...I decided to give another chance to One Tree Hill because one of my friends said it gets better in Season 4 and remarkably good in Seasons 5 and 6 and Rebbecca also said similar things. So I watched whatever episodes I could find on Megavideo and read the recaps of those I couldn't.
And here's my final verdict:
One Tree Hill sucks.
And I shall demonstrate.
Exhibit 1:
As seen above, Brooke is the biggest slut of Tree Hill, despite that Rachel claims (and everybody else agrees with her, including Brooke) to have that title. Maybe because Brooke's pretty ugly and Rachel's hot. Nathan wins the award for Best Manwhore.
Exhibit 2:
What's with brothers boinking the same women, I ask you. Nathan and Lucas shared Payton and Brooke and Dan and Keith shared Karen and Deb. In fact, after knocking up Karen and leaving her and then marrying Deb and impregnating her too and then divorcing her and after killing his brother Keith, Dan decides he'll give Karen another go. Weird.
Exhibit 3:
What Exhibit 1 doesn't display is the frequency lovers exchange partners. Brooke-Lucas-Peyton love triangle: Lucas loves Peyton. Then he loves Brooke. Then he decides he loves Peyton more and starts cheating on Brooke with Peyton. He then decides he loves Brooke more and dumps Payton. Then he thinks Rachel is kinda cute and she throws herself at him, but once again he goes back to Brooke, but not before Brooke fucks this musician dude and Lucas walks in on them but it's Okay. Then while with Brooke, he and Payton kiss but that's OK because Payton was bleeding to death. Then Peyton decides she still loves Lucas and tells Brooke about it (not to Lucas though) and Brooke dumps Lucas. But Lucas is in love with Brooke so he tries to win her back and Peyton helps him. Then he realizes he doesn't love Brooke anymore and a few minutes later Peyton tells him how he feels. And the very next day Lucas decides he's in love with Peyton and on some level he's known it all along. Then Peyton leaves for LA and Lucas asks her to marry him but she refuses so she must not love him. So Lucas comes to NY and almost hooks up with Brooke but doesn't. Instead she hooks up with this other girl, whose name I can't remember but I know she's an editor of some sort. We'll call her Editor Girl. Anyhoo, they all come back to Tree Hill; Brooke and Peyton and Lucas and Editor Girl and it's all very confusing. Lucas kisses Peyton who obviously is still in love with him and the same night he proposes to Editor Girl. Then bunch of shit happens and Editor Girl decides Lucas is in love with Peyton and LEAVES HIM AT THE FUCKIN ALTAR! Then Brooke and Lucas bond over Brooke's adopted baby and for a moment there we think Lucas is about to go back to Brooke but then HE ASKS PEYTON TO MARRY HIM! Now they are engaged and Peyton's preggers and possibly has cancer.
And did I mention that Peyton's old lover is in town and he's producing Lucas's movie?
I'm not even going to talk about Mouth-Rachel-Gigi-Millie drama because it would give you a nosebleed.
Oh and by the way, I Wikied One Tree Hill and apparently the actors aren't that different than their characters. Apparently they've been marrying and divorcing each other in RL as well. That is what we in the television business call "staying in character".
And this be my last One Tree Hill post. I promise.
