"“The O.C.” Returns Tonight With A NEW Love Triangle!”

By Arlene R. Weiss © Copyright March 9, 2006

Apparently, “The O.C.” Creator/Writer, Josh Schwartz paid us no heed in our Friday, February 10, 2006 article, when we specifically instructed dear old Josh to “STOP IT! Stop it now!”, when he started up and left us hanging in the last episode prior to the series going on a month long hiatus/break during February, with another one of his water logged story arcs driving a wedge between, (or rather, throwing a wet blanket over) our FAVORITE, sparkling love birds Ryan and Marissa, which Schwartz seems to have a nasty habit of doing whenever he runs out of new and intelligent story ideas.

So when “The O.C.” returns from its break, on tonight’s Thursday, March 9, 2006 episode, “The Heavy Lifting”, Marissa will still be pining away for the deceased, Johnny, just CERTAIN, that it was Johnny that was her soul mate/true love and not Ryan.

(Marissa, you remember Ryan, the solid, stalwart, pillar, sexalicious hunk who has loyally and faithfully stuck by your side through your numerous confused, romantic dalliances, and dysfunctional foul ups with alcohol, drugs, attempt at suicide, kleptomania, expulsion from Harbor High School (which Ryan went on a personal one man mission to get you re-admitted BACK in, so that your entire life wouldn’t be a 10 car pile up!).

Ah yeah.

Ryan, understandably ticked off that his woman, once more, refuses to stand by her man (Ryan), and make up her darn mind about who she REALLY loves, (uh, that would be Ryan!), will be tempted by the flirtations of Johnny’s newly arrived cousin, Sadie, played by newcomer, actress, Nikki Reed.

We love romantic tension on “The O.C.”, our FAVORITE TV show, but not the kind Schwartz always does when he screws up the ONE romance on the show (ok…2 if you count the dazzling, steadfast Sandy and Kirsten), that should be OFF LIMITS!!!!

As we said before, “The O.C.” can have as many romances, trysts, hook ups, affairs, as it wants with all of the OTHER characters on the show, but Ryan and Marissa have some kind of special, magic, GOOD mojo formula that makes the show sparkle!

Mess with that, and you mess with the secret formula that makes the show so delicious, and well, you just plain create a MESS!

We also are sick and tired of the way Schwartz makes Marissa out to be a perennially, wishy, washy, ditzy, indecisive flake (when she is NOT! We LOVE Marissa!), who constantly thinks that the grass is greener and goes back and forth, questioning her love for Ryan by consistently dabbling in bad boy toys, nut jobs, losers from Johnny to DJ to Alex to the dreaded OLIVER!!!!

Oh the horror!

Anyway, watch tonight with terror as “The O.C.” becomes the House of Horrors when the script and story take us yet again down a dark and forbidden path called, crap!

Josh, will you PLEASE leave Ryan and Marissa alone and let these two canoodle and snog forever as a couple, as their love is written in the stars above Newport Beach!
