    The 4th season was way too different. The whole dynamic changed, not just because of Marissa gone. They tried to fill her shoes too quick. But other characters were also notably gone. Marisa’s dad. Kirsten’s sister. They should have brought back some earlier characters to stabilize some of the loss. Not just for one episode, but for a few. Maybe Ryan’s old girlfriends or Luke.

      Season 1 and 2 are excellent but after season 2 it all started to go downhill I didn't like season 3 too much and season 4 was a complete dumpster fire.

    • @musicmakesmyday7663
      @musicmakesmyday7663 3 года назад +11

      I wouldn’t say season 4 was a complete loss but it was too drastically different. Yes, they graduated so it wanted to show how things change but the draw of the show was that this family had formed under unique obstacles ( family is not just who you are born into but who you choose) not enough of Seth and Ryan ( they weren’t just brothers but closer ) they would have found more time. The creators were distracted and not so committed to the show, and the show suffered. It became the Taylor Townsend show. She had way too much screen time. And Marisa’s little sister was kind of depressing. Not at all like the cute little girl in season one who just vanished from the show but was sharp witted and a mini Julie.

    I grow up with this show and Something That I still love about this show is that besides all the every-single-episode-events, the characters are real so you can relate with them. And maintained a cool way to show a point without all the distortion of language that is everywhere now days with no respect at all. So if there’s ever a new show like this plz honour this great project and use the correct amount of expression words in the line.

    Wouldn't change anything about the show. I think it ran it's course and if it went any longer than 4 seasons, it wouldn't have had such a lasting impact like it has. Season 4 was different but it also brought back a lot of the humour that the show had lost during the third season. Best show ever!

    Great show, just watched it this past month, all 4 seasons. Loved the first 3, but the last season was too rushed. It was hard to get emotionally invested in the characters, the way it was during the first 3 seasons. They glossed over Marissa’s death and moved forward too quickly, not that they should have dwelled over it. Oh well, it was what it was.

      We really don't know what happened behind the scenes. Mischa sadly did not turn up much different from Marissa in real life too. Drinking, drugs, drama, too many hookups etc., At some point, people should take responsibility in their own hands and stop blaming the world for their failures.
      Mischa was a talented and gorgeous person but she is also responsible for her downfall. Very sad for her, she had great potential to be a big star and if she had continued, maybe OC would have run for 7 to 8 seasons.
