Hi Jenny --
So I remember enjoying last night's episode of The O.C. and thinking that it included a fair number of good lines, but I watched The Office right after and that pushed out of my mind anything funny that Seth, Taylor, Summer or Julie might have said. (It was a really good repeat of The Office: the one with the diversity training.)
I do remember being incredibly disappointed when I saw Sandy's assistant and the woman from Firefly in the previouslies. I thought we resolved that subplot during the last episode, back in February? Now I think the reason I thought that was I wasn't paying attention to it because it was so boring. Can you tell me when it's really over?
I'm slightly more interested in Ryan's sudden relationship with Theresa II, although I didn't need their whole adventure this week. We didn't care about Johnny when he was alive, why would we care about his relationship with his never-before-seen deadbeat dad? The only redeeming feature of that whole story was getting to see how Rod Rowland (the really attractive guy whose tattoo, voiced by Jodie Foster, talked to him, on that one episode of The X-Files in which Scully actually gets some) has aged, except that he was on Veronica Mars earlier this season, so we already knew the answer to that one: rough.
The only subplot I did enjoy was the one in which Summer, Seth and Taylor were spying on Summer's Dad and Julie and then, only because the three of them -- especially Autumn Reeser -- have such good timing that they were able to salvage a lot of mediocre lines and cliches.
Is your memory any better? Did I forget something really funny or good?
Love,
-- Pete
