Chad Michael Murray getting kicked off One Tree Hill?
YouTube user Allee8890 caught up with One Tree Hill star Chad Michael Murray in North Carolina where the actor revealed he's being kicked off the show next season because The CW "wants to save money." He encouraged fans to "start blogging and being pissed off" which is kind of absurd. Then who's going to blog about how awesome a kisser Robert Pattinson is? You might as well punch a hole straight through the Internet.
EDIT: Vid's been pulled. E! Online has a mini-transcript for those who missed it.

BLASPHEMY! His occasional (gigantic) nipples are the only reason to watch the show.

And we should care about him because...?

One Tree..what? Who the fuck is this skinhead?

I have never EVER watched that show. Not into teenage nighttime soap operas (ok, I am guilty of watching the first season of the O.C., but really...didn't we ALL??) So, anyway, I'll get right on that, Chad!!
"Dear SpaceBook:
WTC! OMG! Chad's off the show? Now I am NEVER going to start watching it! You guys suck! Why don't you kick Reba off her show as well!!!!!
Very truly yours,
FRIST!!!"

I'm not in the showbiz, but isn't it better to take your sacking with grace, and move on to the next project, than to act like a teenaged girl throwing a hissy fit? Who the hell will want to hire him after this nonsense?
Kid better be fitted for a Hardees uniform.

What that is terrible! Isnt he the main character?
One Tree Hill is a drama that takes itself way too seriously and has the most insane plotlines and the show is unintentionally the funniest show on tv!

One Tree Hill is still on?
9. Adam - March 23, 2009 3:38 PM
Wow, I thought the only reason that any of the regulars were still on the show was because they had signed very long-term contracts. Like on Smallville for instance.
The fact that he wants to stay on that show is telling about his career.

People named Chad are generally overprivileged assholes anyway.
11. Caroline - March 23, 2009 3:47 PM

19. Pepe - March 23, 2009 4:48 PM
Hey #10 - it takes an asshole to know one - did he steal your girl away & you're still bitter?
20. Jrz - March 23, 2009 5:03 PM
What's with the two fucking homos with faux spanish names ganging up on Rich because he said dudes named Chad are douchebags? Jeez....didn't know Latino homos were so protective of WASPy douchebag dudes.

I suppose he's got his David Beckham look alike career to fall back on
22. Chad - March 23, 2009 5:37 PM

27. Tom K - March 23, 2009 6:47 PM

This show is actually entertaining. It has insane ridiculous plot lines and Dan Scott is a spitting image ( in looks and character) of Rob Blagojevich (sp?). That alone should peak interest. If not... On last nights episode Dan Scott needed a heart transplant and while he was waiting for it in the ER the Fed Ex dude carrying the heart tripped and fell spilling the heart onto the ground where a hippie's dog (who was waiting to be treated) ran over and ate the heart. Yeah OTH is not easily dismissed.

This is so bad i'll never be able to watch this show without lucas!!!!
32. gerard Vandenberg - March 24, 2009 1:26 AM

i beg to disagree--that's why the hills is still airing.
34. RichPort's Ghost - March 24, 2009 10:35 AM
#19 - Yes, he stole my girl... but your mom seems happier now that I'm not stretching her nethers so far any more, and I'm happier that she doesn't cry after sex anymore, so we all win.
Nothing named Chad is good... even the African country is for shit.
35. Shakibing - March 25, 2009 9:01 AM

Any fan of the show knows that without CMM portraying the lead role of Lucas Scott, the entire show will suffer. I suspect the renewed season 7 is the last season anyway, so that may be why the network and show execs are willing to take a risk by not bringing him back. Most likely negotiations are not going well which would be a reasonable explanation for Chad to vent to his fans. He's very good in the role and it would be a shame if he didn't return next season.

ok, ill be considered "gay" but whatever...I LOVED one tree hill, LOVED it...first....4-5 seasons were brilliant...the writing style, it was poetic...now...the past 2 seasons have turned into the most ridiculous television...I cant even watch it...I miss Lucas already on this show...
for those haters, go buy or netflix season 1 and 2...then tell me it sucks...Its a GREAT show early on, it just couldnt survive the 6 season run like oz/wire(5)/shield
