[Spoilers ahead] This is not an in depth review as I haven’t watched this show in so long. Feel free to add comments so we can discuss!

Brooke Davis: I personally felt that she had one of the best character developments on the show. A strong and independent young lady who was always true to herself. She made her presence known and was always a good friend to others, but never let anyone take advantage. She started her Clothes over Bros empire at such a young age and it paid off. Relationship wise, I felt that Julian Baker was the only man who ever deserved her. The show gave her the ending that she deserved.

Haley James: smart, intuitive, an amazing friend, and an absolutely talented singer. The show starts off with Haley being best friends with Lucas Scott—as the show progresses, she starts to get to know Nathan Scott through her tutoring him. Later on in the show, we see her as being an English teacher at her old high school. Everyone who knows her, is blessed to have her presence in their lives. I would totally want to be friends with her irl. I honestly preferred the friendship of her and Brooke as opposed to Brooke and Peyton. It was more of a mature, two sided type friendship where both parties knew they had each other’s love and support.

Peyton Sawyer: I felt that she was a very complex character. She’s incredibly talented in the arts and music and it showed throughout the series. Peyton suffered through a lot throughout the show but I always saw her as a bit of a pick me, especially with Lucas. She tends to not hold herself accountable for her actions, and it hurts other people in the way.

Lucas Scott: in my opinion, he was one of the biggest LVM’s in the show. He didn’t deserve Brooke at all. The whole love triangle between Brooke and Peyton pretty much showed the type of guy that he is. He cheated on Brooke with Peyton and it was really sad to see Brooke fighting for him when he couldn’t care less about her.

Nathan Scott: the show starts with him being a basketball player, trying to make it to the big leagues after high school. However, this is where I’m lost—we see him as an LVM with Peyton and seems to be a genuine asshole in the beginning too. With Haley, I feel that he changes? What do you all think?
