StarNews: Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols ready for “One Tree Hill” season 9. Is The CW?

---


Good news for fans of the locally filmed TV series “One Tree Hill” who want a ninth season!

Stars Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols tweeted early this morning that they each had signed on for a ninth season of “One Tree Hill,” if there is one.

@SophiaBush: “Well faithful followers … I am officially in for ONE last year of OTH. The writers have GREAT plans! Now all we need is a CW pick up! .”

They also confirmed that Rob Buckley, Jana Kramer and Lisa Goldstein are locked in as well.

That still leaves question marks for James Lafferty, new mom Bethany Joy Galeotti, Shantel Van Santen, Stephen Colletti and Lee Norris. (According to Zap2It, Jackson Brundage’s contract logically depends on whether his TV parents, Lafferty and/or Galeotti, return.)

Now, of course, none of this means the show is definitely coming back. But ratings seem OK, and local crew members seem upbeat.

The big question: Would you watch the show if only the cast members above returned?

PS: I hope the show does get to go out with some closure, and if it does come back I’d like it to be definitively the last year. But I don’t put much stock in the factthat Bush and Nichols both said that they only signed on for ONE more year. For the past few seasons one cast member or another has said that they or the show was done after that season. And every year the show (and most of those actors) came back. I’m sure they plan for next season to be their last. But would they have said last April that would be upping for a ninth season right now? You never know what’s going to happen in Tree Hill.
