Notre Dame Students love drama, and not just the drama that is happening around them. Notre Dame Students are enthralled with Teen Dramas on television. At the height of its existence, The OC was the biggest television show on campus. No meeting, class, party, or dinner could be scheduled during the FOX drama, and it was required television for any student who wanted to be with it.
For two solid years, Notre Dame Students were enthralled with the hijinks of Seth, Ryan, Summer, and Marissa, hanging on every move of the beautiful foursome. Then it all unraveled. Caleb died, Trey was shot, Ryan punched the dean, and Johnny fell off a cliff. Notre Dame Students became less and less interested in the adventures of the gang in Newport, and drama had to be found in other places.
Since The OC was cancelled, Notre Dame Students have had to look to other means to get their fix of drama. While some students have just continued to get their OC fix by watching reruns on SoapNet, others have started watching shows such as Gossip Girl, 90210, and Friday Night Lights to satisfy the teen drama fix. While these shows might be just as entertaining as The OC was, none of them has succeeded in capturing the imagination of Notre Dame Students like The OC did, once upon a time.
