Content:  In this podcast, we talk about the TV-show “The O.C.” (USA 2003-2007), created by Josh Schwartz. We highlight the contrast between rich and poor in Orange County, California, focusing on Ryan Atwood as he immerses himself in this world and begins a relationship with Marissa Cooper.  We praise the humor and drama of the first three seasons, but criticize the end of the third season. It weakens the series considerably, so that the fourth season clearly loses quality. Overall we appreciate the charm and humor of “The O.C.”.  Plot:  “The O.C.“ four seasons, 92 episodes, follows Ryan Atwood, a troubled teen from a poor background, who is taken in by the wealthy Cohen family in affluent Orange County, California.  Thrust into a world of luxury, Ryan (Ben McKenzie) navigates the challenges of fitting in among the rich, who live in oceanfront mansions and drive flashy cars. He forms a bond with the Cohens’ son, Seth (Adam Brody), and falls for Marissa (Mischa Barton), a popular girl next door.  The series explores love, friendship, and the clash between social classes amidst drama and humor.
