Yay!<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t believe there&#8217;s only 2 more episodes of <i>The OC<\/i> left before it&#8217;s OVER. This season has been so great compared to the last two and I&#8217;m so sad to see it go. *sob* I&#8217;m especially sad that I won&#8217;t be able to see anymore of Ryan and Taylor&#8217;s story. I never thought about the pairing prior to this season (I can&#8217;t help it &#8212; I loved Marissa) so I was pleasantly surprised when the show brought them together and I fell in love. They&#8217;re so different (Taylor&#8217;s overwhelming while Ryan&#8217;s passive) yet they just work. And I don&#8217;t know that I&#8217;ve ever seen Ryan so happy before. The way he looked at Taylor when he said &#8220;I love you&#8221; in the last episode was absolutely swoon-worthy. Actually, they had a ton of great scenes in <i>The Shake-Up<\/i>:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; After getting drunk, Taylor says she&#8217;s going to sleep and Ryan knows she&#8217;s pretending&#8230; &#8220;Are you pretending to go to sleep thinking I&#8217;ll tell you I love you while you&#8217;re unconscious?&#8221; HEE! *Such* a Taylor thing to do.<br \/>\n&#8212; Before Ryan says &#8220;I love you,&#8221; he sweeps her bangs to the side while looking at her adoringly. GUH. THIS KILLED ME DEAD.<br \/>\n&#8212; At the end of the episode (but before the earthquake!!!), Ryan says it again&#8230; &#8220;I love you&#8230; and I don&#8217;t want to lose you. So let&#8217;s put it all on the table. Berkeley, Paris, Oxford&#8230; anything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>LOVE THEM. Ben McKenzie and Autumn Reeser have great chemistry together.<\/p>\n<p>I should also mention that Willa Holland has totally impressed me this season. I didn&#8217;t like Kaitlin at all last season. She had a bad attitude and misbehaved simply because she wanted to get a reaction from those around her. But this season, the writers have really given her layers and Willa&#8217;s done a great job of portraying Kaitlin as manipulative (clown porn!) yet caring (all her scenes with the Bullit) and vulnerable (her short-lived relationship with Chris Brown). So I&#8217;ve definitely warmed up to the character but in the last episode, when she was yelling at Julie and said &#8220;In the last year we lost Dad, Marissa, Dr. Neil&#8230;,&#8221; that&#8217;s when I finally understood her and loved her for it.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, <i>The OC<\/i>, I&#8217;m going to miss you so.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I&#8217;ve finally caught up with all 13 episodes of <i>Brothers and Sisters<\/i>. Just in time to catch Emily VanCamp&#8217;s episode next week. I really love this show. From Justin&#8217;s rebelliousness, to Kevin&#8217;s secret relationship with Chad, and to Nora&#8217;s general wackiness&#8230; it&#8217;s all great. I can&#8217;t wait to see how EVC&#8217;s character, Rebecca, interacts with the rest of the Walker clan.<\/p>\n<p>A few Grammy comments&#8230;<br \/>\nJohn Mayer, cut your hair, please. Thanks.<br \/>\nI find T.I. kinda hot. Is that weird?<br \/>\nRobyn Troup is SO DAMN LUCKY. I want to HUG Justin too. \ud83d\ude00<br \/>\nSquee!
