One Tree Hill Gets a Go for Third Season
Warner Brothers is giving One
Tree Hill producers the go-ahead for a third season, saying
it's the fastest growing show on television. Now insiders are
waiting to see if the series will return to North Carolina to
film.
If the state
passes film incentives, it will be a good step to keeping the
show here, series creator Mark Schwahn said.
“I think
for the third season, we’ll be in Wilmington. Beyond that, I get
the sense that if initiatives aren’t in place...and South Carolina
has been so aggressive... we’d really need to look hard.”
