Taken from thewb.com:
"One Tree Hill," From Tollin/Robbins and Warner Brothers. Television, moves to the fall schedule,
With "Fearless" moving to midseason on W.B.
BURBANK, CA (July 10, 2003) - ONE TREE HILL, from Tollin/Robbins Productions and Warner
Bros. Television, will move up from midseason to the fall schedule on Tuesday nights at 9:00 p.m. following GILMORE GIRLS,
it was announced today by Jordan Levin, President, Entertainment for The WB. ONE TREE HILL will replace FEARLESS,
which will move to midseason. The move was made at the request of Executive Producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Warner Bros. Television
President Peter Roth.
Joint Statement from Executive Producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Peter Roth, President, Warner Bros. Television
Productions, Inc.:
"After careful and thorough consideration, we have recommended to The WB that to best insure the highest
quality and attention for FEARLESS, we launch the series at midseason. We're extremely grateful to The WB for supporting
us and for allowing us this opportunity."
Statement from Jordan Levin:
"We consider ONE TREE HILL to be one of the strongest pilots we developed the year. We decided
to launch it at midseason in the hopes of replicating the success we had with DAWSON'S CREEK, both being youthful serials
created by strong feature writers and, coincidentally, both shot in Wilmington, North Carolina. We are extremely confident
in this program and feel it has a strong opportunity to breakout this fall amidst a slew of procedural dramas and a compatible
lead-in with GILMORE GIRLS. Another advantage for us is that ONE TREE HILL was scheduled to go into production
on August 12, which means we do not have to accelerate production in order to have the show ready for a fall launch.
"Needless to say, we are thrilled to be in business with Jerry Bruckheimer, whose track record speaks
for itself. We respect his request to give FEARLESS more time to develop naturally. Jerry assures us that he can deliver
a better show for us at midseason. Since we had such a strong program as ONE TREE HILL to move onto the fall schedule,
it made the decision an easy one for us."
About ONE TREE HILL:
Aside from a love for hoops, it would seem that Lucas (Chad Michael Murray, "Dawson's Creek," "Gilmore
Girls") and Nathan (newcomer James Lafferty) are two young men with little in common, but they are bound by the dark secret
that they share the same father. Arrogant and assured, Nathan is the star of the high school basketball team and hails from
a wealthy family. Quiet and driven, Lucas is the only child of a single working mom. Now the two boys' lives collide when
a twist of fate puts Lucas on Nathan's team and the half-brothers compete, not only for control of the court, but also for
the heart of Nathan's beautiful girlfriend Peyton (Hilarie Burton, "MTV's TRL"). Years in the making, a deep and bitter conflict
slowly unfolds as the two boys struggle to come to terms with who they really are, and a father who has chosen to live vicariously
through one son, while ignoring the existence of the other. Also starring Paul Johansson ("John Q," "Beverly Hills, 90210"),
Moira Kelly ("The West Wing"), Craig Sheffer ("A River Runs Through It") and Barry Corbin ("Northern Exposure"). This new
drama is from executive producer Mark Schwahn ("The Perfect Score"), executive producers Mike Tollin, Brian Robbins and Joe
Davola.

He goes home about twice a year, Christmas and the
forth of July! He says he has inherited morals from his dad! His dad instilled such good morals in him he
wakes up every morning and he just wants
to do good things(aww!) he cant help it! He says it feels good. It makes him smile to do good things!!! Isn't that
