With The OC set to finally go off the air, non-fans of the dismal FOX series may finally get a chance to watch the one bright spot on that show shine elsewhere.

As for the cast member Reeser replaced as a mainstay, we guess an apology is in order for Mischa Barton. Here goes:

The truth often hurts.
