One Tree Hill graced us with nine seasons and 187 episodes of pure gold. From the start you were hooked but never knew you'd end up emotionally attached to fictional characters. You've been through all their drama and tragedies to see them evolve with each episode. From watching OTH you see what it's like to have friends that become your family, to stand up for what you believe in, believe in true love, and to have faith.
