it turned peyton to even more of a victim and i don't think it did her any kind of justice.

It added more drama, exept peyton was so annoying and helpless for like 5 episodes....

I liked it, I think OTH deals with some really good/important themes and issues but I just wish they hadn't had him turn up to "pick her up" for the prom. It was so obvious coming and just soooo cliche! Irritated me.

for a while the whole show was focused on peyton which annoyed me a bit

i liked it
it was like a thrill deal-y sorta
and Ian [his real name]
was sorta cute too ;)
cept scary . . .

yes i thought it was brill and i felt so sorry for peyton and when peyton and brooke fought together to beat him it was awesome brookes brill

At least it taught peyton how to rely on herself a little more

yup, in the ending we saw how close peyton & brooke really are.

i loved it , it keeped me hooked yeh it made peyton more helpless but who wouldnt be at a time like that going to sleep at nite or leaving the house not knowing if he watching you ar if you are goin to wake up. It was a great story line and put awarness out to people how easy it can happen to someone and it brought her brother into it and i think that she really needed someone new there for her

i hated it!! Peyton has been through enough...

i really liked it. it was interesting and drama-full. but i do agree that it made peyton seem really helpless, but i would probably be the same way if it happened to me. i didnt like how there was SO much focus on just that in the show tho. i did love how brooke came and they worked together and were ok again. that was awesome.

I'm crazy...I know...but I like stalker!(in storylines^^) xDDDD

it really hurt peyton..she has been through enough

i think it was okay to begin with but it got a little to dramatic for the show

It was really dumb. Hilarie overacted a little bit. (Not that I could do what she can do, but it was kinda annoying.)

i agree w// cymbalchick! hil`s acting was def at the worst during that time!

omg the prom episode freaks me out was kinda creepy

it was different, i liked it though and was suprised when he came back during the prom episode..

I loved how it brought real action and horror to the show!..and no, I don't think Hil overacted.. it was just right!
I think it's great that oth has storylines that step out of the main-stream genre, that is what makes oth so good!

Who didn't, so much drama and so intresting.

it was dead dramatic and it was focused on alot, but with a storyline that sorta big, i think they had to. just the idea of it really freaked me out.

I reckon it was a brilliant drama and besides Lucas saved Peyton and we finally had Leyton happening once again and also Peyton found out she had a brother and for that Derek and peyton's scene it was the best but very creepy

I think it was really good because peyton and brooke were friends again :) Go Breyton!! The acting was great and it was one of those moments when you can't look away from the screen. It was great x

I liked it, it brought peyton and lucas closer again and brooke and peyton....

it was awesome, but still i think it took too much screentime. but that brooke and peyton got BFF cause of it was so great!!

Yeah I loved it... It brought Leyton back 2-gether because Lucas was always saving her... And Breyton back because Peyton and Brooke took him down... I am so glad that Lucas and Peyton are 2-gether again and Brooke and Peyton and Lucas are all friends again...

Leyton
~n~
Breyton
4ever

lol i love the it was great it caused peyton alot of pain one lmao. but no i hated it. it was soo stupid, i felt like i was watching a bad horror movie.

I liked it.. but it did take up alot of the season's storyline :S

i liked it because it brought lucas and peyton closer. and peyton and brooke became friends again.

Hehehe peyton got hurt

seriously SSSHHHH!!!!!! However HAHAHAH

i liked it because (not cause it hurt peyton!!) it just added moe to the show, you know made it better to watch

Hilarie couldn't act in season 4 at all, she was so exaggerated all the time and Peyton is the most annoying character ever. I didn't know anyone could feel so sorry for themselves?! Seriously, she's so boring, selfish, self-absorbed, depressing, whiny, lame, pathetic and a cold hearted BITCH who's way to obsessed with Lucas. I can't stand her. She's a totall pain in the ass.

Crazy Darek was SEXY

i thought it was GREAT! it was scary and thrilling and crazy! i loooved it! and if u put the whole peyton got hurt thing what is wrong with you?!

I wouldn't have minded if it was about Brooke though :)

Oh the Peyton hate conts...WTH, yeh it was awesome because it made her stronger, even haters can't say it was awesome and it made her more interesting.
I am glad to be on Team Whore, they call it? I mean Team KICKASS!

I Didn't Like It Beacause It Caused Peyton's Pain But At The Same Time It Was Very Interesting And Enjoyable.

loved it!! my fave stalker was psycho Derek, this is one of the reasons why season 4 is my ultimate favorite!
it also proved how great actress Hilarie is <3

Obviously I don't like to watch Peyton hurt, afraid or in pain but I did enjoy watching the Psycho Derek stalker story line. I loved how it was all planned since the end of season 2 with the nickname 'watch me watch you'. I loved how protective Lucas was of Peyton and how ultimately Peyton's real brother came in the picture. IMO it was a great story line - internet stalker exist and OTH showed it very well.

But how many PSYCHOS are there in OTH?
Like I said I enjoyed the Pyscho Derek story line but after that OTH went into overdrive with all these psychos walking around. I mean Carrie, the one when Brooke was attacked, the 'fake' wife of Clay and Brooke psycho attack her once again? The first one was original and I liked Brooke's story line in S6 but the others were too much. Mark become too repetitive IMO and lacked imagination. Five psychos in six seasons? A little too much.

But to return to the original question - yes I love the psycho Derek story line.
