SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

mariadowling-14254 WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERSI was encouraged to watch One Tree Hill by a friend who said it was one of her favourite series ever. However, Prison Break has always been my favourite and I felt nothing would ever live up to that, also knowing One Tree Hill would be dramatically different to the story line of PB, I didn't think I would be overly crazy about OTH. I started season 1 and wasn't obsessed, but liked it enough to continue. It's quite centred around basketball to begin with but it does eventually move away from that, whilst keeping it a somewhat prominent feature throughout the whole show. The first 4 seasons are very high school based. It follows a group of high school students who are nearing graduation: Lucas, Nathan, Peyton, Brooke, Haley, and then others including Mouth, Skills and Rachel. However, on the side, there is a whole other plot line of family history and drama which I won't go too much into.OTH is an incredible series which I've seen many reviews label it as a 'teen series'. But I have to disagree. Despite the first 4 seasons being set in high school, it deals with more mature topics such as: teen pregnancy, suicide, murder, single parenthood, school shootings, gun violence, family loss, family breakdowns and divorce. Season 5 makes a jump in time, so that the actors are actually acting their age (mid 20s) rather than being teenagers. This new concept created more mature themes including: adult marriage, struggles to conceive, violence and attacks, kidnapping, problematic health issues, loss of loved ones, adoption etc. To put it simply, I cannot recommend this show enough. I finished it in 9 weeks/2 months and I already can't wait to watch it again (I think I should hold off for a few months though lol).I personally was not disappointed with who the characters ended up with, despite having those feelings during the show, my mind was soon changed when someone better came along. And the lovely thing about the show is, when it's over, and you feel sad and don't know what to do with yourself, if you're like me and choose to watch every interview on Youtube and stalk all the characters Instagram accounts, you'll be very happy to see most characters are still friends and meet up regularly. P.S. I can confirm that Prison Break and One Tree Hill both hold 1st place for my favourite TV series ever.

sskoshti Season 1 starts pretty great with added sport Basketball. those who like romantic drama this is most enjoyable TV show and music in the show is great .Most of all Nathan and Haley are amazing.Nathan and Haley chemistry is great .

Anna Salvatore This series really gets to you emotionally i must admit. It is based on the lives of half brothers Nathan and Lucas Scott. When they first become apart of each others lives jealousy, rivalry, desperation and hatred is shown. Nathan has always been the spoilt dis-obedient child who got everything he wanted, he was immature and it wasn't until Hayley James - Lucas' best friend that he became more compassionate about the way he treated everyone. Lucas was the mature brother who felt abandoned by his father, he was very fortunate for everything he had even if it wasn't perfect. As the seasons go on the characters develop a great chemistry and relationship. It presents them with their future roles as husbands/wives, mothers/fathers and their working lives

Nancy Drew I wanted to review this series before I was even close to finishing it. I watched every single episode in my bed yet I felt like I was one of the characters in Tree Hill. The plot, script, actors and settings were so perfectly put together. I could never imagine Chad Michael Murray acting the role that he did and I can't say I'm disappointed in the slightest as he did it so well. As always, he made every viewer squeal and fall in love but how could anyone say that they weren't charmed by the other Scott brother at any stage? Payton's character was very thought out and creative. Brooke was just like every other average teenage girl but wanting to be part of their group was something I thought about frequently. They always had a great time together. They had their ups and downs and I admired how much it resembled a real life friendship. A heap of the time I felt just like Payton and other times I felt like I had a bit of Brooke in my personality too. They were both lovely, caring girls. They'd fight, argue and bicker but if something went wrong the other was always there to help. It was disappointing to see Luke and Payton leave Tree Hill in one of the last seasons. They were a huge part of this series too me and it was saddening to watch the other characters live normally with out them. One Tree Hill has made a huge impact in my life, it moved me. It made me, happy, upset, frustrated, annoyed, angry, loving, caring. It made me feel a lot.
