E back again for the season 3 finale of The Vampire Diaries. Guys, “The Departed” was such a great episode; it’s going to be really hard to not type most of this in ALL CAPS. For real, this may be one of my favorite all time episodes…maybe of all shows…in all the history of the TV machine.

Hi all, I’m here again to discuss some TVD. This episode, “All My Children” was another example of why this show continues to be one of the most exciting hours of television each week. For realz.
We start, as we often do, with Elena waking up. She calls Stefan, who ignores her call. But, she leaves a voicemail about having to talk to him. She then calls Damon (second after Stefan – second place is just 1st loser! – not that Damon is a loser, but to Elena, he loses. Whatever, you all get what I’m saying). He does pick up (while still in bed with Rebekah) and is super pissy with her because his feelings are hurt, seriously. Elena decides to stop by right as Rebekah is leaving (Awkward City, but I’m not sure who’s the mayor…probably Elena). He’s still all snippy and short with her even when she tells him about Mama Original’s plan to do her children in. He soooo doesn’t care about the demise of all those folks.

Last week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries featured a very interesting development for some of our favorite new Mystic Falls residents, The Originals. Mama Original used Elena’s blood to put a spell on all the siblings, so if one dies, they all die. I think I speak for many when I say that I hope something goes wrong with this spell because I can’t stand the thought of Klaus, Elijah or Rebekah leaving. (I’m sure I will come to love Kol as well. Finn needs to stop being all into his mother. But I digress.) I recently had the chance to chat with Daniel Gillies, who plays Elijah, about the spell, Elijah’s love for Elena and his and Damon’s unlikely semi-friendship. Gillies also had some ideas as to where The Originals could reside besides Mystic Falls, and one of them involves a very interesting choice of attire.

E back again for another lovely TVD episode, “Dangerous Liaisons.” (Which Rachael Green claims is her favorite movie, but it’s actually Weekend at Bernie’s…Friends anyone?). Anyway, solid episode with some more info about the Originals.
We begin with Matt and Elena leaving the hospital. Alaric is there for observation. Also, Bonnie and negligent mother are both fine. Caroline is sad, but okay. There are still no suspects for this attempting to murder/murdering peeps situation. Matt and Elena part ways to go home, and Elena bumps into someone with her car. She gets out, and it’s just Rebekah threatening her with death. Luckily, Elijah is there and is awesome and stops her. Mama Original will not stand for any murders on her watch. Elijah then tells Elena that they have some catching up to do.

E back again for some more of this TVD business with “Bringing out the Dead.” (BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!!!) This episode is what makes the sauce awesome.
We start with a little brotherly brawl featuring Elijah and Klaus (refreshing change of pace from our usual dueling brothers). Klaus even removes the stake from one of the other brothers, Kol, and stakes Elijah. But, he doesn’t. He just puts it back in Kol after they decide to be in brotherly love again and destroy Stefan. Elijah also learns that Mikael is dead. Also, also, death has made Elijah even hotter.

The Vampire Diaries is back tonight, after what seemed like a very long week without it. When last we left our favorite residents of Mystic Falls, a certain original made his triumphant return (love you, Elijah!) What does this mean for Klaus? What about the others? I recently had the chance to chat with Joseph Morgan, who plays Klaus, one of my favorite supernatural beings. We talked about what’s coming up, why people root for Klaus, and he even asked me to establish the official Caroline/Klaus ‘shipper name. From searching, the consensus seems to be Carlaus (or Caralaus), so I’m going to go with that one. Edit: The common consensus seems to be Klaroline. You win, fans, you win. Whatever the name may be, I am excited about the possibility, even if they have a somewhat crazy history.

E back again for this week’s TVD with “The Ties that Bind” – now with extra parent issues!
We start with another Bonnie dream. Coffin. Klaus. Traps her in the coffin. She panics like whoa. Someone opens it. (At first, I’m like who is this? Did I forget a character? But, I didn’t – I’m too awesome for that). She tells Elena about the dream (and shows her the coffin stash); turns out it’s her mom that popped open the coffin in her dream.

E here again for some more of The Vampire Diaries – “Ordinary People.” After watching this episode, this title makes me feel sad in my sad place for the Originals Crew – they were just people, guys.
Okay, we start with Elena, Damon, and Alaric going back down to the Lockwood estate to figure out these cave drawings. Alaric has apparently really upped his game lately because he starts doing some interpreting. He’s able to read Niklaus, Rebekah, and Elijah on the wall (in Viking speak no less), oh snap. Then they all look at each other and are like, “What, the what?!”

Okay people, here we are. This is it. The Season 2 finale of The Vampire Diaries, “As I Lay Dying.”
We begin with Elena watching sort of creepily over Jeremy while he sleeps. (Okay, I’ll cut her some slack, everyone else is dead and stuff). She suddenly hears a noise and goes to scope it out. She finds Damon who really wants and needs her forgiveness. She can’t give it to him right now, he accepts this and leaves. Man, I love Damon. He goes off to have one last alcoholic beverage over at what is now the Bachelor Pad again. He then takes his ring off and starts to burn in the sun. Stefan comes in and they rumble a bit, but Damon is safe for now (minus the gross wolf bite situation).

Tonight is the big season finale of The Vampire Diaries and I, for one, am excited, nervous and scared all at the same time. What’s to come of Damon’s wolf bite? Where did Elijah and Klaus go? Is Klaus going to start his own species? Is there going to be another death? Only time will tell. But I recently had the chance to chat with Daniel Gillies, who plays Elijah, about the passionate fan base, Elijah’s enchantment with Elena, and what he’d like to see from Elijah in season three.
