I am FINALLY postin' some OC news. In time for the 2nd season finale and in honor of Caleb's demise. Some news will be pretty old but I'm sure you will enjoy it anyways. Some news I have yet had a chance to look over but, oh well. I must post this for you before I burst.

ANSWER B!TCH
You Asked...Can you chime in on the soundtrackto these lush lives?---
"Why don't you just get a haircut? I'm getting a little sick of the whole Sean Cassidy thing." Seth to Zach on "The O.C." You know I like Zach but I'm so glad someone finally acknowledged his haircut. That boy needs an "American Idol" style makeover.

As you know I think "The O.C." (Thursday, FOX, 8 p.m.) is tragically underpopulated -- seriously, a census of the entire county would take like five seconds. That's why I'm so disappointed that the writers have totally demonized Trey past the point of redemption. I liked the actor and thought he'd be a nice addition to the cast. That, of course, can never happen now that he's suddenly evil. This is a bad turn of events. I've said it before, but it's worth repeating. "The O.C." has already become too much like a latter day "Melrose Place." When "Melrose" started to go bad, I often felt like they were in a race I didn't know about -- story lines clipped along so quickly I didn't have time to care about them before they were suddenly over. Unfortunately, the same can be said for "The O.C." this season. Seriously, I'd take Oliver any day over some of this nonsense. They've ruined Seth (who is far too aware of how cute he is), they've turned Summer into a shrill pest (her story line with Seth is on continuous repeat mode), and can anyone justify Ryan's haircut? Only the parents are faring well these days.

"I have a lot of hype to live up to. I'm screwed."
--The O.C. creator Josh Schwartz in Watch with Kristin, talking cliffhangers

Meanwhile, on the off chance it should help in your supersleuthing, I'll share what Josh Schwartz (The O.C.'s boss and future husband of most of my single female friends) says of the Newport gang's season-ender on May 19. "We're just gonna get nuttier and zanier, and we're going to end the season with a real live cliffhanger," he reveals. "Unlike last year, which was a little bit more of an emotional cliffhanger that had to sustain us over a really long period of time, this year is gonna be a more honest-to-goodness 'I can't believe they just did that!' shocker." He laughs. "Now I have a lot of hype to live up to. I'm screwed."
