Exclusive! OTH's Mark Schwahn and Ashley Rickards on Sam
Love her or hate her, you've got to admit that foster kid Samantha has really shaken things up on One Tree Hill. We met her as a shoplifter, and since then have seen her make some seriously boneheaded decisions (taking Jamie to the party where her friends trashed Brooke's store?). But Haley and Jamie think she can be redeemed, and Brooke is testing out motherhood with this troubled kid.
Our own Jason C. sat down with series creator Mark Schwahn to find out where the idea for Sam came from, and what he expects her to bring to the established characters. Plus, listen for the shout-out/slam that mark has for Jason -- we're reasonably sure he's kidding!
Then, Jason talked to Ashley Rickards, and found out that she's a lot different from her character. Ashley talks about her high school career, what she does for fun in Wilmington, and what's next on her plate. Check it out!

Good for her that she was able to finish school so early (since she apparently wanted to do that) .. hopefully she still had (and has) plenty of time for normal kid/teen stuff too! Balance is very important.
