Okay, I'm sure I'm not the only Aussie here who loves Ben. Or Ryan. Anything to do with Ben.

Anyone else?

. Nice thinking-

yeah i read where Ben said he would go on neighbours if it meant that the O.C wouldn't get cancelled again....

so adorable

Thanks!

I loved that quote of his... perfect Aussie title. It's so cool. And imagining Ben/Ryan in Ramsay Street is such a funny thought

.

yeah - but he would fill the void of hot boys on the show

i am so excited that we get O.C twice next week- maybe we will get the second season sooner than we thought-

Ben would be the only decent looking guy in it

My_Completeness · 09-08-2004, 12:36 PM

Hummingbird · 09-08-2004, 01:32 PM

um there is a two page article on the O.C in this weeks NW. Its kinda knockingthe cast tho, saying they are all ganging up on Mischa blah blah-

spent cigarette · 09-09-2004, 04:58 AM

Ahh yes. I've heard about that. But apparently Mischa's being a by0tch to them too.

For those who have been watching the OC from the pilot... has anyone noticed his hair? And how in like every ep, it just grows longer and longer at the front...

Rewatch the Pilot. See the difference.

~Courtney~ · 09-09-2004, 05:06 AM

yeah i've noticed his hair thing - but i think it gets better as the season goes on....but he always looks hot

yeah the NW thing was making it out like Ben was a bitter ex boyfriend or whatever.

*reaallly* they should put a two page article on him in there-

yeah i saw that article - i thought it was funny how dramatic they were trying to make it- pleaze

i love bens hair longer

spent cigarette · 09-10-2004, 11:53 AM

The longer hair makes him look more mature... and yummy.

If it is possible.

I haven't actually read that article, but rumors about Mischa not getting along with the rest of the cast have been around for some time. What types of things did they mention?

~Courtney~ · 09-10-2004, 12:18 PM

it's really long so ill just type the main points(*) and my add ins(~)

from the mag NW

Quote:

article title:

Mischa rocked by jealous taunts
~the british beauty is left devistated after being shunned by O.C co-stars.

*Rising star Mishca Barton has become the victem of an alienation campaign by jelous castmates on the hit U.C show The O.C. the 18-year old who plays Marissa, has fast become the standout star of the popular drama series, and is being made to pay the price by her envious coworkers.

This was painfully obvious onstage at the teen choice awards, where their previously private feud turned public. Mischa stood well away from the rest of the cast as they accepted a group award
~then they go on for ages about how the rest of them were joking and she arrived late to avoid them

*The frosty situation between the two camps is being blamed on Mischa growing 'in-demand' status, as well as the break up of her relationship with benjamin. It's believed the rest of the O.C cast are green with envy over her red-hot career......~(blah blah about rachel being offered American Pie 4 etc)

*The tense situation has reached a point where Mischa and the rest of the cast rarely speak outside their scripted lines. "While Ben, Adam and Rachel may joke amongst themselves, Mischas into looking at magazines or talking to her boyfriend on her cellphone" reports an on-set insider. "They're not nice to Misch, and Mischa isn't nice to them. It's like a freezer".....

*Adding to the feeling of aminousity, according to the source, is the fact that rachel, Adam and Banjamin believe that Mischa has been less than humble about her newfound star status, allowing the increasing success to go to her head.....
~then about inappropriate comments she makes about her costars ~ too curvy, not good looking etc.

*"Mischa's high profile romance with Brandon is being cited as another sore point between the once friendly camps-especially after her bust up with co-star Benjamin, 25"

*"Mischa was really tight with the rest of the cast when the show first started," the insider reveals. "But after she and Ben split up, she really changed her life. Ben and Rachel and Adam still go out together- but not with Mischa. She spends all her time with Brandon"

....then about how its turning into the set of 90210

thats pretty much it
