Only One Tree Hill :)

Advantages: Characters, Plot, Music, Actors, basically everything
Disadvantages: Might end soon!

...on DVD, and knew I had to buy it. It came in an orange, quite large box set. It?s just an orange bit of cardboard with one side folded in to keep the DVD?s in place, this isn?t actually too strong as mine is starting to fall apart now. The front of the box set has a picture of the cast members, the name of the show, the season number and the rating. When you turn it over, the back of the box set shows a basic synopsis of the show?s plot, the cast, a few pictures from the show, the rating again but this time with reasons, a list of the special features and information such as the running time and the language. The show is set in and around a small Californian town called Tree Hill with many different residents and many things happening. It starts when Lucas Scott (Chad Michael Murray) is accepted onto the basketball team...

Review of One Tree Hill - Series 1 (Box Set) (DVD)

One Tree Hill - Season 1

Advantages: Great show, beautiful people
Disadvantages: None

...friend and ends up marrying Nathan in season one. 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. The show also relies heavily on music and this is something that sets it apart from other teen shows I believe. They often have new artists or bands performing at the club in the show and this is not only a talent show case for them but also attracts a broad range of viewers to their show. Very clever marketing if you ask me. One Tree Hill - Season one The first season came out in 2003/2004 and the DVD box set of season one came out on January 25th 2005. When the show first starts Lucas and Nathan hardly have any contact and really don't like each other. Their father Dan provided...

ONE TREE HILL

Advantages: great show, actors.
Disadvantages: bit too dramatic.

...One Tree Hill At the time that One Tree Hill came out, one of its biggest rivals was fellow teen show The OC and I have to admit I was a bigger fan of The OC than One Tree Hill, but the ratings for One Tree Hill must have been a lot better, as The OC was cancelled and One Tree Hill is currently in it's fifth season and lately I have been watching re-runs and the current series and really enjoying it. Here is why. The Plot When the show first started it follows the basketball team of the Tree Hill Ravens in their school life and their home life. The show started off based around two main charecters, Lucas Scott who is the only child of Karen and distant father's other son from another relationship. Dan Scott is the two boys father and disowned Lucas and Karen when he was young and favours his other son Nathan and his...

Review of One Tree Hill - Series 5 (Box Set) (DVD)

One Tree Hill - the second instalment

Advantages: Carries on the good work
Disadvantages: None

...The second season of One Tree Hill consisted of 23 episodes and ran from September 21, 2004 to May 24, 2005. 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...

Review of One Tree Hill - Series 2 (Box Set) (DVD)

King of the Hill - Series 4

Advantages: You'll Either Love It
Disadvantages: Or You'll Hate It

...Like many others, I first became a fan of King of the Hill as a result of stumbling home from a bar or club at 1am, cooking up some munchies with my friends and sticking on Channel 4. For those who have never seen King of the Hill before I'd offer two pieces of advice. Firstly, don't make this box set your first purchase - start with Series 3, where the characters are still being introduced to a certain degree, and where maturity has improved the quality of humour. Secondly, King of the Hill isn't for everyone. If you're expecting the multi-layered family comedy of the Simpsons then think on. If you're thinking of the 'random' humour of Family Guy, then think on. If however you enjoy the subtle references and more adult-orientated gags of Homer Simpson, but detest Bart and Lisa, this could be for you. The series is set in...

3 box set, top gun, beverly hills cop

Advantages: bargain for 3 movies
Disadvantages: not what so ever

...best friend. And beverly hills cop finds Axel Foley a free-wheeling cop from Detroit, investigating the murder of his best friend and finds himself dealing with a whole different crime culture in California, having been led there by mikeys killer . Having spent some time trying to lose 2 detectives sent to keep an eye on him he enlists their help, and the help of another friend of his who works in an art galley, they track down mikeys killers to make sure they can not kill any body else. This box set is available online from around £7 which is a bargain really for 3 movies, although it may be available on ebay for less. Totally worth it though for some classically great movies. When i bought my top gun on its own i paid £5 for that from ebay....

Review of Top Gun / Beverly Hills Cop / Ferris Bueller's Day Off (80's Bloke Box Set) (DVD)

The Hills

Advantages: Funny, tacky
Disadvantages: None

...The Hills is my guilty little pleasure. There's backstabbing, friendships, boyfriends, clubbing, making up, breaking up, in fact this programme has everything! The Hills is actually a spin-off television series from the very popular show, Laguna Beach. This show followed a bunch of high school students through their life in Laguna Beach, California, a very affluent, beautiful area right on the coast of Southern California. One of the main characters was Lauren Conrad, often referred to as LC. She, in my opinion is quite a pretty, nice mannered girl, if somewhat spoilt. She has the clothes, looks, long blond hair and drives a very nice convertible car. I do like her and I think she is quite entertaining. She often seems to have a rough ride where some of her friends are concerned but that is life, and more importantly that is life...

Review of The Hills - Series 1 (DVD)

one tree hill is the best

Advantages: the best series
Disadvantages: have to wait for season 5

...mothers are about to raise Tree Hill's population. Lucas begins to wonder what really happened the day Keith died, which lead to a shock revelation in tree hill. The Tree Hill Ravens led by Coach Whitey Durham have one last chance for hoops glory and the state championship. This has a great soundtrack and as for the theme tunes which too is great and sung by Gavin Degraw called I don't want to be. This is not to be missed it on channel 4, but if you want to catch it earlier it get released on E4 a few months earlier. Either that or the best opion is buy the box set for around £40 and you have a one tree hill marathon now what could be better....
