I've been anticipating this show for MONTHS! And it was so, so good! It was funny, edgy, exciting, and gave us so many introductions of the characters that make me *know* there's more to that person than meets the eye! The writing was good, scenery is perfect and beautiful, and the show has a great premise. :) I also love the song, "California"- great theme song. Benjamin McKenzie still has some kinks to work out (actually the whole show does), but he shows *great* potential. He and Adam Brody (Seth) work really well off each other. Adam Brody did a fantastic job as Seth Cohen- he was funny, charmingly dorky, endearing, and so cute! *grin* Mischa Barton did well, for having not that many lines yet, as Marissa Cooper, the intriguing girl-next-door, who's already showing problems in alcohol abuse. There's so much texture and history with these characters, I can't wait to see the next episode! Everyone watch "The O.C."!
