One Tree Hill Series
The music of One Tree Hill has added to the popularity of the
show. Music plays a huge part in both the plot and the movement of the scenes
throughout an episode. Several scenes are tied together seamlessly at the end of
each show and the song, which is usually played in its entirety, helps create a
singular mood from seemingly unconnected events.
One Tree Hill is a teen television drama created by Mark Schwahn
that premiered on September 23, 2003 on The WB Television Network. The show
continued to air on The WB until May 3, 2006 as it was announced that the
network would merge with UPN to form The CW Television Network. The fourth
season began airing on The CW on September 27, 2006 and continues to air on
Mondays at 9/8C. On March 3, 2008, The CW announced that One Tree Hill had been
renewed for a sixth season.
Conception
As stated on Disc 3 of the first season DVD set, Mark Schwahn
originally planned for One Tree Hill to be a feature length film, under the name
of Ravens. He pitched the idea around town but under the advice of a WB front
man, he revised the movie into an hour long teen drama series. Tree Hill is a
fictional town, named from the song "One Tree Hill" by U2. Schwahn had named the
town "Tree Hill" because while he was writing the idea for the show he had been
listening to the album The Joshua Tree by U2. The show was to be called An
Unkindness of Ravens until the network asked Schwahn to change it. Ravens made
the show seem more sports-centred and seeing as their lead-in was Gilmore Girls,
a show with a largely female audience, it would be better to change the name to
broaden the show's appeal.[citation needed] So Schwahn renamed the show One Tree
Hill, appropriately so. At the start of the show, fans often asked Schwahn why
the show was named One Tree Hill when the town was just called Tree Hill. The
question is ostensibly answered when Karen tells Lucas in Episode 1.21 that
"There is only one Tree Hill - and it's your home." 1, Tree Hill is also the
address of Tree Hill High School.
