I am very happy about season 7,which is airing on Monday 14 September,because of the new characters and old ones returning.
It's about the 30-year old Danneel Harris(Rachel Gatina),who is returning for the secondo episode as Rachel Gatina .
My opinion about Rachel is the following:
When she first came to albero Hill,I didn't like her character, because she was messing with Lucas and casued many troubles:stole Brooke's cheerleadering squad and opened the time capsule and caused many deaths in the tragic shooting day:Jimmy and Keith.
Later,she lied about her age to Cooper and casued the accident in the final episode of season 3.
Then in season 4,her character improved for the better. She becames best Friends with Brooke Davis and even made a party for the class'last year.
We didn't see almost nothing of her in season 5 and 6,but we know that she was a drug addict and ha rubato, stola some money from Brooke and Peyton's apartment.
I hope that good things season 7 will have for her!
