I fell in love with Nathan because he was exactly the kind of man I want in my life. Haley took a chance on him and she never regretted it! He was the most popular guy in school and she never had to question if he was being faithful to her. He told her AND showed her every single day. If the man I end up with is anything like nathan I will be one happy woman!
I have a tie of Dan & Nathan. They both were totally different characters in the pilot. While Nathan changed a lot quicker of course, Dan was a totally different man by the late seasons. If I had to pick another, Haley comes next!
At the beginning of the show, Lucas was my favorite. However, I fell in love with Nathan in episode 1.07 “The Search for Something More.” That was the episode that Brooke arranged a date for Nathan and Haley. At the end of the episode, the song “Untold” by Pete Francis was playing and Nathan walks out of the school and sees Haley, then sees his friends/team mates. He acknowledges his friends but then chooses to go talk to Haley. The way he strokes her hair and looks at her like she is the only person that matters to him at that moment. This is the episode that I think Nathan realizes that he has feelings for Haley and that they could have something good and real and he doesn’t want to screw it up. So overall, I have to say Nathan is my favorite with Haley a close second then Lucas.
@courtney, I agree with what you said. Actions speak louder than words and not only did Nathan tell Haley, he SHOWED her he loved her. Any woman would be happy to have someone like Nathan.
Going away from the “Nathan Love” I am going to have to say Peyton! I can relate to her inner agnst a bit to well. I love that she overcame so many bad things and while they might have knocked her down, she never stayed down very long. Plus she always knew who the love of her life was and she neve gave up on him!
I miss P Sawyer! 
Plus her taste in music is pretty bad ass! – Then for a close second would be Sam!!! 
That was one cool little chick! And she pushed Brooke to follow her deams! Without Sam we might not have had a Brulian wedding! 
Peyton Sawyer Scott
Haley is definitely my favorite character.. FROM THE VERY BEGINNING! I loved that she never made any apologies for who she was and she accepted herself with a confident and sensible outlook. I definitely related to her the most. I think she’s incredibly smart, and beautiful. I think another reason why I love her so much is because I love Joy. I loved all of her storylines and her friendships with Lucas and Brooke are amazing to watch. Also, she’s never whiny *cough Peyton cough* she makes mistakes and admits when she’s wrong. She is inspiring, and strong, and not to mention she has amazing taste in men!
This is easy. I loved Brooke. She was feisty and funny and sexy. She was strong and selfless and kindhearted. She was loving and caring and stubborn.
And as Julian said “Gorgeous brunette with an amazing energy and smile. Funny. Intelligent. Kind-hearted. Strong-headed. Simple. Complicated. Motherly. Childish. Tough. Sensitive. Beautiful.”
Plus she had good taste in man:P
Haley! From the very first episode it was Haley!
She has been such an inspiration to me. She was the most like me and I really connected with her character. I even got married in high school lol. I got to meet Joy this past April and it was amazing! I would write more but what I have to write pretty much is summed up by imagine23 up there 
Brooke! She’s just the best character. No need to explain.
Haley would have to be my favorite! I loved watching her fall in love with Nathan while trying to stay true to herself. She was the rock in all of her relationships and people knew they could always turn to her. I loved seeing the amazing wife, mother, sister and friend that she was in her adult years. But I do love all the other characters as well!
Haley James (Scott) is my favorite character on oth. i loved her since episode one and i continued to watch it just for her in the beginning. she was the most relatable/realistic character to me even though half of the things happened to her were pure fiction LOL
but haley’s humbleness made it seem “possible” I LOVED WATCHING HER GROW OVER THE YERAS! it was a beautiful journey to witness 
Chase. Sike.
Nathan R. Scott hands down. He was the character you loved to hate when he was a jerk, the guy you felt bad for after being bullied by his dad but yet he remained strong. He was the guy that gave his whole heart to haley and he never got it back, it was hers to begin with. He’s a great dad, husband and his character had grown so much over the past 9 seasons
I began watching at the beginning of season 5. Immediately, my favorite character was Peyton. We shared the love of music, and I envied how she was able to make that her career. I was dealing with a very similar relationship situation and I admired her strength and nobility and faith. When I watched seasons 1-4, my opinion didn’t change. Seeing what life threw at Peyton and how she persevered every single time taught me so much about life. Hilarie Burton quickly became my favorite actress and I will forever be grateful for her bringing Peyton to life.
Definitely Brooke! You could tell she had such a big heart right when she started to date Lucas, it was then that I knew she was going to be the best character on the show! She was always the best friend to Peyton, even thought Peyton wasn’t always to her, and she has the biggest heart out of all of them! except maybe Nathan, but he is my second favorite!
Brooke.. Feisty funny. Beautiful….
Haley of course <3 The best. To me she is just the most relateable. I also like Dan, Nathan and Lucas.
Haley. No explanation needed.
I also want to add that the character of Haley was always written well but Joy brought something to the role which made the character exceptional.
I loved Nathan from day one! I loved his whole transformation over the course of the show, from bad boy to good man. He was the perfect example of someone who can overcome their past and not let it define their future.
Peyton Sawyer, hands down. Even though she easily had the hardest life time and time again, she always pulled through it and showed just how strong she really was. She was the realest character, in my opinion. I missed her in S7-9 sooo much!
It’s hard to answer this kind of question when you love the whole show so much
But I have to say that it depends on a season, an episode, a storyline. Sometimes I love the most Haley, sometimes it’s Peyton, sometimes Brooke. But the character I always expect and get excited to see on the screen in whichever scene is Nathan 
Was that predictable? ;D I have to admit that through first 5 or so episodes I hated him so much because he was such a jackass. But seeing him grow through the whole show was an amazing experience. I just wish that was possible in the real world for a jerk to become a loving mature husband, father, brother, friend, and basketball player. Is that to much to ask?:>
Taylor James. Just simply because Lindsey McKeon is beautiful and her short stint completely saved Season 2. Shallow much?
Nathan. Hands down.
P. Sawyer!!! I fell in love with her heart and her passion for music. Her art, her red bedroom. Her unique sense of humor. The way she loves Lucas and always has. SO many things. And I can’t NOT mention Nathan Scott. I love the character of Nathan Scott because he always rises above every situation and comes out a stronger man. I love Nate because he is a martyr. And last but not least, DAN SCOTT. What a hell of a character. Dan Scott is one of the most interesting fictional characters I have come across. At first glance he seems devilish and quite simple. But he is super complex, and there are two very different sides to him. Overall, he is SUPER bad ass. I love these three characters with everything in me, and also adore the other familiar faces of OTH, thanks to the mind of Mark Schwahn.
Peyton Sawyer. She’s such an enigma. Difficult to understand and yet very relatable. I don’t even know how to explain but she’s been my favourite since the pilot.=)
Haley James Scott has filled the favorite character role for me since the very first episode. I love that she was never afraid to be herself and she didn’t make apologies for being a little bit quirky. In fact, that’s what made her so loveable. Another thing I love about her is how completely selfless she is. Even when she ran away to go on tour….she came back to save her marriage and gave up her dreams to support Nathan’s basketball career and have a family. She is strong, beautiful, dedicated and wise beyond her years.
I adore Haley (and Joy!)
I cant; choose between Nathan or Haley.
Nathan changed himself for Haley, he promised and he showed her that he changed that he is a good man deep inside. he inspired me and i would love to have a man like him.
Haley: she was always herself, no matter what other people tought of her, saw the good things in peope instead of the bad things. she changed Nathan in a very good way.
Haley!!!! She won me over from the get go with her quirkiness and her relationship with Lucas. I love how her character set an example for young girls that you can be smart, have morals and self respect and still attract the hot popular jock in HS, refreshing to see. Nathan however is a very close second, for one because of his close connection with Haley and really Naley has become a character in itself, but also because he had so much angst and layers to him and yet was so vulnerable when it came to Haley, like a little boy when he was around her…..loved it!!! I just wanted to reach in my TV and hug him many times!!! Oh and he is hot too!
Haley is by far my favorite, no other character has surpassed or come close to my love for her, she’s been my number 1 since the first time I’ve ever watched. She’s just such a beautiful, amazing, wise, caring, intelligent character who stands up and fights for what she believes in and doesn’t take crap from anyone. She has the biggest heart out of everyone imo, she’s forgiving and believes that people deserves more than one chance and she is willing to give it to them no matter how much they hurt her. She’s so strong and determined to get through everything. She’s also respects herself and is very grounded. She has flaws and has made mistakes but she took the time to rebuild whatever has fallen in her life and after all the bad and dark times that has come in the end she always has an optimistic view on life. Also, I think Joy brings a lot on the plate as Haley. Sometimes the show doesn’t really seem to go into Haley’s pov but just with Joy’s amazing acting from her facial expressions I am able to feel all of Haley’s emotions. She’s just really an amazing person and I love her so much.
Peyton Elisabeth Sawyer.
I love everything about her. She’s the one TV character I really can relate to. All of her obsticles that she has been through and her passion for love makes me feel like I’m not alone in this world. I’ve always found a savior in her, she has always been so strong. It gave me hope that I could be strong. Her personality was always a bit “depressing” and difficult to understand for a lot of people, but I could really relate to her, because I’m in many ways just like her. I can’t even explain how this show and Peyton as a character has changed me. It was really hard to watch season 7-9 without her (and lucas), and I felt like it wasn’t the same show I fell in love with, because they mainly made the show for me. Ofc, I love all the other characters, but Peyton meant most of the characters.
Peyton and Lucas are my favorite!!!!!!
Nathan
It would have to be nathan and dan,both evolved so much throughout the series and was interesting to watch.
Peyton Sawyer Scott. For everything she went through and over came. Her love for music. Then Lucas, Haley, Nathan, and then Brooke.
Lucas is my favorite character
I love Haley. She is who I’d love to be.
Peyton! No question. She is unlike any tv character I’ve ever seen before. And because of that, I fell in love with her, and her uniqueness from the very beginning. Just about every drama tv show has a Brooke Davis, or a Nathan Scott. But Peyton has real depth, and substance, and overall originality to her. Sure, there may be other tv characters similar to her now a days… but I think she put her type of character on the map. She broke the mold. Unlike the other characters, whose personalities we (or I) had seen on other shows way before they were introduced on OTH. Peyton’s just so different… yet so relatable. Not to mention that all of her quotes, and overall outlook on life is just so powerful. She’s amazing. Period. <3
B Davis-she always put on a brave face, was entertaining, a great friend, and beautiful. I loved her friendship with Haley, which really blossomed in season 3.
So obviously, Haley is my second favorite, an that’s because I see myself as a mixture of both Haley and Brooke.
I would have to say Lucas, the twists and turns of his character just always seemed the most relatable and I always felt a little part of me in that character.
Brooke. I think she’s such a complete character and grew so much within seasons. She went to slutty and insecure to strong and successful, and that makes me love her even more.
Quinn I love her so much adn then Nathan The’re just mazaing. but everyone is !!

100% Brooke, from the very first episode I saw. She has so many layers and so much depth, and is the one character that could make me both laugh and cry in one episode. She’s seems like the best friend anyone could ever ask for, always there for everyone when they need help, and putting her friends first. She’s had the best one-liner’s on the show as well, and really bought One Tree Hill to life. Plus, it helps that Sophia is incredibly talented and absolutely stunning.
Whilst pretty much every teen show has the beautiful and popular prom queen, Brooke Davis is different, she is a cut above the rest. She is not the superficial cheerleader from the early episodes, and has developed so much! Sophia has made the character very memorable and so easy to relate to.
@helen thank you! You said everything I wanted to say and more! I was just too tired for my brain to write something moving and clear. I agree with everything you said!
I would have to say Haley. I wish i could have the patience and kindness towards anyone that she has. Her character is strong and forgiving. Not to mention smart, sarcastic, beautiful, worrisome, and funny. I also liked the fact that she was the “goodie two shoes girl next door”. Plus she was a vrigin and waited til marriage
She valued her virtue which isnt very common now a days. And the biggest factor of why Hales is my favorite character is because of her relationship with Nathan. She changed him 
Naley all the way. Nathan comes in second for me too!
@Jessica: i totally agree with on Joy’s part! She is amazing and really brought Haley to life
Nathan is my favorite characther because him and I have alot in common because of our love of basketball and we both have crappy fathers .
It took me a while to decide who to say but I am going to say Haley. She always stayed true to herself no matter what. Even when she was helping out others she never strayed from who she really was, a caring person who tried to see the best in everyone.
I’d say a close second would be Nathan because he changed for the better.
Brooke was always my favorite, with Haley second. Brooke could make you laugh, make you mad, and then make you sad, sometimes in the same scene. Her vulnerability combined with her wildness made her so interesting and entertaining.
I liked Nathan, in the first what 9 episodes, when he was a bad guy.
Then parts of the high school, fun & games, sleep around slutty, love triangle, Brooke character that related to some experiences I had in high school and right after high school.
But overall for the first six seasons it was the character of Lucas I liked best.
And I still feel that the departure of Chad and Hilarie killed the show even though I am not sure there was 3 more seasons of story left for their characters either after they were given their happy ending.
Peyton and Lucas are my favorite characters.
Peyton because she is so brave and doesn’t let anyone stop her from doing something she loves. That’s the person i would want to have as a friend.
Lucas because he comes from a family with not much money and that don’t matter to him because he has good friends. He is so kind,hot and all of the things i would want for a boyfriend. He’s just Perfect.
brooke p. davis baker!! i just love her!
she start the show as a bitch but later she became the most sweet little girl I could ever know!
all the dramas, the breakups and blablabla that involves her just stole my heart =]]
Brooke for a variety of reasons. Everyone keeps saying that Peyton is so relatable, but I’d have to disagree wholeheartedly. I think that Peyton is often selfish, inconsiderate, and she never really changed like so many of the other characters. Haley opened her mind, Nathan grew into an honest man, Brooke found her self-worth. For me, that is what is relatable. Brooke had no one growing up. I don’t even count Peyton for all the bad things she did to her, but Brooke became everything I’d want to be. She forgave when it wasn’t deserved and loved even though she always had her heart broken. Haley and Nate are close seconds.
I didn’t just have one but 3 :
Lucas Scott
Peyton Sawyer Scott
Nathan Scott
Haley!(Nathan will be included when the couples post comes around).
Brooke and Haley
I have always loved Nathan’s character. I fell in love with him in season 1 when he was falling for Haley. It was just really sweet and he changed. In later seasons I loved Julian, because he’s just really hott!! I also liked the bromance with Chris Keller and Chase
And the winner is… B. Davis! Aside from Nathan, she is one character that changed so much through the 9 years of the show. She started off being kinda of slutty mean girl that you loved to hate, but she matured so wonderfully over the years. She had a genuine heart, she was funny, she loved hard and she had such a unique relationship with all the characters.
