Back, back to Cali, Cali

Its been a while since The OC went off the air. I was quite dissapointed in the show to be honest. It started off so strongly and then just turned into a big, silly, sloppy mess. But this morning I find myself wondering what are the Ryan, Seth, Summer, and Marissa up to now?

Benjamin McKenzie aka Ryan Atwood:

Ben McKenzie is a self proclaimed loner, much like his character on television. So it is no surprise to find the latest news article on Ben is several weeks old and merely mentioning he is back in his hometown. Gotta love those hometown Texas boys!


Adam Brody aka Seth Cohen: TV's most likeable nerd has actually been pretty busy since The OC saga came to an end. He has 4 movies under his belt: In the Land of Women, The Ten, Smiley Face, Death in Love. His long term relationship with co-star Rachel Bilson has ended. Unlike his character Seth Cohen, Adam strives to be in the spotlight.



Mischa Barton aka Marissa Cooper: Mischa does not seem to have done much except party and get into trouble lately. Her "bad girl" image followed her off screen into real life. Next up for Mischa is playing a lesbian in a new movie...been there done that right Mischa?







Rachel Bilson aka Summer Roberts: Rachel has also not been up to much this year. She filmed one movie and will appear on an episode or 2 of Chuck. She seems a lot like her character Summer. A down to earth, sweet girl.

I dont think any of these four people will ever hit it big again. The OC came along right at the right time. People were hungry for post 90210 meets Dawson's Creek drama. Then it came and the momentum just couldnt last. Did the show get a new writer? What went wrong...the last season is just so wretchedly horrible.
