7 Underrated Characters From The Beginning Of 'One Tree Hill'
CW

After watching all nine seasons on Netflix, with no commercials, to then having this show rudely taken off Netflix, now we are only left with Hulu, which is full of Advertisements. It definitely takes a special show to be able to sit through endless commercials, even though you have already watched all nine seasons. From rewatching this amazing series, I discovered nine key characters, who are hidden gems that I most definitely overlooked the first time. Sure, they weren't as popular as the one and only Brooke Davis, or as missed as the beloved Keith Scott, but they hold their own importance to the show.

1. Karen

Okay yes, she was a main character, in basically all of the episodes in the beginning, but her strength and courage is overlooked time and time again. Most of the time she is pitied or looked for as an example of a sad situation, but she took charge of her life and raised beautiful children.

2. The "real" Derek

Very underrated, the real brother of Peyton who put his problems aside to help a girl he just met after the wrath of Stalker Derek.

3. Andy

This man lost his job and career because of the one and only Dan Scott YET still made his way back to Karen, Lucas, and Tree Hill.

4. Marcus from the tutoring center

Okay, at first in the tutoring center he was the huge jerk. But several episodes later, he dropped out of high school and genuinely tried to change his life. He was last seen at Naley's wedding party, when Haley offered to tutor him to get back in school. Oh, how I wish we could have followed his story.

5. Skillz

Thank goodness he gets a bigger part in later seasons. Who doesn't love a good laugh from Skillz in the middle of the crazy chaos of Tree Hill?

6. Glenda

First seen in the shooting episode, Glenda makes her appearances and further changes both Lucas Scott and Brooke Davis for the better.

7. Tim

He went from Nathan's partner in crime to friendless Tim who was always caught saying dumb things all within one season. He comes and goes over the series, but never fully recovers from his bestie break up with Nathan Scott.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
