** SPOILERS. ALL RIGHTS TO RESPECTIVE OWNERS **

Seems cheesy/tacky so far. But enjoyable. At least it's not stupid/trying to be something it's not.

I want to slap Caroline. "Druggies are the biggest attention whores."

Damon and Stephen have a slightly cliché brotherly relationship... but I like the complexity of the relationship. It's kind of Jekyll and Hyde-ish.

When it comes to vampire stories, I'm very narrow minded because most I've seen are cliché or expected stories, have lousy character development, etc. People have labelled and casted, recasted and reinvented vampire stories, original or not. So, I'm usually 1001% AGAINST watching vampire based stories, and it better have a GOOD premise. Otherwise I’ll stop playing the show or movie before it even begins.

It's a bit of a trip to know that the parents know about vampires. They're trying to hunt them I think.

It's a lot better than Twilight, let me tell you. THANK GOD!!!!

Turns out Bonnie might be psychic after all, or have telekinesis.

"People are born, they grow old, and die."

"It's a brave new world friend," As Claude says in Heroes season 1.

I like the difference in stereotypes. Crosses are decorative. HA!

Wooooaaah! Katherine turned Stephen into a vampire. And when Elena looks things up on Stephen, it's crazy. There's a giant, "What is this?!?!?" moment. Stephen trying out for football seems stupid/out of character.

I like that Elena is not like Bella in Twilight, all submissive and annoying.

So far, it's NOT terrible.

DAMN. Elena mentions Katherine, and Damon leaves! When Damon volunteers to wipe Jeremy's memory, Elena's glad to see him for the first time. Turns out Damon isn't a total psycho after all. There's hints of Damon liking Elena, but Elena doesn't seem to feel the same way.

My face turned into a mix of o.O and ;-( and :-/ because Damon just kissed Elena. It's somewhat creepy that Damon took Elena to Georgia. All out of the blue. I thought Lexie's widower would off Damon right then and there.

Damn is this flip floppage ANNOYING! "Yes, no. Yes, no." with Stephen and Elena.

Bonnie having Blair Witch Project type dreams. hahahaha!

The vanishing necklace post seance is spooky. Elena seeing the person cross the hall is creepy, especially in a big house. And it turns out Emily is possessing Bonnie.

Ultimate lesson for things like this: You can’t pay for peace of mind. And it reminds me of something from Heroes season 1," The world isn't small. You are. And fate can find you anywhere."

Logan NOT being invited in is fucking weird. Logan's a dumbass. "Hey, you got no self-control," to get Jenna to invite him in.

As Jimmy Dore said," Good luck with that!"

It is like Heroes Season 1 with vampires: They're all around us. In the shadows, in the light.

"Firsthand diaries of the Civil War are like porn for a history teacher." Not the image Jeremy needs, thanks Mr. Saltzman.

So, we take a dark turn to reality where Stephen is being tortured Gitmo Abu Ghraib style. And Stephen drank Elena's blood. Didn't see that coming.

Shit.... Jeremy's girl is a vampire too!

So, what's in the journal? Apparently, something serious. Like a game changer.

Isobel is HILARIOUS. "You ask a lot of questions." YAH! If you were adopted and didn't know til 17 or 18 years LATER, you would too.

It's interesting to see how this all clicks over time.

SO, what did Bonnie do? No wonder Bonnie is stressed. She’s hatching all these schemes and plans, all these secrets.

Could stand to be less soap opera like.

7.00/10.00 $ USD.
