Next week on “One Tree Hill“, Nathan tries to help Haley and Jamie confront Lydia’s (guest star Bess Armstrong) seemingly hopeless situation. Brooke and Julian navigate their volatile relationship in the midst of a hectic movie shoot.
Meanwhile, Clay and Quinn spend some time apart, and Miranda (guest star India de Beaufort) tries to prove to Grubbs (guest star Michael Grubbs of the band Wakey!Wakey!) that she’s the right person to produce his album.
“At the Bottom of Everything” will air on Monday, February 15. Bethany Joy Galeotti who plays Haley directs the episode and this is the second time around she has taken the job behind the lens. Back in season 6, she directed the episode “Screenwriter’s Blues”. Her co-stars Sophia Bush and James Lafferty have also experienced directing the show’s episodes.
After watching Monday’s One Tree Hill episode, it looks like Julian and Brooke will remain as friends for quite some time. While the transition from lovers to friends is difficult, the friendship thing seems to be working for them. The question is: Are Brooke and Julian really over?
If you’re worried about Brooke and Julian’s future, then this little piece of news should cheer you up. According to Eonline.com, “despite this rough patch, Brooke and Julian will be back together before the end of the season.”
So what happens to Alex then? Well, her declaration in last week’s episode that she’s done chasing Julian in spite of still being in love with him may be an indication that she won’t be stirring up trouble for Brooke and Julian. However, “she’s going to have some problems of her own coming down the pike–problems that have nothing to do with Brooke and Julian. She’s going to have the very trendy problem of a sex tape leak! Yep, apparently, there’s naked footage of her and her costar in the movie they are making, and it goes public. Scandal!”
Are you happy to learn that Brooke and Julian will soon rekindle their romance? Or do you want them to break up for good? And what do you think of Alex’s scandal?

Just like Heroes, the dead never really stays dead on One Tree Hill. The only difference is that on Tree Hill, dead people come back in flashbacks or possibly as ghosts. OK so maybe not as ghosts but someone dead does return this season and, according to Fancast.com, the
cast and crew’s lips are zipped as to how this person will resurface.
I am of course referring to Clay’s dead wife Sara, who is portrayed by Amanda Schull, the actress best known for her role in the movie Center Stage. Last time we saw Sara was in the episode “I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight” in which Clay struggled to deal with his mourning issues.
If you’ve been following One Tree Hill season 7, then you’re well aware that Clay has since found love again in Quinn, Haley’s sister, after being depressed for a long time. How will Sara’s return affect Clay and Quinn’s budding romance? Will Sara haunt Clay as a ghost or will she be featured in a flashback scene? And more importantly, why is she returning on the show?
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1 “One Tree Hill” – (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) “Don’t You Forget About Me”
AN HOMAGE TO THE LATE DIRECTOR JOHN HUGHES -In the chaos surrounding an `80’s alumni dance at the high school, Haley’s (Bethany Joy Galeotti) birthday is forgotten, Jamie (Jackson Brundage) is left home alone, and Nathan (James Lafferty) and Clay (Robert Buckley) are stranded 200 miles from Tree Hill. Meanwhile, Brooke’s (Sophia Bush) appearance at the dance with Alexander (guest star Mitch Ryan) forces Julian (Austin Nichols) to relive his dorky adolescence in an episode dedicated to the memory of John Hughes. Shantel VanSanten, Lee Norris, and Lisa Goldstein also star. Les Butler directed the episode written by Terrence Coli (#715).
Before “One Tree Hill” is back on screen after a Winter hiatus, The CW releases a sneak peek clip to reveal how some things are still not resolved. The clip focuses on Brooke and Julian trying to save their relationship after a 6-week break but things are not easy when they talk about Alex and Alexander.
The last time the couple was seen together was in the Fall episode where Brooke struggled to accept Julian’s reaction when Alex underwent another crisis. Alex attempted suicide when Julian refused to come for her during a meltdown. And during the same time, Brooke got closer to Alexander, a former surfer who switches career to a young mogul.
When the show returns on January 18, a post-rehab Alex tries to make amends with herself and the people she’s let down. Also, the Scott family joins Haley on the last leg of her tour and Clay and Quinn try to figure out how to move forward after his public declaration of love.
One Tree Hill’s Skills and Bevin once wept over The Notebook, and now Haley’s portrayer Bethany Joy Galeotti, has been inspired to write a musical based on the 1996 Nicholas Sparks novel. The tear-jerking story, which has later adapted into a popular romance film starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in 2004, is about an elderly man reading a love story from his notebook to a female fellow patient who has lost her memory. However, the movie and the book have very different endings.
On a recent One Tree Hill podcast, Bethany Joy Galeotti found herself making up songs about the characters of The Notebook after seeing the movie based on the book. When she started writing them down, she said, “I thought, this is either going to be terrible, or it’s going to be great. I don’t know which it’s going to be, but I’ve gotta get this out.”
According to MTV,
Bethany, who is working with record producer Ron Aniello, was able to get author Sparks’ approval through a mutual friend — and she’s now tested her work for Broadway producers and investors.
“[The producers] all said the music was amazing — ‘Don’t touch it, we love the music’ — which is just so, so encouraging for Ron and I because we worked really hard on that music … I was just super, super excited to get all this great feedback from people who really know what they’re doing, because I don’t. This is my first time venturing into this side of the theater world. It’s been an inspiring and intimidating and fun and exhausting and wonderful, wonderful journey that is not even close to over yet … It’s an amazingly emotional and moving story and I really hope we do it justice,” she said.
Catch Bethany Joy Galeotti on One Tree Hill when the series returns with all-new episodes beginning January 18.
