I bought the DVD as a Christmas present for my daughter, who said she'd like to see the series, after watching the first episode at school in a lesson. She enjoyed it so much that she is now getting the second series and will probably go on to watch the whole show. Although it's an old TV series, it still has all the usual factors of a soap opera. With a young cast as the main characters, it will appeal to current teenagers. It also covers issues they can relate to and hopefully learn from.
Was great until we got to the last 2 discs of series 1 and they were scratched and would not load. Frustrating watching a series and then missing the end. Wouldn't recommend buying unless you want to watch half a series.

I wanted this new OC Season 1 DVD, but instead got sent OC 2 USED, then didn't get refunded for my postage when I had to use my own time and money to send it back to them...then a couple of weeks later and no responses to my messages, I get sent the OC 1 in used scuffed condition! Ridiculous. Not had my postage refunded yet.

Why do we love the OC? Does it remind us of our own priveleged upbringings; enormous mansions, infinity pools and all? I doubt the majority of viewers drive BMW X5s to school. No, I would argue that it's the heart-rending tales of the trials and tribulations of young adulthood that draw us in. This series has really captured the mood of a generation. Despite their looks and wealth there is an underlying tension to these teenagers. There is an all-pervading sense of helplessness and hopelessness to the series. This is THE modern existential story, Seth Cohen cast as the Camus of the noughties. It looks like Fitzgerald updated for a new generation. Join them in their quest for the meaning of life, love and the universe. The series starts with Ryan, living with his mum and her abusive boyfriend, finding himself in trouble with the law. He is taken in by a wealthy lawyer with a heart of gold, and through living with his new family see a whole new side to life. The subtlety of the plot is wonderful as the street-tough Ryan becomes an innocent in this hedonistic yet baleful world. The series sees his journey over the next few months, the simultaneous repulsion and attraction of this new life. Excellent stuff, highly recommended.Vollständige Rezension lesen
