The O.C.: “The Chrismukk-Huh?”
It's Chrismukkah in July! Louie Rendon of The Mixed Reviews (who's appropriately recording from his beach vacation) heads to sunny California for this teen drama's It's a Wonderful Life homage, featuring an alt-world coma dream during the holidays where Ryan (Ben McKenzie) never came to Newport Beach! We talk about the legacy of this hugely popular but weirdly forgotten series, along with the difference between Mischa Barton and Rachel Bilson, the Chris Pratt jump scare, the "just a little nap" approach to a coma, and why Autumn Reeser's Taylor is a queer icon.
