You do not deceive me One Tree Hill

Aha! Some classic One Tree Hill deception was brought out in today's episode.  Trying to trick us mere mortals that the mean tutor had run into Jamie and Brooke's car on the bridge on that almost fatal night.  I of course was not fooled at all, and did not even doubt once that he was responsible for the crime.  So obvious.  The hard father with the difficult relationship with his son sacrifices everything he has so that his son can succeed.  A classic.  I can't believe it took Nathan so long to work out.

Julian was very angry in this particular episode, it did not suit him at all.  I much prefer him as a wise owl.

Quinn grated me exceptionally.  She is generally annoying as a character and I feel I only allow this as she is so fit.  I realised tonight for the first time that in the opening credits they show Millicent wearing her "zero is not a size t-shirt", despite the fact that Quinn is as wide as a broom handle. This of course, is by know means a bad thing, just saying.  Theme tune was also shocking again.

How big was that baby by the way?  Jesus.

Ooooooo. Look at us.  We're Millicent and Mouth, team journo.  What should we write about?  Drug stores? Planes?  Oh no wait, they have no relevance to anything.  AHA!!! They are building on the river court, let's prevent this because of all the memories.  Let's write about that. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Chase.  Be reasonable.  Get with Alex.  You will never do any better.  Especially not with Amy Winehouse.

Brooke leaving for New York, the river court closing, Nathan quitting basketball.  It all seems to be coming to a nice uneventful end.  I am concerned another season beckons though.  What misery can we expect from that?  I cannot contain my excitement.

Waaaaaaaahey

A twist.  Two in fact!  They did come in separate episodes, as individually they were far too boring to be written about in separate entities.  Therefore I decided to create a superblog. Lol.   I was most delighted, and actually punched my fist in the air with elation when the second twist arrived.

First twist being that the Nathan Scott of Baseball was the man who knocked the car into the river.  I had incorrectly, although in light of recent predictability, entirely reasonably assumed it was Chase, as there have been several shots of him drinking recently.  I also wondered if it was going to be the annoying child's alcoholic mother.  I'm glad that it was who it is though.  Will Nathan give him a chance or will he ruin him like he deserves to be ruined?  I presume that One Tree Hill's obsession with morality will ensure that the Nathan Scott of baseball pays for what he has done.  Hear hear!

In the birthing episode, they went for the classic flashback style.  I quite enjoyed this, as it reminded me of the days when One Tree Hill was actually good.  From the start I had hoped that one of several situations would arise - that Hayley would die, that the baby would die, that Brooke's baby would be an ethnic minority or that  the girl would decide not to give up her child.  My dream was in fact that Mouth would be run over by a steam roller, but that was probably too much to wish for and also slightly irrelevant.  The last one, arguably the most likely, happened.  I was pleased it did, as I enjoy watching the suffering more than the joy.  Poor Brooke and Julian, they were so close to the most ridiculously easy adoption in history, only to have it snatched from them at the final moments.  Oh well, I'm sure she will either miraculously become pregnant or get a child soon enough.  I also enjoyed how she held Hayley's baby whilst suppressing her pain.  Well done Brooke.

Jamie Scott's weird narration was also highly unnecessary and irrelevant.  I do not care about how many babies are born daily.  I do not watch One Tree Hill to find out such information.

Finally, I keep forgetting to do this but the theme tunes are deteriorating at a rate of knots.  Every episode has a different one.  This one was a nice little grunge number.  I'm sure Gavin de Graw or whatever his name is will not be content.  Maybe they are going to bring out a One Tree Hill Season 8 theme tunes album.  I will not be buying it, nor should anyone.  They'll be lucky if anyone buys the box set.

The 40 minute adoption

Speechless.  It is highly ironic that I have formulated the strength to blog about this episode.  I even said previously that it would take Brooke and Julian 40 minutes to adopt a child.  I didn't realise it was so easy.  Really, one should urge the writers of One Tree Hill to advise all those desperate want to be parents across the world that it only takes one day.  You just go and meet a pregnant girl, lie during an interview, then allow her to have your home address so that she can bring round some cookies and meet your friends and discover your lies, then allow her to leave for a short time to mull over the relatively minor decision of giving up her child, and then allow her back just before bedtime to confirm that the child will be yours upon birthing.  FML.  How insulting.  I mean did they actually consider that a real person who was undergoing such a sensitive ordeal as adoption, would go home after their first meeting, and jump on the bed shouting "i'm getting a baby, i'm getting a baby".  Christ almighty.

This episode's only saving grace was that Hayley decided to refer to the near drowning of her son, best friend and her partner.  It has only been 4 episodes without mentioning the storm episode.  Hayley decided to thank Brooke for the feat of saving her son's life (even though it was Julian) conveniently in front of the potential birth mother, making Brooke seem perfect, in spite of the many flaws revealed moments before.  I of course presume this is what Hayley was referring to, although it is entirely likely that past heroics to save Jamie Scott by Brooke Davis have simply slipped my mind.

I do not like the ugly Nathan Scott of baseball, he is a jerk.  Why would anyone sign him?  He clearly is lacking practically all of the qualities required of a professional sportsman.  I do enjoy however that Nathan's college life appears to have taken a back step.  Perhaps that was just too boring to continue further.

I almost cut myself when I saw Quinn having flashbacks of the weird heaven-like garden that she and Clay decided to visit when they were half dead.  Why was that necessary?  I had presumed that Clay would propose there and then, but obviously that was just too predictable.  The proposal must be days away now.

Considering One Tree Hill is meant to be a teen drama, it lacks a considerable amount of drama.  It is boring and predictable, yet somehow addictive.  If someone has actually read this attempt at a blog, I do believe to date 4 people have had the pleasure, they may wonder why I watch it.  This question I cannot answer, I feel like it still has something good to give, but is just currently failing on all fronts.  We shall see.

Valentine's Shite

I want to blend my face.  What in the name of God is happening to this programme.  People do not watch One Tree Hill for this weird happy happy romance.  They want pain, anguish, heart break , Dan Scott, lust, death, excitement.  The show is now entirely void of any of the characteristics that once made it so great.  It is entirely predictable and cliche. Nathan and Hayley are so happily married it makes me want to vomit.  Surely they could think of something to drive a wedge between them.  An affair would be excellent.

Quinn and Clay are such a bore as well.  If she wasn't so attractive I would wish her away.  Who the hell was that moaning tattooed singer?  The fact that Brooke is unable to conceive makes her and Julian somewhat interesting, although no doubt they will manage to adopt a baby within 40 minutes any day now.  I wish Nathan would stop seeing himself in all young athletes and that he wasn't so deep all the time.

The Chase and annoying child thing is verging on weird now.  What the hell is a big brother?  I jut hate Mouth, but major lols if Millicent got the job instead of him.

Dan Scott!!

Hurrah! Who would have thought that only today I would have written about Dan Scott, and then he should appear again.  Working at a burger shack in the woods, rocking an interesting bearded wild man look. Oh well he is of course a crazed murdering lunatic and can therefore pull off most looks.  His aim seemed somehow to persuade Quinn not to murder the murderer.  I am slightly confused as to this storyline, as there seems to be absolutely no police involvement whatsoever.  All they seem to have done was to put some tape across the front door of the beach house.  This "do not enter" sign was ignored by Nathan previously who then appeared to scrub all evidence from the scene.  How annoying for Quinn that she didn't have it in her to brutally murder the blonde murderer.  Especially now that she's back and Quinn threw her gun in the sea.  Looks like she's going to regret that decision.  Didn't see that coming - oh no wait yes I did.

Brooke and Julian, Bless.  He took her on a fake sky dive and  then to a place with the most ridiculously large moon known to man.  I enjoy that Brooke has lost everything and yet still drives a big jeep and a lives in a huge house.  Maybe the debtors didn't notice those assets when she "lost everything".

Last week a NBA star, yesterday an agent, today a college student.  Nathan what are you doing?  Be reasonable and live off your success.

Alex the actress was hotter than ever and deceived Amy Winehouse by kissing Chase.  I hope he deceives Winehouse too and then she leaves Tree Hill for good then overdoses on crack.  The Irish person sang tonight   and I still don't understand her.  Kid Kudi appeared for no reason, using the classic "You'll never guess who I've booked at tric" line.  Jeez, they've only used that about 35 million times.  At least its better than when Sheryl Crow walked into Karen's Cafe by chance back in the day.

Generally a decent episode, but not without its disappointment.  Anything with Dan Scott in, and Mouth not in has to be reasonable.

Blog

So this is blogging,  I guess you just sit here and type stuff that people may or not read and then save it on the internet.  Kind of weird when you think about it. Anyway I'll probably do it about 4 times then never do it again, but here goes...

Alas. I am currently engaging myself in One Tree Hill Season 8.  (I appreciate that  this is probably out of date due to the fact that I live in England). Well.  I never watched One Tree Hill when it was on first. I think for a substantial amount of time I thought it was called One True Hill.  Anyway, when I was at University I was required to complete a year abroad in Spain.  In order to survive this I purchased Series 1-5 and enjoyed it greatly.  Dan Scott was excellent and Brooke Davis was outrageously attractive.  After then I think it was that the series definitely deteriorated.  This enraged me greatly because my fave TV show ever was The OC and that was cut short after 4 seasons, and One Tree Hill seems to be immortal.  Anyhow I continued to watch and saw some terrible stories, including what I do believe to be the worst 40 minutes of TV viewing I have ever experienced in some sort of 1940's imaginary episode.  It was atrocious.  I hate that in One Tree Hill they love dream episodes.  They are always awful.

So far I have seen about 8 episodes of this season.  I would be lying if I said I were impressed.  Nothing happens.  When it started as a dream after the shooting I actually nearly planted my head through the television,  After planning my suicide for 39 minutes I was most relieved to discover they were actually injured.  Turns out I had endure several more episodes of Quinn and Clay walking around in this sort of purgatory place, between life and death.  Quinn was first to survive, which I was most relieved about because she is so beautiful, and then Clay survived at the expense of a black man and his kidney.

Jamie Scott has lost all novelty.  They have obviously realised he is too small and fat to be a basketball player like his father and uncle and now seem to be taking him down the baseball route.  That is about it for him.  Also Hayley need be pregnant as she is increasing in size.  Poor Nathan retiring though, good job it only took a day for him to become an agent.

I quite like Julian.  He is so wise, but I wish he didn't film everything.  That annoys me.  Brooke's story is good too, but really keep the money, the investors take that risk.  I do not care about the Barman, or the healthy Amy Winehouse person or the actress, but he should choose the actress because she is insanely hot.

Don't even get me started on Mouth and Millicent.  He is the weirdest human being the world has ever known.

There is a new Irish person.  Genuinely never heard an Irish person talk like that.  She keeps saying some weird word for cheers as well. No idea what that is.

Well that is it.  My First Blog.  If you liked it good, if not i'm sure there are better ones.  It won't always be about One Tree Hill,  sometimes it could be football, or tv shows that are still on TV, or perhaps something new that takes me fancy.
