Samaire Armstrong Looks Back on "The O.C."

[JamesG]

We've heard that not every actor with a recurring role on "The O.C." felt particularly welcomed by the show's core cast.

What was your experience like?


That wasn't my experience only because I actually knew Rachel [Bilson] before I started working. I knew Adam [Brody] before I started working — we had attended a really cool acting class together for a while.

I think it's a daunting situation to come onto any set that has a rhythm going, and you're basically trying to find your seat at the lunch table. I will say, we were all very young, and there's that, too. Social skills are kind of lacking at that age, I think.
