The announcement of the iHeartRadio podcast, titled Drama Queens, comes after Bush, Burton and other cast members have revealed the inappropriate behavior behind the scenes, including allegedly from creator Mark Schwann. "Quarantine hit and I was doom scrolling like everyone else. And the number of people who were posting about how in this really scary time at the start of the pandemic, they were starting One Tree Hill over again, really kind of hit me," Bush tells People. "I was like, this show has something magic about it. It feels really evergreen to so many people. So let's be very clear that it feels great to be executive producing this podcast together. We're like, 'Oh, who's in charge? We're in charge.' Yeah. We're in charge and it's great. I love it. I love a reclamation."

"One Tree Hill" Podcast Reveals Robert Buckley will Take Over for Hilarie Burton, Leaving Fans with Deja Vu
by Andy Swift
July 8, 2024

"One Tree Hill" fans are expressing mixed reactions to a major announcement made on Monday’s episode of Drama Queens, The CW drama’s official rewatch podcast, as it prepares to explore the show’s final three seasons.

Robert Buckley, who joined in Season 7, is coming aboard the podcast as a new regular co-host, while Hilarie Burton, whose character left at the end of Season 6, will have a reduced role moving forward.

Sophia Bush and Bethany Joy Lenz will continue to regularly co-host the podcast.

“We have reached the end of my behind-the-scenes experience on the show,” Burton explained before announcing Buckley as her successor.

“I really started to question what I brought to this, but also how we keep that storytelling alive and important. As we head into Seasons 7 through 9, it was important that we introduced a new queen who could take over for me. I’m still going to pop in here and there, but [we needed someone] who represented the same things that I brought to the show.”

On one hand, this shift makes perfect sense. As a series regular on the show’s final three seasons, Buckley will be able to provide unique insight and share the types of behind-the-scenes stories that have become a staple of the podcast.

And fans aren’t unhappy about this new addition, with words like “thrilled” and “love” popping up in comments on the podcast’s Instagram announcement.

But amid the excitement of Buckley’s arrival come legitimate concerns from longtime listeners, many of whom were looking forward to hearing Burton’s thoughts about how the show changed after she and Chad Michael Murray literally drove off into the sunset at the end of Season 6.
