Post by: MasterShake on February 11, 2005, 07:34:58 PM

Okay so everyday I go to school everyone is always raving about this show  The OC I've never seen and episode the only thing I know is that there are or is a lesbian in it....So my question is why is it such a hott topic.

It's the first straight up soap opera that has made it into the prime time slots?  

90210 came close but it was about teens so...

What about Melrose Place? I can't claim to have seen it, but it always seemed pretty soapy to me.

Melrose Place was over the top soap. But prime time soaps have a loooong history. Dallas, anyone? Dynasty? But I suppose the OC is a teen prime time soap. 90210 was definitely a soap by the end. I liked it when it first started, but then it turned into a junior Melrose.
