Dan Scott has by far my favorite story arc of any character from any show ever. Most people hate him, they don't understand my love for him, but I love absolutely love him so much. At the start, he is meant to be the villain. He abandoned Lucas, he is mean to Nathan, he is a bad husband, etc. But as the show went on, Dan goes on to be the hero. His entire family hates him, but still Dan does everything for his family. His friendship with Jamie was so adorable and the fact that he saved Jamie after being kidnapped really showed Dan as the hero. Everyone hates Dan for killing Keith, but Dan was just a very misunderstood individual. I'm glad in the end he got to die with his family by his side, as the true hero he was. His story arc was just incredible and for a teenage drama show about basketball, it truly amazed me how Dan Scott developed as a character. People don't get it, but Dan Scott is one of the best characters to ever exist. He is not a villain, he is a misunderstood hero.
