The O.C. Season 2 Photos

Josh Schwartz, the creator of The O.C., said that inspiration for the show came from being a fan of Larry Sanders, Cameron Crowe and other “quirky character-driven shows like Freaks and Geeks, Undeclared, and My So-Called Life“. He later said that the series was very much based on sort of the experiences he had when he was in college. “A Jewish kid from the East Coast, surrounded by all these kids from Newport Beach who were water-polo players, and these very blonde girls who only wanted to date them. I felt very much like an outsider.”

Season 2 continues to follow the tumultuous romantic relationships between Ryan and Marissa, Seth and Summer, as well as Sandy and Kirsten. The Bait Shop becomes a prominent social destination for the teenage characters. A number of recurring characters are introduced, such as D.J., Lindsay Gardner, Zach Stevens, and Alex Kelly, to which the main characters form a variety of relationships. Ryan’s brother, Trey Atwood, gets out of jail and threatens to bring Ryan’s old life into his new one. Sandy and Kirsten also face new conflicts after drifting apart during the summer.
