why is this deemed as "important"? how can a trashy american soapy be important?
Probably for the same reason the "anime thread" is "important":).

yeah i can understand that...but why don't you watch neighbors or something? at least it's australia crap.
The Australian Entertainment Industry (especially Neighbours) deserved to be laughed at:uhhuh:.

at least the acting bears some slight resemblance to how people act in real life. wheras the o.c. brain-numbing crap is so over-theatrical and unrealistic. i know it's "meant to be that way"...but it doesn't stop it being shit.

I agree, but I think part of the reason why it appeals to me is because of the plastic acting and overall unrealistic storyline.

I admit that the show is very unrealistic at times and overly dramatic, but I still like the storyline and most of the characters are great:).

i do watch neighbours. i watch the OC as well. problem solved.

and stuff isn't good or bad because of what country it comes from. it's good or bad. the writing and acting (mostly) is better on the OC because the budget is bigger, the range of actors they can choose from is wider and they have longer to produce each episode.

I didn't say that. It just so happens that everything to come out of Australia is very poor, in my opinion:(.

Hopefully that means he will be leaving the show:D! All in all though, I think he was good for the show, something a little different. Having said that, I think it is time for him to leave now:).

best - episode - ever.


Marrissa owes Ryan bigtime.

And i think the moral of the story is - "the paranoid ex-boyfriend is always right"
