I really enjoy Summerland. It is feel good family program that still has drama and both adult and teen angst, but not overkill on the sex department. Sexual theme programing is a legit genre, but it is always good to have a little break once in a while. I Don't think it is fair to compare Summerland to past WB hits such as Buffy and Angel because those two shows fall in quite different genres. If anything compare this show to a little 7th Heaven, and little Dawson Creek, and even a little One Tree Hill. These three shows are not very similar, but I believe Summerland takes themes from all three, a feel good family drama, that still has some adult and teen, even younger appeal, where fans of all three, or pick or choose of the three can perhaps enjoy something together.
Rating 7 1/2...8 out of 10

After watching the pilot episode of The OC, I have to say it exceeded exceptions. Not only was I a veteran fan of early years old "Beverly Hills 90210", but also a current fan of the show "Judging Amy", a show that focuses on the Juvenile court system. For the same reason, fans of "The Guardian" may enjoy this show.
The storytelling was great, so much so that I genuinely felt compassion for the main character Ryan. Plus, as a shy, loner type myself, I enjoyed the budding friendship of Ryan and Seth. Ryan and Seth both seem good for each other. I know they could both teach the other by their very different living experiences. Also, next door neighbor Marisa, and events at a party, hint to an exciting foundation of interesting plot devices to come.
