When I was younger and The OC was popular, I was a big fan. (Are you surprised? Didn't think so.)
Like most teen shows, The OC had more drama in each hour-long episode than the characters could deal with, but I didn't care. Mostly because of the presence of one awesome guy by the name of Seth Cohen. Nedy, hilarious, cute and a good friend, he had all the makings of a great character, and as the plot twists and turns started to leave a lot to be desired in the show, he was the shining star that kept bringing me back each and every Thursday.
