FAQs

Why did The O.C. get canceled? ›

It was widely referred to as a pop cultural phenomenon and received mostly positive reception from critics. However, ratings declined as the show went on. The low ratings led to its cancellation in early 2007, even after an online petition that gained over 700,000 signatures.

In the end, despite Taylor and Ryan's affection for each other, Taylor calls things off until she can become a more independent person. She seeks out help from a therapist, but realizes that her and Ryan are right for each other and they get back together.

5 months after Marissa's death, Ryan's life has changed completely. He didn't attend her funeral, and left the Cohens' house. He is in a very, very dark place and throws out all of the photos with Marissa on it. He's working as a bartender, and lives in the slum behind the bar.

Savage said that the decision to kill off Marissa stemmed from network pressure over ratings. She said: "We were also under tremendous pressure to do something with that level of drama. Killing a series regular came down from the top." "If we wanted a season four, we'd have to do something like that," she added.

It still had some twists and turns; but it wasn't so dark and the same thing over and over again. Content collapsed. Season 4 is so different than the other 3 seasons, it's terrible. I know they had to change things because of Marissa's death but the storylines are just bad.

Why is season 3 of The O.C. so bad? ›

Critics Reviews

Ah, growing pains. The characters and the series had 'em in season 3, which struggled to balance Marissa's (Barton) bizarre-but-blessed demise with college prep, pot smoking, and loads of superjuicy Julie Cooper one-liners. Content collapsed.
