Is it just me or did the O.C. really suck tonight? (Except, obviously, for the Julie Cooper 80’s-rock fest.)
First off, I’m really getting tired of this Sandy-Kirsten Cohen are fallible humans crap — it’s completely unrealistic and out of character for both of them to have these crises of faith, and the fact that they just so happened to occur one right after the other is preposterous. (Ok, Ok, so anyone who watches this show can’t expect realism, but this is pushing things a bit too far.)
Normally I can’t get enough of Seth acting like a complete idiot, but the whole “hiding his relationship with Ms. Young” thing just seemed lifeless. The concept was typical, but it just wasn’t really handled like the Seth we know and love.
Bottom line is that I normally can’t think of anything better than an episode of The O.C. that features a raging party, but tonight just fell a bit flat.
At least Tru Calling is picking up, despite any attempts from Brandon Walsh to bring it down. (And, none other than the Old 97s in the background of one scene!)
