O.C. Lands on “The North Shore”

Wednesday nights will never be the same. At least until the fall of ‘04 they won’t. The FOX 9:00 PM spot on Wednesday nights no longer rocks the mic right as it did with the first season of the O.C. It’s over. It’s completely over. Ever since the O.C. ended, so has my life. What am I living for? I really don’t know. Okay, so there is at least something on TV to look forward to this summer besides the Bachelorette (which will be tiiiiigghhht). The 9 spot will be filled with the hot new show, The North Shore. Some claim it to be another 90210 spin off, set in a place that appeals to those wishing to escape the dismal realities of this pathetic place they like to call Cleveland. Others argue that it is just another jaded show featuring goodlooking college graduates acting as high school seniors. Some radicals even have the audacity to ask, how long can a show go on when in three years the majority of the cast will qualify for social security? But to me, I don’t believe in something like that. It’s going to be sick! The North Shore hits the TV scene in early June, and it will extend throughout the summer. The show is set in Hawaii, is roughly based on high school students’ jobs at a hotel, and their interactions not only with each other, but also with the guests. The North Shore is sure to be filled with drama, so don’t fight it when you’re sucked into the undertow. You’ll begin to drown into a fake reality that will satisfy all of your fantasies. To me, it’s going to be all right. You know, nothing redonkulous, but obviously something to fill that 9 o’clock hot spot. I’ll be watching. I’ll probably end up watching religiously, much like 80% of television shows aired in the past 5 seasons. Its pretty much going to be a girl oriented TV show. You should watch it, because it offers many benefits for you that you may not realize. It’s a great topic of conversation with chicks, and if you work it right, it will lead to bigger and better things. You can see how a situation goes down on The North Shore of Hawaii, and then when you face a similar situation, you can act accordingly. It’s just ill, dog. So, watch it. If you don’t watch it, I don’t really care. It’s your loss, not mine. Make fun of me for it, I don’t care. But don’t hate when your girlfriend starts to like me. Peace.
