Well, when you're an adult, your career plays a big role in your life, so I don't see them ever completely getting away from stories that involve their careers. The same goes for the other characters on the show. A big part of Brooke's storyline is COB, for Julian its working on Alex' script in the hopes of making it into a movie, for Millie, its now modeling, for Mouth, his sportcasts, etc...so we shouldn't expect that Nathan and Haley's careers won't be a focus.

I agree Becky and actually word to your entire post.

For me personally, it has come to a point where I don't care what they focus on as long as the storyline is approached well, we get quality NHJ scene, and it stays true to the characters and that we get their POV.

Like I said previously, after last season I didn't want a storyline focused on their careers anymore, but when I saw the way the Renee scandal was handled, it made me realise that if they put a new spin on things, if we see something different and how it affect their family, that they give us great scenes, than I'm happy.

When I said after Haley's tour I don't see them focusing as much on it, I meant as in we probably won't see another tour, but that doesn't mean we won't see another aspect of her music career explored. For instance, she comes back from tour, will she take a break? Will she record another album? Will she go back to producing? Like Becky said I can't see them ever just completely dropping focus on Haley's (or Nate's) careers nor would I want them too. This show has always focused on careers, for all the characters. Heck even Skills is getting a career related storyline.

That being said, I would also want along with career storylines, other stuff in their lives explored too or they can intertwine. For instance Nathan wants to discuss another child, but since Haley's career is taking off she doesn't want another baby right now. Also their careers can affect balance and relationships like Becky pointed out with NHJ, Clay/Nathan ect.

i was hoping that haley would go back into teaching.

Whatever Haley decides to do, whether it be teaching, music, or both, I just want her (and NHJ) to continue to get focus.

That would be amazing

.

Jess, could you post or PM me the picture from othforums of Lindsey

On a more recent note, I'm really excited to see Miranda again

TFTNT.

I'd like to see a pic of Taylor, it's NHJ related so I think it could be posted.

Maud&Danny · 11-08-2009, 03:31 AM

Too bad we don't know for how long Taylor's staying. Could you imagine if it was only for 1 episode? But I doubt it since it's been so long we haven't see her.

bitterly · 11-08-2009, 03:50 AM

Tftnt . Yeah Maybe Taylor is coming back for 1 episode

. I hope not ( well I think it depends of her storyline , maybe she is just there to announce something to Quinn and Haley IDK . ) But I'm curious to know why she is coming back .

Maud&Danny · 11-08-2009, 03:58 AM

I can't wait for tomorow's new episode. I feel some good NH scenes. Plus Haley's gonna rock on stage and seeing Nathan cheering her will make my night.

I miss Teacher Hales too. I loved her story there, and hated the way it ended, given that she spent 4 years in college getting her education degree. I thought Haley giving up on teaching after one setback was rather un-Haley actually. Teaching wasn't a whim or a fall back position. Haley had talked about being a teacher even back in the early days of S1.

I don't mind the tour, the record, whatever and see music is an important part of Haley's journey. Up till now when push came to shove, and someone had to sacrifice it's always been Haley. So it would be interesting to see N/H have to nagivate the waters when they both have demanding careers that don't always allow them to pick up the slack for the other. What happens when Haley's performance at some label-mandated music function is the same night as Nathan's away game, and both are on parent-teacher night at Jamie's school? I think it would be a realistic issue for a married couple.

It also occurs to me that if they're going to save RBR and keep it a viable label, they really need more artists than just Haley and Mia, so it might be interesting to see Haley get involved in the production/talent discovery aspect of the business. And it might be an interesting progression for Haley to learn that she might actually prefer that part of the business to performing. There's a lot of places they can take her in the music business, not just the straight up popstar route.

wouldn't it be cute to see Nathan being teased by his bball buddies about being married to sexy rockstar Haley James Scott though? I'd enjoy that. It's always been some what implied that Haley wasn't popular or pretty enough for Nathan. I'd like to see that turned around just for one or two script lines. I certainly don't feel that way but with all of the hitting on Nathan syndrome we've had it would be nice to see that Haley's recognized as being the goregous girl she is too.

i guess its just me, but im bored to death with the whole career thing for them. i mean it pretty stupid to have a fashion designer, a pro b-ball player, and now a "rock star" all living in the same small town. to me haley was tutor girl way before the singing thing, and i feel like mark just gave up on that career for her, and now she is a producer. if peyton was still in town you know that she wouldnt be a producer. just my opinion.

The lack of spoilers is frustrating at this point. It seems they are working really hard to keep things under wraps this season. Hopefully that means good shockers. Personally I would love to see Taylor back even for one episode. I would really like to see the Quinn, Taylor, Haley dynamic. As far as the tour goes I think it would be a huge mistake to bring Chris Keller back. I just see his presents as being inappropriate around Jamie. Plus the last time we saw Chris, Haley blew him off and Nathan treated him like his buddy. So at this point I feel like a visit from Chris would be unnecessary. The only time I would like to see him back would be for a few moments at the end of the series. I really hope the blast from Nathan’s past isn’t Nino or anything season six for that matter. That season was pretty boring as far as NH was concerned.

Easy. Just make a separate appointment with the teacher on another day.

Chris, Damien, Felix, Quentin and even Jason while he was a jackass he totally was into Haley (he slaped her ass remember?). All those guys made it pretty clear that Haley was GORGEOUS and that they would like to do more than just watch her. I'm pretty sure with the all tour/rockstar thing Haley will kinda be in Nathan's shoes and will be THE GIRL for all the guys. Plus look how SEXY she was in those filming pics we got for 7.12.

Maud&Danny · 11-09-2009, 12:34 AM

The girl who posted Lindsey picture just confirmed that she has brown hair (we couldn't really tell in the picture).

Maud, I wish I could see it that way. For Chris it was about music, Damien? Tainting Nathan over Basketball, Quentin? intimidating the new teacher, and Jason? Well Jason mentioned Granny panties after he was ticked that Mia performed so well.

The only time I felt the guy hitting on Haley was about Haley was with Felix. It's been what? 5 seasons ago?

That's why I posted that earlier. I don't even want anyone to hit on Haley. I'd just like to see it brought up to Nathan. I think with all of the "Nathan's so whatever you chose to place here with the women" over the years the Haley fans deserve to see that. JMO of course. Other's might not agree.
