Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols Reunite?

Sophia Bush and her One Tree Hill costar Austin Nichols may have rekindled their romance.

The twosome was spotted catching a connecting flight in Atlanta, Georgia on Sunday (July 26) and took pictures with fans who spotted them together.

Sophia, 27, and Austin, 29, met through mutual friend Jake Gyllenhaal in mid-2005 and reportedly started dating in early 2006.

Since 2008, Austin has appeared in a recurring role as Julian Baker on One Tree Hill.

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols reuniting — YAY or NAY?

One Tree Hill: Looking For the Next Narrator

An interesting question was posted on E! Online last night. Now that Chad Michael Murray's left One Tree Hill, who will be the one responsible for giving those thought-provoking voiceovers that bookend each episode?

Right, because in the times I've watched a One Tree Hill episode, whether on the telly or off other means, it's always been Lucas who'll say all those stuff and make my heart bleed. (I'm a sappy guy in a way, and those words still strike deep, if you know what I mean.) Sure, others have taken over narrating duties in some episodes, and some have shared the honor in one episode, but for the most part it's still Lucas, Lucas, and lots of Lucas.

The mostly likely scenario, the folks at E! said, is that the remaining regular characters will take turns doing voiceovers for the upcoming season of OTH. But that in itself is speculation: they also admit that nothing's been sketched up yet. So, here goes my hyperactive mind, taking a chance on thinking about just that. Who should be the next narrator?

Of course, my mind goes towards Nathan. It's a natural. Besides, Nathan and Lucas and half-brothers, and the way the last season wrapped up, you can tell that the show will inevitably focus on him. A stint with the Charlotte Bobcats is a treasure trove of thoughts, even if that might gravitate towards locker room clichés or something.

Maybe Haley? By association, that could happen. If I'm to push the point, I should mention Jamie, too. I wonder what he'll say on the narration.

Brooke? Maybe not so much, unless that new model character comes in and makes life complicated.

Maybe one of the new characters? I imagine Haley's older sister would have some hand in this. And, since I mentioned Nathan's Bobcats stint, maybe his agent Clayton would work nicely, too. But yeah, I'm just dropping more and more names to sound sensible--when all I'm saying is, I think it'll be Nathan. But, shrug, I'll get this wrong. Who knows, maybe they'll let go of the idea altogether.

One Tree Hill Podcast: 'The Desperate Kingdom of Love'

We're back! Finally! We've got our season 2 DVDs for One Tree Hill, we've got Jackie's brand-spanking new apartment to record in, and we've got enough, erm "essential supplies" to get us through a whole spate of episodes -- so let's get to it!

For all the drama from last season, this first ep of Season 2 feels a bit disjointed to us. Oh, there's plenty of drama -- Dan's on his deathbed (the first time of many, we know...) Whitey has a brain tumor, Lucas and Keith have fled Tree Hill, Nathan and Haley got hitched, and Peyton and Brooke have made up... but this ep almost felt like it was marking time.

That's not to say we didn't find plenty to talk about -- there's Huey Lewis! Eeeee! And Deb completely loses it at Naley, which makes us mad. Plus, Keith makes lists, Brooke and Peyton burn Lucas' letter, Whitey dispenses wisdom (or dirty talk, as far as I'm concerned) and Naley is adorable. Listen in to see what we had to say! (Um, sorry about the echo -- we were podcasting in Jackie's gorgeous new place, which has high ceilings and next to no furniture, so our voices bounced. After enough booze, so did we!)

Satellite Pick of the Day

Once Sky Movies Indie, 10.00pm THIS is an amazing and wonderful little film which captured the excitement of the movie world when it was released a couple of years ago.
Glen Hansard (rocker with Irish band The Frames, and the guitarist of The Commitments) plays a Dublin busker who falls for a Czech girl who plays the piano.

After meeting, the pair start songwriting together, and very soon, more than sweet music is made. Wonderful, tiny budgeted romantic drama with one of the best soundtracks in years.

The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor Sky Movies Premiere, 8.00pm THE Diet Coke of Indiana Jones adventures returns for a third instalment of undead battling, with Brendan Fraser and John Hannah.

Although the trio of adventurers are slightly different than before, as Rachel Weisz opted out of the part of Fraser's wife Evie, this time played by Maria Bello, who is great apart from a wavering accent.

Anyway, the team (joined by their adolescent son Alex) are off to China to stop an evil emperor raising an undead army to conquer
the world.

My Breasts Could Kill Me Sky1, 9.00pm THE talented and charming Dawn Porter has steadily been rising up the presenting ranks, with her fascinating first-person documentaries over the last couple of years, and makes her Sky debut with this new show.

She takes a look at the issue of breast cancer, a very personal one for the journalist, as her mother died of the disease at the age of 36.

She undergoes a mammogram herself, and talks to patients and specialists in the field.

One Tree Hill E4, 9.00pm THE sixth series of One Tree Hill kicks off tonight and once again follows the eventful lives of a bunch of high-school kids in Tree Hill, a small but far from quiet town in North Carolina.

In the season premiere, Tree Hill residents make decisions that will change their lives forever. Lucas finally pursues his dream with the woman he loves, Brooke faces a reunion with her mother, Mouth makes a startling revelation, Nathan and Haleyencounter a ghost from their past and the news of Dan's accident takes an unexpected turn.

Property Snakes And Ladders More4, 9.00pm NIGEL and Jilly Gough think a run-down Victorian house in Henley holds the key to mortgage- free living; while in Diss, Norfolk, Alan and Susan Hutchinson bank their life savings on a burnt-out game keeper's lodgein the woods.

But Sarah Beeny quickly discovers that both are getting too personal and not developing the properties for the broadest possible market.

Will they take her advice and change their plans in time to save them from losing everything in a market that is falling fast?
