I kind of hoped "Hundred" to act as the catalyst to this rather dull season of my favourite TV show but I guess I rooted for much."What Do You Go Home To?" is nothing but a repetation of what we had already experienced.moreless

"Fair"

By Munsterberg, Sep 19, 2010 Report Abuse

Season 5 started out really good, promising and fresh. After couple of episodes, it reduced in vigor but still it was fun to watch. "Hundred" was a special and at the same time a classic OTH episode before the break, kind of assuring not to lose faith in season 5 and promising the break might get the season back on track. Now, for the first time ever, I wonder why I bother to watch this show.

Couple of things are wrong with the last two episodes. First, barely something happens in Tree Hill anymore. Yes, the first 4-minute openings are great with nicely exchanged words and a good background music but then the vibe is quickly consumed. Lucas is invisible, Peyton is shallow, Haley and Nathan are stuck and Brooke is, well not Brooke anymore. Other cast members come and go with no steady plot parts. Second, there is lack of originality and inspiration in the new episodes. OTH was once known as a show bold enough to experience new things and pulling interesting storylines. Instead, now we have episodes that are played out. After all, there is nothing new about Haley's revisited music career or Peyton's sullen expressions whenever Lucas shows up. It even takes an entire episode to make Milicent move in or to have Brooke welcome the baby. Oh and how can I forget Dan or Chase who appears for an irrelevant moment just to complete the show's 40 minute run cycle. I intentionally ignore to mention the unrealistic contents like ardency for adoption by a 22-year old or full-time mother/teacher/musician position in life that makes work and family conflict theory trippled in its effect.

I do not know how and why it became such a torture to watch One Tree Hill. I still dig for the forthcoming episodes with a miracle of a change but most of the time I cannot wait for the season to end and the writers to take a break. Clearly, there is something wrong.moreless

"Mediocre"

By krazy4crack, Apr 19, 2010 Report Abuse

I'm not feeling it for One Tree Hill recently. This episode was just very average and nothing much happened. Brooke is getting a baby (boring!), Haley is signing with Peyton's record label (boring!), Nathan is trying basketball again, (boring!), Millicent is moving in with Mouth (boring!), Q gets busted (boring!) and Lucas thinks he's trying to win back Lindsey (awkward!).

This show is letting me down so much that I don't even plan to write a well thought of review for it. The only good thing with this show is Jamie because he is absolutely entertaining, but other than him, it is just a worn out show.moreless

Nathan and Haley interview nannies. Brooke is given a second chance to prove herself to the adopting agency. Mouth is given a chance to have a permanent sports spot in Omaha, which forces Mouth and Millicent to make a decision about their relationship. Meanwhile, Quentin is making trouble with the Ravens coaches. I liked the beginning of this episode. :) I liked "Ride" playing in the beginning of the episode. Sophia Bush is such a great actress! :) Her reaction to the call from the adoption agency was perfect. Nathan is also a horrible rapper. I liked that Peyton automatically said yes to Haley's demo. Peyton was also looking pretty good in this episode.moreless

"Perfect"

By VGFreak8, Jul 11, 2008 Report Abuse

Mouth is offered a job, but he doesn't take it, so he can stay with Millicent. The Ravens are 4-8 and Lucas is disappointed upon his return. Quentin was lying about his hand, so Lucas, Skills, and Nathan make him get the cast. Haley wants to make a record with Peyton. Nathan tries basketball, but he isn't good. Dan seems to be following Nathan. Brooke has news! She is getting a baby, but only for a temporary time. Lucas still loves Lindsey. Mouth wants Millicent to move in, but she's afraid at first because she's a virgin. She does though. Haley and Nathan interview potential nannies, but none are good. Haley hires Deb! Chase visits Brooke to say goodbye. Brooke gets her baby!

This episode was great! I loved the opening sequence with everyone waking up! Awesome!! I'm glad Brooke is getting a baby! I don't like Quentin as much as I did when I saw him last. Mouth and Millicent are cute together, but I don't think it's right for her to move in with 4 guys. It was so great seeing Deb again! This episode gets a 10 out of 10!moreless

"Good"

By stewie1423, May 19, 2008 Report Abuse

Okay, so this was good, definitely not season fives best, but it was a start at getting good again. Jamie is a great character, like the whole Chester thing. Its cool to see how he bonds with everyone. Good to see Nathan and Haley together again. Nathan trying basketball was okay, not that exciting but alright. I much preferred Haley deciding to make an album with Peyton, really like there friendship, so this should be good.

Lucas brooding, being honest, I couldn't care less. His character seems to get worse, by the episode. Get over it, Lindsey doesn't want you, get with the one you OBVIOUSLY want, Peyton. Brooke getting the baby was interesting, I thought Chase return again was a tad pointless and a bit soppy for my liking, but overall I enjoyed this story.

Did anyone else see how stupid the end was? Brooke was just handed a baby at an airport ... no discussion, no information, that was it. Anyhow, I do look forward to see how this storyline works out. Wonder what Deb will be like, now that she's back?

Mouth and Millicent, fairly annoying really, REALLY don't like Mouth so .... Dan was okay, as usual.

Good episode, hope it improves though.moreless

ADD TRIVIA
- Millicent says that she can't go to Omaha because the closest Clothes over Bro's location to Omaha is the one in Tree Hill. But in Episode 5.04 Victoria mentions a store in Houston. Houston is closer to Omaha than Tree Hill. Edit
- When Nathan and Haley are talking on the couch while Deb plays with Jamie, Haley takes a cup of wine from Nathan with her right hand, but in the next scene she has it in her left hand. Edit
- This is the first episode that the audience hears Haley call her mother-in-law, Deb, "Mom." Haley had previously referred to her as "Deb" or "Mrs. Scott." Edit

- Chase: You know, Brooke, Owen's my friend and I know he's really into you, but... He's just kind of always been about his independence, too, you know? Brooke: I guess I didn't know. Chase: He's just a little threatened with all the baby stuff. Brooke: Yeah, he said that on the phone. Look, did he send you over here to talk to me? Are we in junior high now? Chase: He didn't send me over and he's not coming by either. Brooke: Then why did you? Chase: Well... I'm taking off. I thought I'd say "goodbye" and "congratulations". And maybe I want to see your face one more time. Probably why Owen's not coming by. Brooke: What is that supposed to mean? Chase: Well, he probably figures if he looked in those eyes one more time, he'll cave on the whole independence thing. Anyways, call me if you need anything...someone to talk to, new carpets... I don't know, a husband... I'll see you around. (leaving) Hey, Brooke? Don't take the Owen stuff too personally. Brooke: I won't. Chase: Yeah, you will. I know how you are. It's… It's just a big deal. It's kids. I mean, I know it's just one, but if you really want a family, something that's like forever... "Forever" scares a lot of us. Edit

- Lucas: Hey, Brooke. You okay? Brooke: I think I made a big mistake. Lucas: I think it's a little late for that, isn't it? Brooke: If I wanted a "little late for that", I would have called Peyton. You are supposed to say: "No, you didn't. You're gonna be fine". Lucas: No, you didn't. You're gonna be fine. Brooke: It doesn't count now. Lucas: So, you got a purple monkey, huh? Just like you had. Brooke: You remember that? Lucas: Of course. I do know some things about you, Brooke Davis. You're gonna be a great mom. Brooke: I'm not even gonna be a mom. I just fix her up and then I have to send her back. Lucas: Well, if you didn't do it, who would? Brooke: Owen thinks I'm being selfish. He thinks I just want what I want. Lucas: Well, I'd say it's the opposite. Brooke: Right? Lucas: I think it's great that you're willing to help little girl get the care that she needs and get to the rest of her life. Brooke: So do I. But what if I do something wrong, Luke? What if I hurt her? What if I break her? I mean, I rushed into this and I'm scared. Lucas: You know what? When it comes to single moms, I had a pretty special one. And it's good that you're a little scared. But you're gonna do great. Brooke: Thanks. Thanks for coming over. You think she'll like the purple money? Lucas: I think that she's gonna love the girl who gives it to her. Edit
