Adam Brody: The O.C. wouldn't work today because "it’s a celebration of affluence"

“I kind of don’t think it can be done because socially we’re in a different place and we’re in a more conscious place,” Brody said on the Welcome to the OC, Bitches! podcast, hosted by his former co-stars Rachel Bilson and Melinda Clarke. “While The O.C. claims to be — in a similar sense as a Gossip Girl — while it would sort of say it’s a critique, it’s not. It’s a celebration — it’s a celebration of affluence in my opinion.”
