The O.C. is joining Hulu’s huge collection in the beginning of next month along with Southland (which also stars Ben McKenzie), Smallville, and a number of other Warner Bros. titles, thanks to this new deal with Warner Bros.

Created by Josh Schwartz, The O.C. first aired in 2003, lasting four seasons until 2007. The ensemble drama revolved around a troubled youth who finds himself in the middle of the high-class society of Newport Beach, in Orange County, California, where he becomes close with a group of wealthy people. The series starred Gotham‘s own Ben McKenzie, along with Peter Gallagher, Kelly Rowan, Adam Brody, Rachel Bilson, Melinda Clarke, and Mischa Barton.
