I just wish she had a better storyline that season

I thought Marissa's season 3 arc was pretty realistic.

She was struggling a lot with Trey assaulting her and the shooting and then her friend dying.

Her becoming 'lost' and going off the rails was expected. A pretty natural response for a teen.

It just sucks that when she was starting to get her life back on track she was killed off

**stlavin95** · 09-21-2018, 10:15 PM

That's true, but I wasn't a fan of the Johnny arc and her relationship with Volcheck

ant31 · 09-22-2018, 07:09 AM

Agreed!

But the Volchok relationship was just a part of her self-destructive behavior.

I really wonder how the season would've ended if they hadn't decided to kill off Marissa.

**stlavin95** · 09-22-2018, 03:46 PM

I wonder that too

**fall into your smile** · 09-24-2018, 02:47 PM

Maybe she would've actually gone off with her dad?

**stlavin95** · 09-24-2018, 03:36 PM

Yeah, possibly

If only

**stlavin95** · 09-24-2018, 07:28 PM

That would have been so much better

**fall into your smile** · 09-26-2018, 02:07 PM

Without a doubt.

Sucks that we had to lose a good and loved character for them to learn their lesson.

The Ghost of Marissa Cooper Still Haunts Them

As it should. It’s hard to think about Marissa Cooper, the girl next door with sad-doe eyes and spectacular hair, without sobbing your eyes out. And it's comforting to know that Coop's death in the Season 3 finale -- arguably the show's most divisive scene -- still haunts Schwartz and Savage.

"It's complicated," Schwartz said. "There were a lot of factors involved, and it was something we really wrestled with. There were a lot of reasons, both creative and cynical. Steph and I, we still talk about it. What we found was, and this was a really good lesson for us, if somebody posts something online, it's a one-to-one ratio. They are not speaking for 1,000 people."

In the pre-Twitter era of TV, Schwartz admitted that the reaction to Marissa's death took him by surprise. "The people who were the most vocal online weren't speaking for everyone, and we realized that people were very attached to that character. There was a lot of anger and fan art that came our way."

It really does

I can't believe he let a bunch of people complaining on the internet determine whether or not to kill off one of his main characters.
