Some tidbits about the One Tree Hill pilot from this week's Drama Queens podcast Before becoming the show we all know and love, THIS was the direction that was originally set for #OneTreeHill! �� Watch the video in the tweet + here are some notes I made from the episode: -The show was originally to be narrated by Whitey (the basketball coach), to his deceased wife Camilla. This changed when producers decided the show should be like 8 Mile and have a ~sexy underbelly~ in an "aw shucks" town. -They all agree Uncle Keith was hot -They freaked out about the scene where Peyton gets out of the shower with Nathan and says, "Hi Mr. Scott!" in a towel. Hilarie says at conventions, they remind fans this is NOT a true high school experience.
