BEST SHOW EVER? I THINK SO !

One Tree Hill is a teen drama on the CW 11, and in my opinion is the greatest show ever! The show is about two half brothers Lucas (played by Chad Michael Murray, who I actually got to meet recently) and Nathan (played by James Lafferty) who are connected by their horrible father. In the beginning of the series the two brothers hated each other but as the years have progressed they have grown to become best friends. They live in Tree Hill, North Carolina where they are high school basketball players. Also in the mix are Haley (Lucas' best friend and Nathan's wife), Brooke (Lucas' ex-girlfriend), and Peyton (Lucas and Nathan's ex-girlfriend).

They are all best friends and go through situations like normal teenagers encounter in real life and some out of the ordinary, whether it be fights, love triangles, breakups, sports, music, pregnancy scares, and marriages (yes, they're still in highschool and married). But an interesting occurance this season is that instead of showing them go through college, the show skipped ahead four years with them now 21 years old and all adults. This show is so great because it really centers on certain things with two of them being writing and music. Each episode is named after a title of a song and each episode contains lots of music that is kind of "under the radar." There are always different new bands on the show which keeps music a main focus. One of my favorite things about the show is that it begins and ends with a voiceover. One of the characters, usually Lucas (a writer), opens and ends the show with quote or thought. Most of them get you thinking, and they are actually quite inspiring. I love this show because it has so many different aspects to it and i think ultimately is very entertaining and sends a good message.


Here are two voiceovers that were on that show:

"Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's alot like your world, or maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their place. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, unsatisfied, barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes-someone to help us hear the music in their world, to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you."

"Did you ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder, how many strangers have pictures of you? How many moments of other peoples' lives have we been in? Were we a part of someone's life when their dream came true? Or were we there when their dreams died? Did we keep trying to get in, as if we were somehow destined to be there? Or did the shock take us by surprise? Just think you could be a big part of someone else's life…and not even know it."
