a season recap

This past weekend I went into a wedding and got a chance to talk TV with a friend from college. I hadn't seen him in years but it felt like old times. Jon's a regular television viewer and is rather passionate about what he watches. I think part of him wanted to be spending the weekend at a Buffy the Vampire Slayer convention. Jon was pretty excited to continue the conversation and write something for balgavy.com. So for discussion by everyone, here are Jon D. Bohland's thoughts on the television season that just ended:

Jon's Season Recap

Here's a highlight:

"The O.C. (Fox)-There are so many things that I love about this show. The Bob Seger references, Seth’s witty and nervous ramblings, Marisa’s drinking and her drama-queenish behavior, the Seth/Summer/Anna love triangle, the constant fights Ryan gets into, the Luke/Marisa’s mom affair, Peter Gallagher’s eyebrows…..I could go on and on. Like 90210 a decade ago, I suspect this will be the show that launches about ten other “clones” attempting to cash in on what the youth are watching. I went to a dinner party over X-Mas and found myself chatting with a 16 year old girl about how great this show was. I think she thought Ryan was pretty hot (he is, though he did go to U Va., which is an obvious strike against him). This is the show can truly unite the world and bring about global peace.
