Because it’s important to learn more from the show than just the lyrics to every Gavin DeGraw song.

1. Creator Mark Schwahn originally wrote One Tree Hill as a feature-length project called Ravens.
2. Executive producers Brian Robbins, Mike Tollin, and Joe Davola spent four years convincing Schwahn to turn the movie into a TV series.
3. The show title comes from the U2 song "One Tree Hill" from the Joshua Tree album.
4. One Tree Hill was originally set in Illinois, but The WB asked Schwahn to set it in a warmer climate, which is how the show ended up taking place in North Carolina.
5. Schwahn wanted Chad Michael Murray to play Nathan, but Murray wanted to play Lucas, so the producers agreed to cast him in that role.
6. James Lafferty didn't have to fake too much to play Nathan. The actor was on his high school basketball team before being cast on One Tree Hill.
7. Sophia Bush read for the role of Brooke three times. The first time she was told she didn't look sexy enough, the second time she was told she looked too sexy, and the third time she was offered the part.
8. Moria Kelly (Karen) found out she was pregnant after the pilot was shot, but Schwahn didn't want to write the pregnancy into the show, so they used an array of props to hide her belly.
