Amazon.co.uk Review
The third season of the small town soap begins with the blaze that ended the second ("Like You Like an Arsonist"). Dan (played by Paul Johannson) makes it out alive, but vows to seek vengeance on the perpetrator -- even if that person happens to be estranged son Lucas (Chad Michael Murray). In the following episode ("From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea"), Dan's preferred offspring returns to Tree Hill. Will Nathan (James Lafferty) and his wife Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) reconcile? It is her deepest desire, but Nathan has his doubts. Further changes are afoot. Haley and Brooke (Sophia Bush), for instance, move in together...which wouldn't seem so strange if they were in college rather than high school. Brooke and Lucas also try a "non-exclusive" arrangement (her idea, not his). When sexy schemer Rachel (Danneel Harris) joins the cheerleading squad, Brooke starts to regret her decision. Meanwhile, the delightfully odious Dan runs for mayor. Just when he thinks he's got it locked, Lucas’s mother, Karen (Moira Kelly), throws her hat in the ring. But those developments are minor compared to the school shooting in episode 16 ("With Tired Eyes, Tired Minds, Tired Souls, We Slept").

Guest stars include Nada Surf ("Return of the Future") and season two favourites Fall Out Boy ("An Attempt to Tip the Scales"), while recurring characters include Peyton's birth mother Ellie (Sheryl Lee, who was Laura Palmer in Twin Peaks), and smug singer/songwriter Chris (Tyler Hilton, who plays Elvis Presley in Walk The Line), with whom Haley collaborates again. As in the previous year, the finale ("The Show Must Go On") is a cliffhanger. Special features include commentary, deleted scenes, and a featurette about the making of "With Tired Eyes." --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Synopsis
ONE TREE HILL follows the story of two estranged half-brothers, Lucas Scott (Chad Michael Murray, DAWSON'S CREEK) and Nathan Scott (James Lafferty) who lead very different lives in a small North Carolina town. Series three finds the gang in their senior year--a significant turning point in any teenager's life. Dan's out for revenge, Haley fights to save her marriage, Peyton comes to terms with her birth mother, and tragedy strikes Tree Hill High. Suddenly, who wins the cheerleading tournament doesn't seem quite so important.

Customer Reviews

fairly entertaining but dragged down by Dan and all the negative stuff that surrounds him
The episodes of this series are fairly entertaining but the antics between Dan and everyone who hates him are getting a bit repetitive ( I find that the episodes I like best are the ones where Dan is seen least) and Hayley and Nathan's hot-cold marriage has become as bland as the music playing in Peyton's club.The most believable and memorable scenes were between Peyton and her birth mother, Ellie.I was hoping to see more basketball action in this season but there wasn't much really.
The rivalry between Brook and Rachel made for good viewing and helped sustain my interest.

Wow
This series is the single best series of any drama I've ever seen. I loved One Tree Hill from the first episode, and it has just got better and better since then.
This series is packed with so many brilliant stories- wonderfully written and acted. There are twists when least expected and the show is gripping the whole way through.
Episode 3.16 was excellent, extremely unexpected and great writing- it left me gobsmacked. However I think the best episode of the season- of all the seasons is episode 3.13, "The Wind That Blew My Heart Away" I felt that the episode really brought the viewer in and I felt as though I could feel every emotion the characters were feeling, and it even had me crying.

The series is brilliant. I recommend you buy all the One Tree Hill series so you can watch them from the beginning, but this one is by far the best.

My god this is amazing..
Season three is a phenomonal season for OTH. It strats of a bit slow, but soon kicks in, to the hormones that is their senior year. Everyone changes and grows us this season. Episode 3.16 leaves you flabbergasted to what has happened.

The reason why this season is so good that it plays on true emotions of characters and shows it like it is. Best seaso finale that leaves you hanggi till the gripping season that is season 4.
