One Tree Hill: Replacing Lucas and Peyton

How is One Tree Hill going to explain Lucas and Peyton’s sudden absence from the coming season now that stars Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton aren’t returning?

This burning question is eating away at One Tree Hill fans.

The answer from the producers? Damned if we know!

A show rep suggests that it will involve a bit of rebooting” “Obviously, we have new stories to tell, but at the same time, this season really feels like classic One Tree Hill.”

How is that going to work, exactly? “Some characters might be in an episode for just one scene, but it’s a scene that serves the story and the serialized nature of our season.”

So basically, they haven’t figured it out yet.
