Experiment Time!

2005-12-06T15:53:00.000-05:00

This has nothing to do with OTH or The OC....Our teacher has asked that we do an experiment. This will better show us how Google uses PageRank algorithm to rank order search results, which is something that we have been learning about throughout the semester. If you are from the UK, I encourage you to check out this site, outdoor trampolines chester. It has a variety of toys and special offers. This is a good place to do some holiday shopping for the kids!

The OC Recap 12/1/2005

2005-12-06T12:29:00.000-05:00

Due to the endless amount of school work during finals week, this update is a little delayed! Also, I fell asleep during One Tree Hill due to ridiculous amounts of paper writing and studying for teachers such as nworbxela. Therefore, Ill only be providing a recap for The OC this week. The episode was called "The Game Plan". It pretty much revolved around Ryan, Marissa, Seth & Summer making college decisions. Turned out that Seth wanted to go east, but Summer wanted to stay on the West coast. In the end, Summer decided she would try a college on the east coast to keep their relationship from falling apart. Marissa was being her typical drama queen self and saying that she wouldn't get into college with her criminal history. A college counselor came to dinner with the Cohen's and Marissa and Ryan both decided they would apply to Berkley. I am very curious to see how the show will progess once they all graduate from high school. Towards the end of the episode, Marissa's new surfing friend Johnny gets hit by a car. Luckily he only has a torn ACL. This will definately halt his surfing career. There will be an all new episode this Thursday, December 8th. Hopefully things start to heat up, I am getting a little bored! Good luck with finals UD kids, especially the nworbxela one!

Love Hurts!

For those of you who watch OTH you know that Lucas has been chasing after Brooke all season. It finally seems that they're going to start dating since Lucas writes off a hot naked girl on the basketball court, aka Rachel the new girl. Next thing you know Lucas goes to Brooke's apartment to find her in bed with Chris Keller. He is quite the homewrecker, first Haley, now Brooke. I don't know about this kid. I am sure this breaks Lucas' heart because he was sure that Brooke was "the one." One Tree Hill won't be new next week due to the holiday, but you can catch the very 1st episode of the season instead!

The OC this week was not too exciting. Same old stuff, someone trying to fight Ryan, Julie being a crazy bitch, Marissa being the cause of most of it. One thing that has changed is that Seth seems to be in popular demand these days. Taylor Townsend has her eye on him and is determined on breaking him and Summer up. OC will be back on December 1st with a new episode. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! :)

Fantasy Boy Draft & The OC Heats up

2005-11-13T17:08:00.000-05:00

ONE TREE HILL

The 11/9 episode of One Tree Hill was one of the best this season. Brooke, head cheerleader, created a Fantasy Boy Draft so that the girls on the squad wouldn't fight over the same guy. Brooke's plan backfired when the newcomer, Rachel, snagged Lucas first.
This means that Brooke must keep her hands off of him for a while. This plot may have to do with the fact that Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray have a difficult time working together on the set since their seperation. I read in US Weekly that the producers will be rearranging scenes to cut down on the amount of time Sophia and Chad are on-screen together. Also this episode, Haylea and Peyton butt heads about Nathan while Dan tries to get as many votes as possible for mayor.

THE OC

This week there's trouble in paradise for Marissa and Ryan. Since Marissa's been in public school, she's met a new guy friend who Ryan is jealous of. This guy Johnny "understands" her. Meanwhile Johnny's girlfriend senses this connection and hooks up with another guy to spare herself getting hurt in the end. It might be a season of breakups....Taylor Townsend seems to have her eye on Seth. What will Summer do when she finds out?? She already hates the girl. At the Cohen house, Charlotte convinces Julie and Kirsten to have a benefit to raise money. While at dinner with Charlotte, Julie finds almost a dozen credit cards in Charlotte's purse under a different name. I knew this woman was trouble. We'll see next week if Julie decides to have the party and keep the money for herself!

Halloween Episode Recap

2005-10-31T11:28:00.000-05:00

*It's party time in Tree Hill! A masquerade ball at Tric provides the perfect opportunity for Haley to win back Nathan's heart, and for Brooke to seduce Lucas. Punk-pop sensation "Fall Out Boy" performs amidst the costume madness, while Peyton tries to come to terms with the new mother in her life. Meanwhile, Dan gives Deb an ultimatum, but soon finds she's a much more worthy opponent than he thought*

One Tree Hill started off slow this season but the action is starting to heat up. "Batman" in disguise kissed Haley at the Halloween party...but was it Nathan or her touring buddy?? Hopefully we will find out this week! Also, check out Fall Out Boy, they're pretty good :)

Also, on the One Tree Hill website, you can listen to Peyton's Podcast, which is something that we have been introduced to in class.

Reorganizing!

Well, I have come to realize that it is difficult blogging about 3 seperate shows. I noticed that one of my classmates is blogging about Desperate Housewives and doing a fantastic job keeping up on the latest episodes and gossip. Therefore I am going to direct you to Lauren's Blog so that I can focus more on The O.C and One Tree Hill. Also in response to a comment that I received from Heather, I have included a link in the sidebar about Entourage so that you can get all of your info there. Check out Heather's Blog too!

As the semester progesses, I have learned a lot about blogging and also about Wiki's. I have used Wikipedia on a few occasions outside of class. This is My Wiki, take a look!

Anyway back to the good stuff, The O.C does not start back up again until November 3rd. However, there will be a new episode of One Tree on tomorrow at its usual time! Stay tuned for an episode recap!

OTH is back...FINALLY!

2005-10-05T15:17:00.000-04:00

One Tree Hill comes back for its 3rd season tonight on the WB at 8/7c. Just incase you forgot what happened on the season finally last time...things between Lucas & Brooke heated up, a woman who claims to be Peyton's mom shows up, Dan's dealership goes up in flames, & Haley is dealt with choosing between her career & her husband. Tonight we will see what happens with all of these situations as everyone comes back to Tree Hill for a new school year. For more info on the characters & music from the show visit the official homepage! Very excited for this season, OTH is my favorite!

Wisteria Lane...back in full force

2005-09-30T16:58:00.000-04:00

Here is a Recap of the Desperate Housewives Premiere...
"You Could Drive a Person Crazy"
Susan is surprised, and not pleasantly so, when she finds out who Edie's new boyfriend is. Meanwhile Lynette goes back to work, leaving Tom at home in charge of the house, which turns out to be a better plan in theory. Bree's mother-in-law, Phyllis (guest star Shirley Knight), continues to drive Bree crazy with her melodramatic grieving, and Carlos makes an unusual request of Gabrielle.
My thoughts on this episode are that it really didn't get interesting until the very end when they showed someone in the new neighbors basement...let me know who you think it is!
In other entertainment news surrounding One Tree Hill it's been said that Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush have split after 5 months of marriage...yea now he can marry me.

This Week on OC...

2005-09-24T01:55:00.000-04:00

The O.C was fabulousssss this week. I thought that Marissa's dad was done for but then he turned up alive. I guess that's why they always featured him as a "special appearance" by Tate Donovan. Marissa can't seem to get a break....so she will probably end up being pregnant with Ryan's baby...Meanwhile he already has a baby with his ex-gf. What a winner. This episode was way better than last weeks! Stay Tuned...

Gotta Love Drama

2005-09-14T12:36:00.000-04:00

The season premiere of OC was fabulouss! Turns out Trey doesn't die and Julie (Marissa's mom) doesn't want her to take the blame for shooting Trey. Julie is such a witch, but I guess she is the one who makes everything exciting! Julie offers Trey 20 grand to take the blame off Marissa and put it on Ryan. Even though Trey takes this money at first, in the end he writes a confession that it was in fact Marissa who shot him. In Kirsten's world, she is not sure if she is ready to come home, even though the rehab center thinks she has progressed greatly. This new character Charlotte, one of Kirsten's rehab friends, seems to have something up her sleeve but I haven't quite figured it out yet. Hopfully we will find out tomorrow!
