You could tell from her breaking down and crying that she really came to saw Ryan as a second son especially since she was against him staying in the first place
this scene never fails at killing me. It wasn't all about cheesy tragic things between a girl and a boy. I love Ryan&Marissa but seeing Seth sailing away because he couldn't bare ryan to be gone broke my heart,
I think we can all agree that the moment we see Kirsten sobbing is when you can't hold it back any longer. Those 30 seconds (?) of her and Sandy in the pool house are Emmy worthy, no joke.
Rewatching the series again saw I had a old comment here :D. I think I was 13 when I watched this series the first time when they began to air it on the TV here after school around 2004.
Man, The O.C was me and my girlfriend's favorite show. We would watch every episode together, except this one. When I watched this episode, I got a message from her saying she couldn't be with me. Of course it had to happen to this episode. Perhaps the saddest scene in the entire show, in combination with the most emotional version of this song I know. It couldn't have happened any other way. That girl is truly the one that got away, and every time I watch this show, it always reminds me of her. Always
johano1993 This song has memories for me too, it makes me cry heavy sobs and makes my heart break, I sob till I can't breath; cuz I lost the one I love and it was because of me.😢😭
The only word to comes to mind watching this scene is loneliness. Absolute loneliness. Whether in a car with another person, or in a gigantic house, or especially on a sail boat in the middle of the ocean.... this season ended with just tragic levels of loneliness
One of my favorite memories was buying Season 1 on DVD in the US and bringing it back to the UK before it finished airing on E4 in the UK. My best friends has three brothers, and all four of them were sulking and wiping their tears away watching this ending. Of course back then in 2003/2004, we didn't know if TV shows were coming back for more seasons! We thought Ryan was off back to Chino for good!
this is so true! Back then we really got American shows months after they initially aired on American TV, unlike today where it’s usually instant or on demand. That’s why this was so beautiful because we really had no clue if this was the end or if a 2nd season was coming. We wouldn’t know if it got renewed unlike these days now. One day I’ll be in California and the Orange County🙏🏾
One of the top 3 most heartbreaking moments hands down. One of the best scenes too with all the flashbacks and such. I get a lump in my throat every time I watch this.
This should've been number one of the best music moment. I NEVER cry when I watch TV. Never! But when this originally aired I was bawling like a baby. This montage is so nostalgic for me. Season 1 was completely magical.
Made me cry..the OC helped me through a tough time myself. This is a truly beautiful show with beautiful characters, and a beautiful story. Its midnight here and I'm crying watching this again. The tears are not of sadness though. They're of joy. Wish all of you lovely folks a great day and life ahead. :) Yours lovingly, Aditya.
+freemysoul132 Ryan became a police officer, followed by a couple of years in the army and, finally, a detective in Gotham. He goes by the name of Jim Gordon now, though.
How they managed to mess up the show after season 1 ill never know. Honestly the first season was incredible and in parts the second too. Would have loved The OC to carry on for many more seasons.
Studio interference, before it went on air the Fox didn’t put much behind The OC and left Schwartz and his team alone to do whatever they wanted but then once it premiered it became a cultural phenomenon and the studio started to pay more attention and stepped in and ruined what could’ve been the best show off all time.
This was one of the first tv shows that made me cry, and this episode especially does it still to this day. and like what city1wok said below me, it was such a huge part of my life and it makes me both happy and sad rewatching it all...
I watch this video every now and then, and when it starts I always think I make it through without crying - then I see Kirsten break down and bawl like I did when I first saw this on tv.... The OC is a masterpiece and it changed my life 🧡
I remember watching this episode, hard to watch back then, still is. This was also the first time I heard the song "Hallelujah", still haunts me today.
I love this song and scene... So many memories attached to it... going across a bridge at sunset to this version makes you feel something special.... Love the OC.
that's what the o.c. does. this show finished almost 6 years ago and even past all this years we will never forget, and get emotional/miss/get nostalgic.
Everytime i watch a cuppel of episodes of this show i always get daydreams and cant stop thinking about how it would be living a life like that, this show bring such a strong feeling in it, and this song really prove it, forever and ever big O.C fan .
Watch all episodes again OC is my favorite show I miss you in my life OC, all songs, all characters, even Oliver and Johnny... =/ Never forget you, always be in my heart.
I didn't watch it when it first started, thinking it was another gossip girl. But it's truly amazing. This scene is one of my favorites, and I cried... Seth and the boat it's just perfect. great series.
Se me hace raro decir esto, pero... qué momentos me ha hecho pasar esta serie... llantos y sonrisas, alegrías... me ha encantado. :) es una lástima que acabara... fue una lástima que muriera Marissa.
I am glad there are others out there who have seen this show at least 7 times just as I have. When somebody asks me what my favourite series is, I respond with ''I have a lot of favourite series, but the OC is my favourite show by LIGHTSYEARS" the ending of season 1 is the best ending I have ever seen, and will ever see for as long as I live. Thank you Josh Schwartz and the cast and everybody who has been involved for making this life altering show.
Although I cried a lot more when Marissa died, I have to admit this is the best scene of any TV show. It is flawless. I have so many thoughts, but I can't express how much this scene means to me.
OMG i love how this song makes me feel like i'm one of them! it makes me cry this song! and looking how everything is tearning apart. it's like the end of and era. it's so heart breaking to see this scene :( i miss THE O.C
The O.C will always be my favorite tv show & I cry everytime I watch this episode on my O.C-box! I think the saddest in this episode is when Ryan and Marissa dance and it's like really goodbye for them :(
i still know the day i saw this great final.... i´ve seen this episode, took my bike and drove to the dvd store and bought season 2...i´m so addicted to it!!
I always cry when I watch this montage. ALWAYS. Even though I've seen it too many times. It just never gets old. Kirsten crying on the bed just breaks my heart.
Hallelujah is such a powerful song, made me cry when i watched the season one finale and especially when marissa died in season 3, such a fantastic and haunting song choice
The OC seriously had some really powerful music moments.
I agree!!
What broke my heart is Kirsten crying while putting away Ryan's bed sheets.
Broke my heart too 🤦🏼♀️
I cried actually
You could tell from her breaking down and crying that she really came to saw Ryan as a second son especially since she was against him staying in the first place
Yeah same ...
i think kirsten was also thinking about her choice to have an abortion and how ryan was leaving to support teresa
Season 1 was a masterpiece
True!
this scene never fails at killing me. It wasn't all about cheesy tragic things between a girl and a boy. I love Ryan&Marissa but seeing Seth sailing away because he couldn't bare ryan to be gone broke my heart,
The depth of the show was what made it so good
I think we can all agree that the moment we see Kirsten sobbing is when you can't hold it back any longer. Those 30 seconds (?) of her and Sandy in the pool house are Emmy worthy, no joke.
the OC influenced my teenage years like no other show. it was just something else
man I remember watching this for the first time, hit me like a brick wall, still get chills from it everytime after all these years
Rewatching the series again saw I had a old comment here :D. I think I was 13 when I watched this series the first time when they began to air it on the TV here after school around 2004.
I miss the OC so much :(
best show ever...
so do i :(
Still missing it... in 2016.
Same
:^(
First time I saw this scene I cried like a baby. 2018 and watching this I'm doing exactly the same.
Same
The scene when Kirsten starts crying just breaks my heart 💔
still in 2019 it is so real still love it
Soooo sad.... tears running down my face- it's Kirsten's reaction, gets me everytime!!
i'm always mentally devastated when i watch o.c.
i cried sooo many times
and dont regret at all
best series EVER made

This is really bitter-sweet. Thanks for sharing. Some memories are worth keeping though, even if they are bitter-sweet.
johano1993 I'm sorry for your loss.😢
johano1993 This song has memories for me too, it makes me cry heavy sobs and makes my heart break, I sob till I can't breath; cuz I lost the one I love and it was because of me.😢😭
Geez, that's brutal. I hope the memory and the melody stings a little less today than it did when you wrote this
Anyone else agree that this should be #1?
i agree
Totally agree or maybe tied with forever young
Tied with bad dream
fr!!
This show changed my taste in music completely. I'll never forget the great music moments like this one.
I love how in the beginning Kirsten was like nope not in my house at all, then here u can tell she fell in love with him as if he were her real son
The only word to comes to mind watching this scene is loneliness. Absolute loneliness. Whether in a car with another person, or in a gigantic house, or especially on a sail boat in the middle of the ocean.... this season ended with just tragic levels of loneliness
So true. Never thought of it that way
I used to live alone before I knew you.
This is so accurate, for Seth especially..
Can we agree this is the greatest teen drama ever made
This should be #1.... just amazing.
Absolutely.
The OC has the best music ever. There will never be another show like it!
Dude...Ryan holding tears with Seth was already hard to handle...Kirsten falling in tears got me right in the feels 😐😢
We all have/had our own Marissa ❤ Here's to our Marissa's 💔
One of my favorite memories was buying Season 1 on DVD in the US and bringing it back to the UK before it finished airing on E4 in the UK.

When Kirsten breaks down on the bed.... I lost it :'(
this is one of the most beautiful moments in tv history ever. no doubt
This scene make me want to be a film director..
7 years already since the last episode aired... time flies
@@svenpraso5529 and this was 2 years ago
You know how depressing it is to read this comment about six years ago, seven years later, and realize it really aired sixteen years ago?
@@PaperRaines Time flies
18 years today since the pilot aired... i feel old 🥺 i miss this show, i always rewatch it at least once a year
We're not far from 20 years now. Unbelievable.
literally the best ending of a season. ah tears to my eyes..best show ever
This is the real number one. After all this time it still made me cry and miss the OC.
2021 and this still gives me goosebumps! Damn, I love this show!!!
The O.C. was the best show, and i can't believe how much I miss it! Time passes too fast :'(
One of the top 3 most heartbreaking moments hands down. One of the best scenes too with all the flashbacks and such. I get a lump in my throat every time I watch this.

I NEVER cry when I watch TV. Never! But when this originally aired I was bawling like a baby. This montage is so nostalgic for me.
Season 1 was completely magical.
The O.C always made me feel part of their family. i'll miss The O.C
DAMN THE MEMORIES ARE FLOODING BACK. Marissa and her shoplifting, drinking, and shooting people. I gotta marathon this show
HBO Max
Made me cry..the OC helped me through a tough time myself. This is a truly beautiful show with beautiful characters, and a beautiful story.
Its midnight here and I'm crying watching this again. The tears are not of sadness though. They're of joy. Wish all of you lovely folks a great day and life ahead. :)
Yours lovingly,
Aditya.
Thank you so much! This is special (:
I come back to those videos again and again thanks for all those wonderful nights I had those last 6 years that I've been watching this Playlist
i cried
I always cry at the end of season 1, it hurts to watch the one you love drive off. not knowing if you'll see them again.
i cry when i see kirsten cry in this scene!
i wish it would have a new season with their lifes now
that' exactly what I tought! :o
except marissa can't come back no matter what.. :(
sadly true, but i'd watch it anyway.. just watching everything about the O.C. makes me feel good!
stillownya
really? for me this show was a lot of ups and downs. more downs actually, but I was captivated.
+freemysoul132 Ryan became a police officer, followed by a couple of years in the army and, finally, a detective in Gotham. He goes by the name of Jim Gordon now, though.
Ryan, Marissa, Seth and summer...The fantastic four! Always in my heart!
How they managed to mess up the show after season 1 ill never know. Honestly the first season was incredible and in parts the second too. Would have loved The OC to carry on for many more seasons.

Yeah I pretty much forgot everything after season two. It turned into a train wreck of nonsense
s2 was a decent season and s3 also had a lot of good episodes
This was one of the first tv shows that made me cry, and this episode especially does it still to this day.
and like what city1wok said below me, it was such a huge part of my life and it makes me both happy and sad rewatching it all...
when Kirsten starts crying, I totally start breaking down. Its so sad! :(

How did it change your life?
I remember watching this episode, hard to watch back then, still is. This was also the first time I heard the song "Hallelujah", still haunts me today.
The OC was awesome!!!!
I love this song and scene... So many memories attached to it... going across a bridge at sunset to this version makes you feel something special....
Love the OC.
I watched this show when it was aired on tv. Now it’s 2019 and I m watching it all over again with my wife and kids on HULU.
Can't believe it's been ten years since this show came out. I still watch. It's a classic.
that's what the o.c. does. this show finished almost 6 years ago and even past all this years we will never forget, and get emotional/miss/get nostalgic.
They've been such a genious to put this song in the end
Everytime i watch a cuppel of episodes of this show i always get daydreams and cant stop thinking about how it would be living a life like that, this show bring such a strong feeling in it, and this song really prove it, forever and ever big O.C fan .

Se me hace raro decir esto, pero... qué momentos me ha hecho pasar esta serie... llantos y sonrisas, alegrías... me ha encantado. :) es una lástima que acabara... fue una lástima que muriera Marissa.

This scene really affected me emotionally. The song fits so well to the atmosphere and it's so sad. Cinema at its most magnificient!
I love this show! I have all four seasons and I just began watching them for like the 5th time :)

I really really love this scene, its beautiful and so sad...
i have every single episode on dvd.
THE O.C FOR LIFE
it is the best show ever!!!the first season was just AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Quanto mi manca O.C.! Nessun altro telefilm potrà mai batterlo, era unico nel suo genere!
Good times... Highschool and the summers.
This last montage was super emotional, one of the best and most emotional season finale. I’ve seen in a long time
Soooooooooooooo sad, favorite show ever!
Maybe THE most memorable moment of all seasons for me personal !
I remember watching this air in 2004 and it made me cry.......2011, it still does!
R.I.P. "The OC".. You were a big of my highschool years, i'll never forget what you meant to me
the fourth season was the best... every episode made me cry.. i loved every minute of the show...
2018 and i miss the o.c. :(
OMG this ending always makes me ball my eyes out!
one of the only shows i can still watch on tv
i still know the day i saw this great final.... i´ve seen this episode, took my bike and drove to the dvd store and bought season 2...i´m so addicted to it!!
when i watched this on tv, this song and these scenes always stayed with me... good music moment :)
I always cry when I watch this montage. ALWAYS. Even though I've seen it too many times. It just never gets old. Kirsten crying on the bed just breaks my heart.
THE BEST SERIES 4-EVER
with many feelings :-D
Hallelujah is such a powerful song, made me cry when i watched the season one finale and especially when marissa died in season 3, such a fantastic and haunting song choice
Not only was it class but I discovered so many new bands from the O.C. Love It
Why the fuck isn't this #1? best season finale ever, and I have seen a finale or two...
Season two's ending was the best ending. When Trey was shot
