So I was wondering when Daniel made the shift from floppyhair to I'm-a-grownup hair
Hmm. Between S2 and 3? S3 and 4?
RivkaT had a great essay months ago on her LJ about fandom's "floppy haired boys". I can't remember the details about the essay, but I bet Daniel is a pretty good fit to the archetype.
I kind of lost The O.C. love during the Oliver arc. Everybody's become so freakin' tiresome--the only persons about whom I give a shit now are Summer and Sandy. If it doesn't improve soon, I may drop it all together, since it's a bother to remember to tape it while Angel being TiVo'd anyway. Bah.
Hmm. Between S2 and 3? S3 and 4?
Between the second-to-last and last episode of S2 - the short hair shows up for the first time in the they're-all-frozen clip show and oh my God I really know too much about this show.
Oliver's good in that he brings out the worst in Ryan - he's gone from the diamond in the rough to a possessive, impulsive dunderhead. And I still think Natalie is the nickname Oliver gave his left hand.
I think the impulsive dunderhead was always there. I've loved that about him.
As for possessive -- he
is
right, after all.
And I still think Natalie is the nickname Oliver gave his left hand.
This may be the only reason I ever re-watch the Oliver-centric scenes.
I have actually been more intersted in Oliver's story since reading that one link in Natter about him being the male femme fatal/Val of the O.C.
Can someone recap me on Emily Valentine? My 90210 memory is very choppy.
She was Brandon's girlfriend and then went psycho and burned/vandalized a homecoming float. I think it was suggested that she was bipolar? Very cute girl with choppy blonde hair.
That's as much as I remember.
Was she the blond who stole his Minnesota Twins t-shirt and then ended up on ER for a while?
All I can remember about Emily Valentine is that the actress went on to play a firefighter somewhere and she dated Jason.
Bits of the plot are now coming back to me, however.
Thanks.

Oliver. O.C. kids deserve him. They're not manipulative enough.
