1, 3, Hill

One Tree Hill is a hit TV show from Warner Bros., which is already in the middle of the second season (as aired in Malaysia).

Basically, the story revolves around Lucas and Nathan Scott, who shares the same biological father, but hardly gets along. Karen Roe (Lucas' mother) is pursuing her education after sacrificing all that for her ex-husband, Dan Scott. She and her lecturer is currently an item and she once had a complex relationship with Keith (Dan's brother).

Keith is quite close with Lucas, compared to Nathan. He once slept with Deb (Nathan's mother), and caused Dan a heart attack. Dan is a manipulative father, brother, husband and person. Almost everyone whom ever crossed paths with him, must have been hurt by him, one way or another. It is also the reason why Nathan had acquired a court order to keep both of his parents away from him.

Nathan marries Haley even though they know they are still in high school. But Haley leaves him because she is chasing after her dream and is now performing with Michelle Branch (the singer) on a tour.

Lucas had a complicated history with two gorgeous girls, which nearly broke apart the friendship between the girls; Brooke and Peyton (my favourite). Now, they all remain friends, although Lucas just realised that Brooke is the girl for him. Unfortunately, Brooke already has a new boyfriend. Brooke is also still trying to adapt to the fact that her parents had gone bankrupt.

Peyton is a very lonely girl, who has lost her mother, and father is never around. She's currently having a relationship with Jake, who already has a child from a previous relatioship with an older girl.

Sounds complicated? Not really...I just love the series...a lot! Every week, about 3 to 5 minutes before it ends, it will show how each of these characters intertwine with each other in different scenes, for one final moment (of that particular episode), with some nice catchy song playing in the background. Try to imagine, like the end of a book chapter. It hangs just nice to make you feel excited and impatient at the same time, to know what will happen next.

This series is NOT a chick flick, and far from being a teenager flick, or even a soap! And should you worry that it has some heavy sexual content, well, it's not (it's very mild, actually). And thanks to our censorship, it is practically clean.

Teenagers will love this series, for it basically represents them and their feelings. Parents will love the series, so that they can have some ideas about teenagers these days and what might go on in their heads. Those who are in neither of the categories will love the series, for sheer enjoyment and its well-scripted plots.

The theme song is by Gavin DeGraw. I just love the lyrics that goes like this:
I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I gotta do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me
