Was that intresting and informative? Maybe. Maybe not.

Does it give me a reason to mention that "The OC" is coming back on November 2nd? Absolutley.

I don't know if it's going to be able to hold itself up without the drama and bitchiness of Marissa Cooper, but I'm sure going to give it a shot.

I love the OC and have gone too far to turn back now.

I'll end with a moment of Zen for one of main gay's, Jesse.

Just incase you need a reason to watch the new season..this photo is for you.
