Robert Buckley Replaces Chad Michael Murray

Robert Buckley Replaces Chad Michael Murray

Former Lipstick Jungle hunk Robert Buckley will replace recently ousted Chad Michael Murray in the CW series One Tree Hill.

According to THR, Buckley will play Clayton, a brash young sports agent who represents Nathan Scott (James Lafferty) and has become a close friend, ally, business partner and advisor to him while also enjoying the spoils that come from being a wealthy, handsome single guy.

Buckley filled in for Brian Austin Green, whose deal for the role fell through.

yay that is awesome news. He is hot. I am thrilled Murray is gone and that Burton too. Good riddance to them both. I can’t wait to hear what female actors are joining the cast.

Yes!!
I LOVE Robert!!!! He is sooooooo hott.

.love it ! robert is so hot

Yummy. I want him on my screen hope he plays a bad boy.

better choice than Brian

dude no one can replace chad he’s too hott

Giblets are the two bodies that !!!!!!!!!!

He can never replace Chad, sorry.

Please, I can think of like fifty guys just off the top of my head who can replace Chad easily. And these people can actually act too unlike him. And I’m glad Robert is coming to OTH. He’s a good actor from what I’ve seen.

I am so NOT watching the show next season.

I don’t think BAG would want this role especially since he gets paid more than Murray and has a long history. Maybe they will resurrect terminator on the scifi channel

he is hot! better choice than Brian A Green.

I’m sorry but the CW trying to replace CMM with another pretty face isn’t going ot bring you more ratings!

Ummmm this network is full of themselves. First they try to get BAG on One Tree Hill and were going to pay him the same amount as CMM…I thought this network had no money or was low on it? This network SUCKS. Dawn sure knows how to run her company straight into the dump bc that’s where it’s heading. She just doesn’t know when its time to let go of a show. Like smallville, One Tree Hill, and I heard that she wants to keep Supernatural running longer than the creator wants too, let not forget she brought back 7th heaven and canceled Everwood….It still baffles me that Dawn can thinks she can replace Chad with a pretty face and that’s going to do the show justice…ummm DAWN OSTROFF F.A.I.L.

Thought I wasn’t gonna see it But I think I will now.. Love Robert Buckley, he’s a cutie and way better choice than BAG.

lol no one can replace Chad.. Its his show

Last time I check you don’t bring in ratings because you have hott people, you get good ratings with the story you are trying to sell to the audience. No main charater aka Lucas no story to sell. Wasn’t this story/show based on Lucas/Nathan/Dan, well mostly Lucas Scott? I thought that was Mark’s vision. Sheeesh Mark what happend to artistic integrity? One Tree Hill shouldn’t be called One Tree Hill anymore, it’s being taken over by characters who did NOT get OTH to a 7th season. The reason why OTH has fans was because of Chad/James/Hilarie/Sophia/Joy. You know the main five. The one who created these characters we all love and hate at the same time. Now they talk aout reinvention? WTF, are you kidding me this is not ER, Law and Order…This show can’t survive with two of the most love/hated characters gone, no matter how many pretty people they try to bring in, OTH will never be the same E.V.ER.

that guy looks like he has to take a shitt. The show is Chads show, they might as well change the name to One Gay Hill.

everyone is used to chad thats why its hard to replace him, but he overacts everything and was getting kind of annoying towards the end. he and peyton were set and that storyline was going nowhere so they were expendable.

as for rob, i watched him in lipstick jungle and he is amazing. theyre both too pretty to be serious actors, but rob is much more believable than chad

One Tree Hill is NOT Chads show and hasn’t been one for a very long time. It baffles me when some morons keep on saying its his show. Some of you are his fans….I get it. But the fact is that this show started off as being one about two brothers who are enemies but eventually become friends. This show was always about the core five…..not just one person alone. And with CMM no longer wanting to be a part of the show, he decided season 6 would be his last. So now if the network wants to bring fresh faces to the show, then let them. If some people don’t want to watch, then don’t. NO ONE is forcing you to do so. So STOP whining.
And Robert is damn fine. So its great he’ll be a part of the show from now on.

UPGRADE!

I am soo looking forward to next season now :)

Yes your right^ it is about the core five, but who are they again because there hasn’t been a core five in the last seasons? I get they want fresh faces but still Nathan’s dream is set that storyline can’t go nowhere….Brooke what the hell can she do besides Julian..and really I guess this is the season where Mark HAS to give Haley a storyline because well who else…Jamie.Milli.Mouth.Mia. Chase Haley’s sister.This guy who is going to be playing yet again another boring coach to Nathans dream take 456489465146518974. There’s no Dan, no skillz, no Lucas nor Peyton..This show has gone off its rocker.

lol this is hilarious.

You cant replace the main character of the show, it just doesn’t work. Season 7 is going to be a major fail. I wouldn’t be surprised if it got canceled.

Haha, hotter man replacement

I like OTH. Chad is a douchey diva and I am glad he is gone. Robert is hot and charming and a nice guy. I can’t wait for season 7 this show has lots of fans who will be watching regardless of new cast members. The two divas are off the show thank god.

Sorry but nobody can replace Chad (Or anyone from the original cast). The core 5 is what makes the show and now with 2 of them gone plus Dan and Skills, i don’t see the show lasting.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I WILL DEFINITELY BE WATCHING!!!!!
I swear, the news regarding OTH just keeps on getting better and better.

I agree OTH has gotten better and better. I have a feeling the new cast members are gonna rock!

celebrityobsessed. @ 06/11/2009 at 7:57 pm

:O

Robert is YUM.

Oh great another secondary character sucking up screetime.

Seriously we have enough pointless characters already, we dont need anymore.

SEASON 7 IS GOING TO SUCK!!!!!!

Hes not really replacing Chad. Hes just playing another pointless character.

Heh, so what another hot/eyecandy guy???That’s not going to make this show any better. FYI no one can ever replace Chad because know one will ever be Lucas Scott, duh people I mean Jared…get your facts straight :P

RB will be a series regular not a guest star. So he won’t be pointless. This season will be exciting with 3 new regulars.

No one cares about Chad he is DUNZO.

OHHHH YEAHHHH because season 7 is looking so much better now that two of the main people, you know the reason why many started watching OTH is gone…..OH BOY WE GET THESE NEW SCENE SUCKERS I MEAN FRESH FACES WHO ARE GORGEOUS….OTH has some real promise next season with what Haley’s sister being a smoker and Nathan’s dream at NBA, Brookes new BFF, que Nathan’s brother/ of wait he’s gone, but it’s okay because look at how hott these fresh faces are it won’t matter if the story sucks because we get to drool over these guys for 40 min. yep season 7 looks effing good now.! lather, rinse, repeat, lather, rinse, repeat…..give me a break! JJ no one is replacing Chad and thank gosh he did leave..have you read the new sides at showfax to this show…?!

@Heather:

Mouth, Mill
ie, Mia, Jamie, are all serious regulars and they are pointless. Whoever RB is playing will be pointless too.

Do we really need all these secondary characters?? How about we stick to the main characters and actually give Haley a storyline for once.

LMAO how can this show replace CMM..oh wait they can’t. I can’t believe people watch a show just becasue an actor is pretty, hott, or whatever… wtf? televsion is not suppose to be how pretty one is but about the beauty of the story and how one can relate to it… quite frankly OTH lost that a long time ago when they try to put in psycho stalkers, murders, torturing people (dan/nanny), drug heads (Rachel,Deb) lets not forget psycho nanny…..Honeslty, how many people can say they watch this show because it is great and not for the people who are in it? I mean if your favorite character left you would be out with them, wouldn’t you?

ew they are just replacing a good actor with one that is pretty and that girls will keep watching the show for. gag me! CMM will do better things than the soap opera he used to be on. plus it’ll give sophia bush another f-buddy. that would make it four guys on the show shes slept with!!

lmao at you jerks trying to divert critisism away from the douche Chad. This guy is good actor and good person. So long to Chad . Mrs. Phelps got her feathers ruffled and she is bringing Sophia into this. Sophia rocks I am happy we will get to see Sophia, Joy and James every week.

Chad is a whorebag, whorebag, whorebag.

Robert is hot, woot. I hope we get pics soon of filming.

sofeee is a douchebag

He is cute.

I can see how next season will go… REALLY high ratings the first few eppis and then they will drop.

IMO no one can replace chad.

OH and BTW this is the first time I have been in this post so please don’t go blaming what others say on me. if i post on here i do it under my name. if its under Cali then it is not me. thanks

Chad is fcking everyone in LA and little preggers Kenzie is crying lol

I see the crazies are out! Speaking of those hot guys I’d love to roll around them anytime. Robert looks adorable. i haven’t seen Lipstick Jungle but he looks like a fine addition.

^^kenzie is not preggers

This guy may be hott and a good actor but he is NOT replacing Chad…How can they replace a main character LOL. I am happy that chad walked away from this show. Just because Chad walked away does not make him a bad person. I can’t believe some people are one minded and think that way. Some of you guys still hold stuff against him for whatever reason, you all act like he did something bad to ya’ll ummmm NO. Chad makes mistakes and some critize him and belittle him. He is after all human and no one is perfect. The way some can just sit there and say nasty things about him says alot about who you are as a person. I wish Robert luck, I am sure he will do good in OTH.

UMM WOW….it’s crazy in here. Swear you fans act your shoe size and not your age. That being said, no one can ever replace Chad because there will never be another Lucas Scott. Of course this guy will be fresh to the OTH fanbase he is after all new.

anonymous @ 06/11/2009 at 9:48 pm

The Brooke/Sophia stans are already plotting a romantic union between him and her.

So pumped for the new season!! Robert is HOT!!!=) Love Chad and Hilarie but if Chad wanted to leave because he wanted to “act in movies” or get paid more and they can’t bring back Peyton without Lucas-apparently- well that sucks but oh well!! love the show, loved it since the beginning, it going to be different but James Lafferty is still on the show and he is my favorite!!!! Should be a good season…Hate to say that it will probably be the final season just because I don’t think there is a lot they can do with the show but whatever I am excited=) Yeah OTH I like the new actor, bring a new actress, he needs a love interest?!

@anonymous:
Are you a f*ckin idiot you NO-LIFE PRICK???????
What the f*ck is your deal??
Do you really think that by making those f*cked up comments about her is gonna impress anyone???
F*CK NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
If anything, it makes YOU look like a crazy, f*cked up psychotic, obsessed FREAK. You’ve made like five of those nasty comments already. Do you really not have anythng better to do with your f*ckin life than to be a hateful f*cked up b*tch???
GET A LIFE B*TCH.
DO SOMETHING BETTER WITH YOUR MISERABLE OLD LIFE AND STOP BEING A HATEFUL PRICK.
YOU PATHETIC LAUGHABLE PIECE OF SH*t.
And the next time you wanna post something so stupid, why don’t you grow some balls and leave your REAL name and email address so people here can tell you how STUPID you really are instead of being a scared little douche bag and calling yourself “anonymous.”
You think you’re real big and tough spouting off sh*t on the internet where no one can twist your neck and tell you to shutup.
I wasn’t gonna say anything but enough is enough. This isn’t the first time on JJ I’ve seen you talk like a piece of sh*t and it shows me what a f*cked up idiot you really are.

Did it ever occur to you that multiple people use “anonymous” as a username. You are deranged. Get help please and GTFO.

Buckley is gorgeous.

Fyl Chad CHOSE to leave the show!!! Of course he would say that he got told to leave because they wanted to save money but if you believe that you’re kind of an idiot…Why would OTH fire Chad and hire someone else?! Anyone who says Sophia can shut it because they broke up in season 3 and they continued to work together!! There relationship has NOTHING to do with the show anymore!! They are mature about it, maybe the viewers can be too!!

Chad wanted to leave, he wanted to act in movies, he felt like he had done everything he could on OTH, he figured it would be the last season however it wasn’t but he CHOSE to leave!! He was not fired, they did refuse to pay him more money but w.e all in all Chad chose to leave the show..

And they couldn’t have Chad leave and keep Hilarie around, why because well Lucas without Peyton is impossible and can’t be done-i mean sure they could have killed Chad but I am sure that would have pissed a lot more people off…So since Chad wanted to leave it was time for Hilarie to leave too…

It sucks they are leaving but this isn’t CHAD show!! Sure this show started off as a boy trying to fit in and discover himself aka Lucas but the show has grown so much more and has become more about other characters and no not just the core five, don’t forget about Mouth, Skills, the parents, etc- This show may have started off about Lucas but it is not CHAD show..

I am a die hard fan and I love this show and I will not stop watching or boycott because Chad DECIDED to leave the show. I will continue to watch because I personally love the show and I think Robert will bring a lot of spice to the show… and P.S> IT A TV SHOW!!! IT NOT REAL GET OVER IT!!

Did any of you guys watch Lipstick Jungle?? If not, watch it online. Robert is hot, hot, HOT!!!

I never though I’d say this, but:
Losing Chad + Adding Robert = UPGRADE

@anonymous:
Nice try you idiot. I have to agree with Demi about her post.
This “anonymous” person is the same person. Its doesn’t exactly take a genius to figure that out, especially since this persons comments are always almost exactly the same. Someone needs to take that loser to a shrink or something because the person clearly needs help……and fast.

ROBERT IS A DEFINITE UPGRADE.
I’m excited as hell for the new season.

DOWNGRADE…………..

Does that mean every “anonymous” person is the same poster? LMAO. No YOU are a total idiot. I am anonymous but that doesn’t mean I made every “anonymous” post here. Demi is deranged and her post is incoherent I am amazed you were able to read it.

you cannot replace a main character with a secondary character. CW are idiots

LOL.
Its kind of pretty funny to see this “anonymous person” try and convince everyone that he or she(most likely a she) isn’t insane. Like the others have said, its actually kind of obvious that those comments made by “anonymous” was the same persn because they practically said the same thing.
And this coming from an English major in college—I was able to perfectly read Demi’s comment(even though it contained a lot of swear words….not that I blame her though) and to me, it made perfect sense and I was able to understand exactly what she was trying to say. So if anyone had trouble understanding it, I suggest that you start paying more attention in English.
Any ways, I just came to here to say that Robert Buckley is hott. I’ve seen some of his work before and he’s really good so he’ll be a nice addition to OTH.

Yes, Chad CHOSE to leave the show, and yet people belittle him for it? Honesly, if Chad had stayed with this show for another year, I would have been disappointed in him because his heart is not in it anymore and all of us know that and if HE would have stayed it would have THEN been for the money and not because he is doing something he loves. Chad did right by walking away and in my opinion as a viewer of the show there is really nothing left to tell. They way season 6 ended wrapped up everything pretty great, although I think Mark did that because he knows season 7 will be totally different. Still, people are going to talk about Chad regardless of why he left, we honeslty can’t say that he left based soley on money, if so please post proof of this. Anyways. the whole debicle with CH departeture was handled poorly by both parties. Yes, that includes the network too. When I read Ostroff interview regarding CH departure I could not belive this woman runs a network…she sounded petty and just nooo….Anyways I love Chad and I thank him for the 6 years he gave and the charity events he did with it…. and this guy is no way a replacement for him because A) you can’t replace a main character with a secondary one sheeeesh….

@Kayla:

totally agree with what you said…..

oops i meant in my first post if its NOT under Cali its not me. sorry

anyways i hate how people bash him for leaving. if he had stayed he would have been bashed as well. i’m glad he can get away from a lot of these ‘fans’. its not fair to hate someone for quitting a job and complain because he is on the show.

Yes!!! I was waiting for something like that!!! He is H O T

next season will have lots of new stories to tell. I heard there will be a one year time jump so they’ll be able to explain the lost cast members. I saw that vid that was put on the web where Chad was asking fans to blog so he could keep his job. Both Chad and Hilarie played chicken with the CW for money. We all can see how that turned out.

YAY! Now i might start watching this show. Robert Buckley is so damn hawt! Robert Buckley > CMM (by a million times)

Robert is so damn hawt! I’m watching for sure.

@Jill: i have have seen the vid and i’m not too sure whats up with that but chad has wanted to leave since s4. i really dont think that he would have re-signed for more money. he turned down over a million with no movies lined up (that we know of) so i really dont think it was for money. chad left because he did not like it. i dont see the crime but thats just me.
i for one will not be watching

adding a hot actor is NOT going to save the show.

The show is done and has been for a long time. They should have ended it in season 4.

Do we really need another season filled with pointless characters and recycled storylines?

He was on Privledged with current girlfriend Joanna Garcia. I wonder if they got canceled? I’m sure they’ll put their characters together somehow. On other sites “fans” are already using the phrase “How long before Sophia jumps on this one?” for certain topics. She’s pretty, single and ready to mingle with other single guys. Whats the harm? Let the girl have some fun! I’m sure this will be the last year of OTH. Hope its a decent season.

Cali give it a rest. same old same old with you.
Good luck to OTH and the cast members who have left.

Alot of new stories to tell my ass…if they do another time jump it will be like what year 2013 or whatever year it is in TH..???Yeah OTH timeline makes no sense just like the stories they are going to TRY to sell…This guy is hott but not hot enough to endure the 40 min. of boring that is going to be playing…

Never heard of this Robert dude? All I know is that he can never replace Chad.

@Ali: lol that was not me. i dont get whats ’same old same old’ or why i need to ‘give it a rest’ i have not been rude rude or bashed once.

Regardless if Chad stayed he would have been hated on just like he is hated on for leaving this damn show…Chad haters will always doubt and try to put down..When an article appears on him, they go and say negative things and think the worst as always…it’s there first reaction that is why they are callled HATERS. Also, it is soooooooooooooo tiring to read the same **** over and over again regarding him and Sophia…that was a long time ago..Maybe some should follow in the people they look up to meaning Chad/Sophia and follow there footsteps and be polite, but I guess that’s too much to ask for? Chads reason for leaving are justified for me. I don’t need any damn excuse as to why he made that desicion. It’s his life obviously he knows whats best for him and I do not question it. You come on here to read about people you like and all you see is negative things sometimes, and it’s just a shame that people really stoop that low and say nasty things when they do not personally know Chad at all.

Actually plenty of people who do know Chad personally don’t exactly have nice things to say about him either. Buts thats all I’m going to say on the matter because it’ll just open up another can of worms.
Moving on, next season should be interesting. Looks like a lot of things will be changing so lets see what happens.

Thank you^, the same Chad vs. Sophia thing is so old. If Chad and Sophia can let it go, why can’t there fans do the same? I agree Ash, Chad did what was best for him and that enough for me as a fan. I personally want to see him do something he is passionate about and if that meant leaving OTH then so be it.. Chad has done many good things with this show and has been to many of the charity events and tv shows to promote the seasons but many people don’t comment on the good he has done instead they focus on the negative…it’s ridiculous. Chad did what every good actor would have done, he brought his game in the last epis. he had left, when fans came and visited Wilmy in his last week or two he was there ALWAYS signing and taking picture with fans..You can see how much he truly cares about his fans. He did everything he could possibly do, I am proud of him. He walked away from something he could have easily more or less done again meaning season 7 but he felt it was his time to go…and for that I am happy he did.

Personally, I don’t give a crap what Chad does in his spare time. If people who know him personally don’t have nice things to say about him, then why are they still talking to him? Obviously they are being hypocritical. All I DO care about is what Chad brings to the table. If he is committed, passionate, and loving what he is doing meaning his job as an actor then THAT is what matters…All that outside stuff that gets tossed around in these conversations are pointless…Everyone who claims they have sources and know people who claim to know things on Chad is dumb. It’s the internet anyone can claim they know somebody who knows something about Chad or any other cast member. It’s quiet disturbing, do they not have a life of there own in which they have to then find out personal stuff about an actor or actress, like really are you serious?

Great.
I HATE Chad. So its a relief I won’t have to see him on the show next season.
And judging by what I’ve heard and seen about Robert Buckley, it looks like he’s definitely going to bring something refreshing to the show.

@Shawn:
I don’t want to stir anything up but the reason that people focus on the negative stuff about Chad more than the positive is because he’s given reason to over and over again.
Yes, he’s been nice to his fans lately, especially in the last two seasons. And although you and others may have had really nice experiences when meeting him, they’re are plenty of people including myself who haven’t. Normally I would just chalk it up to him having a bad day, but lets just say he wasn’t so nice the times I’ve met him. And the same goes for my friends and other people I know who’ve met him too.
All I’m saying is that if you’ve had a good experience with him , then don’t make it seem as if everyone who’s ever met him has had nice encounters with him as well. I hate when people basically jump down someones throat just because they see some people saying stuff they don’t like and basically sit there and say how nice or whatever that person is. You don’t these actors personally, so unless you hang out with them all day long doesn’t mean they’re nice all day, everyday to other people.

loved him in lipstick jungle its a not so bad replacement i’ve always just out up with chad he got annoying but noone can replace peyton thats the real loss!!! They need to bring back Rachel(daneel harris) i’ve always wanted to know where she is and she can be the friend to brooke because hayleys always stayed absorbed in her own litlle family so she can’t.

btw why the fck would anyone want brian austin green in oth hes so lame i mean they stooped low wiht nick lachey but seriously.

@Heather:

“Actually plenty of people who do know Chad personally don’t exactly have nice things to say about him either.”

your kidding right?? please go watch/read some of Hilarie and Joys interviews. They always say how great Chad is. Joy even refers to Chad has her little brother.

@Jesse:

“You don’t these actors personally, so unless you hang out with them all day long doesn’t mean they’re nice all day, everyday to other people.”

Of course they are not nice everyday. They are humans. They have emotions just like the rest of us. Let me ask you a question, Are you nice all day, everyday??

this is bull f***ing shitt……… yeh sure Robs hot but who cares
He cant act for **** in lip stick jungle all he does if F*** which is what the CW is doing

Lucas Scott is the meredith of greys anatomy HIS THE F***IN glue that sticks everyone together for christs sake

i mean come on can anyone really be stuffed watching this show no, seriously its too cheezy and corney now………… i want the oth actors (brilliant) to movvvvvvvvvve the F*** on i mean 6 years is a long run

This show is gonna bomb now, i can no longer talk it up to my friends coz its just lame……….

oh and james lucas scott is the most cliched character that their trying to make perfect (athlete, smart witty) come on how many people know little boys like that……. It was okay in season 5 but season 6 i had too skip his lines cause their so blaaaaaah

Peace Out

Chad. Chad. Chad.
even if the other guy is hot.

I enjoyed One Tree Hill until this last season. Chad was just phoning in the part. He just used this show to form his own private harem and now all the girls are on to him What happened did his head get bigger than the part? Not like he’ll be going on to bigger things, He should have rode this train to the station. Good bye Chad. Next we will see him on where are they noiw.

@kj: I agree about Brian Austin Green Isn’t he close to forty?

very nice upgrade OTH/CW very nice.

Come on, are you serious? Some of you really believe that the show will fail without Chad and Hilarie? We don’t know anything yet, at least watch the first couple of episodes and then decide if it’s bad or not. Look at show like ER, the show was on forever and there were always new charathers that replaced the old. The show didn’t get low ratings or went bad because of that.

@Jesse:

I honestly don’t know what reason Chad has given time and time again to dislike him that somehow involves us jumping down his ass. Please don’t say the Sophia issue and other outside stuff that is his personal life because that basically is none of our business. Of course I don’t know them personally, and I am sure Chad is human. If you did not have a nice encounter then I am sorry, but that doesn’t mean he is like that. The same could be said for every Cast member, you think they are nice all the damn time??? For example, take Sophia, at the last charity game the Brooke/Lucas fans gave her a present and she signed it with Lucas/Peyton or something to that effect ummm some where not happy at all… Also, have you looked over this page? People jump down other’s people’s throat if Sophia is brought up in here in a negative way. Besides your basically jumping down my throat because I said Chad has done nice things and so on…? Whatever I’m out.

The show- DOWNGRADE
Robert Buckley- NETRUAL. He is just another pretty face, so what that’s nothing exciting. It’s laughable that the CW/OTH are trying to get people like BAG or in this case Robert B. onto the show, can you desperate much? Are they trying to buy the audience with hott guys? Last time I checked that doesn’t bring up your ratings, stupid CW/OTH.

Ally are you serious? You compared OTH to ER? That is like laughable. First of all, ER was way more popular and actually had good writers, so it did not matter that main cast members left. OTH is nothing like ER. When Dawn said that in her interview I died laughing, and the funny thing is she actually believes that OTH can do good without your MAIN character on this show which like I said it’s nothing like ER. With ER you could come up with so many stories because there was so much to tell unlike OTH which is based on these five character lives and has run out of ideas because the writers are just repeating storylines…ZZZZZZZZ.

FINALLY A REASON TO WATCH ONE TREE HIL!

@Lo:
Don’t jump down her throat just because you don’t agree with what she said. I agree that OTH is nothing like ER. And of course ER was a more popular show. She wasn’t comparing the two shows…..just saying that ER had been on the air for years with a million characters coming and going. Yet, it still managed to stay on for a very long time. And just because two of the core five on OTH are leaving doesn’t mean the rest of them on the show should just pack there crapp and go because one of them(Chad) no longer wanted to be on the show. All I’m saying is that if he wanted to leave, then who cares? Some people are acting like the shows producers and the network told him to pack his bags when thats not true because he wanted to leave. His decision also caued Hilarie to say good-bye. So just because he wanted to leave doesn’t mean the show is “over.” This show hasn’t been about Lucas Scott in a long time so its not a big deal.
And maybe these new characters and new storylines might actually end up working and new people tuning in might like them. So who knows? Its still too early to say that season 7 is going to pass or fail.

Season 7 is going to fail this is common knowledge, and I definitely won’t be tuning in. Dawn, One Tree Hill, and Mark can suck it!

Hey dimwits, stop blaming the CW for Chad leaving. They didn’t force him out….HE bolted from the scene. Geez. He’s a two-timing prima donna, anyway. Stop building him up to be something he’s absolutely NOT. He was the weak link on OTH, and life will be SO much sweeter with him in L.A. groveling for a job.

And all you Brian Austin Green lovers (why?): No need to blame the CW for HIS losing the role, either. He chickened out like a little puss. So there you have baby Chad and baby Brian, each offered roughly $1.65-million for a few months work in lead roles….and they turned it down.

Welcome aboard, Robert. You seem like a nice guy who will bring a new degree of professionalism to the set of OTH. And for all those little whiney girls who say “I’ll never watch again!,”….good riddance. Go watch The Moment of Truth on Fox or something. Just stop talking. You’re some of the most annoying people in America.

@Heather: yea pleanty of people dont like him. but plenty of people do.

i hve heard nasty things about all of the cast members from people who know/work with them. no one is every loved by everyone.

chad was extreamly popular in the first 3 seasons and is IMO the only reason the show is still on the air. his fan base then saved the show. everyone hates him now and bashes him for no reason.

i will not watch. i’m sorry i love chad and thats why i was watching it. plus i really dont see how there is at all a chance that they will pull this off after the last two seasons.

OMG.
All of these stupid idiots whining about “I’m not going to watch now” are so fckin annoying. If you don’t wanna watch, -THEN DON’T. No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to watch the show next season.
And if you not gonna tune in, then so be it. Because I know plenty of people who will and are actually excited for the new season.
All of these whining idiots just make everyone else who reads there comments just laugh.

@lisa:
Ummmm Lisa…..I have no idea where you’ve been living these past few years or whatever. But Chads fanbase isn’t what saved the show during the first three seasons. Thats actually pretty funny if you really believe thats true. You want to know what saved the show from being canceled then??
It was actually the fans of OTH in general. Its was the fans of each character and actor/actress on the show including the fans who just really loved the show in general without having any favorites(I actually know quite a few people like that). All those fans put together is what has kept this show on for as long as it has. It wasn’t just Chad fans who kept the show on air. Don’t disregard the other actors and actresses on the show who have large fan followings and have kept the show from being canceled.

@Mary: if you really believe in the beginning LIKE I SAID any of the other actors had half as many fans as he did? uhhh no. and they did. if you go on any forum half of the members say “well i started watching for chad, but…” chad has given this show and these fans a lot and all anyone does is bash him.

@lisa:
Actually the other actors and actresses DID have more or less the same number of fans as he did. I think I would’ve know since I’ve been watching the show for six years now and have been on forums related to the cast and show for long enough to know that A LOT of people had different reasons for starting to watch the show…..and NO, it wasn’t because of Chad. I’m not saying that their aren’t people out there who didn’t start watching because of him because their are. But I also happen to know A LOT of people who started watching for other reasons. So don’t just chalk it all up to him. I’m not bashing him or anything….I’m just saying what I’ve seen and know from being a huge fan of this show for years.
But this post is about Robert Buckley coming to OTH and thats all. If people will watch the show or won’t watch the show then its entirely up to them. But whats the point of sitting there and saying “I won’t watch” and stuff? If you won’t watch, then fine…..theres no need to advertise it. Especially since we all know that no one really seems to care. This is a blog and people don’t really care.

He’s not as hot as CMM…gutted he’s leaving *tears*

one tree hill is the worst show on tv. it should be a day time show and play during the soap operas its so bad. sophia cries all the time because she thinks it makes her look talented, james is boring, hilarie burton is just dreadful with her gapping mouth. chad and joy are the only good ones. so glad chad left the show and will be doing movies now.

thank gawd hes in… so much better than chad…. way hotter too….. cant wait for him on OTH…

@weexer:
Oh so now since Chad has left OTH, you think that its the “worst show?” Give me a break you moron. You probably weren’t saying any of that sh*t when Chad was still on the show. If you really believe that Chad was one of the “good” actors on the show….then you clearly don’t know what acting really is. Do you have any f*ckin idea how much a lot of people dreaded his scenes, especially after mid-season 4. It turns out that fans of the show aren’t the only ones who think he doesn’t know how to act. I’ve seen some lists on certain sites that have ranked him as one of the worst actors on television. All he does is squint and bores people to death in his scenes. But hey, if thats your definition of “good acting,” then suit yourself.

hokiegirl517 @ 06/12/2009 at 5:29 pm

I like CMM and Hilarie Burton. But, I stopped watching OTH b/c of the Lucas and Peyton pairing. For those that will stop watching OTH b/c those two left, there will be those tuning back in now that they are gone and fans of the new actors and actresses. I would be so sure that OTH will tank. I do wish the best of luck too CMM and Hilarie Burton.

hokiegirl517 @ 06/12/2009 at 5:34 pm

I can’t wait to see what Robert Buckley can bring to the table!

@haha

i wouldnt call people ‘morons’ for their opinions. chad is one of my fave actors and he has scenes where he is extreamly good as well as ones where he is not so strong. i think he is a good actor, he has things he needs to work on but he is good. i don’t care if you hate him or love him or hate his acting or love it. its your opinion but he by far not the worst on TV, heck even on OTH.

i dont understand why you feel like you have to call names and swear at people for what they think.

all the actors have good and bad scenes.

and while you have found chad on lists of the worst actors on tv he has also been on the ones for the best on tv.

hokiegirl517 @ 06/12/2009 at 5:34 pm

“I can’t wait to see what Robert Buckley can bring to the table!”
- Um… because Dawn is *ucking idiot she thinks just adding a good looking guy to the mix will magically replace two main characters leaving and increase the ratings. Robert is nice to look at , but I don’t give a *uck about him being on One Tree Hill honestly. Just another pointless character in One Tree Hill land.

hokiegirl517 @ 06/12/2009 at 7:39 pm

Good for you Megan…..You don’t care about Robert Buckley being on One Tree Hill…..But, you must considering you are posting about it. So when did you realize you had psychic abilities?

Stephanie @ 06/12/2009 at 7:58 pm

And here I was, so excited that Brian would be on the show :( I’m a bit disappointed, I had my hopes up…
Don’t really know this guy but he looks good, let’s hope he does a good job.

This show SUCKED when Chad was on and guess what it still going to SUCK when he is not there, maybe even more. LMAO as for this Robert dude yeah he is going to bring alot to the table…what playing another useless Lucas 2.0 to Nathan…Um yeah SUCKS..

For everyone who keeps saying that people need to shut up about Chad bein kicked off the show…need to take there own advice and STFU as well. I don’t think alot of people here believe that Chad was kicked off the show. In fact, I think we all know that he CHOSE to leave and thank god he did…

Yeah he sucks so bad that is why he was the only OTH cast member to be submitted for an Emmy nominee…yeah go look at the list even if you all think he sucks, and maybe he won’t get picked for an EMMY nomination, at least he was submitted by the network or Mark thought he was good enough for it….SO ALL OF YOU WHO THINK HE SUCKS CAN GO SUCK ON THAT!!!! I love how people think he is going no where in his career LMAO like they can predict the future…ummm helloo obviously people think he is a great actor that is why he has been in movies and won awards GEEZ…

I was happy to see Chad got submitted for an Emmy Nomination this year…Even IF he doesn’t get chosen to be a nominee at least he was submitted by the network or creator…that says alot right there.

@Annie:
WHY DON’T YOU SUCK ON IT INSTEAD??????????
The only reason he was probably submitted for an Emmy nomination by Mark was because this is his last season. He’s gone for good. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen someone who has finished their character on a series get nominated for an Emmy nomination.
And Annie…..just because Chad has been in a few teen movies where he was constantly overshadowed by his co-stars like Hilary Duff, Paris Hilton, and Lindsay Lohan, or won an award here and there(mostly for his looks) doesn’t exactly make him a “great” actor.

^ here come the reason as to why Chad was submitted…oh lord. He can’t be submitted bc he is a good actor, no it has to be for other stupid reason. give me a f*cking break.

^^
If you really believe that Chad was submitted because he is a “good” actor than thats hilarious. Mark and probably a few others who work on the show submitted his name. If it was up to Mark, he would’ve submitted all five of them. I’m kind of surprised he didn’t.lol This is probably his way of trying to garner attention for the shows seventh season later on this year. It won’t work because the people behind the Emmy nomination process are probably laughing as we speak at Mark or anyone else thinking that someone from the CW was actually submitted for a nomination. Next thing you know, the creators behind 90210 and Gossip Girl will probably start doing the same thing next year as well.lol

@Lisa: funny how chad is one of two cast members who has ever won an award and funny how last year he was the ONLY one to win anything! he has twice as many awards as sophia and she is the only other cast member who has won anything.

yea he suck.

i hope he gets a emmy nom JUST to piss you all off

@lulu:
Actually just you wishing that Chad gets an Emmy nom is hilarious on its own. That will NEVER happen. Sorry…..but the CW and its shows or any actors or actresses on its shows will never get an Emmy nomination. Some of them actually do deserve Emmy’s like the guys on Supernatural but the hard, cold truth is, it will NEVER happen. And just because Chads name was submitted or whatever doesn’t mean anything at all. Why? Because Mark, the shows creator, was behind it all. In order for it to actually mean something, the people behind the Emmy’s would have to be ones to nominate him for an actual award and even the most delusional people in the world know that will never happen. All one has to do is take a look at past nominations, networks, shows, and winners at the Emmys to know that it will never happen.

@Elizabeth: well for one you can’t tell the future from the past BUT i know he wont. he has not been very good this season and the writing SUCKS

ROBERT BUCKLEY IS UGLY, ONLY THING HE HAS GOING FOR HIM IS A BODY, THAT IS IT. STUPID DUMB GIRLS ” OMG HE IS HOTT” SHUT UP SERIOUSLY.

BRIAN AUSTIN GREEN IS MUCH SEXIER TOO BAD HIS MANAGERS AND SUCH COULDN’T GET THE DEAL SIGNED FOR HIM BECAUSE THEY ARE DUMB.

I would watch just for him.

I think the name of this show should be changed.

awww. i’m so sad that chad and hilarie are leaving =[ but i’m glad that the show isn’t just over this season. i love this show and have been watching it since i was like 12. i’m excited to see the new changes but i would have loved to see where lucas and peyton would’ve gone after all this time of waiting for them to be together.

hello you @ 06/13/2009 at 2:31 pm

Extremely HOT!!

is rob the new male co-star that will be tapping joys ugly cooter this year? you know shell be spreadings her legs for one costar ;)

i don’t believe he is replacing chad.
i believe they are reinventing NEW characters.
sometimes its peoples time to movie on and i guess thats what hilarie and chad are doing, good luck to them both.
i honestly think the show will still work!
people shouldn’t critisize before they watch.

I went to school with Robert! Good for him!

@Ell:

Just what I was saying :) I guess that “Lo” didn’t understand.

ni the original @ 06/14/2009 at 5:15 pm

ni number 2 you fail
soffeee isnt a tramp so your joke fails
joy is and she fcks her costars so its legit
which costar is she fkcing this year? lets predict

ROBERT BUCKLEY IS A BILLION TIMES HOTTER THAN CMM.

@anode:
I would love to see YOU killed off instead b*tch.
It would be nice if another hateful and f*cked up person is no longer a part of this world.
Mark doesn’t need any “respect” from someone so clearly f*cked up in the head.
The two people I hated from the show are finally gone. Lets celebrate that instead b*tch.

@samanta:
I know you’re the same f*ckin LOSER who keeps on coming back here and making those absurd comments. Keep it up because all it does is make everyone realize that you’re nothing but a huge pile of worthless dogshittt.

This is kinda weird..but Robert is so much hotter!

NO
I WANT CHAD AND HILARIE
LEYTON FOREEVER

bronaghmca @ 06/28/2009 at 5:54 pm

i love the show and love rob buckley but why?!? i love cmm!! =(

am officially ending my OTH viewing at season 6. OTH went far due to the Lucas-Peyton story now take away stalkers, high-risk pregnancy, heart condition, a biological mum with cancer, a novel about Peyton and leave the Nathan- Haley story that is frankly boring as well as the equally boring Julian-Brooke story, plus the fact that Karen, Dan, Whitey, are gone. there is no point watching season 7; am just waiting for the day it will be announced that OTH will be cancelled. I wish CMM and HB could join Grey’s Anatomy.

OMGGG. i cant BeLiEvE Chad Michael Murray is leaving!!! : ( im CRUSHED!!

Sounds like everybody is watching the show because of the actor/actress looks and not the storyline. Pretty sad how America has turned out. I hope that everybody on this blog is drop dead gorgeous because that what is sounds like to me. The show has a storyline and looks is not one of them. Sorry people OTH is going to be so awesome especially now they are acting more within their age group. Remember Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For actor/actress they should be measure by their acting ability not their looks unless they are selling their looks/bodies to the world.

Ok people want hot and sexy, well i think that is STUPID AND SHALLOW!!! Now for cutting chad and hilary i think that is also STUPID!!! One thing is the show is suppose to be about two brothers and the friends that surround them, now i think its crap! I wont be watching anymore, Lucas is suppose to be the narator NOT Dan!!!! And to cut Hillary and Chad right when they get married and have a child is rediculously STUPID!! The show sucks, and I think that Hilary and Chad should have thought about their fans and took what they were offered as pay, the only reason they have fans is because of OTH. I’m sorry but all of you that think getting rid of Lucas and Peyton is a pluss, you will find out that you are very wrong, because those charactors are what made the show from the beggining!!! Sure bringing in new charactors is fine but leave the main ones where they belong, witch are Lucas, Peyton, Haily, Nathon, Brook, Skills, and Mouth. I do have a feeling that this is going to be the last season of One Tree Hill, with out two of the main charactors in witch one was the narator!!!!!!!
