Peyton's evolution throughout the seasons is the most complex thing in OTH. The reason why she is my most favorite character is because she's undeniably a person meant for greatness. The problem with her is she can't seem to figure out her emotional needs once it's too late and end up backing herself into a truck-load of defeat and shame. I think she's the girl who's always in the misery business. But she deserves to be loved and be taken care of.
I mean, Season 1 showcased her as the tortured artist, someone who believes music can change the world. Her idealism is very touching, although most people in the real world will probably laugh at her (in season 5 we saw that with her big-time boss.) Then Season 2 with her being just friends with Lucas, fixing things with Brooke then trying to be with Jake...she was evolving to somebody who wasn't scared to care for someone deeply.
Then Season 3: my most favorite moment for her: she had a good thing with Lucas. Now I agree: THEY'RE MORE THAN FRIENDS...BUT NEVER LOVERS!!! Their "LOVE" is "PLATONIC." And I liked Peyton's courage with Ellie and then at Season 4 with Psycho Derek (with Brooke's help of course so Breyton is a real friendship to me.)
Before I used to hate P. Sawyer when I have never watched seasons 1-4 completely because I don't own a DVD copy yet. Then finally I did and I never blamed Peyton for the BRUCAS breaking up thing. Like we said, maybe the writers are to blame because of Chopia divorce.
Brooke has a big heart; she's the optimist and I like her evolution as well just as Haley's. Peyton's is bumpy and cruel and very flawed but she is fascinating for it and people accusing her as a backstabbing whore (sadly, some BL fans hold to that notion) forget that she was a great character and maybe she will be the one to realize that Lucas isn't true love always for her. Leyton is sizzling but it's destructive and Peyton really did deserve Jake.
