Kevin Sorbo, Chris Brown Coming To "The O.C."

The gang on FOX's "The O.C." is celebrating New Year's in this week's episode including a special appearance of Kevin Sorbo. Pop-star Chris Brown then arrives in Orange County on January 4.

"The Earth Girls Are Easy" is the final episode of the drama for 2006 (the show is pre-empted next week, on December 28, with Reece Witherspoon's 2002 romantic comedy "Sweet Home Alabama", also starring Josh Lucas and Patrick Dempsey).

In this week's episode, Ryan has planned a special surprise road trip for himself and Taylor, but when Summer confronts Seth about not making any plans, Ryan's romantic getaway for two is spoiled.

Meanwhile, Summer's future rests in the hands of a raver. When she does a pregnancy test, Taylor is there for her.

And Bullit asks an old friend to take a look at Julies accounting. Enter Frank(Kevin Sorbo), a man with a deep dark secret.



Two weeks later, in the January 4 episode "My Two Dads", Kaitlin fails a class presentation after pushing her teacher's buttons and is forced to work with Will (special guest-star Chris Brown), a smart band geek at Harbor.



When Kaitlin thinks she can get Will to do her homework for her, he challenges her and sparks fly.

Bound by their new commitment, Seth and Summer move forward with their plans, regardless of how they really feel.




Meanwhile, Sandy confronts Frank on why he's in Newport and Julie tells Kirsten of Franks true identity. When Frank comes to dinner at the Cohen house, Sandy channels some kid-chino as his paternal instincts kick in.

That would explain Frank's nose bleed.
