One Tree Hill was an American TV series about two half-brothers, their rivalry, and their love for basketball. The show ran for nine seasons from 2003 to 2012.

The opening credits were designed using ITC Binary for the actors' first names and Impact for their last names, all in lowercase letters. These two fonts were also used to create the show’s logo, with the three words alternating between Impact and ITC Binary. The bold version of Optima was used in all other credits as well as in the end credits.

Not all seasons included opening credits, so the creators of the show designed only a title card where all the words of the logo were written in Impact with the text appearing distressed or damaged.
