I'm just Wild(e) about Olivia

I will now dedicate this entry to all things Olivia Wilde or as I've come to call her: "The O.W." I knew she was going to be a star once I laid eyes on her during last season's failed Romeo and Juliet meets Larry Flynt farce known as 'Skin.' Even when FOX mercifully pulled the plug on that show faster than you can say, "Her father is the district attorney," I knew that someone over there was goin to make sure that the OW's star would continue it's meteoric ascent.
So when I learned that she was going to be on the OC this season I knew that all was right in tv land and was grateful for Josh Schwartz creating this guilty of guilty pleasures.
Needless to say the OW solidified her place in The O.C. with her performance this week when she proceeded to not only kiss the beer man (Homer) but her female colleague at the Bait Shop within the first 10 minutes of the show as well. After that display I was at critcal mass. Thankfully I was able to get a hold of my bearings in time to learn that Marisa was heading the annual SN"O.C" winter dance. On a side note: with so much jail bait running around this show I can't think of a more appropriate name for a main gathering point for the show as well as the place of employment for the OW. Okay where was I? Oh yeah, I was getting a little ahead of myself... Anyway, looking to strike while the iron was hot Seth asked Alex (Olivia) to go with him to the dance only to be 'served' by the OW who promptly vetoed that request therefore leading to the fireworks that I alluded to before. But with the help of Summer, who informed him that Alex was givig him the old Hot/Cold play, Seth was able to gain the upper hand by playing cold as well, quitting his duties at The Bait Shop.
Meanwhile, Zack oversees them huddling up and is fuming over what he perceives as Seth and Summer continuing to perpetuate whatever it is that exists between them. This leads to Zack blowing Summer off when she asks him about the dance, leaving her to ponder the error of her ways.
Well it's getting really late and I have to get up early so I'll have to continue the rest of this week's synopsis in a few days. I'll leave you with the end as it pertains to the OW. After rescuing Seth from the lame Zack attack, Cohen uses his boyish charm not to mention his "twin ambassadors of pain" to disarm Alex leading them to a major make out seesion at the Bait Shop. Unfortunately, with the arrival of the OW, I must say that I am now really jealous of Adam Brody. He was my favorite character until he unwittingly became the luckiest man in tv (honorable mention goes to Jesse Metcalf). Damn you Seth Cohen, damn you!
