Goodbye, teen soap opera. You were too good for this world.
According to articles at both Broadcasting and Cable and TV Week, Fox has pulled the plug on “The O.C.” after four seasons.
It premiered to “must-see” ratings and even critics loved its ability to capture an audience that crossed generations. Since then, every season has declined in ratings (and some would say quality...)
Said Josh Schwartz, the show’s creator: “This feels like the best time to bring the show to its close. Thanks to the hard work of our cast, crew and writers, we have enjoyed our best season yet, and what better time to go out than creatively on top. It has been an amazing experience and a great run. For a certain audience, at a certain time, The O.C. has meant something. For that, we are grateful."
The show's last episode will air Feb. 22nd. You can always check out the latest in cancelled TV at our sister-site brilliantbutcancelled.com.

I cant believe the O.C. ever got cancelled. I loved that show and have ever episode on dvd but i wish it was still on T.V. The O.C. is hands down the best show I've ever seen and it should still be on.
