Fox cancels ‘The OC’

The writing has been on the wall for the past year and today Fox finally announced that they are canceling the once popular The OC.
After killing off their most famous character, turning Summer into a hippie, and forcing Ryan to fight just about everybody who looked at him the wrong way, the folks behind “The OC” have finally thrown in the beach towel.
“The OC” was an overnight sensation when it first debuted in 2003. But darker plotlines led to a departure from what the show did best — lighthearted comedy mixed with teen angst — culminating in the death of Mischa Barton’s character last season, and now the death of the series.
The final episode will air February 22nd. The show dominated the ratings just two seasons ago. I saw a few episodes starting last year and I was never too impressed by ‘The O.C.’ I am sure Fox has something sexier and more sensational in the wings to replace it.
