So, One Tree Hill (OTH) is an awesome show. Of all the shows I like to watch (other than like Hannah Montana, Zoey 101, and other stuff like that), it's one of the only shows I've watched from the beginning. (Everwood and Summerland being the only others).

I was still in elementary school watching Disney and Nickolodeon shows when 7th Heaven started. I didn't watch my first full season of 7th Heaven until probably season 5. By then it was half way over. I watched a few episodes of the other seasons if I happened to come across it and watched a lot it reruns, but I didn't watch my first full season until season 5 and after that I never missed an episode.

Gilmore Girls is the same way. I was in middle school when it started, but I wasn't interested in it. The first episode I saw was from season three and than saw a few reruns on Sunday nights. My first full season was season 4 and I watched every episode after that.

Summerland and Everwood were both amazing shows. I watched them from the beginning and never missed an episode. I was sad when Everwood ended, but thinking about it now, it was the right time...there really wasn't anything else they could have done with it. It ended with the characters all happy and with the right people. Summerland, though, I wish it would have lasted more than 2 seasons. This show was the first time I saw Zac Efron in anything and it was because of his role in this show that I gave High School Musical a chance even though the previews for it seemed stupid to me. I ended up loving HSM.

But OTH.... what can I say... I LOVE THIS SHOW!! I have watched every episode from the beginning and recently purchased (and have excessively watched) seasons 1-4. Since this show hasn't been in reruns (other than SoapNet which I don't have) like 7th Heaven and Gilmore Girls the episodes from so long ago I hadn't seen since they were first on. I have liked OTH from the beginning, but because I was watching other shows on the WB, too OTH was never my most watched, favorited show, but now that it is the only one left I my originally WB (CW) line up I have a new perspective of it. I love this show more now since I've watched the DVDs and relived the lives of these characters.

I remember watching the show when it first premiered and immediately thinking that Lucas should be with Peyton, but when he ended with Brooke I was cool with it when I found Chad and Sophia were together because I thought it would be cute to be a TV couple and a real-life couple. Then when they split my thoughts shifted back to Peyton because I had originally thought they belonged together and I thought it would be better for Chad and Sophia not have to be romantic with each other. I loved the Leyton moment in the library the day of the school shooting when Peyton told him she loved him and kissed him. It sucked that he was with Brooke at the time, but it gave me hope for a Leyton ressurection. I was ecstatic when season 4 came around and they kissed after the Ravens won the championship and finished the season together.

When I first saw the previews for season 5 and saw the proposal I was so happy for them, but it sucked when she said no. I've spent all of the season 5 yelling at the TV for Lucas to open his damn eyes and realize that Peyton is the one for him (she alwasy has been and always will be). A part of me does think that Peyton had her chance and she said no, but than I remember watching the season 4 episode after the Ravens won the championship when Keith shows Lucas this old woman standing at Lucas' grave (should he die from his heart attack) and it's Peyton. She always loved him and never let go. I want Lucas to remember that and go back to her.

I am so hoping that his phone call in the finale was to Peyton. I have never liked Lindsay and I think of all the girls in Lucas' life (meaning Brooke and Peyton) Lindsay hurt him the most and therefore doesn't deserve him. Peyton did hurt him really bad when she turned down his proposal, but Lindsay knew his heart was conflicted, agreed to marry him, and then said no when it was time for the "I do's." I think her walking away hurt him more because Peyton said no, but I think Lindsay should have been a better person and walked away the moment she realized Lucas' heart was conflicted.

Okay, so I could say a lot more about this show, but I will stop here for now and write more later.
