There Is Only One Tree Hill

Some people may say that a TV show is just a TV show, but to me, One Tree Hill was much more. I would probably name One Tree Hill as the most quotable TV show I have ever watched as well as the TV show with the best music.

Not only does the show have amazing storylines but the show has some of the best character development I have ever seen on television. Characters go through redemption, grief, depression, happiness and so many other emotions that make the characters seem real. Characters that you hate at first soon become characters that you love.

For me, I see a video, TV show or movie and connect with it. There are certain scenes that stand out to me - the filming, the lighting, the music, the acting, the script... or all of the above. These scenes give me hope that something magical does exist in the world. I think everyone can find this in something they are passionate about and for me, I found a lot of it in One Tree Hill. This show constantly re-inspires me to create magic for other people to believe in.

Out of the whole show I have two favourite scenes. The first one is when Peyton and her brother Derek are boxing. Peyton has been through so much in the first few seasons of the show and at this point she finally decides to fight back. I think this is an important scene because we all need to be reminded to fight back. No matter what has happened to you just keep fighting, like Peyton, and one day you will get your happy ending.

My second favourite scene is when Haley, Brooke and Peyton dance on stage at a Cheerleading competition. Soon the boys join them on stage and they let go of all their cares, just dancing and having fun with their friends. This is a more light hearted scene and that is the reason that I love so much. It shows the importance of friendships and happiness in your life.

As I said before, One Tree Hill is one of the most quotable shows. Here are a few of my favourite quotes from the show:

"Every song ends, but is that any reason not to enjoy the music?" - Peyton Sawyer

"People say hell is endless. They say it's our worst nightmare, the face of our darkness. But whatever it is, however it is, I say hell is empty, and all the devils are here." - Nathan Scott

"Do you ever wonder if we make the moments in our lives, or if the moments in our lives make us?" - Lucas Scott

"There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad, afraid, confused, without a roadmap. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back." - Lucas Scott

"You ever look at a picture of yourself and see a stranger in the background? You know, it makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other people's lives we've been in?" - Lucas Scott

"Actually, it's very rare to see in anybody, they give their hearts to each other, unconditionally. And that's what true love really is. It's not this fairy tale life that never knows pain, but it's two soles facing it together and diminishing it with unconditional love" - Lucas Scott

"Someone once said that death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside of us while we live." - Haley James Scott

"You have one chance, one life and what you do with it is up to you." - Peyton Sawyer

"First of all, you don't know me. Second of all, you don't know me." - Peyton Sawyer

"It's the oldest story in the world. One day you're seventeen and planning for someday. And then quietly and without you ever really noticing, someday is today. And that someday is yesterday. And this is your life." - Nathan Scott
