Sophia Bush's One Tree Hill Finale Quibble

Sophia Bush, who portrayed Brooke Davis, recently voiced a specific critique of her former show, One Tree Hill's, final season. While Bush found the overall conclusion to be a "present" for fans, she expressed dissatisfaction with one particular plotline involving the reintroduction of the antagonist Xavier Daniels.

Bush, co-hosting the "Drama Queens" podcast, questioned the narrative purpose of Xavier's return, noting his history of violence and criminal acts.
