  • The first episode of One Tree Hill I ever reviewed and it's still one of my favorites

    I am really going to miss One Tree Hill when it ends. I'm so glad I've watched this show these past 8 years. I've loved every episode of it. I love it even more when I watch the DVDs. I'm glad I have them all so I can escape into Tree Hill whenever need to spend some time with my favorite people. This was one of my first reviews and the first episode of One Tree Hill I reviewed. I reviewed in the day after it aired. My original review is below.

    Wow: The time capsule is open and everyone's true feelings are revealed. Awesome concert at Tric and Keith and Karen are getting married. It is about time for them to get together. And I am so glad that Keith is going to adopt Lucas. This was such an exciting episode. Nathan and Haley are getting close again. And Nathan and Lucas are starting to act like brothers again. I love this show. I can't wait for the next new episode. I am terrified to see it too. I don't want anyone to die. I hope its not one of the main characters, but it probably will be.moreless

    Brooke's fashion career just started, with her having to go to New York for a RogueVogue fashion show. Brooke is so happy about it, but there's one problem. The Sparkle Classic cheerleading competition is the same day as the fashion show. After realizing that she would be happier at her competition, she flies back to Charlotte so she can be part of it. When the Raven's cheer routine gets ruined, Brooke jumps in and just starts free-style dancing. The Ravens basketball team gets on stage and starts dancing too. It ends up being a fun, crazy, routine and different school's cheerleaders and basketball players get on stage and join. This episode is definitely one of my favorites from One Tree Hill. It seems like such a carefree, fun time. I love it :)moreless

    The time capsule is unleashed! WOW! This episode was just perfect! It was perfect! The beginning, with Haley seeing Nathan was sad. :( Did THHS always have all those TVs? Brooke's video was just... WOW. Poor Jimmy's video was a little depressing. Brooke's video is on the internet, and she is also number 23 on Limewire! Ah, the number 23 again... My favorite number. =] Bethany Joy Galeotti is such a great singer! "Halo" is an amazing song. She performs it excellently. I loved how Keith protected Dan with those two bullies when they were both younger. And YAY for Karen and Keith getting engaged!moreless

    I feel that this episode is definitely one of my favorites. I love the concerts and all the music that was played in this episode. Even though secrets are revealed, the students still try to keep life drama free. I love how Nathan and Haley still get along all though they are both scared that Haley singing will destroy their relationship again. I am sorry for Peyton that Ellie died before they had a real chance to say good bye. The Brest Cancer concert was a great way to raise money. Over all this episode was truly fun and amazing.moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • When Haley starts to sing her song, she has her left hand on the microphone, with her right hand down to her side. But when the shot changes, she has both hands on the microphone. Edit
    • During one of the shots of the concert, about 30 minutes into the episode, the crane-camera is visible in the shot, in the upper right. Edit
    • Keith tells Lucas that he wants to adopt him and Lucas accepts the offer. Edit: It is highly unlikely that the adoption would go through. Dan is listed as Lucas's legal and biological father on Lucas's birth certificate and therefore, Dan would have to relinquish his rights to Lucas in order for Keith to legally adopt Lucas (which, in all likelihood, Dan would never do). However, Karen stated in a previous episode that Lucas was nearly 18. As soon as he turned 18, Keith could adopt Lucas without any interference from Dan, and would be able to be listed as Lucas's father on all future paperwork. This also seems to be a very symbolic gesture, so that Keith and Lucas could call themselves father and son. Edit

    • Lucas: Great, it's gone global. Haley: Yeah, well at least now the whole world knows all the nice things you said about me, to go along with all the crappy things that Nathan said about me. Lucas: Well, what'd he say when you talked to him? Haley: I haven't talked to him yet, I know, I just don't wanna pry open old wounds. Lucas: Yeah, well I think the time capsule did that for you. Haley: It just really sucks coz now I have to get back up on stage and sing for this benefit. It's like the worst possible time for all this stuff to blow up again. What'd you say to, uh, hooter girl when she made her topless debut? Lucas: Ahhhhh, I told her she looked beautiful. Haley: Oh, god! Lucas: Hey, you know what? If you get into trouble, just roll that one out. Haley: Yeah, I'll remember that, thanks. Edit
    • Brooke: I know how to get the word out. I just need to call Mouth, he can help. And after my whole senator comment on the time capsule, he's so thrilled with me, I think he'd donate a kidney if I asked him to. Peyton: Well, yeah but it's not like it's the first time you've ever told him that. Brooke: What? Peyton: Yeah, he mentioned the whole senator thing when we went on our boy draft date. Brooke: But I never told him about it so how would he have known? Edit
    • Brooke: I mean, there's probably gonna be some great advances in plastic surgery but there really needs to be some sort of record of my body at it's peak. Peyton: OK, we've got a good news/bad news situation here. Brooke: What could be worse than the whole school seeing your boobs? Peyton: The whole world seeing them? Yeah, whoever decided to unleash the time capsule was also nice enough to upload it onto the web. Brooke: Oh my god, I'm internet porn? Some creepy guy is watching me right now! Peyton: Well, I'm guessing that's not all he's doing. Brooke: Ewww! What's the good news? Peyton: You did rank number twenty-three on Limewire. Brooke: Really? Edit
