Review
Second episodes are usually a disappointment. You have
your first episode and teasers and such before the series
starts which have this massive build up, then comes
episode two revealing it is not as cool as you thought
it would be.
Anallegies including Jake 2.0, episode 1 - cool technology,
episode 2 - turns into just another spy series. Also
Cold Case, starts off investigating this long forgotten
case, episode two its a different case, just another
cop drama.
Perhaps it is unescapable then. And The O.C., failed
to be the acception. It just seemed to take the edge
of the series somehow. I guess I was hoping for a more,
lawyer and bad kid, working together. Yet by episode
two the reality has set in that he had a wife and son
and it was going to be another teen drama.
Quotes
Ryan: Do you always drink like that?
Marissa: I thought you left?

invitation probably got lost in the mail?
Seth: Summer's birthday is not till Wednesday. (Shrubs)
It's what I heard. Er, I, that's a guess.
Seth: Oh wow complaining, that's very interesting considering
nobody invited you.
Marissa: Before I came along, you were on a skateboard.
Seth: Your forcing me to live amongst these pod people
