Okay, so - there are two episode list articles for this series, [[Episodes of The O.C.]] and [[O.C. Episodes]]. This article has more information, so any extra stuff in the other one needs to be copied across, and then "O.C. Episodes" needs to be deleted. I have no knowledge of this programme so i cant really do it myself. I think this one then needs to be renamed to "List of The O.C. episodes" as its a more conventional name for episode lists (which i cant do because theres already a redirect page there). -- <span style="border:1px solid #ccc;background:#eee; padding:1px">[[User:Jeffthejiff|<span style="color:#333;font-weight:bold">jeffthejiff</span>]]</span> <span style="font-size:80%;color:#999">([[User_talk:Jeffthejiff|<span style="color:#999;">talk</span>]])</span> 15:04, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

'''The Offspring''' is a popular [[United States|American]] rock band from [[Orange County, California]] that originally formed in 1984. The band now consists of [[vocalist]] and [[rhythm guitar|rhythm guitarist]] [[Dexter Holland]], [[lead guitarist]] [[Kevin Wasserman]] (known as noodles), [[bass guitar|bassist]] [[Greg Kriesel]] (known as Greg K), and [[Atom Willard]] on [[drums]]. They have sold over 32 million albums worldwide, and are credited, along with fellow California bands [[Green Day]] and [[Rancid (band)|Rancid]], with reviving mainstream popular interest in [[punk rock]] in the [[United States]] during the mid 1990s.<ref>DeRogatis, Jim. ''Milk It!: Collected Musings on the Alternative Music Explosion of the 90's''. Cambridge: Da Capo, 2003. Pg. 357, ISBN 0-306-81271-1</ref>
I realise people are spending a lot of time on this page; it's good work. I don't want to interupt and mess up your work. However, is there any way someone could put per-series episode numbers in here? It would probably be more useful than the overall episode number in most cases. For example; "s03e17" as well as "68".--[[User:CalPaterson|CalPaterson]] 21:40, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
While The Offspring is often primarily considered a [[Punk Rock]] or [[Alternative Rock]] group, their music contains strong elements of [[grunge]] and occasionally [[ska]] or [[metal]]. The band cites their main musical influences as [[Agent Orange (band)|Agent Orange]], [[Bad Brains]], [[Bad Religion]], [[Black Flag (band)|Black Flag]], [[Circle Jerks]], [[D.I.]], [[Descendents (band)|Descendents]], [[Social Distortion]] and [[TSOL]].
I agree with Cal on the S(season)E(episode #) idea. I also think that we should create a suitable template and start making episode articles.--[[User:Rikkyc|Rikkyc]] 03:21, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
== History ==
=== Early career (1984-1993) ===
The Offspring started in 1984 by founders [[Dexter Holland|Bryan "Dexter" Holland]] and [[Greg Kriesel|Greg K]] who met in their high school cross-country team. The decision came outside of a [[Social Distortion]] concert, when both were refused entry. The Offspring started out as a small [[SoCal]] garage band dubbed Manic Subsidal. [[Kevin 'Noodles' Wasserman]], the school janitor, was welcomed into the band, allegedly because he was old enough to purchase [[alcohol]] for Dexter and Greg, both of whom were under the legal drinking age. <sup>[http://offspring.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Offspring.woa/wa/history]</sup>
I have added the merge tag to [[The O.C. episode plotlines]] and after a few days, if I have no arguments, I will just use the content from this article and redirect that one to this. [[User:Masterpjz9|Masterpjz9]] 00:59, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
In those early times, they had multiple members filling in on other instruments, one of whom was multi-instrumentalist and school mate of future drummer [[Ron Welty]], Marcus Parrish. <sup>[http://www.myspace.com/marcusianparrish]</sup> Marcus left to pursue a solo career before any recording was completed. Their only recorded song under the name [[Manic Subsidal]] was called "Hopeless," and was on a compilation album called ''Party Animal: We Got Power II'', released in 1984 by [[Mystic Records]].<sup>[http://www.fuzzlogic.com/flex/p/3733.php]</sup>

In 1987, newly dubbed The Offspring (allegedly a tribute to band favorite Descendents), they recorded their first release, the [[7-inch single|7"]] [[Blackball (Offspring song)|Blackball]]/[[I'll Be Waiting]], released on the fictitious Black Label. Black Label was an inside joke by the band, as they could not find a production company to release the single. To make themselves more tempting to future labels, they decided to name their record company after the [[Black Label|cheap beer]] they were drinking while they were pressing the records. The line up for this single was Dexter on vocals, Child C-2017 (Noodles) on Guitar, Greg on Bass, and [[James Lilja]] on Drums. Lilja quit shortly after this to pursue a medical career in [[gynaecology]]<sup>[http://offspring.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Offspring.woa/wa/dexter?releaseName=The+Offspring&startingTrackNumber=6]</sup>, and was replaced by [[Ron Welty]], who was only 16 years old at the time.
==Season 3==
In 1989, The Offspring brokered a recording deal with a small-time label, Nemesis Records. With [[Buddhism|buddhist]] punk-guru [[Record producer|producer]] Thom Wilson and a new lineup, the band recorded the album ''[[The Offspring (album)|The Offspring]]''. Their self-titled debut was released in limited amounts by the label, only in a [[Gramophone record|12" Vinyl]] format. The [[Compact disc|CD]] release of the album would not surface until 1995.
Anyone know when/what the last epsiode is ? --[[User:DragonWR12LB|DragonWR12LB]] 04:11, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
:Maybe you should read the article? The final episode is on May 18. Also, Wikipedians don't like people discussing an article's subject on its Talk Page. The Talk Page is only for discussing the article itself. --[[User:Fozi999|Fozi999]] 15:15, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
::I did read the article also what the hell is the point of even having an article if you don't discuss the issue? --[[User:DragonWR12LB|DragonWR12LB]] 02:54, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
==Season 4==
In 1991, again with Wilson, The Offspring produced the ''[[Baghdad (album)|Baghdad]]'' 7". This single was instrumental to the band's signing with [[Epitaph Records]]. Wilson had been trying to get the Offspring to switch to Epitaph, a label run by [[Bad Religion]] guitarist [[Brett Gurewitz]]. Gurewitz felt that ''The Offspring'' was just not quite pronounced enough for his label, but ''Baghdad'' convinced him to give the band a shot. Wilson and The Offspring entered the studio again and recorded ''[[Ignition (album)|Ignition]]''. Released in 1992, ''Ignition'' exceeded all of the label's and band's expectations. The band went on tour for the next two years with other punk bands such as [[Pennywise (band)|Pennywise]], [[Voodoo Glow Skulls]], and [[No Doubt]].
Should season 4 episodes start being included in the list? Seeing as they haven't aired and rumours still surround the plot, possibly making the episode summaries lack factual accuracy -- [[User:Ryan2807|Ryan2807]] 18:02 14 August 2006 (UTC)
:The current text doesnt really spoil anything and is sourced from a reliable source. It also does not reveal much. It has been okay in other Lists.. so it should be o.k here. <font face="Tahoma" size="1"><small>[[User:MatthewFenton|'''<font color="#000000">Matthew Fenton</font>''']] ([[User_talk:MatthewFenton|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/MatthewFenton|Contribs]])</small></font> 18:19, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
::I still don't think season 4 episodes should be added yet. [[User:Iorek85|Iorek85]] made a good point on the talk page of the main [[Talk:The_O.C.#.22Spoilers.22_for_season_4|O.C.]] article by stating that the source of the season 4 spoilers isn't even appropriate for Wikipedia and that verifiable facts and viewpoints should be presented, not unconfirmed rumours, and especially not as fact. Furthermore, stressing the fact that [[WP:Not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_crystal_ball|Wikipedia is not a crystal ball]]. Therefore I think the season 4 episodes should be removed from this article for now, until the season 4 episodes have aired, only then when all the facts be known. -- [[User:Ryan2807|Ryan2807]] 13:30, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
=== Rise to fame (1994-2002) ===

When The Offspring returned to the studio to work on their third album in 1993, the band's relations with producer Thom Wilson had begun to strain. The darker atmosphere in the studio resulted in 1994's landmark album ''[[Smash (album)|Smash]]''. This album set the all-time record for most units sold by an independent label band at 8 million records. Fueled by the hit singles: "[[Come Out and Play (song)|Come Out and Play]]," "[[Self Esteem]]," and, "[[Gotta Get Away]]." Holland credits [[Seattle, Washington|Seattle]]-based [[Grunge rock|grunge]] band [[Nirvana (band)|Nirvana]] for creating the environment which allowed The Offspring to succeed.
::What was the reliable source? FOX is a reliable source, but none of the fansites or spoiler sites are. The titles for the eps are fine, they seemed to be accurate enough last season, but the details are just rumour, unless, as the template says, they came from interviews or preview clips. (Even then, it's kinda murky; This is Wikipedia, afterall, not TV.com... [[User:Iorek85|Iorek85]] 23:37, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
== Individual Episode Pages ==
After the release of ''Smash,'' and armed with a newly expanded income, the band decided to buy out the rights to their first album. Holland and Greg K then created their own record label, [[Nitro Records]], and started signing bands. One of their first releases was a re-release of their first album ''The Offspring''. The label also signed a number of punk bands including [[AFI (band)|AFI]], [[The Vandals]], and [[Guttermouth]]. Soon after Nitro Records became solely Dexter's responsibility.
Everyone of the episode pages needs work. There are no cites, extended plots, and information that is best left out all together. Whoever is monitoring this page and those pages should read this [[Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Television episodes]]. This is the policy created to establish guidelines for episode pages. If you do not have well referenced material try developing Seasonal pages until you do. [[User:Bignole|Bignole]] 12:51, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
After ''Smash'' and the subsequent two years of touring, Wilson, who during the ''Smash'' studio sessions criticized the direction of the band's music as straying away from punk, was fired. Around the same time, the band left [[Epitaph Records|Epitaph]] and signed with [[Columbia Records]], allegedly because they were offended by an insurance policy that [[Brett Gurewitz]] had taken out on the band. Epitaph sued, claiming that the band had not fulfilled its contract. The settlement was an estimated $2 million and the rights to all European single sales. Not only this, but the move caused a fan backlash. Most fans of the Offspring thought that the move to Columbia was purely for financial gain; to this day the band still deny that charge. [[Image:The_offspring.jpg|thumb|right|300x300px|The Offspring in concert]]
== To do.. ==
The Offspring released their fourth album ''[[Ixnay on the Hombre]]'' on [[February 4]], [[1997]], which happened to be Noodles' 34th birthday. This album was not as successful as ''Smash'', although it did sell 4 million units. The album saw the band move away from the political-punk themes common to many Epitaph bands, and more into mainstream rock with songs like: "[[All I Want]]," "[[Gone Away]]," and, "I Choose." The video for "I Choose" was directed by Dexter himself. The band believe that when ''Ixnay...'' came out that the fans were expecting "Smash Part Two" (in their own words) which is why they moved away from their former style.
We need to convert all episode images to wide-screen. We should consider converting to {{tl|Episode list}} and getting all episode summaries down to 2 lines maximum.. keeping longer synopses to the individual pages. <small>[[User:MatthewFenton|Matthew Fenton]] ([[User talk:MatthewFenton|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/MatthewFenton|contribs]])</small> 16:04, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
In 1998, The Offspring released ''[[Americana (album)|Americana]]''. This album was musically lighter than ''Smash'' and ''Ixnay'' but lyrically darker in attitude, while still maintaining a punk-like sound. The album was a success both with the audience and with critics, and easily outsold ''Ixnay on the Hombre''. The four singles: "[[Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)]]," "[[Why Don't You Get a Job]]," "[[The Kids Aren't Alright]]," and, "[[She's Got Issues]];" were all big hits on [[MTV]] and radio. This period is generally regarded as the peak of The Offspring's mainstream popularity.
: What's the best way of converting all the images to wide-screen? I've got ALL the episodes on DVD, so I can do it, but I need to know how big the wide-screen images should be and how I should add them to the article (should I just replace the existing images?) [[User:Jayden54|Jayden54]] 16:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
:If you have them on DVD that's great - the best way is to upload a new version over the present (click the image and scroll to the bottom) - Generally when getting images I resize to 66.77% of the original (thats around the size of most of these/the season 4 ones) - ones that need doing are: [[:Image:OC-101.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-103.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-112a.JPG]], [[:Image:OC-111.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-210.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-215.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-223.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-304.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-305.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-307.jpg]], [[:Image:OC-309.JPG]], [[:Image:OC-310.JPG]] - All the others should be a'okay - When all synopsises are trimmed down and the tables are converted it should start looking pretty good :) - Hoepfully ill be able to do some work converting them soon. <small>[[User:MatthewFenton|Matthew Fenton]] ([[User talk:MatthewFenton|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/MatthewFenton|contribs]])</small> 17:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

==Episode Title Errors==
In 2000, the band released a new and drastically different album called ''[[Conspiracy of One]]''. The band intended to release the entire album online through their official website, to show their support for [[music download|downloading music]] on the internet<ref>Robert Menta, [http://web.archive.org/web/20001019072308/www.mp3newswire.net/stories/2000/offspring.html The Offspring to Release New Album Free Online] (18 September 2000) [[MP3 Newswire]] Accessed on 24 November 2006 from Internet Archive</ref>. However, under threat of legal action by Columbia through their parent company Sony, only the first single "Original Prankster" was released online<ref>Robert Menta, [http://web.archive.org/web/20001211160600/www.mp3newswire.net/stories/2000/offspring2.html Sony Forces The Offspring to Cancel MP3 Giveaway] (26 September 2000) [[MP3 Newswire]] Accessed on 24 November 2006 from Internet Archive</ref>. The band also sold T-shirts on their website with the [[Napster]] logo on it and donated money to Napster creator [[Shawn Fanning]] with the profits.
A lot of the episode titles aren't what they should be. It seems like whoever named them tried to sum up the plot of the episode, and they didn't use the actual episode title given by Fox or whoever names these episodes.
=== Post-Welty period (2003-present) ===
I fixed it.[[User:Seeninator|Seeninator]] 07:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
Nearly three years after the release of ''Conspiracy of One'', long-time drummer [[Ron Welty]] left the band in 2003 to start Steady Ground, a band in which he plays the drums and co-produces. The parties have not elaborated on the departure.
== Title of episode 2.13 ==
In 2003, the band released their seventh album ''[[Splinter (album)|Splinter]]''. The Offspring recruited [[Josh Freese]] to record the drums for ''Splinter'' and later announced that [[Atom Willard]] would be the official replacement for Ron Welty, however his name remained absent from the album credits. The album's original title was to be ''[[Chinese Democracy]]'', the name of the long-delayed album by [[Guns N' Roses]]. As a result, [[Axl Rose]] filed a [[cease and desist]] order against The Offspring, and to avoid delaying the release, the band chose to simply rename the album. The first single "Hit That" enjoyed moderate success on MTV. "Hit that" used a variety of electronic samples to it suprising many fans. However the second single [[(Can't get my) head around you]] showed a return to the bands roots.
[[User:Adelyna|Adelyna]] and I have been in a minor dispute lately about the name of episode 2.13 which I believe is called "The Test", and Adelyna believes it's called "The Father Knows Best". [http://www.fox.com/oc/recaps/213.htm According to the official website] it's called "The Test", so I'm almost certain I'm right, but Adelyna claims that the DVD of the second season lists it as "The Father Knows Best", but I can't verify this since I don't have the DVD myself. For now I've reverted all of Adelyna's actions, and will continue to do so under the assumption that it's called "The Test" (which would make more sense considering the plot of that episode). Cheers, [[User:Jayden54|Jayden54]] 07:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
In 2005, the band released a [[Greatest Hits (The Offspring album)|Greatest Hits]] album with a [[DualDisc]]. The ''Greatest Hits'' album contains 14 of the band's hits from 1994 to 2003, as well as the previously-unreleased song "Can't Repeat". The DualDisc contains video of Dexter and Noodles discussing the band's history and a bonus acoustic version of "Dirty Magic" from ''[[Ignition (album)|Ignition]]''. About a month later, the band released a video DVD with music videos from all of their hits, and some videos from a live show. The album contains number-1 hits such as [[Pretty Fly For A White Guy]] and [[Come Out And Play]].
:I just did a quick Google check, and it appears that the episode is called "The Father Knows Best" on the DVD (see [http://www.amazon.com/O-C-Complete-Second-Season/dp/B0009K7QZ8]), but I think we should stick we the original title, which is also listed on the official website. [[User:Jayden54|Jayden54]] 07:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
During the summer of 2005, the band played the [[Vans Warped Tour]] for the first time, and followed that with a tour of Europe and Japan. After the "Greatest Hits" world tour the band took a break from writing, recording and touring. Atom Willard was recruited by [[Tom DeLonge]] for his band [[Angels and Airwaves]] and released an album, ''[[We Don't Need to Whisper]]'', in 2006.
::Press release has it down as "[http://www.thefutoncritic.com/listings.aspx?id=20050127fox14 The Test]". [[User:Matthew|Matthew]] 07:34, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
==Single episodes==
{{Main article|The Offspring's eighth studio album}}
I plan on redirecting these per [[WP:EPISODE]] soon. Information from multiple secondary sources must be present for a single episode to need an article. This includes reception and development. Single plot summaries and trivia don't make a substantial article. I suggest [http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Wikia Wikia] and [http://www.tv.com/ tv.com] as alternate venues for this information. [[User:TTN|TTN]] 21:27, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
According to their official website, the band has entered the studio with producer Bob Rock and "a fistful of demos". Although an official title and release date have yet to be confirmed, the recording process has begun and the band hopes to have the effort in stores by spring 2007. There are also rumors of the band releasing a rare/b-sides album.

=== Trivia ===
{{unreferencedsect|date=October 2006}}
* The cover, shown on the left, for ''[[The Offspring (album)|The Offspring]]'' is the original version. The re-release of the album had a different cover, which is shown on the right, due to the increasing popularity of The Offspring as well as the number of expensive, poor quality bootlegs that were being sold to fans. Another reason why it had a different cover would be that the original version is too violent, because it shows a picture of a scary-looking skeleton, with a [[Fender Stratocaster|Stratocaster]], popping out of a man's stomach.
* Almost all albums have special intros, outros or hidden tracks:
:* The first track for ''[[Ignition (album)|Ignition]]'', Session, starts with Ron screaming, "Aah! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! FUCK!"
:* ''[[Smash (album)|Smash]]'' starts with the spoken intro ''Time to Relax''. The last track is followed by the short spoken outro, the demo for ''Change The World'' and ends with the secret track ''Come Out And Play (Reprise)''.
:* ''[[Ixnay on the Hombre]]'' starts with ''Disclaimer'' by [[Jello Biafra]] and ends with ''Kiss my ass'' offer by [[Calvert DeForest]]. In the middle of the album there is a comic ''Intermission''.
:* ''[[Americana (album)|Americana]]'' starts with unnatural-sounding spoken ''Welcome'' and ends with the 'secret' track ''Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) - (Reprise)''.
:* ''[[Conspiracy of One]]'' starts with short spoken ''Intro'' by [[Mike Love]] of [[The Beach Boys]] (Taken from a Beach Boys live concert). Some versions of the album contain ''Huck It'' as track 14, some have ''Staring at the Sun (Live)'' as track 14 and ''All I Want (Live)'' as track 15, but most only contain tracks 1-13.
*The single "[[Tokyo I'm on My Way!]]" by [[Puffy AmiYumi]] was written by Dexter Holland.
*The album "Smash" is the highest selling record of all time on an independent record label.
*The voices for ''Intermission'', ''Time to Relax'' and the Smash outro were provided by [[Chris "X-13" Higgins]].
