    Michael has done a terrific job in the roles he has taking on. Some include The O.C. and Hidden Palms a new show. He really adds a lot to the show that he acts in. I think HIdden Palms will be a big hit. hide show

    Michael Cassidy VI is amazing! I've watched him play Zach in The O.C. and he made the show interesting as Summers new lover. It was to bad they took him off. Now he has a new role as Cliff in Hidden Palms. Michael betraying the part as Cliff has to obtain seeming evil and being nice at the same time. It seems to be as a difficult thing to do but he's nailed it so far. IF he keeps this up I think Hidden Palms will be the next big show to watch like Lost. I see him going far himself after more people watch the show. I see him as the next Chad Michael Murray but in a unique way.

    Michael Cassidy is an up and coming American actor. Hopefully he will distinguish himself from the role of Zach in the O.C. hide show

    A great disservice will happen if people only recall Michael Cassidy from his supporting role in 2005's "The O.C." His acting chops have definitely been proven with his role as Johnny, a rich teen who needs a ride home from drama rehearsal in the 2005 short film called "Dare". Thank goodness the film, directed by Adam Salky and written by David Brind is found in a collection of shorts released in 2006 called "Boy's Life 5". Salky has said he would like to make the short a full length feature.

    Michael is currently attached to play in the new Kevin Williamson (Scream) Drama Series "Hidden Palms" along with another O.C. alumnus, Taylor Handley.(Oliver Trask)

    Michael also stars in the upcoming film "Zoom".

    Michael is great! We MUST see more of him! I hope he appears in "The O.C." some more... He was such a great addition. hide show

    Wow! I loved Michael Cassidy as Zach in "The O.C." He's handsome, and a lovely actor. I was shocked to discover that it was his first on-screen role! He's full of talent, and I hope to see him on television or the movies again soon. I'm really upset he's not on "The O.C." anymore... Wish they'd bring him back!

    Michael Cassidy brings Zach on the O.C. to life. He makes you believe in this guy whos gorgeous yet has a great heart and isnt a womanizer. His character should be a regular on the show because he still has much more to give and is being underrated. hide show

    Truth be told, I wasnt interested in the new season of the O.C. until one talented actor caught my attention, Michael Cassidy who plays Zack Stephens, one third of the now infamous love triangle between a beauty queen and two dorky yet lovable guys who fight for her love yet still manage to put their feelings for her aside and have a very interesting comic book based partnership. Michael Cassidy is amazing he manages to pull off the difficult task of creating a character thats dorky but at the same time very charming who could very well be a womanizer with his looks but is too sweet and sensible to approve of that. I feel that this actor is very underrated because he should have more dialogue in the story and not base his presence in the story solely on his infatuation towards the character of Summer. Also, he is very talented and i think that he should become a regular on the show because of how well the actor brings this character to life.
