I wouldn't mind leaving. She was all right, but nothing special. If she continues to show off some massive cleavage like last week, then she should stick around for a while. I definitely think that was, uh a new development.

I certainly would not be disapointed to see Mischa leave. It would feel weird for a while not having her as part of the show, but in the end, I think it will help.
Hopefully her last appearance will be Marissa and Oliver both committing suicide together. As much as I would like to never see Oliver again, at least this way you would know for sure that he is never coming back!

I just want to chime in on my total agreement with Seth blowing it this season. I know the creator of the show is very young, but how about the rest of the writers. As great as the writing is, there seem to be some very obvious mistakes that could be chalked up to inexperience. Oliver was obviously one, but Seth got good feedback, and then they go nuts and over the top with him. They were smart enough to listen to the fans hate of Oliver, I hope they do the same with Seth.
