Fresh on the heels of the boring Twilight craze, and the well-deserved True Blood phase, CW is offering up its latest in teen dramas. Apparently, this show drew 5 million viewers its first night. That’s probably due to Twilight-hype. I can’t stand Twilight. It sucks ass. I couldn’t read the books, but read a review from Dan Bergstein on those Stephanie Meyer books. It was very entertaining. The movie kind of sucked as well.
This is the situation, as I’ve divined it using my psychic powers. The Fox network saw that Twilight was really working well. Wow, maybe vamps are cool again, said one exec. Another said, maybe not, remember Forever Knight. Then, everyone went bonkers for True Blood. The same exec said it confirmed his theory that vamps are back in, notably teen vamps, not crazy sex-addicted vamps. One exec mentioned Teen Wolf, the other slapped him on the back of the head.
So, we need to find a teen vampire series. Wait, my daughter used to read some vampire thingie called The Vampire Diaries in the 90s. Let’s pressure L. J. Smith to write some sequels as an added incentive. That will make it cool!
Warning: spoilers ahead
I’ll admit that the whole Petrova doppelganger is somewhat interesting, but the whole Sun/Moon curse thing that was laid onto them by some Shaman is idiotic. That and the fact that some original vampires are around, messing about. Elijah isn’t impressive as an original. He’s a bit of letdown, to be honest. Smith should have taken some inspiration in vampire fiction and used some of those concepts in his own story.

Katherine briefs Klaus on what’s going on. He compels her to reveal more. He makes her stab herself. He wants her to stab herself over and over again.
Elena is signing the papers so that the Salvatore house in her name now. Like a 12-year old, she makes Damon grovel a bit.
The Sheriff knows that the Salvatores are vampires.
Klaus-as-Ric teaches a class and sees Elena. Bonnie hasn’t told anyone that harnessing 100 witches might kill her.
A girl was compelled by Klaus to give a message to Elena. Bonnie tells everyone that she can take care of Klaus. Klaus-as-Ric sees Bonnie in action. Klaus-as-Ric tells Maddox that they need to kill the witch.
I need you to take out witch-bitch.
Klaus-as-Ric
Maddox says that using all of that power will kill Bonnie. Maddox says that he should keep attacking Bonnie until she uses up her power. Maddox has a spell to help protect Ric’s body as long as possible.
Jeremy wants to give his ring to Bonnie. It’s the night of a 60s themed dance. Everyone is in attendance. Jeremy tells Stefan that using her power might kill Bonnie.
Some compelled dudes give Jeremy a beating. It draws the Salvatores. Stefan says that it’s a distraction. They have been compelled. Klaus-as-Ric comes to get Elena and Bonnie. He starts going after Bonnie to draw out her power. It looks like Bonnie dies from going after Klaus-as-Ric. So Bonnie took the ring and wakes up from death.
Elena takes the dagger out of Elijah to wake him up from his torpor.
