November 13th, 2017 - It was announced via Hilarie Burton's twitter account that she left the show after six seasons because of sexual and emotional abuse from the series creator Mark Schwahn. It was also revealed that's why she never came back for the final season.
Music was such a huge part of the show that the fictional club Tric was written into the show in Season 2 so the writers could feature more bands and artists.
Chad Michael Murray was the first actor to be cast in the show, though creator Mark Schwahn originally wanted him to play Nathan, having seen him in bad guy roles before. But Murray himself wanted to play Lucas, because he felt that the character had a back story he could connect more to, since he also experienced being abandoned as a child.
