We have been leading up the sacrifice all season, and it seems like it is actually going to happen? Despite plenty of attempts at planning, things continue to spiral for our team of heroes. Will Elena become a vampire? Will the curse be broken? Will Elijah be able to kill his own brother? Will Matt ever put down that damn gun? In this episode Grace and Stephanie celebrate and cry, because Julie Plec giveth but she also taketh away... Remember to rate, review, and share, brothers! Follow us on In...

It's finally time to get some real insight into the elusive Klaus! Elijah brings us back to the 1490s a lot this ep, where Grace and Stephanie theorize about Klaus' zodiac sign, see Katherine wield her power over even more men, and learn the (hysterical) truth about the curse of the sun and moon. Ricklaus is still busy, especially now that he has turned his attention to Jenna, oh no! We also get a Stefan and Damon in a fight that Stefan wins by a mile, a Chuck Bass mention, and proof that Kather...

It's the triumphant return of the Mystic Falls High Decade Dance - the costumes are better, the stakes are higher, and the enemies are meaner! Ricklaus causes some havoc but mostly just projects his insecurity. Meanwhile, the Sheriff contemplates what she did in a past life to deserve the world's most useless ally. We witness a major death, some major romance, and some major Mi-Fi spon. Finally, Elena takes matters into her own hands (as if she hasn't been running the show since the pilot...) Re...

Isobel is back, and she is determined to be the main character of this show if it kills her! Everyone is working hard to move their plans forward in alliances, but deception abounds. Most are straight up lying, some are leaving out details (like the location of the witch sacrifice), and one is simply not actually on any team. Grace and Stephanie also talk about a ... creative hiding space, reporting the local news, and how dope it is to carry blood in something other than a classic blood bag. An...

Katherine is back and wreaking havoc in the form of simply just existing near the Salvatores! Romance is in the air in Mystic Falls and so is deception - good thing Caroline has the opportunity to sing to us about it! The Martins hatch a flawed plan and the results are .... well, flawed, to say the least. And the episode ends with a return that no one saw coming ... Remember to rate, review, and share, brothers!

Get excited, we are all invited to a dinner party this week! Except Uncle John but he'll show up no matter what evidently. It's an uneventful dinner party with no ulterior motives... not. We learn the truth behind the mysterious dagger, get a new term for our TVD glossary ("ripper"), see an old friend who we have missed dearly, and Dr. Martin takes drastic measures. Meanwhile, Elena keeps reading those journals, but is not quite a fast enough reader and pays dearly for that. Plus, Katherine give...

This week, our werewolf chapter comes to a close (or does it?). The werwolves make dumb decision after dumb decision, such as assuming Tyler is smart, mentioning torture porn unprompted, hiding from Elijah under a JACKET, and, of course, underestimating Elena Gilbert. John continues his quest to become the most hated man in Mystic Falls and Elena and Stefan are hornier than ever at the Gilbert lake house. Finally, the gang learns a bombshell piece of information that Elena has known for weeks. R...

The daddy issues are just coming from the single worst dad this episode, but it's not just his daughter who has issues with him! Hating on John Gilbert is always good, but Grace and Stephanie also talk "hero hair", classic werewolf names, torture strategy, and the aggressive nature of seeing a gun on this show. Plus, a whole lot of Tyler dropping bombs and changing others' plans despite having simply no idea what is going on. Remember to rate, review, and share brothers! Follow us on Instagram @...

This week it is the midseason finale AND the full moon! It is time for Tyler's first transition and he is stressed, for good reason it turns out.

Meanwhile, Stefan is trapped in the tomb, Elena is trapped in her house, and Elijah has an offer that Elena may not be able to refuse. And since it's a midseason finale, you know we h...

Everyone has a job, except Elena who everyone expects to just sit at home, good luck with that! But of course, Katherine has her own plans, starting with actually straightening her hair before pretending to be Elena this time.
