Hey! This is my first time on here! I just finished rewatching OTH for the 100th time since I watched it as a kid. It got me thinking, for some reason, due to the pandemic, a lot of the lines and quotes many characters had throughout the show really hit harder and closer, felt even more intense and emotional!
I wanted to discuss season 7,8,9.. does anybody feel that during those seasons the show lost a little bit what it was about (like the importance of basketball for instance).. and that it took a more comic side even though before the series was more dramatic? I am not critiquing at all.. just wanted to discuss the shift I felt...
Also.. many didn't like season 9, but I actually saw a lot of character closure and development ( WE FINALLY SAW A GOOD SIDE OF Dan Scott!!). And I know it sucked because Peyton and Lucas were not there... but we did get closer or happy endings for all the other characters which was really nice...
What do you guys think?
P.s., I do love all the seasons, I just feel that after Lucas and Peyton's departure the show took a different tone
