The O.C. Fun Fact: Oliver Trask originally written out by suicide?
Originally the writers of season 1 episode 18 "The Truth" had Oliver successfully commit suicide. But the producers chose a less tragic end where Ryan managed to save the situation, a much lighter and heroic ending. No details on how Oliver was originally suppose to do it but it could have either been by his gun or his pills. Makes you wonder how much different season 1 would have been if it involved something as tragic as that 3 quarters into the series. Either way Ryan would have still been super distant to Marissa for ignoring him multiple times regarding Oliver's sanity. If you have a copy of an early script make sure to shoot it over to us!
