It’s been about three months since fans were last able to peer into the lives of their favorite TV characters. To them, though, One Tree Hill is more than just a television show. It’s been a part of their lives for five years now, going on six.
And in that length of time, each fan has developed his or her own hopes and fears for their favorite Tree Hill-ite. Many will even fly or drive from hundreds of miles away on a chance they might run into a film crew and get a little sneak peek of upcoming episodes.
We found a crowd of more than 40 lucky fans who discovered One Tree Hill filming Aug. 7 at the Barbary Coast bar on South Front Street. While they congregated across the street, we talked to a few girls (they’re almost always girls) and asked what they’d like to see happen in the new season.
Then that darn nice Sophia Bush walked up and started signing autographs. No one paid attention to a reporter after that, but here’s what we did get out of them:
Shea Merrill
Tennessee
“I’m looking forward to finding out about who Lucas is going to pick.”
Kayla Baughn
Tennessee
“I just want to know what the nanny is up to because she said, ‘If you didn’t like me last season then you really won’t like me this season.’ So, I did not like her last season. I don’t think anybody did.”
Stephanie Baughn
Tennessee
“I want to know if Dan’s dead or not. It’s really been bothering me, but I’m just
curious.”
Frankie Merrill
Tennessee
“I want to see what happens with Nathan’s basketball career.”
Nicole Connelly
New Jersey
“I hope to see a lot more Nathan and Haley scenes. Everybody loves those. Season five really didn’t have that many. And I’m a ‘Leyton’ fan so I want to see Lucas and Peyton together. And I want them to get renewed and their contracts and have a season seven. I don’t want it to end.”
“Dan was hit by a car and with his beeper paging so, I like Dan, even though he brings a certain element to the show that other shows don’t have. So even though he’s evil and he’s the villain, I think he’s great so I hope they keep him around, too and keep him in the story line. I’d like to see Karen come back, actually, Lucas’ mother. I really liked her.”
“I flew from Jersey to come here. I was here for seven days just for this. I extended my trip for two days. I was here with my mom, she had to go back to work. But, yeah, I came to Wilmington just strictly for One Tree Hill. I just came down here in the hopes of seeing them film . . . I got autographs from Sophia Bush, Chad Michael Murray and James Lafferty. And I got a picture with all three of them. And then I got a picture with Lisa Goldstein (Millicent) and then Michaela McManus (Lindsey).”
Amber Stares
Tennessee
“I’m wondering if Brooke is going to get her baby that she adopted to have surgery. So I’m kind of wondering what’s going on with that ’cause she’s supposed to be getting a phone call and I’m assuming that’s from the doctors.”
