The hippest of the pop

After I wrote that last post, I proceded to watch the entire season of Rockville CA, because it was moderately awesome. The main character, Hunter (Fisher from Greek, do I sense a trend with thes names?), mentioned Gossip Girl in one of the episodes and I was like "Ah! Show crossover!  Josh Schwartz, I love you!"  

Oh and going along with show crossovers, my sister told me that if the Lily show, supposedly going to be called Lily, which I think is supremely lame, gets picked up, young Sandy and Kirsten Cohen might show up!!!!!  I wanted to put more exclamation points to show how excited that makes me.  I love them both SO MUCH.  And Kirsten definitely was in SoCal in the 80s.  I'm not sure about Sandy.  Seth was definitely born in '88, since he graduated high school the same year I did.  And I think Sandy and Kirsten were pretty young when he was born. So, yup, young adults in SoCal in the 80s!  

But back to Rockville.  OC alum/Privileged proprieter Michael Cassidy, who played Zach in second season of The O.C. showed up.  He was a douche, which is something I don't really see in him.  Even though I didn't like him on The O.C.  Not because he was bad, but because I wanted Summer to be with Seth.  

Also, Holly's boyfriend, Henry, from What I Like About You was on my new internet hit. I have seen him in something else too, but my mind is blanking.

I really also wanted to write about Veronica Mars because I just finished watching the
entire show, and now I'm upset it was cancelled. It may not have been at its
peak when it went under, but it was still a good show. In one of the episodes, Paul Rudd guest starred.  In another, they made a great in-joke about Rob Thomas from Matchbox Twenty vs. Rob Thomas, VM creator.  And Kristen Bell was fantastic.


The connection between VM and RCA?  Ryan Hansen.  I don't hate him anymore, because since he always plays the douche character, it makes it more believable that he knows what he is doing.  Also, Rockville CA does this brilliant thing, where all of the other characters simply call Ryan Hansen's character "the Douche."  

The end.

  1. Michael Cassidy also played a douche in that really weird show Palm something on the CW (WB?) that lasted for one season. I like when he plays the nice boy much better, mainly because then I can pretend that we can date. Also, another set of cameos on Veronica Mars was Alia Shawkat and Michael Cera from Arrested Development! YAY! And also, the younger Casablancas boy, who I can't remember his name right now, is featured in Nylon's Young Hollywood Issue, so he's makin' a comeback, too. ALSO YAY FOR KIRSTEN AND SANDY, but, seriously? They were at Berkley!
