to start of, one tree hill is a teen drama television series from the early 2000s. it consists of 9 seasons and 187 eps in total. Its core 5 characters are lucas and nathan scott, peyton sawyer, brooke davis & haley james.
the story: basically it all begins with basketball. the two half-brothers nathan and lucas share the same dad although only nathan lives with him. Lucas was abandoned by dan (their dad) and he lives with his mom and his uncle keith. They can’t stand eachother but one day lucas-
-joins the school basketball team and nathan asks his beat friend haley to tutor him to get lucas to leave the team but then he starts to fall in love with haley and she gets them to be more nicer towards eachother til they become friends. Then there is Peyton, Nathans gf. +
+ Basically they break up in the first few eps. Lucas always loved peyton since years but she didn’t really care much about him til after the breakup. Brooke is Peytons bff and she starts to like lucas too and starts a relationship with him. That’s it i don’t want to tell yall-
-more watch the show!! Anyways let’s start with the reasons!
1. Firstly, it’s a show with a big and i mean BIG focus on music since s1. Its soundtrack is the best soundtrack i’ve ever heard in a show before. Bc of the show i discovered hundreds of new songs and artists that i listen to regularly now. + alot of bands and artists
-performed on the show and two of the main characters did music aswell (haley and alex). Especially s2 is REALLY focused on music bc of the new character chris keller. The music is PHENOMENAL.
2. The quotes. In the early seasons lucas always had a quote in the beginning or end of the ep and it always got me to think about life or it inspired me or it gave me hope. The characters go through situations that every person goes through & with each ep u learn something.
3. The characters. I can honestly say i care about each character in this show. Even the parents wich shows the show was done really well. Especially brooke and nathan go through such an amazing character development throughout the 9 seasons you just start to care for them and-
-you are so proud of how better people they become. It’s like their your best friends for some reason. The characters grow with you and you learn from them like they’re your teacher and they guide you through your life.
they’re *
4. The plot. Honestly the villain in this story is probably the best villain i’ve seen. You just love to hate him. Dan is such a complex character and honestly i like his character bc of that. He is such a manipulative and abusive figure but really smart and sometimes he even-
-shows empathy? But then you’re reminded of how horrible he actually is and it just shows how great of an actor paul is. Anyways, the story is really consistent especially within the first 6 seasons bc of the original lineup but i loved how the original story -
- just ends in the last season and they didn’t make more seasons for the thrill of it. It was planned out and they focused alot more on the growth of each character wich is another thing: most people watch a show to get through the plot and don’t know or care about-
-the characters. Not oth. This show is all about growing up w the characters and hoping their best. They become your teacher and best friend along the way. This show brings you to tears it moves you bc of the characters. The actors were chosen perfectly.
for*
5. The nostalgia. Even if you didn’t watch the show in 2003 it just has that typical 2000 feeling to it with the music and the fashion especially the first season is gold.
6. Unlike most teen dramas wich end at 4 or 6 seasons this show decided to do a time jump to give us adult versions of the characters wich was the best decision. You see them accomplishing their dreams and having trouble while doing so. They get married, have kids etc.
Like, take naley. We saw them grow up into this married couple with a kid and you see how they raise him like ,, s1 nathan would never but he goes throughout this development and https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face"> my heart.
Throughout each season you see them maturing or gaining new dreams and accomplishing them. When nathan finally made it to NBA i cried. When brooke got pregnant we all cried i’m sure. This show has fans and not just spectators who care for the show. We’re a family.
Wich takes me to the next point and not to throw shade but wich show’s cast is as close and keeps in contact after 8 years of the show having ended?? I heard so much about other teen dramas cast and how toxic the environment was and don’t take me wrong..
mark is an asshole but the cast in itself is all very loving and supportive towards eachother. Other teen show casts WISH. period.
Another point is the show didn’t just focus on love, friendship and family problems. It had a lgbt character in the show and it dealt with homophobia. It dealt with toxic masculinity, grief, abandonment issues, self harm and suicide and depression, drug addiction, manipulation,
-abuse, teen pregnancy, stalkers, slut shaming, bullying, r*pe, it had a literal school shooting ep wich many consider its best ep and also the best ep who focused on that topic even by people who didn’t watch the show before. It dealt with the fact not being able to have kids +
+ or probably dying if you decide to still give birth (peyton & brooke) it dealt with child kidnapping and environmental issues like i know i’m listing alot of things but the show touched on such tabu topics in the early 00’s wich was honestly groundbreaking. A cultural reset.
The show is inspiring. Whenever i watch an ep i feel this warm feeling in my heart it’s my home and it makes me believe i can accomplish anything i want. This show is unlike anything else. There are so many reasons u should watch it but the most important is probably +
+ the fact they’re normal people living in a small town just like us. You can see and find yourself in atleast one character. Most shows nowadays need some kind of shock factor to them and fictional shit bc we don’t wanna deal with real things that happen in real life.
But we need to. This show is magic. It deals with real things yet takes you to a place you feel safe. To learn & grow and become the person u wanna be. Best word to describe it is magic. This place is magic. Come and just find it out. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz">
