I wasnt crying when this happened, i was sobbing and i cried all night and this morning too becasue i downloaded hallulujah and gotr all sentimental, this really had an impact on me and i really dont agree with what happened but that deqath scene deserves an academy award or something
I allways loved Ryan and Marissa as a couple. Me and my friends use to talk how the OC going to end, I mean "the big end". We allways said that Marissa and Ryan would live happily ever after and have kids.. But Josh is such a asshead taht he kill Marissa Cooper. I cant describe with words how sad I am.
R.I.P Marissa :(
By killing off Marissa Cooper, the entire storyline of the O.C. is changed. If Mischa Barton wanted off the O.C. there were other ways to write Marissa off for next season rather than killing her in a car accident. If the O.C. plans to continue on with this storyline they should have Marissa be in a coma because if she is dead there is no way for Mischa to come back if she wanted to or the O.C. needed her to. By putting her in a coma it gives the O.C. the flexibility to bring back Marissa somewhere down the road, allow Mischa Barton to guest star, and give the rest of the characters new storylines.
Mischa is major to the show! Some of the greatest moments were between Ryan and Marissa. She can go away and do the occasional episode for a year, but don't kill her off. It's Marissa and the fantastic four! Please save Marissa!
I understand that Marissa needed to leave the show as Mischa Barton wants to pursue a career in movies, BUT, they can still leave her alive! Save Marissa!
Marissa is a main part of the show. without her, you've honestly got nothing. She's pretty much the only character you can throw any storyline to, and it'll work.
Ryan and Marissa to me are the foundation of the whole OC show. Remove a piece and the whole show might very well collapse (something I’m pretty sure of). Problems concerning the other characters in the show never really intrigued me. I can elaborate on this fact just by pointing out the succes of the first season, which mostly concerned problems within the lives of Ryan and Marissa. The only reason I kept watching the 3rd season was because of the tragedy concerning Marissa, as Ryan’s character was pretty much toned down in the “bad boy” department except for maybe the final 2 or 3 episodes. Ending the show like this will generally be unaccepted by most OC fans, hence this petition, complaints to Fox and in the media. If Mischa Barton doesn’t want to do the OC thing anymore, then I’d suggest at least replacing her with another actress as I for one certainly won’t be watching for Kaitlin, Julie, Summer or another relapse from Kirsten. The OC needs a fresh story but this certainly isn’t the way.
It's such a sad situation to see a talented actor leave in such a cruel way! I'm upset at the way the season finale ended. Only Mischa Barton could portray Marissa Cooper so impeccably! Now that her character is deceased I'm not so sure I want to watch The O.C.in Season Four. The death of a major well-liked character will make the ratings go down because viewers won't want to watch it esp. if they're Marissa Cooper fans and therefore the show will nose dive downward. I'm sure that if Marissa were back there would be even higher ratings than ever! Marissa's character was excellent!!
I support this petition becuase she does not deserve to be taken off the show. I think that Marissa Cooper was the best thing that happened to this show and the way they killed was just not right. RYAN SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST SAID I LOVE YOU OR MARISSA SAY IT TO HIM! Like come on people she needs to stay on the show!!!!!!!
The show is nothing without her
She is the reason the show is great. It is like killing a character from Friends. The show just doesn't work without all of them.
Misha should be gratefull that the fans of the OC brought her to stardom and she should at least owe us fans a couple more seasons
I will not watch this show if marissa dies. She is my favorite girl on the show and Ryan and Marissa are my favorite couple and were the main reason i watched the show every thursday.
I will admit, at times I hated the character, Marissa Cooper on The OC. But the show can not go on without her and Ryan still loves and needs here and so does Summer.
