What a mid-season finale! I was in shock at the end! Deep breaths people, deep breaths. Let’s get down to the meat and potatoes of this cliff-hanging episode! We begin with Damon punching the wall of his cell. He was trying to escape and after a few punches, picking up a bullet that Aaron dropped, a few kicks and sparks …

Phil’s going to Canada! Well, not really but last year Phil got an elliptical machine for Christmas and promised to walk the distance from his house to Canada in one year, and if he didn’t Claire got to move the elliptical machine in the garage. Now that it’s Christmas Eve he has 10 miles to go and he is determined …

Holy Salvatore! We learned a lot about Damon’s dark past (and present) in this episode and man was I floored. Stefan and Katherine! Why am I shipping them now? After their steamy scene I am sold on them being together. We have a lot to cover so let’s get down to it! It began with a flashback to 1953 and …

It’s the morning of the big football game and Coach Cam is excited and superstitious. He doesn’t want to say the word “game,” he will only spell it and he taps each doorway with the football several times. Mitch thought his methods were a little crazy but Cam didn’t care because it worked. This game was important because if they …

Wow! Although this episode didn’t seem action packed, a lot happened! Damon, Katherine, and Jesse! I am very unhappy about Jesse’s outcome. Let’s get down to the nitty gritty shall we? We begin with Dr. Maxfield giving Jesse a bag of “undiluted Augustine blood” for the first time through an IV. Jesse was super strong and broke free of the …

Doppelgangers galore! Amara, Elena, and Katherine in the same scene! Silas and Stefan attacking each other! To quote Damon from this episode, “I’ve got Doppelgangers coming out of my ears!” The acting in the episode was superb and I have to say the night belonged to Paul Wesley. Let’s get down to it! We begin with Silas at a bus …

Happy 20th anniversary Claire and Phil! Hailey, Alex, and Luke stomped loudly up the stairs to bring their parents breakfast in bed (they didn’t want a repeat of the time walked in on them having a frisky moment). Phil was excited because he planned to surprise Claire by singing to her with an all-Dad band called The Dad Beats (I love …

This week I have to start off by saying that Nina Dobrev works hard for her money! She does a great job as Elena and Katherine and now she has to play Amara too! Playing three characters on the same show has got to be tiring, so I’d like to give a big shout out to Nina for being so …

Mother of Vamps! Every week we are loaded with information and surprise twists and I love it! Let’s get down to it! We begin with Dr. Maxfield studying Jesse (after he made him into a vampire last week).
