Britain's media watchdog outraged over the line, "Welcome to the O.C., bitch" --- Shannon (Lindsey) is in this month's ElleGirl magazine. --- Why not bring back "Battle of the Network Stars"?ABC, NBC and even the WB are open to the idea. "So why not bring back the 'Battle' and separate the 18- to 49-year-olds from the boys?" asks Sarah Rodman, who poses the question to the network heads. "In a head-to-head Simon Says game, how would 'Alias' superspy Jennifer Garner fare against '24's' stoic Keifer Sutherland? Who would win a tug-of-war between the skinny divas of 'The O.C.' and 'Desperate Housewive'? Wouldn't it be fun if the hunks from such teen dramas as 'Everwood' and 'One Tree Hill' faced the casts of the 'CSI' shows in a three-legged race? Tell me that wouldn't make great television." --- Inspired by "The Lonely Hearts Club," we have devised a special edition of the classic word game, Mad Libs - OC style! Grab a friend or two, fill in the blanks and enjoy this game right now! (ocfiles.com) --- TVGuide.com TV's 20 Best Same-Sex Kisses
13. Jesse and Katie, Once and Again 2002 Two 14-year-old budding sweethearts share their first tentative kiss in Jesse's bedroom, watering up many a cynical eye. Evan Rachel Wood (Jesse) — who was only 14 herself at the time — said: "Half the people that I told I had to have an on-screen kiss with a girl asked, 'Was it weird?' I was like, the only difference was we were both wearing lip gloss. It's just really beautiful and innocent." Of course, that Katie was played by future O.C. star Mischa Barton didn't hurt the tune-in rate.
14. Marissa and Alex, The O.C. 2005 Mischa Barton strikes again! As the chronically unlucky-in-love Marissa Cooper, she's tanked with Ryan and sent hottie lawnboy D.J. running for the hills. Hell, even Seth is happy to keep it as "just friends." Which probably explains why, last Thursday night, this boozy afterschool special in the making hit the beach for some macking on bad-girl club manager Alex (Olivia Wilde). Somehow, we always thought it would be Summer who'd get her hot and bothered.
Ryan & Marissa rated in the magazine as well (not for same sex kiss though). What number? I forgot! Sorries! --- Futoncritic.com
