Notre créateur de The OC a donné une interview pour le site "BuddyTv"!!
Je vous propose de vous faire part d'une de ses réponses :
BTV: I agree that season 4 has been the best since season one. Do you think some of that is because of Marissa's death and how it forced all the characters to deal with it and react in their own, unique way?
JS: Absolutely. It's one of the big reasons why we felt like we needed to do something to kind of shake the show off its foundation at the end of last year. I think another issue last year that everyone was feeling, the writers and cast included, was that especially a show like this, where you don't have cops or lawyers or doctors or franchisers to go to, you kind of live and die by your relationships and those stories. And, for the first time, the show started to feel a little formulaic and predictable last year in some of those dynamics, in that we had to make a change that would liberate both the show and some of the characters. And once it became clear what we needed to do, what was the way to do that that was most organic to those characters, and in the case of Marissa, who was a tragic character, and it felt like her death was sort of inevitable.
When you trace back, the first time you meet that character is when she's passed out in her driveway from drinking. So, it's not a reflection at all of Mischa; she was a huge part of the show and she's been missed this year. But it definitely felt like we needed to change up the dynamics so that the show could be liberated and go into some sort of new and heretofore unseen stories.

Il dit en gros, que la mort de Marissa était inévitable car c'est LE personnage dramatique de la série. Il rappelle que la 1ère fois qu'on la vu, elle était entrain de fumer devant chez elle!!!
Il explique bien que si la saison 4 est autant bien ficelé que la saison 1 ça n'a rien à voir avec le départ de Mischa. Elle faisait partie intégrante du show et était très importante! Il dit que bien sûr elle manque à la série cette année, mais que le show avait besoin de la mort de Marissa, pour rendre la série plus dynamique. Sa mort a pour but de créer de nouvelles intrigues et de libérer le show...
