I went to the O.C to visit some friends for New Years and it was nothing like it is on the show. -confused- I was really disappointed but I was gay when I went there and gay when I came back so...

Dalvin 03-01-05 06:26 PM

I grew up in Newport befor moving to L.A., and much of the O.C.(especially the attitudes) are real!!! They do a good job of showing the assholes with money( 7/10 people in Newport are Julie Cooper's....trust me on this). The other 3 are the Sandy Cohen's, just very down to earth, cool and blessed with what they have. Unfortunately Newport gets pegged for those 7 out of 10.

What?

You went by the local high school, and all the girls didn't look like models?
There wasn't a half empty club with no cover where Green Day was performing American Idiot.
You didn't cross paths with a rich family who invited you to live in their poolhouse?
No one punched you in the face and said "Welcome to the OC, bitch"?

riley_dude 03-01-05 06:42 PM

Believe me, I went looking for Luke at the local Mall but he had already moved to Washington. We were in Mission Viejo which was inland so we didnt see any of the Beach front property.

Gizmo 03-01-05 07:13 PM

I'm straight (Should ask my girlfriend what we did 30 minutes ago!) and I love the OC. I didn't watch it the first season when it aired because I beleive it came on the same night as Angel. I picked it up on DVD, and one night decided to watch it. The first season is 27 episodes long, so maybe 21 hours or so. I finished the ENTIRE season in a day and a half. I didn't SLEEP so I could watch every episode, it was just SO damn good. I havn't done that since Buffy (My first episode of Buffy was the Series FINALE!).

Ive been watching 90210 and Dawsons Creek in re-runs in the morning. So the answer your original question, I'm not gay, and I love the OC.

Exactly!

If I want to see Lesbians or hot chics, I can watch porn.


Why get the appetizer when you can get the main course?


That Misha Barton chics needs a couple of Double pastrami burgers in her body.

Count Dooku 03-02-05 03:37 AM

I think her double pasrami burgers look pretty good in this picture

It entertains me, I like some of the characters and even relate to them. These characters may be larger then life, but they still manage to face the same problems that I do. I laugh a lot when I watch this show. If that's gay, then I really need to get a new dictionary.

Oh, and plus this show has a bevy of hot chicks.


I'm not even going to read anymore of this thread past these first two posts.

I agree with Drop here 100%. From your statement you obviously are basing your statements never having watched the show. Honestly, I always thought it was crap until I finally gave in and Netflixed the first disc right around Thanksgiving. I've been hooked since.

Here's looking forward to next week's ep! :thumbsup:

FYI - I have read the new Star Wars trailer will be shown during next weeks ep. Hope it's in HD if this is true!

Brody is the best thing on TV right now, the 2nd coming of Tom Hanks. Not to mention the cutting edge Music, the banter, come on, its a quality cotton candy tv show. Who would not want to watch this 1 hour of escapism?

That's the best picture I've seen of her. It's hard to notice her fucked up face.

Seth is a lucky lucky man, both on the show and in real life.

Nope, not in the closet in my case. Just paralyzed by fear at the thought of homosexuals. So for me it's homophobia. Definitely. Just as my pedophobia prevents me from watching the Michael Jackson trial.

Slow Hands 03-03-05 11:15 AM

Why do all you gous like Mischa Barton? She's pretty but has a boy body with no boobs and no ass and way too skinny.

He's started to annoy the hell out of me this season. He rambles on without pauses and they are writing him to just be a bafoon.
He left town because of RYAN (Maybe he should be having the gay storyline) and lost Summer in the process. Than has whined about it the rest of the season.

Sounds like you may need threapy. The year is 2005 ya know. Just cause you watch The O.C. does mean you will start looking at guys butts.

Jepthah 03-03-05 06:32 PM

It's my guilty pleasure, and I don't like man-ass at all.

I just watch it for pure fun. Oh, and like Mr. Scorcho says, for ALEX ALEX ALEX!!!!

I'm not taking any chances. I get night sweats if I catch a glance of my own butt in the mirror.

It's nothing like a soap opera, it has intelligent writing and some production value.

There is nothing gay about the O.C, there are some very good characters, and the chemistry between Seth and Summer is amazing, their story alone makes it worth watching. It also does a great job with the adult story lines.

illennium 03-06-05 04:21 PM

I like how males in this thread are citing the fact that they have girlfriends or wives as proof that they're straight. Because we all know that a gay man has never married a woman before...

Giantrobo 03-06-05 06:11 PM

I don't watch the show but whenever Melinda Clarke is shown on the promos my eyes bug out because she's hot.

Holly Martins 03-06-05 06:43 PM

Jake Blues: How much for the little ones. Heh heh.

Irate Dad: What!!??

Jake: The girls how much do you want for them?

Arthas76 03-06-05 08:41 PM

superdeluxe 03-06-05 09:04 PM

Also guys watch Wrestling..and all that is a glorified soap opera with guys kicking each other arses..but people go in for the storylines.

Sometimes you dont want the main course..and just want the appetizer.

Dalvin 03-06-05 09:45 PM

I'm kind of sad you didn't put Mischa on your list. She has a beautiful face.

jpdude 03-06-05 10:03 PM

Summer is sooooo HOT!
