I know, major throwback, but The OC will forever be one of the greatest shows of all time. Likewise, Sandy Cohen is hands down one of the best TV characters of all time. If you've been an OC fan from the beginning, or you just started watching the show recently (it's available online for the first time ever!), you understand. If you haven't seen the show, go watch it now. You can't help but fall in love with Sandy. Here are ten reasons why Sandy Cohen is husband goals:
*WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!*
1. For a man in his fifties...he's still got it.
The flowing hair, the strong eyebrow game, the killer smile...*swoons*
2. He can cook.
Someone had to step in for Kirsten's inabilites, and Sandy was right there with his infamous grilling skills, dedication to bagels and his perfection of the "shmeer."
3. He's loyal.
Despite bumps in the road, (*cough* Rebecca Bloom) he always remained loyal to Kirsten further proving his moral compass is always pointing due north.
4. He is supportive.
Throughout her alcoholism and father's death, Sandy held Kirsten's hand the whole time. He encouraged Ryan every time he doubted himself. He was there for Seth even after he had lied to Sandy for the thousandth time.
5. He has a down-to-earth personality despite living amidst the "Newbsies."
Even when he was the head of the Newport Group, he still did the right thing. He also went surfing every morning which I'd say makes him pretty cool.
6. He gives motivational speeches that can sway even Julie Cooper to do the right thing.
If I had a dollar for every time Sandy Cohen bailed someone out of a bad situation (or jail) with one of his speeches, I would be a millionaire.
7. You can count on him for sarcastic comedic relief for every situation.
Seth had to get his sense of humor from somebody.
8. Did I mention he can sing?
Yes, that was actually him singing in the episode.
9. He also loves to embarrass his children.
Although repeatedly telling Seth that "Summer's hot" may have been pushing it a tad.
10. ...which just shows he is the greatest T.V. dad to ever exist.
Seth and Ryan were lucky kids.
We love you too, Sandy.
