Star Wars Sith Trailer and the O.C.
williamw83 writes "CNN is reporting that the Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith trailer will make its debut during none other than Fox's "The O.C." The article is candid in pointing out that 'as an avid superhero fan, Seth Cohen, the main character of "The O.C." played by Adam Brody, would likely relish the event.' The trailer will air during the March 10 episode, at sometime between 8 and 9PM EST. The article also makes note for those not wishing to tune into the TV drama that "the new trailer will be released in movie theaters beginning March 11.""
Sweeps months are November, February, and May. How can you tell without looking at the calendar? Listen to your local news for lead-ins of the nature, "Something in your kitchen cabinet can KILL you! More after sports." Or "Think your local restaurant is safe and germ free? You'll be throwing up after this story."
It has no redeeming qualities ???
Not that I'm a fan or anything, but would it hurt to do a little bit of research first? The oldest "kid" on the show is played by an actor in his late 20s (1978). the youngest is actually the correct age (1986). None of the "kids" are late-30s. Late-20s, maybe, and I agree that's a little weird having an actor play 10+ years younger than he/she is, but late-20s is a lot closer to teens than late-30s.
This blog (just a little down on the page) seems to contain the entire story line for Episode 3. The movie looks ok. Massive Spoiler though.
had constant guest appearances by bands
include music from the Top 40
have a lesbian storyline with two hot girls who are main characters
a Spiderman movie homage at the end of last episode.
Basically this show does anything to keep on top, and I love it!
Yep, that's exactly the point of the show.
The O.C. is a soap opera. But it's a soap opera that doesn't take itself seriously, knows it's ridiculously overblown, often has comedy moments for the sake of comedy moments, has much better production values than the average soap and even mocks itself. It isn't The West Wing, but it isn't trying to be.
I would also like to point out to people that the show is called The O.C. because the original name, Orange County, was used in a certain 2002 Jack Black movie and using the same name would just be asking for trouble.
The Australian Wiggles are not the same as those in America. In Australia they are pretty watchable, at least my 4-yo thinks so.
