About this show

Aside from their love for hoops, Lucas and Nathan seemed to have little in common. But the two young men are bound by the fact that they share the same father. The star of the basketball team, Nathan Scott (series star JAMES LAFFERTY) was raised to inherit his father's throne amidst popularity and wealth, while his half-brother, Lucas (series star CHAD MICHAEL MURRAY), was raised in modest surroundings, the only child of a single mom. When Lucas joined the Ravens team, his transition into Nathan's world created a love triangle with Peyton Sawyer (series star HILARIE BURTON). Although she was Nathan's girlfriend at the time, Peyton felt an instant connection to Lucas. Complicating things even further, Peyton's feisty best friend, Brooke Davis (series star SOPHIA BUSH), quickly set her sights on Lucas as well. And it didn't take Nathan long to notice Lucas' best friend, Haley James (series star BETHANY JOY GALEOTTI), an intriguing girl who helped bad-boy Nathan become a kinder person.

One Tree Hill is one of the best coming-of-age shows to look up to and inspiration to everyone's personal and professional lives. I partly grew up with the series I used to watch One Tree Hill during my teenage days years ago growing with just relating the relationships between dealing drama of my family and friends. I'm an aspiring actor, recording artist, writer, designer, photographer, and chef. I'm Haitian American. I have interest in basketball, football, soccer, and swimming. I'm into comics like mostly DC Comics and Marvel, write stories and songs, do creative design, and taking photos. I love to cook and bake any type of cuisine or dessert. I love to listen Hip-Hop/Rap, R&B, Soul, Gospel, and Jazz music all the time it's so much on my mind.

The show is one LONG music video, every song has to seep with the dialogue and scenes, gets annoying. Show perpetuates the cat fighting, overly jealous, stalking girlfriend/women; it's insulting. Every girl looks like the skinny model pretending to live normal lives. Tells girls that good men only look for "hot girls" to be their wives. Show is capitivating for all the wrong reasons: be jealous, be overly possessive, and lose yourself/identity in your boyfriend/husband. Don't watch.

This is the best show I've ever seen. They actually react like normal people react to situations even if they look weird. The show opens and closes usually with a quote from a famous author or just words to make you think. "Your art matters." -Lucas Scott
