About this episode
WELCOME TO THE O.C. BITCH! Gaius and Jackson are looking back at The O.C. for its 20th anniversary, a series that began running on August 5, 2003, and concluding after four seasons and 92 episodes. Starring Ben McKenzie, Adam Brody, Mishca Barton, Rachel Bilson, Peter Gallagher, Kelly Rowan, Melinda Clarke, and Tate Donovan, the series centers on Ryan Atwood, a troubled and gifted young man from a broken home who is adopted by the wealthy Cohen family in the high-class world of Newport Beach. The duo look back at the phenomenon the show became, its impact on pop culture, how it influenced future teen shows moving forward and how it holds up today. In addition to The O.C., the pair also cover news at the top of the show regarding Twitter users thinking Sandra Bullock should give her Oscar back for The Blind Side due to the real family’s recent drama, the controversy over Maestro and its alleged use of ‘Jewface’ and Bonnie Aarons wanting fair compensation over merchandising for her likeness being used in The Nun.
