Leyton forever and always! ‘One Tree Hill’ stars Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton reunited for a fan convention on Aug. 8, reinstating our love for fan-favorite couple Peyton and Lucas! See the epic pic here.
Can we go back to Tree Hill now, please? Chad Michael Murray, 33, and Hilarie Burton, 33, reunited for EyeCon3000 in Wilmington, North Carolina on Aug. 8, and it was everything we wanted and more! It’s been thee years since One Tree Hill has been off the air — and even longer since Chad and Hilarie were on the show — so this reunion pic made us feel incredibly nostalgic!
Paul Johansson is well-known as an on-screen villian — the extremely hated father, Dan Scott, in ‘One Tree Hill,’ and ‘Mad Men’ creep, Ferg Donnelly. However, he is now facing the wrath in real life, being accused of making sexist comments to a female journalist during an interview at BuzzFeed.
Susan Cheng, an editorial assistant at BuzzFeed, shared a full story about an experience she had while interviewing Paul Johansson, the 51-year-old actor who is known for being a great villain. She titled the story, What Hollywood’s Acceptance Of Sexism Looks Like In Practice, in which she claimed that he made many remarks that made her extremely uncomfortable. The actor’s lawyer also released a rebuttal statement.
Warning: Don’t read this post until you’ve watched the ‘One Tree Hill’ series finale. It contains so many beautiful spoilers.
Mark Schwahn told me he wanted to make the series finale feel like “a quintessential One Tree Hill episode,” and that’s exactly what he delivered April 4: introspective voiceovers, unforgettable performances, and a look into the future that wrapped up nine years of story into an hour-long love letter to the fans of “the little show that could.”
The March 28 episode brought smiles, waterworks & a major step for one fan-favorite couple!
As One Tree Hill’s series finale inches closer and closer — it’s literally seven days away now — the residents of Tree Hill burned their failures and burdens at the town’s Burning Boat Festival.
Dan finally earns his son’s love & gets a surprise visitor from ‘Tree Hill’ past! This was the most emotional episode of the season.
Jamie’s (Jackson Brundage) words “He’ll be alright, he’s Grandpa Dan,” echoed throughout the hospital on the March 21 episode of One Tree Hill, as everyone came together after Dan (Paul Johansson) took a a bullet for Nathan (James Lafferty).
Is Dan dying? Is Brooke OK? This week’s ‘One Tree Hill’ was insane!
The March 14 episode of One Tree Hill was the most action-packed hour of the series. Dan (Paul Johansson) put his plan into action to try and save Nathan (James Lafferty), while Brooke Davis (Sophia Bush) was just trying to stay alive.
The March 7 episode of ‘One Tree Hill’ gave a whole new meaning to the song ‘Rock-a-bye Baby. It’s officially creepy now.
Xavier Daniels (Devin McGee) was still lurking around town on this week’s One Tree Hill, and even persuaded Tara (Chelsea Kane) to give him a job at Tree Hill Cafe — right across the street from Karen’s Cafe. My guess is that it didn’t take much convincing, because I have no doubt Tara only gave him the job get under Brooke’s skin. Julian (Austin Nichols) and Brooke (Sophia Bush) decided to stalk Xavier to catch him in a criminal act, and when they saw him “break into a house,” they called the police. Well, he actually lived at the house and had to use the window because he forgot a key. Brooke and Julian merely added fuel to Xavier’s fire.
Fans of Nathan Scott found out they can all rest easy — for now!
Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) was called down to the morgue to identify a body believed to be Nathan (James Lafferty) on the Feb. 29 episode of One Tree Hill — but those tears we saw in the previews turned out to be tears of joy, because Nathan was NOT in the body bag! In her desperate state, Haley even did the unthinkable and turned to Dan Scott (Paul Johannson) for help solve the mystery of her husband’s disappearance. It’s safe to say that hell has frozen over.

What has Lucas been up to? Where is Peyton? And why does Lucas look so much like little Jamie? Chad tells all!
Chad Michael Murray returns to One Tree Hill on the Feb. 22 episode; and while his hair is questionable, his motives are pure. HollywoodLife.com was lucky enough to be on the show’s North Carolina set for Lucas’ epic return, so of course I had to grill the triple-named wonder about what Lucas has planned for his visit to Tree Hill — and what he heck he’s been up to since driving off into the sunset with Peyton (Hilarie Burton)Â at the end of season six.
Nathan’s new foe makes Nanny Carrie look like Mother Teresa! We’re kind of worried.
On the Feb. 15 episode of One Tree Hill, viewers finally found out where Nathan (James Lafferty) is — sort of. It turns out he’s been kidnapped! Also, people in Europe take basketball way too seriously. Apparently, Nathan tried to sign a player who was the “property” of someone else. (It’s just a sport. Winning isn’t everything, remember?!) Unfortunately, his family and friends back in Tree Hill are still left in the dark.
The Feb. 8 episode of ‘One Tree Hill’ proved to be a step towards improvement for some characters — and for others, well, not so much.
Julian (Austin Nichols) was still overly-stressed this week about leaving Davis in the car. He even took Davis to the doctor and insisted something was wrong, or will be wrong with him. The doctor’s orders? A day of rest and relaxation — for Julian. Meanwhile, Brooke (Sophia Bush)’s battle with Tara (Chelsea Kane) turned into an all-out war when Brooke realized Tara may have written a note on Julian’s car, which read: “Fry burgers, not your babies.” Except Brooke didn’t fight Tara — she destroyed her restaurant (refer to the flashback in the season opener). (I may have cheered and yelled ‘rock on, Brooke!’ at my television during that scene.)
Plus, Nathan disappears! Is anyone ever happy in Tree Hill?
The opening scene on the Feb. 1 episode of One Tree Hill brought me close to tears, as Brooke (Sophia Bush) walked right past Julian (Austin Nichols) in the hospital after getting the news about Davis. Julian couldn’t forgive himself for leaving Davis in the car, and Brooke struggled to trust him with the twins — like, she literally had them strapped to her for the entire episode. Trying to help, Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) shared her own “worst parent ever” story and tried to convince Brooke to put herself in Julian’s shoes.
Austin Nichols tells us the dramatic story line is the type of ‘challenge’ he’s been waiting for.
We all knew the ninth season of One Tree Hill was going to be rough, but I don’t think anyone was expecting to see Brooke (Sophia Bush) and Julian’s (Austin Nichols) son Davis being carried off in a stretcher on last week’s episode. “It could happen with any parent,” Austin told HollywoodLife.com during our recent visit to the show’s North Carolina set, adding that “Julian really puts a lot of blame on himself for this thing that happens.”
More trouble for Brooke & Julian’s family! Haven’t these two been through enough?
It looks like Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) has been having a tough time at the diner ever since her chef, Chef Jeff, quit to work at the new “gourmet” restaurant across the street. (Man, Tree Hill really is a small town.) And the infamous Chris Keller (Tyler Hilton) was there to save the day on the Jan. 25 episode of One Tree Hill — if only he could cook! Dan Scott (Paul Johansson) can cook, but unfortunately, it didn’t sit well with the customers that a murderer is cooking their food, leading several to walk out of the diner.
It was a night of comings and goings for the good, beautiful people of Tree Hill — emphasis on the goings.
Peyton (Hilarie Burton) may not be on One Tree Hill anymore, but the Jan. 18 episode provided so many opportunities for one of her classic “people always leave” speeches. Not only did Nathan (James Lafferty) fly off to Europe to pick up Clay’s (Robert Buckley) slack in the agent-ing department, but Alex (Jana Kramer) decided to take her music on the road. The question is: What are they both running from?
Sex, corpses, and endless emotional montages — Tree Hill hasn’t changed one bit!
One Tree Hill returned for its ninth and final season Jan. 11, and it was all sunshine and rainbows from start to finish — well, as long as you don’t count the arson, vandalism, arrests, assaults and dead bodies. I almost forgot about those.
Plus, Sophia Bush weighs in on Brooke’s dad’s highly-anticipated arrival! What kind of drama do you think he’ll bring to Tree Hill?
There are a few more familiar faces returning for One Tree Hill’s ninth, and final, season — plus a few new ones! Warner Bros. has confirmed that, not only will Barbara Alyn Woods reprise her role as Nathan’s (James Lafferty) pill-popping cougar mom Deb for one episode, but Richard Burgi will also recur as Brooke’s (Sophia Bush) oft-discussed-but-never-seen father!
Plus, Shantel confirms Hilarie Burton probably won’t be joining him. Are you bummed?
One Tree Hill fans, Shantel VanSanten is just as excited as we are for the show’s upcoming final season, which she promises will have “lots of mystery and lots of drama.” HollywoodLife.com caught up with Ms. Quinn James at the BCBG Spring 2012 show Sept. 8 during New York Fashion Week for the scoop on season nine!
