One Tree Hill “There are always stereotypes in high school. People are placed into groups. You’re a jock, you’re a cheerleader, you’re a freak, you’re into the drama department. I had a lot of trouble fitting into those groups when I was in high school because I wanted to be a part of all of them. One Tree Hill represents people who are multidimensional and who like more than one thing.” Hilarie Burton, who plays Peyton Sawyer, says it perfectly herself.

Heroes: Grappling With Power With the proliferation of supernatural television shows and movies, I expected Heroes to be more of the same. It is not. Heroes offers a unique twist on the classic superhero tale through its wide variety of characters, its concise plot, its special effects, and its wise use of tone. Mohinder Suresh, who functions as the series’ narrator, teaches genetic theory in a small, stuffy classroom to bored college students in India. As the class ends, a colleague pulls Mohinder

Throughout the show, Nathan Scott makes many different mistakes but he gets to know other characters that help him to grow from the person he once was. Even though he was once self-conceited

Going to the park always gave Rick Castle a chance to think while he watched Alexis play. The first times he would come with her, he didn't part from her not for a second, not wanting to miss the any of the fun- and maybe to keep an eye on her too-. However, recently she had started to demand more independence, stating it was silly for her to play with other kids if her father was following her too. It was a bittersweet feeling for him, admiring his kid,but also knowing the little things that marked
