Join Melinda and CG for an enlightening conversation with Autumn as they discuss challenges, joys and lessons learned in this journey we call life.

    Jun 27 2024
    Ahoy, mateys! Picture this: young Ryan Atwood, stuck in the posh port of Newport Beach, ready to swap schoolbooks for a sailor's life, thanks to that scallywag Dean Hess branding him a brute. Meanwhile, Kirsten’s whipping up a breakfast so fancy it’d make Blackbeard blush, but the lads abandon it faster than a pirate fleeing a bath. Summer, crafty as a sea fox, plots against Taylor and Hess, turning their secret tryst into a shipwreck. Enter Captain Sandy, with a plan sharper than a parrot's beak, forcing Hess to walk the academic plank and saving Ryan’s future. Just as Ryan's about to hoist anchor, he realizes his true treasure isn’t gold or jewels but Marissa. So, he stays anchored in Newport, proving even pirates can find love on dry land.

    OC Rewind: 43rd - The Telenovela (S1E20)
    Jun 20 2024
    It's #43 in our countdown with Special guest OC writer Cory Martin! This episode is aptly entitled The Telenovela. Ryan and Marissa awkwardly try to be "just friends" post-breakup, but things get spicy when Theresa shows up with a secret engagement ring and a whole lot of baggage. Seth is done with Summer's undercover lover act and stages an over-the-top declaration, turning their love life into a public spectacle worthy of Telemundo. Julie and Luke’s fling thing continues under the radar, but Julie’s getting jumpy juggling this and clueless Caleb, who mistakes booty calls for romantic gestures.

    May 23 2024
    As the final days of winter break trickle away, our band of reluctant Atomic County heroes begrudgingly convene at the Bait Shop for one last taste of freedom before the grip of their final high school semester reclaims them. They are determined to “Free Marissa” from the clutches of Newport Union and thrust her back into the manufactured utopia of Harbor High to “Graduate. In the midst of this teenage turmoil, Julie and Neil stumble through the awkward pas de deux of their post-divorce existence. With the stakes higher than Seth's caffeine intake, Sandy's daring plan becomes the last hope for our beloved core four to restore harmony to the hallowed halls of Harbor High."
