First the good news, at least for the show's fans: One Tree Hill will return for a seventh season in the fall.
Now the bad news: Chad Michael Murray won't be on it. Nor will his costar Hilarie Burton.
The CW network confirms to E! Online that both actors—who've been with the show since its 2003 debut—have been axed from the show.
While no official reason was given, both Murray and Burton have been in lengthy contract negotiations. The network says that new characters will be introduced to take their place.
Have your say in the comments section: Will a One Tree Hill without Murray and Burton be worth watching?

NOOOO!!
i'm thinking that peyton will die then because of the baby?!
what the hell ?! NO ! it wont thats so ugh , depressing . its not one tree hill w/out them . & how is it that they arent in season 7 ? they have to pick up where they left off w/ the baby accident in the season finale .
AAAAAAHHH WTF?!?!?!
no f*ckin way!
i'm not watching the next season if they get new people to take their place.
now if the CHARACTERS are leaving also, i guess i will still watch.
what a heartbreaker :(
The show will not be worth watching- it will mess with the story lines to much because both characters are mixed into all of the other character's lives.
As far as im concerned monday is the finale for OTH, not just for the season...
The season finale hasnt aired yet! Its on next monday- where everyone is assuming that Peyton dies.
They shouldn't even do anymore seasons if they are going to cut Lucas or Peyton out of the show.They make One Tree Hill, One Tree Hill.
Well I guess it's time to stop watching one tree hill. Without Lucas or Peyton I'm done with the show sorry CW.
that is such BS. the show started being centered around chad. he IS the show. i, for one, wont be watching anymore. thats so ridiculous.
Oh ok , thanks i forgot i did read that somewhere . idk why i thought it was the last episode i got mixed up but thank you (:
This is total crap. One tree hill without Lucas & Peyton is like Dallas without J.R. Ewing!!! IT DOESN"T WORK!!!!! I wondrer what would happen if this entire fan base stopped watching CW period not just One Tree hill but all of their shows? I wonder if we'd get some reconsideration then?
