Season three goes with a bang, literally. It's senior year for the kids at One Tree Hill and this season promises to be one of the best yet. The third season of One Tree Hill consisted of 22 episodes and aired between October 5, 2005 and May 3, 2006.
I have already reviewed what One Tree Hill is in my review of the First Season box set but I will give a little overview of the show here also. The show revolves around the fictional town of Tree Hill set somewhere in North Carolina and is filmed there also. The main characters of the show are two half brothers, Lucas and Nathan who share the same dad and have a different mum. When the show first starts they are in high school and the story lines feature their many adventures with their friends, parents etc.
The basketball team from the local high school features in the school quite a bit as both Lucas and Nathan play in it.
Some of the main girl characters include Peyton, one of Lucas's on/off girlfriends who is very into her music, Brooke, captain of the cheerleading squad, another on/off girlfriend of Lucas and Peyton's best friend. Hayley makes up the trio of main girls.
A lot of the show is played out with voice-overs, often done by Lucas to describe events and how things happen. To me this gives it a very good effect and makes the storylines definitely more dramatic and exciting.
Season three starts at the end of the summer. If you remember from my review of season two Lucas and Peyton were alone for the summer together and seemed to have formed their unbreakable bond. However, Lucas is meant to be dating Brooke and they do eventually get together, only for a short while though, remember this is a teen drama and what would it be without lots of break-ups and make-ups!!
Probably the main focus of this season is a shooting at the school, very topical in this day and age unfortunately but done well and with respect I feel. It stems from some bullying which is a reoccurring theme and culminates in one of the main characters dying and others being injured. Peyton is one of the injured ones and turns to Lucas on the day for support. It is revealed in the end that they kissed that day and Brooke vows not to speak to either of them. Peyton ahs a lot to deal with this season as she finds out she is adopted, that her birth mother has cancer and then the fact that she dies.
Nathan and Hayley get back together again (their relationship is nothing but break-up/make-up) and renew their vows in the finale.
The older generation are featured quite a lot in this season, some interesting parts, some story lines at bit more boring but oh well. Dan and Karen both fight for the position of Mayor of Tree Hill with Dan ending up victorious. However, this season things don't always go his way. Dan believes his brother Keith tried to kill him (it turns out he didn't) but by this point Dan has already killed Keith in the school shooting trying to make it look like it was the shooter. In the very end of the season Dan finds out that somebody knows his little secret, setting up season 4 very nicely.
Karen had gotten close to Keith in this season and reveals that she is going to have his baby.
This is also the season where Lucas's basketball dreams fade and we find out why!
The DVD box set lasts comes with 6 discs and lasts for 968 minutes Various features of the DVD include unaired scenes, a gag reel and audio commentary from cast and crew.
