Why are season premieres diametrically opposite season finales? The season premiere of The OC was such a drag. There were ten minutes of nonsense songs with the 4 on the beach. There was some sort of recap, and all’s well (sort of) that ends well with Trey going away and Ryan getting justice.

The only variable now is what is Jeri Ryan’s character really up to? What is Kirsten really thinking - or is she thinking at all?

And I am not sure what they are thinking of Jimmy Cooper’s interest in the Nichol empire. He has no morals, looks like. Given what Sandy has done for him in the past, it was quite pathetic that he did not inform him of Julie’s ‘move’.

Oh well, welcome to the O.C.! :-)
