10 YEARS ago today, we were introduced to The O.C., the show that brought us Marissa Cooper, Ryan Atwood and a whole lotta teen angst.

The Josh Schwartz-created series lasted just four seasons, from 2003 to 2007. But for many, it was the backdrop of our own teenage years.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of one of our favourite TV shows, here are our top O.C. moments in pics.

Our favourite four teens tackling the big issues over a milkshake down at the diner.

The lovely (but fiery) ladies of Orange County - Marissa (Mischa Barton), Summer (Rachel Bilson), Julie (Melinda Clark), and Kirsten (Kelly Rowan).
