Chosen (2013)
Riveting - Stays With You!
I do not typically enjoy thrillers. I was drawn to this because I am a Chad Michael Murray fan and he did not disappoint. He plays a much different role than he did in One Tree Hill but I thought he really pulled it off and still showed as a "good hero character" - just with much more edge.
I really liked the chemistry between him and Sarah Roemer and I was really drawn to see where the story would take him. I found the character study of what happens to someone in a situation like this fascinating. And - the Season 3 ending - wow - moving and sad - I've never seen such a "peaceful" murder.
Note - for the Cinderella Story / One Tree Hill set - this is definitely not a family friendly show - the sex scene is much more realistic and the violence is hard to watch, esp. late at night. Also - watching the show with the ads on Crackle is kind of annoying - but worth it. I kind of want to see a Season 4 if it ever comes out but I also liked how they ended Season 3 - might be good to just to leave it where it is.
One Tree Hill (2003)
My New Favorite Show!
I somehow missed this show when it first came out because I was obsessed with Grey's Anatomy, don't really watch the WB/CB, and don't watch much TV at all - but I have become obsessed with this show since discovering it on Netflix.
I love the brother dynamic that develops between Lucas and Nathan, the friendships that develop between the female characters, the romance between Lucas and Peyton (possibly my favorite ever between characters). Each season seems to have a different flavor - and a different hairstyle for Lucas - Chad Michael Murray plays a good guy throughout but with some a variety of emotions and style - from young teen to young adult.
I could see watching this show over and over again, esp. Seasons 1-6!
