I find myself always writing articles about similarities between characters and shows, and this article is no different.
Have you ever seen the OC, you know the story, and you know that although the two (oth and the oc) are two teen dramas, they couldn't be more different. But I find that the similarites are practically endless. It's strange really how they can have so many similarities and still the two shows can seem complete opposites. Let me explain my conclusion.
Both are stories of brotherhood. Defiantly different types of brotherhood- Ryan and Seth being friends from the start and growing into brothers, as Lucas and Nathan are two brothers from the start, and grow into accepting each other as brothers, and as friends. But both story lines are about the continuesly growing bond between these two characters, fighting rough spots that harm their brotherhood.
And, as in most teen dramas, there is at least one love triangle. In the oc they're are many minor ones, and in One tree hill there is one (or two if you count lincas/leyton) big triangle(s). But both have love triangles. In the OC there was Seth, Summer, and Zack which was less sneaky and more for humor as in One Tree HIll there was one REALLY heavy one that was more dramatic (Brooke/Lucas/Peyton).
There were also minor triangles that lasted only a few episodes in the beginning of season 1.
For One Tree Hill there was Lucas/Peyton/Nathan and in The Oc there was Ryan/Marissa/Luke.
(Lots of Lukes are in love triangles- lol)
And for my last similarity, because I have detected many more but don't really have the space to write them all down, nor the time, One tree hill and The OC both have almost rapes, that result in a serious brawl.
Trey nearly raped Marissa when she got close to him and trusted him as her friend, and Peyton almost got raped by Psycho Derek/Ian when she began to grow close to him as a friend and brother, and trusted him.
There are also some similarites between Peyton and Marissa, but not many.
Although it wasn't much of an article, there it is, so please comment and tell me your thoughts. =]

Did any1 know that before S7 started, Mark Schwahn had his heart on making Quinn, Haley's younger sister. She was originally suppose to be a gymnast not a photographer. Clay was suppose to start as her agent and it would have develop from there. They were introduce together.
Quinn was a senior in college, Clay was a young agent just out of college. He went recruiting at Tree Hill College in 7x01 and spotted her at the gym practicing for a big meet.
Both of their pasts were completely different. Quinn was never married, David was originally her boyfriend that she broke up with because he cheated on her and they would had flashbacks to show what went wrong with them. Their plan was way better than what happened. Clay's backstory was completely different, it involved his relationship with his family and how he had a drug problem and how he relapsed. There was no Ghost Sarah or anything.
Mark had to do rewrites cause Haley fans complained bout Quinn being the youngest.
