“The O.C.,” the once-hot teenage soap opera that saw its ratings plummet, has been canceled.
The final episode will run Thursday, Feb. 22, Fox TV and Warner Brothers Television Production said on Wednesday.
Based in the affluent Orange County, Calif., city of Newport Beach, “The O.C.” caught fire in its first season, 2003-04, as the top drama among advertiser-favored young
adults, with nearly 10 million viewers.
The show dropped to about 7 million weekly viewers in 2004-05 and to fewer than 6 million last season. This year, it has drawn about 4 million.

Well...... who didn't see that coming?
I haven't even seen any of Season 4, so I can't vouch on the 'quality gone downhill' remarks. But simply, it wasn't a great show. And its presence in pop culture curled up and died long before that old man, Caleb, did. Let's all shrug in unison with this long time coming, already apparent announcement.
