The O.C.: Season 2

Devoted fans of The O.C. are sure to enjoy this Season Two DVD set. After last season's heart-tugging finale, the whole gang is back for junior year at Harbor, but Seth and Ryan find their girlfriends have moved on and found new loves. The guys are no slouches, either: A new lab partner spells romance for Ryan, and Seth falls for the wild and worldly manager at the Bait Shop. Meanwhile, the adults are in for lots of drama as Caleb and Julie have marital problems, both Sandy and Kirsten feel the urge to merge with other people, and even the Nana in Miami gets lucky...maybe. One main character will leave the O.C. for good and one (or two?) will die.What a season! The plotlines combine comedy and pathos effortlessly, the characters we came to love in season one continue to evolve, and the writing is superb. This DVD includes lots of behind-the-scene cool stuff and fun bloopers that were sadly missing from the season one DVDs. I wish there had been commentaries by the lead actors, but there are two by the creative staff that are quite interesting.

Season 2 is just as good as season 1, if not better. After the season 1 cliffhanger, the season opens with Seth Cohen somewhere in Oregon, refusing to come home to boring and snootie Orange County, now that all the fun has gone - see down to earth Ryan leaving the OC to become a dad back in Chino.The two boys gone, the girls, Marissa and Summer, waste away, one in anger (Summer), the other in pain and addiction (Marissa). To soothe the pain both girls get involved with other people and when the boys Seth and Ryan finally return, the plot thickens. It takes most of the season to sort the various love stories out and on the way we get treated to some very daring television in the Marissa story line and some very funny humor in the Seth/Summer saga.The adults in the story are very entertaining too in this season, especially the diabolical Mrs Cooper, the character we all love to hate ;-)We also get to meet Ryan's older brother, that throws more than one spanner in the works and is very much involved in the obligatory end of season cliffhanger.Waiting for season 2 to know how it all ends :-)

Alright, I will start this off by admitting that I am a 27 year old male and my friends gather once a year for an OC marathon weekend. I promise you it is much cooler than it sounds. Anyway, for the second annual this year we threw in season 2 after seeing that it was only $9.99 (now $11.99 at this writing). Let me tell you, while often overlooked as a letdown to a spectacular Season 1, Season 2 brings the heat. I think this has been forgotten over time. Clearly, it deserves a number 2 ranking (1,2,4, worst season ever: 3) in the OC season pantheon.Yes, there are some misses: Mallpisode, Any scene with Mischa Barton that did not include Olivia Wilde, Lindsay/Ryan awful romance, most of the Zach/Seth comic book stuff, and of course DJ trying to steal Ryan's thunder as Marissa's boyfriend who doesn't talk.But to judge a season you need to look at the hits, and there were many: Great Caleb season all around, Kiki's drinking problem (fresh margs anyone?), Olivia Wilde incredible breakout lesbian performance, The Bait Shop somehow becoming the number 1 performing venue in the country, Christmakkuh 2, Julie Coops, and Summer/Seth Spiderman scene. Plus, WHO KILLED CALEB? Spoiler.You could probably skip like 6-8 episodes (since theres 24 which is absurd) to enjoy this even more. I recommend drinking heavily while watching.

The second series is even better than the first IMO.Huge value, there are 24 episodes just in this season.There was no skipping/DVD damage, even though these discs were preloved.The plastic case for the first dvd is damaged so it doesn't keep the disc contained when the box is open and you are trying to swap discs around. But that's a very small problem, and acceptable considering this was a 2nd hand item. And since this was the only thing that was wrong with it. Some of the discs looked a bit less than pristine but didn't effect play.No spoilers here. Seth, Summer, Zach and Ryan and Marisa are now fully formed characters exploring their lives.The season ends on a huge shocking cliffhanger.

The OC is in fact the greatest show in my time it so interesting and its not boring *sopiler*in the season finale Ryan finds out about what happened with Trey and Marrisa and went over to Trey and fought him until Marrisa came and saw Trey chocking Ryan and she begged Trey to stop but didn't listen so Marrisa found the gun and shot Trey just about he was going to kill Ryan. Trey then falls and ryan gets up and stand by Marrisa as well as of seth and summer as they just got there and saw Trey on the ground and then the episode ends

i gave this product five starts. there are reasons why i choose this rating. one of them being i really love this show. i watched on soap net a few years ago and decided to buy the season 1 to watch everything from the beginning. i bought season 2 on amazon. its my first time buying a season online, i was skeptical but i'm glad i did so. the product was sealed and was in great condition. i was surprised and extremely pleased buy how awesome the condition was. and the season itself was spectacular!!!! love this show!!!!!!

I love this show and watch these DVDs overy and over. The first time I watched this show, I was wrapped up in the drama but now I watch for the fun stuff. Seth is so funny and Ryan steals my heart. The boys are so different but have a lot of the same values. They are good kids. You can't help but fall in love with this family. Definitely worth the money. Buy the entire season!!

The discs are fine, but the case is water damaged and cracked in some places. It looked like a used copy even though it was new. Just watch out for that. Again, the discs don't appear to be scratched or anything
