Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review Since its debut in 2003, US teen drama iThe OC/i captivated audiences with its fresh dialogue, clever wit, steamy storylines and the mesmerising power of Peter Gallagher's eyebrows! During its four-year run it became a trendsetting force in terms of popular fashion and music tastes among teenagers worldwide, and it will remain a series regarded with great affection by many of its audience. Following the trials and tribulations of a misfit collection of rich and glamourous residents of Newport Beach, California, iThe OC/i was at times witty, moving and downright bizarre, often in the same episode. Storylines were at times laughable, but somehow it still managed to carry it off, due perhaps to the acting ability of its ensemble cast. And when the show eventually came to an end, with just 16 episodes made in the final season, the finale encapsulated what many audiences already knew - that despite the show's popularity and cultural impact, it never took itself too seriously. br For the first time, all four seasons are brought together in one box set, comprising 28 discs with every episode and some bonus extras such as unseen OC footage and iThe Atomic County/i comic. i--Sally Giles/i

Great show, too September 21, 2008 Geo Blorge (East Morton, UK) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful Come on, people, where is your sense of fun? Critics around the world flock to shows like The Wire and The Sopranos, citing them as the only 'worthy' programmes on TV. Yes, they are exceedingly well made, but TV shows excel in different ways. The OC is funny, touching drama. It's easy to watch, but wickedly smart at the same time. br / br /These four seasons ran between 2003-2007, and if you go back to the early episodes, you see that it's becoming a product of its time. For anyone who was at the apex of their youth during those years, it was essential viewing, even though storylines tended to repeat themselves and certain guest characters dragged the life out of it. br / br /I get a little bit fazed by people who criticise shows like The OC, though. It's not really about grand, overarching storylines and a commentary on the changing state of capitalism - it's a witty show that centres on character, above plot. Accept this, and The OC is a great deal of fun for every one of these 92 episodes. br / br /This boxset does the series an unusual amount of justice; really, I've never seen anything like it. Designed as a sort of scrapbook, with tons of stills and episode pics blazed across shiny, high-quality paper, the book is bound by a holographic hardcover, and slides into an epic plastic case. The discs are a part of the book, which is also very cool. It's the best-looking TV boxset ever, by quite some way. br / br /Throw in an introduction by creator Josh Schwartz, as well as a nostalgic conversation between him and Executive Producer Stephanie Savage, and the passionate conception of this boxset is undeniable. WB have chucked in all of the extras from the US releases, too (aside from having season 1 in Widescreen. Balls), so it really does feel like the complete OC experience. br / br /I could babble about the show, but I may as well leave it to you. Putting in simple terms, however, I have watched a great deal of TV shows in my life - we're talking hundreds, here. In all of those hours of viewing, though, I've never gotten as attached to characters as I did with Ryan, Seth, Summer, Marissa, Sandy, Kirsten, Julie, Jimmy, Taylor and Kaitlin. br / br /Maybe that's just my age talking, or maybe it's because the show is far more than a frivolous teen drama, as everyone always assumes. br / br /Just buy the boxset, and find out yourself. OMG!!!! Fantastic a definate recommendation November 29, 2008 M. Saramandif (UK) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful Seriously! This was the most amazing DVD boxset (or bookset) that I have ever come across. Months of seaching for a DVD boxset that will incude all the seasons ever made was bulky and expensive. Having all the seasons in a few CDS and with a book to go with it was amazing. I would definately recommend this to anyone who loves the OC as much as I do. brilliant December 29, 2007 A. Caddy 10 out of 14 found this review helpful i didnt own any of the seasons but had watched the first 3, i bought this and it is brilliant, has loads of extra's and the box it comes in is very good, easy to get to all episodes and each one has little summary so can remember which episode you are on, recommend this to anyone likeing The OC. AMAZING! November 27, 2007 J. Evans (UK) 11 out of 21 found this review helpful I allready have all 4 seasons.. if i didnt i would get this!!! br / br /ALL 4 SEASONS on 28 DISKS!! br / br /The OC was good! and season 4 i thought was one of the best! br / br /im saying this as a TEENAGER! the person below obv doesnt like the oc because they are older? and a bit sad to write a really long reaview! br / br /if u like the oc.. and only havw 1 box set or less.. i would buy this! br / br /=] br /THGE O.C ROCKS! br / br /now the oc has gone try ONE TREE HILL! not as good but... br / There is a perfect Serie, and that is "The O.C." December 13, 2008 M. R. Jesus (Portugal) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Well, i got this a day ago, and i love the series since it got out on the tv. I get stuck on the series since the first episode. I liked the actors, the storys, the music, the need to see more and more.. And one day it all ends. br / br /If i have to name just one serie like the best, with no doubts ill say that it's The O.C. .. br / br /About this box, is kinda awesome, every each episode from the 4 seasons, and a lot of special features. Well i have a little collection of Dvd movies, but this was my best choose. br / br /If you are a lover of "The O.C." so this boxset is for you. br / br /Regards, Miguel K.
