After inhaling dangerous printer fumes at Democratic HQ for 4 hours I was ready for the new OC and it didn't disappoint. Having been raised on "Ryan's Hope" during lunchtime I am not ashamed to admit being susceptible to the charms of the soap opera- but hey hey, The OC is cool. And way better than the ludicrous "Laguna Beach: The Real OC," which I TiVO'd a few weeks back for shits and giggles to my bitter disappointment. The OC is way better than that MTV crap, which like everything else on that damned channel worships the bling, and the empty and ultimately worthless endeavours of the shamelessly rich beautiful people. At least The OC, like the superlative Veronica Mars has those existential and class warfare thangs going on; and The OC has all that cool music that you don't get to watch on the music video channels that no longer show music videos but show the empty and worthless endeavours of- you get the idea, and... great Star Wars references that occasionally come out of the kids and adults mouths (an acknowledgment of the profound multigenerational impact of Star Wars dontchaknow). It's the best, and probably way more fun than that Desperate Housewives thing that I refuse to watch thanks to the echoing thunder of negative reviews for it's second season. God that Marc Cherry guy is a jackass, and obviously a Republican (which they make a big point of in every article written about this cultural phenomenon)- the jerk got greedy and divided his efforts between multiple shows to the obvious detriment of what should be his gravy train, at least for a few more years (Chris Carter waited years before subjecting us to that excessive Millenium). What a Jerk.
And this week featured the long awaited comeuppance of that Rovishly nasty Taylor Townsend and cruel Dean Bitterman who was oppressing all those good kids so badly just because he could- the hardcore Jedi Sandy Cohen reading that Dean the riot act bit was worth watching twice! A guilty but fun and socially edifying show.
Yes, I am a sucker for that stuff. Yeehaw.
