Chad Michael Murray joins the cast of Southland

I've been sick for like a month and as soon as I get better I come back to the awesome news that Chad Michael Murray will be joining the cast of Southland.

Teen Drama fans unite because Lucas Scott (One Tree Hill) and Ryan Atwood (The O.C) will finally be on the same show. Murray will play a character called Dave Mendoza, he is a good cop but sometimes can be unpredictable and apparently his path will cross with Benjamin McKenzie's character officer Ben Sherman and his off duty antics will not be the best influence on him.

As a OTH fan I cannot wait to see CMM back on our screens and as a Southland fan I cannot wait to see how he will influence  goody two shoes Ben Sherman (McKenzie)

A little Tid bit of information: The role of Ryan Atwood The O.C's lead character was offered to Murray first but he turned it down to play Lucas Scott, one of the main characters in One Tree Hill.So the role was given to McKenzie instead.

Are you guys happy that CMM is returning to our screens?
Do you think The O.C would be different if CMM took the role of Ryan Atwood instead of Benjamin McKenzie?
