I can't believe with all of the Ced/Jason talk that you left out the reason Jessica was mad at him. Jason was at her house and said he had to go because he had to be home by 10. She later found out that he went over to Ced's house and spent the night there. Now what could those two have been doing all night at Ced's house?

Not done reading...can't stop laughing...recap perfect 10!

Ahahaha i love your comment about Talans hair (same thing with Jasons sideburns) the blatently out of context plot fillers are getting absurd. Another editors trick that is often used in this show is when someones back is turned to the camera (or you are looking at another character but hearing the other one talk in a convo) and the editors insert a soundbite to make the scene more interesting. For instance, when Alex was in the nail salon, she clearly did not say anything like "i am so excited to go with Jason.." -- her back was turned and then we have 3 (again) out of context facial expressions that could have been anything from a reaction to another convo or a wince from a ripped cuticle.

OMG! I can't stop laughing. Did you see the guys Jessica was talking to at the party? They were ready to run away from her ass. If Jason does break up with her, it's only going to stir up more drama...Heavens forbit the attention be taken off her.

I feel bad for Jessica. There I said it. She is an insecure 17 year old child who has a super hot (Yeah that's right I think Jason is super hot and I'm female! - just slightly slightly older than 17!. . .) Plus she hangs out with Kristin super beyotch who can get any guy she wants - none of this is ever going to make her less insecure or less annoying. She knows Jason is going to dump her eventually and the thought makes her act crazy pushing him away in advance. Can any girl truthfully say that being at a high school dance while your boyfriend is there with a date that isnt you wouldnt put you over the edge just a teeny tiny bit? High school was hell for a reason people!!!

Did I mention Jason is totally hot??

B-Side,

Once I had extensions. My hair was down to my butt and the extensions only added 1 inch. But for the 2 weeks I had them, I had more comments then ever before. It had volume. But it was not worth the 2 hours of brushing it every day.

On another note, I left high school less than 10 years ago, but when was it cool to announce to everyone that you are slut and have a friends with benefit....

Am I the only one that thinks Jason shares an uncanny resemblance to Kevin Federline? It's like they are long lost brothers or something...

I laugh so hard every time I read the recaps!!!
Didi anyone elso notice that when Jessica and teenwolf, I mean Jason, were fighting in the Limo that there was a moment that he looked like he was about to shove her (or knock her out!)and then looked right up at the camera, like he had forgotten it was there? And then stopped. It was weird.
She is so annoying but he is horrible.
It makes me glad I am not a teenager anymore!!
And I think Kristen is so funny. Its kind of dry and under the table sometimes ( and she is a bitch) But she is funny!

i think jessica should break up with jason totally he is a jerk!!

Ok, this is my take on Jason. Remember that guy in high school who you thought was so hot and mysterious cause he didn't really talk a lot? And then later you figured out the reason he didn't talk a lot is because he was kinda dumb and socially awkward? That is totally Jason. For real there is nothing going on there.

I believe that Roz and Kristen loved their hair extensions even more the day AFTER formal when Roz was all but eating hers while they were lying in bed...

"It was like a Jew-fro gone Irish."

This was honestly the funniest thing I've read in ages!

On Topic: I'm so glad everyone finally realized how annoying Jessica is!! (Well, at least you did B-Side...) Although, I think she was being so annoying in the Limo because Jason was drunk and she woke him up to make sure he was okay, and then man-handled him to make sure he wouldn't drive home drunk. But, I could be wrong...

i get that u don't like jessica but u don't need to sit there and verbaly asult her and i think she had a right to yell at jason about lieing to her. no one likes being lied to its not that annoying jasons just a douch bag that needs to grow balls if he doesn't want to be with jessica he should have broken up with her as soon as he started to like alex END OF STORY

ha...ahahaha...
It's truly the Roz commentary that gets me every time, and so correct that she's just slightly not cute enough and slightly too smart to make it into the opening credits. And I'm also excited to see that someone else feels that Kristen's voice is as easy on the ears as nails on a chalkboard.

I must say though, I was watching with my friend last night and he totally picked up on the Cedric and Jason thing, and he's never even read these articles. They are totally gay for each other.

Very well written and hilarious commentary! It takes a smart person to think of this stuff.

First of all, I would just like to say that this is the funniest thing I've read in a long time!

Secondly, Jessica may be annoying but ALL she wants from Jason is to be honest with her! If he did than maybe she would stop nagging.

And why isn't anyone talking about Alex - I mean come on! Who DOES that?! She is clearly slutting her "kinky" stuff out there to get dirty boy Jason.

And don't even get me started on him. He may only be what 18 but he's should act more mature than that, don't you think?

FYI, I work at the W hotel pool in LA (cocktailing) and guess who were laying out together on Sunday drinking...Jason and KRISTEN! Random, huh? I knew there ID's were fake but I didn't care, I just couldn't believe they were together now! They never hang out on the show, guess Kristen and Jessica had a falling out...

Yeah, seriously, Talen's hair is a different color and length every scene. Its becoming a joke between our friends. I think this whole last episode REALLY took place before the two before it.

Has anyone else also wondered why Lauren and Stephen are even in the opening credits, they're never in the show anymore! There are a few other characters that should have made the credits before them. LOL.

I have to admit, its not as funny as an episode without some buck-ass scene with Casey "the new girl-teri scivo look alike" though. What was her slut as doing at winter formal...

Good thing they're all seniors because there would be a war on the first day of school after watching this shit next year if they weren't.

That is the most hilarious thing I have ever read!

Darth Carrot Top?

The traffic light comment?

I love it!

I watched my first episode last night. My 18 y/o brother filled me on all the drama up to this point. (Sad, I know.) Anyway, I second whoever said Jason is a jerk. Jessica had every right to be mad. However, I do wish she'd get on with it already and dump his ass.

Totally unrelated: I like Kristen better than that other chick. The "best friend" to Stephen from last year. What's her name? LC? Lo? Anyway, I can't stand people who aren't honest. I think she's caniving about her feelings for Stephen. She should stop being a jealous biach and just admit her REAL motives. But that won't happen cause she wants to come off as the "cool best friend." But she's NOT. She's so jealous of Kristen, so she won't admit that she *wants* Stephen. Deceitful. At least Kristen is out there with what she thinks. I prefer that.

Okay, I give up. Why is "Winter Ball" a punny name, exactly?

JASON LOOKS LIKE JOEY FATONE!!

Oops, I meant to write "Snow Ball"

YO DID ANYONE SEE THAT DARK FOOTAGE OF CASEY DANCING BY HERSELF IN A CORNER? THAT WAS HYSTERICAL MAN! SHE BECOME THE ONLY REASON WHY I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE SHOW THIS SEASON, THAT CRAZY BITCH IS PURE COMEDY.

Yes, Jason is sort of an ass for not going with his girlfriend to their little dance, but at the same time, he is keeping his word to his friend. I really wish I could just reach through the tv and bitch slap these people. I feel like this is mtv realworld junior high with lots and lots of money.

So, Jake lives three houses away, and my wife and I are friendly with his parents. Embarrasingly, we (early 30's/professionals/otherwise mature) totally geek out whenever we see Kristen or any of the other crew over at their house. I remember the night of the party, and the monster limo lumbering up our tiny street. All I can say is that this show only exacerbates my disappointment with getting screwed on the whole generational thing. Why, God, did I have to go to high school in the economically-depressed, sexually-repressed late 80's. Why? I want a do-over.

ps - Darth Carrot Top? Funniest. Name. Ever. We have been struggling for the perfect name for him ever since we moved here. Thanks, our search is over.

I thought this ep was so entertaining... lovin it. Jessica's eyes were creepy at the end while holding her cat; can you say Fatal Attraction?! I loved when Kristin was talking about Casey's extentions and how sh!tty they look. She chose against individual extentions because of that - too funny. P.S. I died js when you made the teenwolf comment - hilarious!

Are you kidding me? Jessica is a psycho girlfriend and honey?
It takes one to know one, mmmm'kay?

Jason should do her the favor of running like the wind and leaving her to deal with her own impulses to stalk his house, break into his voicemail, and lure him into reach with the promise of a bj.

New subject: Enough dogging on my girl Kristin... Jealousy is an ugly emotion.

I feel badly for Jessica, too. I think she needs to get rid of the guy, but she's quite attached to him (or at least the thought of having him as a boyfriend).
She certainly doesn't handle herself correctly in a lot of the situations, but neither does Jason (or anyone else on the show). They both treat each other badly.

SOOO FUNNY. god.

but you need to start making fun of Alex, instead of always picking on jessica and kristen.

and it looks like kristen may start having feelings again for stephen.

Alright everyone lets just lay it all out there does Jessica remind of that girl from the exercist or what I mean any minute her heads going to start spinning around and around. And Jason, how ever cute he is, doesn't know how to treat a girl & well lets just say is the guy version of Kristen :)

I'm just curious - how many people are over the age of 30 that watch this show and read this board.. I'll admit to it - now who else will?

I'll admit it-I'm a shade over thirty and absolutely too old to be watching this mess about high school students! And loving it! Then to make it worse, I watch "My Super Sweet Sixteen" after "Laguna Beach"! I will also admit to going to "MTV Overdrive" and looking at the after the show segments, etc., too. So, so sad. Come to think of it, I am probably too old to be watching 95% of what's on MTV but I can't stop, won't stop.

OK, I too admit that I am well over 30 and RECORD these shows!! I also tried to go to MTV Overdrive to see the after-show segments but my computer is too old to run the site!!!!
This recap is hilarious!! Best laugh I've had in awhile.

B-Side: This was one of your best recaps EVER! I am also over 30 and am so happy to knwo I am not alone in my obsession with this ridiculous show. I agree- Jason looks like Joey Fatone. Not a cute look. He has that stoner super slow way of talking that is so annoying. Speed it up Joey! Focus! Why are they fighting over him? Of all the cast (or whatever reality types are called)Casey and Lo (from last season) are my favorite. I'm not even sure why. God, I am too old for this! All aboard the guilty pleasure train!

i can't even tell you how excited i was to watch this last episode! all of the teeny-bop cat fighting over Jason-LOVE IT! he is such an idot and is the classic "cool" high school guy who will graduate (if he's lucky) and then end up working at a gas station.

jessica-psycho
alex-whoring out
casey-dumb as rocks
roz-clueless
kristin-she's cool

I am over 30 and I am obsessed with the show.
I am in the Laguna Beach Surf Club at mtv.com and I may or may not have listed my birth year as 1986.
I do find it "weird" that I Google high school chicks on the Internet but whatevski.
And by "weird", I mean hysterically funny.

And I like Kristin the best. She's smarter than the other kids and that's why she can get away with being such a bitch sometimes.
Plus, I think she totally misses Stephen. He is so in love with that girl.... it's just frustrating when an awsome guy adores you and doesn't have the maturity to say it. My bff and I call behavior lie that "Sentitive Caveman Syndrom". You know... when dudes make YOU do all the work or make you feel sorry for them because of how bad they feel about what they did or did not do for you?
Yeah.

Props to Kristin and down with the wannabes, like Alex M and Taylor. If they want to be all "I'm a good girl", they should be nicer, like Morgan and Christina from last season.

God, I love this show.

when do we think they will stop referring to Casey as "the new girl" - I mean it is after Christmas Break for god's sake...

Jason look like colin farrell they both have that bad boy thing going for them as well. but jessica is stupid she shouldve dumped him when he said take your own car. i dont think he's cheating oon her unless it was with cedric cuz i mean he wouldnt even kiss alex m. onthe cheek

You know what's funny? They only love Talan now because he dated Lindsay Lohan. And honestly? She did the whole "Mean Girl" thing much better!

I think that Roz is kind of hot. I would rather watch her than sit through another episode of Jessica/Jason...

I heard somewhere that Talan dated Lindsey Lohan...but is that really true? Also- for anyone who lives in or near Laguna...where are all those stores located that the girls always go shopping in? What are the names of some cute/unique boutiques to go to? Any info would be great.

BTW- love the commentary- it is so funny

http://ridiculously.blogspot.com/ This site has Lindsay and Talan pics - Enjoy!

In the July section, btw.

Jason wishes he looked like Colin Farrell.

I'm in the over 30 crowd. I watch Real World too. I got hooked on it in college during one of the first seasons. Like Joslyn, I have watched a few episodes of "my super sweet sixteen." It is a sad social commentary on the brattiness of kids who have gotten everything they have ever wanted from their parents.

To Ashley regarding the shops:

For the most part, the shops are on PCH a few blocks south of Main Beach on the ocean side. I don't recall the names sitting here, but they are hard to miss as they are the only non-surf shop clothing stores on that stretch of road. Once you find parking, all are easily reached on foot.

And, yes, as an over-30 viewer, Real World is still a season pass, and I may have seen Sweet 16 once or twice. Oh, the shame.

What happened with Kristen's date for the formal? I missed this episode.

Loving "Jake the Carrot Snake"

I am 32 and I am addicted to this show! I even taped it when I was away on vacation. I know alot of people well into their 30's that watch this. And yes, I watch Real World too....sigh..I need a life!

I'm 22. :) I just started watching this show last week, per the suggestion of my little brother. (He's 18.) Now I read two recaps on here--this one and Real World (even if I don't actually watch the shows, heheh).

i love this, it was hilarious!

isn't it weird how all of us 'older' viewers somehow all ended up here on this site's commentaries? you would think it would be sprawling w/ teeny boppers up in here...

anyhoot, anytime taylor or alex m talks, it seems like they are trying to talk and act just like Kristin! they are all just jealous of Kristin! she may have a strange, low voice but she is cool enough to pull it off.

jessica deserves jason b/c she's so annoying and DUMB and she lets him walk all over her! and he deserves her b/c he is too DUMB and chicken shit to break up w/ her. I swear, if jessica SAW jason f*ckin alex m w/ her own eyes she would come up with some 'justification' to not break up with him....

do i sense jessica has daddy issues here or what..??!

and why dont we ever see kristin's mom? is that why krisitn acts like such a 'guy'.?

sorry guys, i'm a psych major.

oh, and casey really IS dumb as rocks

'guna-watcher:
I think I remember reading on MTV's site last year Kristin lives with her Dad only in Laguna Beach. She is originally from the Chicago area, so I have a feeling her mom still lives in the Chi, which might be why we don't see her.
Her momma probably didn't know what to do with her hot ass, so she sent her to live with her dad. Hmmm, little did she know...
Now, ask me what I did yesterday and I couldn't tell you.

And I thought being 25 was too old to watch this show. Thank God I'm not alone!!

I love Kristin. She's real. She's 17 & having fun, what else is there? She got a bad wrap from fooling around when she was w/ Stephen, who in all actuality was fucked up for hanging out w/ his 'best friend' LC. Best friend, yeah, right. She's in love w/ you, you're too dumb to see(or you don't want to) & you're girl is cute & doesn't want to be tied down(smart girl). Everyone should stop being so hypocritical (sp?) & let the girl live. You'd do it too.

Yooah lmfao that shyt was funnie az hell but i dnt agree totaly wif dat Jessika shyt..i mean jea i will admit she kan b a nagger sumtymes but shes just soo kute i wanna marry ha lol..shes lyke tha MAIN reason i watch tha show..i feel Soory for her n dat whole Jason drama she deserves way better...*sad face* lol shyt but shes ma boo...haha also tha 70z house that show iz kool haha ~

jendun, I totally agree. *applause*

I'm 35 and hooked on this show. don't anyone feel bad and have been watching the Real World since it 1st came on in 92 along with Road Rules which hasn't been on. I wish also i can go back to high school and not be shy like I was. Also I love blond Alex and Kristin. Jessica is getting to be annoying though.

B-Side, this is possibly the funniest Laguna recap I have read to date. "Jew-Fro gone Irish?!" I LOVE IT! Oh, and to the other "I really should not be watching this show" people, I'm 26 and I Tivo Laguna. I hope Jessica goes apeshit and stalks Jason when he breaks up with her. Boil the bunnies! And I wonder how the Kristen/Jason thing came about? Kristen is such a bitch, but I sort of love her. Is that wrong?!

Great Recap!!! You are histerical!

I hate all of the people on this show. Kristin is a bitch. Jessica is stupid. Jason is a dick. They are all lame but I love the show. What can I say?

Looking forward to the next recap.

I think jason and jessica are cute together even though they fight constantly. I have a feeling that when jason breaks up with jessica he is going to miss her always calling him and he will regret his decision. I have been a jessica before and i know how much it hurts to be lied to. when you are lied to once and all your friends tell you your man is lying to you it is very hard not to believe them. i just hope jason and her can get through there issues but of course that never happens on t.v. I personally think that jason is putting on an act he figures if he acts like he doesn't care then he won't get hurt and lets face it no one wants to be the one who gets hurt in a relationship. it is better to act like you don't care. He loves her because he said it the night before to her and he kept coming to check on her throughout the night when she was sulking outside the dance. i think he is just listening to cedric who is probably in love with jason. jason will hopefully realize his mistake. also jessica is edited to look so needy i bet half the time she was like whatever and only got mad when she found out he lied to her. which he probably didn't think it would be a big deal to lie bout going to cedric's instead of home but us women don't like any lie big or small. just fyi for boys. i say jason and jessica are a match and alex needs to step back.

I love Jason he's SO damn cute!!!

jew fro gone irish.. best part!! or the loser had to be on bottom when they were playing cards

jessica is a nagging, whiney brat who, with her constant bitching, has the same effect on the head as a rusty, old drill..seriously.i get migranes every time i hear "HOW AM I ACTING, JASON?!"
speaking of ja-sss-on, his awkward sexual tension with cedric (or 'ced,' as he affectionately calls him) leaves me squirming in my seat every episode..their longing looks of desire and disappointment, the cockblocking girlfriend,the constant unwanted passes towards jason by the less-cute jessica (alex m.)--btw, did anybody notice that when casey (seriously, this girl has NO brain matter..i would LOVE to get a tape of her miss California pageant tape question section. i imagine it included a lot of extenison twirling, giggling, and "like, you know's"), alex m., ced, and jason went to dinner, jason and ced exchanged yet another eye-sex moment when ced had to leave with casey because OH MY GOD, she like totally forgot her phone in his car and couldn't like possibly figure out how to turn that key thing in the metal thing that opens so you can sit inside of the car?--: it seems as if fate is driving these boys further and further apart..but then, they spend the night together and all is restored in the homoerotic world that no one dares speak of in Laguna Beach (other than the showing of kristen's 1 gay friend that appeared in 1 episode). aah, i love this show..this shit never gets old!

I wish I could even count how awesome lesbians I know who grew up in Laguna Beach or Orange County in general.

I don't begrudge these kids anything that they do or say... they are totally normal kids. They do the same dumb crap that my friends and I did and they'll grow up to be the same various degrees of success that we all are.
I can't wait to tune into a reunion when I am in the nursing home, though.
In my dream world, Kristin ends up running for governor and wins, Stephen becomes a really famous illustrator, Trey is a professor, Jessica gets married young and later goes New Age when her husband divorces her for unecessary clinging.
The New Girl will obviously go on to be on The Real World, Space Station and she'll struggle with the rest of the house as they try to tell her that she's not any better than them just because her house in Laguna has a gnarly security system.
As for LC and Lo, well... remember how I mentioned that I know a whole bunch of lesbians from SoCo, OC in particular?
Do the math.
They'll move to Sedona and open a cute boutique of home furnishings and be "roomates".

This is all you need to know...Jessica is the most annoying person on the face of the f***ing planet. I am so tired of the drama spaz having a fit every time the camera is on her. I am over it. I change the channel when shes on b/c it sounds like nails on a chalk board. Kick her off the show. PLEASE

This was SOOOO funny!!! However, I think a funny moment that I haven't heard anyone else catch was when Jess and Jason were in the limo and she kept bitching, bitching etc... and he's like "You ask so many questions." And the jackass responds with "How do I ask too many questions, Ja-son?" Ummm...yeah. Case in point.

Jessica is so fucking annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The whole jessica/jason thing is soooo annoying. Hello! When your boyfriend accepts a date to a formal thats not with you, break up with him!! What kind of skank asks a guy with an available girlfriend to a formal?? Weird

the reason jason passed out is cause he's a raging alcoholic. true story.

OMG!!! Whoever rights these summaries/reviews is @#$%ING HILARIOUS!!!!!!! The words blur through my tears as I'm laughing so @#$%ING hard reading this!!! The comments about the hair salon and Jessica's date. I also like the review of last season's Cabo episode. Keep up the funny *hit (it's bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s!).

35 and addicted, but hey! Who can blame us 30-somethings? After all, we are the first generation MTV reality show folks and old habits are too hard to break!! OT, watching these little heffers inspires me to work out and hang with my friends. So sad, but true!

Ok, I admit, I am 36 and mom of 2 toddlers and I LOVE this show. Brings back some great memories, not that my high school days were nearly as exciting. Speaking of hs, do these kids ever go to school or do homework?
