DVD Review: One Tree Hill Season 7

Can you believe it’s been 7 years? I feel like we’ve almost grown up with this show. One Tree Hill has continually managed to transition and do what was needed to stay on while other similar shows met their demise.

With Season 7, we saw the introduction of a number of new characters into Tree Hill. There was Alex Dupre, an actress who becomes the face of Clothes Over Bros. Clay Evans who was Nathan Scott’s agent. Quinn James who was Haley’s older sister. And a number of other new faces thrown in to make the exit of Lucas and Peyton a little less noticeable.

Did it work? I don’t believe the series is the same without Lucas and Peyton, they were the focus of the show for so many years. It just doesn’t feel the same without them.

The Complete 7th Season which was released on August 17th is packed with extras including un-aired scenes, a number of featurettes, commentary, and a gag-reel. The coolest featurette in my opinion was Spring Break with One Tree Hill, a short piece showing two contest winning fans being put to work as production assistants on the show. Lucky fans!

Season 7 Synopsis: The journeys of those who hail from the town of Tree Hill have been vast, from Nathan and Haley’s first kiss to marriage, a son and, most recently, Nathan’s return to the basketball court. Now in its seventh season, One Tree Hill continues to explore the journeys of its beloved characters, while seamlessly introducing new favorites. As the series jumps ahead 14 months, these new relationships infuse the history and change the lives of those who live there. Through it all, these friends and family members realize that life always leads you right where you belong.
