For the people that I talk to on a day-to-day basis, you would know that the one show that I’ve been secretly keeping up with is The OC. Yes I am a 29-year-old-in-the-closet-OC-fan. Although I did sort of lose interest of it in Season 2 but have been watching it ever since the character Oliver was gone. I just watched the season finale tonight for Season 3 and finally realized they killed off one of their main character, Marissa Cooper, played by Mischa Barton. Like many of the OC fans out there, I did not like Marissa at times. She was always the damsel in distress or the reckless party girl who was on a path of self-destruction. But after watching this episode and realizing that they killed her off, I’m kinda sad because her character grew on me. Yeah it was kinda of lame this season when she went off with yet another guy and initiated a self-destruction phase of her life after her friend Johnny died and finally realized that she messed up in a single episode to come back into the good girl getting set to go to college. I’ve been scouring the discussion boards reading on what people had to say. Most people was actually upset and crying. I assure you I have yet to shed a tear but I am in disbelief. I am in awe and kinda of in denial that she’s dead. Its been awhile since a show has actually given me this kind of a reaction. I’m definitely going to be there for the next season’s premiere. Thank you Fox and Josh Swartz, you’ve sold me on this one.
