because it was a terrible show,
you may have liked it but it was just another teen drama like dawsons creek or 7th heaven
only it was based on california preps which makes it that much worse

It's simple. Money.
Advertisers pay to run their ads on TV. That's how the TV networks make their money. The higher the ratings on a show, the more the advertisers will pay (because they will reach more viewers). So when ratings go down, even just a little, it means less money for the network.
The ratings on The O.C. went down, so the network cancelled the show - in hopes of being able to make more money with some other show in the same spot. It's that simple.
(As for why the ratings went down - killing Marissa was probably the final straw that sunk the show.)

I loved it too! They canceled The OC because Mischa Barton quit. SHe didn't want to do the show anymore. The rating of the show went really low so they had to cancel it. I am so bummed! :(

Probably because just like all of them they ran out of ideas.
