Oh-My-God-The-O-C: Season Finale

Okay, it was full of potboiler twists--totally operatic--but I must say, there were a couple scenes where I really was touched. The acting in this show is totally top notch, and that's the most important facet of this show. The show has to deliver outrageous plot twists--that's why we watch it; it has to deliver high drama; but to make it palatable and in-depth, the acting has to be straightforward and skilled. Luckily it is, even by the people who play the most cartoonish characters (i.e. Melinda Clarke as Julie Cooper). Well, Mischa Barton isn't exactly Meryl Streep, but she's fine for now.

I'll miss it. Will Marissa go to jail? Is Tray actually dead? Will Kiki survive rehab? ?? Will she??? WILL SHE??

Must calm down. I have a summer to get through mentally intact!
