Bethany Joy Galeotti of "One Tree Hill" on The CW

Q: With filming now completed on the final season of "One Tree Hill,” how was it to watch your co-stars leave one by one as they finished their work?

A: Everyone sort of said goodbye on a staggered schedule, and we also said goodbye to the sets that way. We'd say goodbye to Karen's Cafe, but I'd still be shooting (on other sets) for another week. I was grateful for that, because that way, it wasn't just one giant thing all at once. I was able to come to terms with stuff more.

Q: What do you think of getting the opportunity for a final season, and to be able to plan the farewell?

A: I've always been really proud that we were able to last this long. There were so many perfect endings to the show, if you go back and watch, but I'm glad that we never actually had to wrap it up until this year.

Q: Haley went through a lot over the nine seasons of the show, from becoming a music star to becoming a parent ... twice. How do you reflect now on the character arc you had?

A: I always say that's one of the great things about being in an ensemble piece. Sometimes you're really front and center, and sometimes you get to facilitate other people's story lines. When you are front and center, you really can stretch your muscles and enjoy the craft. And when you're on the back burner, you have a lot of free time, and you're not so completely immersed in work. You can kind of come and go.
