After months of agony, wondering whether lovebirds Clay and Quinn would survive, One Tree Hill has finally returned. The shows season 8 premiere, "Asleep at Heavens Gate", began with Haley writing a letter to her best friend Lucas about how all of Tree Hill misses him. Following this snooze fest, I mean Lucas and Peyton are sooooo season 6, are scenes the returning viewers all saw at the end last season. The first five minutes are a boring but they are followed by lots of drama and twists.Happily Ever AftersHere it is, the moment we have been waiting 8 years for. Brooke has kept a man. And theyre getting married. Isnt that precious? But seriously, I am happy that Brooke is getting her happy (yeah right) ending after so years of heartbreak and losers (case in point, Lucas, who cheated on her multiple times). I guess well just have to wait and see how this all pans out.

In tonights episode of One Tree Hill,"I Cant See You But I Know Youre There," life didnt get much better for any Tree Hillers as problems from last week carried over and new drama occurred.This plot reminded me a lot of season fours "Songs to Love and Die By" when Lucas was stuck in an alternate reality with Keith trying to return to the real world. Though the situations differed, the basic premise was the same, making me question the writers abilities to come up with new story lines.

After a surprising Monday that saw most new shows succeed (with the exception on FOXs Lone Star, which is already on death watch), Tuesday was a lot more stable.

Endings and new beginnings dominated tonights One Tree Hill as several major characters closed on a chapter of their lives and opened new ones. With some soul searching, the Tree Hillers gathered the pieces of their injured lives and pieced them back together.Directed by cast member James Lafferty (Nathan), "Nobody Taught Us to Quit" was a breath of fresh air to those of us who havent been too excited about the season thus far. We saw the characters that we know and love battle their problems while providing us with a few laughs and a quality hour of television, something I feel the first four episodes severely lacked.Dont miss what happened with Haley and Mia on Life Unexpected last night>>

In honor of Tyler Hiltons return in the season 3 One Tree Hill Halloween episode, Im writing this recap while listening to his latest tracks. How awesome would it have been for him to reappear as one of the open mic contestants? Oh, Chris Keller, I miss you.Speaking of Hilton, who is your favorite One Tree Hill character of all time?>>But, anyway, on to what happened tonight on OTH. In the episode, ironically titled "Not Afraid," Quinn saw Crazy Katie everywhere, clowns haunted Haley, and Brooke went up against Cruella de Vil. Jamie and friends went door to door, and Nathan explored a new career option.

Friends fought and made up, daughter and soon-to-be mother-in-law disagreed over wedding plans, but other than that, nothing happened on this weeks One Tree Hill. All "Luck Be a Lady" consisted of was a few good laughs and several arguments over friendships, wedding photographers and relationships. What was the point?The writers really sacrificed storyline tonight in order to provide strings of one-liners that, while funny, left me feeling like Id just wasted an hour of my life. Julian still doesnt have a (breathing) best man, and Brooke isnt any closer to finalizing wedding plans. What I really wanted to know was: What happened to Crazy Katie? Its now been several months since she attacked Clay and Quinn, and she still hasnt returned. WHERE IS SHE?

This weeks One Tree Hill revolved around the characters answers to questions for Julians documentary. While the episode was well-written and nicely done, it still felt like the calm before (a hopefully magnificent) storm that OTH has been known to pour on its fans.

Relationshipsare tricky business, particularly if youre either a rich and famous Hollywoodstar or a fictional character. In Shipping News each week, Ill break down foryou the three most note-worthy (to me!) relationships -- i.e. ships -- o theweek into the Tip-Top Ship Shape (for the best ship of the week), That Ship HasSailed (for romances that fell apart) and You Sunk My Relation Ship (for the mostdevastating moment in a romance were shipping for). Got a duo youre totallyshipping for? Drop me a line in the comments, and you may see them featuredhere.Tip-Top Ship Shape: Nick Lachey & Vanessa Minnillo and Jessica Simpson& Eric Johnson"Yay! Were getting married ... to other people!"Granted, some peeps may be calling shenanigans on the fact thatformer Newlyweds Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpsons engagements to their respectivesignificant others, former VJ Vanessa Minnillo and NFL player Eric Johnson,just happened to fall within a week of each other (with Lachey scoring theproverbial "FIRST!" comment on the message board of life). But I, forone, am glad these two kinda dull crazy kids are finally settling down --again.

After nine dull, meaningless episodes, Im beginning to have an ember of hope for One Tree Hill. Though Ive felt this season has been outdated and boring, "Lists, Plans" had a purpose, containing a balance of hatred and love and leaving me excited for the second half of season 8.

I have never been a fan of scary movies. They freak me out and I hate knowing that a character is about to get murdered while I am powerless to stop them. However, tonights episode of One Tree Hill entitled "Darkness on the Edge of Town," which seemed better fitted for Halloween than Christmas, was simply brilliant. There was suspense, drama, heart-breaking moments, love and justice. The episode contained parallel storylines of hate/revenge and love.

Now shes back making waves on the small screen as insurance company investigator Sara Ellis, a recurring character on USA Networks White Collar. Though its not certain how long shell remain on the mystery drama series, Burton, who returned Tuesdays episode "Burkes Seven," has plenty to say about what her character brings to the table and her chemistry with Neal (Matt Bomer), as well as her plans for the future.

With only one week left until Brookes big day, One Tree Hill returned tonight after the dark and gloomy fall finale with a lighthearted episode in which the girls went on a The Hangover-type search for the truth about what really happened the night before at Brookes bachelorette party. Haleys nice and relaxing spa party turned into a night of energy drinks and booze, a bad mixture.The next morning the girls awaken to a series of mysterious circumstances. Sylvia has appeared. Brookes ring has disappeared. Quinn has a new ring of her own ... in her mouth. Alex has a black eye, Millys acquired a tramp stamp of boots, Dave Navarros number is written in chocolate on Brookes leg and theres a random skateboarding dog.

After eight years of watching Brooke on her relationship roller coaster, she has finally found The One. Brooke married Julian on Tuesday nights episode of One Tree Hill entitled "The Other Half of Me" during the ceremony of her dreams. The episode was beautiful as it tugged at heart strings and made the audience laugh at the right moments. I absolutely loved the references to many of the shows previous moments. The references reminded those who have been watching OTH for years of some of the shows craziest and most heart-wrenching moments and was an excellent way to wrap up (assuming Brooke and Julian stay together) Brookes love story. The video montage of Brooke and Julians relationship was adorable, and I loved that she walked down the aisle to Trains "Marry Me." It was the perfect song for the occasion.As Skills reminded us, Tree Hill does not have the greatest track record when it comes to weddings. In season 2, Jules left Keith at the alter after realizing she had true feelings for him and could not continue to carry out Dans evil plans. Season 3 ended with Nathan, who had just remarried Haley, jumping into a river to save Rachel and Cooper. A couple years (real time) later, Lindsey left Lucas at the alter because he was still in love with Peyton. Finally, after a seemingly fairytale wedding with Lucas, Peyton nearly died due to a pregnancy complication, causing the doctors to perform a c-section. Needless to say, I was worried that this wedding either wouldnt happen or would be followed by terror, but fortunately it all went off without any problems.

If you turned on the TV for a well-written, exciting drama, tonights One Tree Hill entitled "Holding Out for a Hero" was not the show to choose. If you were looking for no plot and a lesson on fighting bullies, OTH was just the show to feast your eyes on. Tonights episode lacked a "previously on" segment due to the fact that nothing that occurred in this episode related in any way to anything that has ever happened on this show. Brooke, Quinn and Haley became "superheroes" while Chase decided he wanted to help people and Alex chose to turn the other cheek and be kind to Mia. Three things stuck out to me in this episode. Number one: Michael Oher! OK, not the real Oher, but Quinton Aaron, who played Oher in The Blind Side, guest starred as Nathans classmate and member of the Kellerman Sucks Club. Number two: Stephen Colletti is now a series regular and was featured in the opening credits. And number three: I actually understand Brittany (from Glee). "I cant die yet. At least not until One Tree Hill gets canceled." OTH, though always over the top and ridiculously unbelievable, used to produce story lines that at least contained good drama, semi-fresh plotlines and kept the viewers interested. Now the episodes consist of trite moral lessons and keep me wondering: How has this show lasted EIGHT years?

Valentines Day is a day for love and romance, but on One Tree Hill, its mostly about one thing: sex. The show that glorifies that tradition of slutty wedding sex is ready for a very hot and heavy Valentines Day where the only thing on the menu for the couples is each other.

Love was in the air as tonights One Tree Hill focused on the different ways the four main couples, plus Chuck and Chase, spent their Valentines Day. Overall, the episode was cute and showed the characters for who they are and not their superhero alter egos.I know I was harsh last week and many people disagree with me, but I can say that one of the things I truly love about OTH is the opportunities it gives the actors to direct. I thought OTH veteran Paul Johansson did a great job directing once again. And though I love him behind the camera, I love him even more in front of it. Mark Schwahn, PLEASE bring back Dan!

In the post-Super Bowl episode of Glee, Brittany revealed that she didnt want to die before One Tree Hill was canceled. As a fan of both shows, I completely understand her feelings.I also think Glee could stand to take a lesson or two from One Tree Hill. Sure, Glee is far more successful than the CW series, but One Tree Hill is currently in its eighth season, so its clearly done something right.

New beginnings faced the Tree Hillers on tonights episode of One Tree Hill as they set out on new paths. Brooke and Julian took the first steps toward adoption, Haley decided on a name for her baby, Fortitude gained a client, Jamie tried out for little league, and Millie had her first day of work.Though most characters know where they hope to end up in life, others are beginning (or continuing) to question what they want in their personal and professional lives and how they will get there. The girls teased Quinn about the possibility of her and Clay getting engaged, making her wonder whether marriage was in the near future, while Mouth dealt with his inability to get a job by helping Millie handle hers.

After tonights episode of One Tree Hill, I have faith for the rest of the season. Finally season eight is seeing some drama. As Nathan realized his newest client almost killed his son, his wife went into labor. This was an interesting twist, one that reminds me of the old days when OTH contrasted happy and gut-wrenching story lines every week. As some readers commented, the characters are getting older and the problems that they faced as teenagers wouldnt fit into their adult lives. However, this twist is an adult problem, one that Nathan will have to deal with maturely as he deals with Ian both as a client and a criminal who almost tore in future apart. Prior to learning the truth about the car crash, Nathan and Clay officially signed Ian to their agency, making Nathans position even more difficult as he will have to interact professionally with Ian regardless of his personal feelings. Though Nathan and Clay hoped to transform Ian with a morality clause, Ian doesnt seem like a guy whos open to changing his ways.

While most TV shows dont end their seasons until the middle or end of May, filming ends in April, which is when you get all the news about the final story arcs. For One Tree Hill, that comes with a bit of casting (or in this case, non-casting) news and a new twist for the season 8 finale.

If you have never in your life seen One Tree Hill, then "Quiet Little Voices" would be a good episode to start with. Not because the episode was so fantastic that my faith in OTH is renewed and I want everyone to share this undying love with me, but because half the episode is flashbacks and easily catches the audience up on the basic relationships of the regular characters. The shows original main characters are not shown or mentioned a single time in the episode, but that isnt surprising, since OTH likes to forget that anyone besides Naley, Brulian, Clay, Quinn or Jamie existed in Tree Hill before season 7.

Welcome to The GBU, a weekly column coming every Monday where I look at the Good, the Bad and the Ugly on TV.The clip show is a classic device for TV shows in their later years. By looking back at all the great moments of seasons past, a show can create a new episode very cheaply by reusing old footage. However, this doesnt mean the clip show has to be bad. Sometimes, if surrounded by a strong enough story, the clip show can be very effective.

After a year of highs and lows on One Tree Hill, tonights finale was definitely one of the seasons better episodes, as it wrapped the season up nicely, giving an insight into the futures of all the characters. The series finale-esque style made sense because word of The CWs decision to renew OTH came only hours before the episode aired. Nevertheless, it is official. Tree Hill and its residents will grace our television screens for at least 13 more episodes.Above all, the finale, which spanned a one year time frame, focused around the characters relationships, leaving most of the drama behind to give the show a clear ending in case of cancellation.
