Lily starts ripping! Jo is having twins! Elena takes the cure! All in episode 20?!? Girl … Remember to rate, review, and share, brothers! Follow us on Inst...

Stefan has his humanity back and it is time for him to bring Caroline's back too! Luckily they have a whole B&B, a double agent, and an emotional letter from beyond the grave, so they've got this! Well of course it isn't that simple. Caroline throws a couple bombs at Damon and Elena while Alaric and Jo scout this B&B as a honeymoon venue and plan their wedding. Things don't go to plan but luckily Stefan finds a smoking gun in his own memories. Meanwhile, Bonnie is hunting down the ascend...

Lily is now in the modern world, and she’s already wreaking havoc. First of all - gasp - she is not the mother Damon remembers! And she doesn’t seem to want to be. Plus, we find out she knows Damon is withholding the cure from Elena. Oh, and one more small thing … she’s the one who turned Enzo. WHAT? Enzo tells the dramatic story to Sarah before giving up on whatever he was doing with her. Meanwhile, the humanity free brigade (Stefan and Caroline) spends the day doing karaoke and threatening to ...

It's a week of prison worlds, revenge, and sexiness this week! Steroline gets a dose of enemies to lovers, along with another lovely Caroline singing performance, Molotov cocktails, and Stefan working hard to drag Caroline right down to his level. But his level is sexy, so we are ok with it. Alaric and Enzo attempt to slow them down, but Alaric gets busy standing on Enzo's neck. Enzo reacts by changing his Sarah Salvatore approach (mostly giving up). Meanwhile, Elena, Damon, Bonnie, and Kai head...

Caroline’s humanity is officially off and, to everyone’s surprise, she seems relatively fine? The most scandalous thing she does is try a new hair look and suggest everyone attend the Whitmore rave. That is, until Stefan tries to use love to trigger her humanity - then it’s straight to violence, using inspired pawns like Sarah and Liam. Meanwhile, Sarah learns Enzo is a vampire and doesn't give a fuck. Bonnie struggles with being back in the real world, while Damon struggles with the news that h...

It's time to officially say goodbye to our dear Liz Forbes with a beautiful funeral, and all planned in one day. Caroline holds herself together suspiciously well, but we soon learn she has her own secret strategy. Damon works on the eulogy while taking breaks to give just horrible advice. Elena meanwhile is slaying, as she so rarely does lately. Alaric and Jo miss the funeral because she and Kai are both sick, which they think is due to the unconventional merge. That may be true for Kai, but Jo...

This week is all about the highs and lows of human emotion. From pure joy (Enzo hitting Matt with his car) to devastating despair (the death of Liz Forbes) and everything in between. On top of that, we have a Criminal Minds-esque investigation of - who else - Grayson Gilbert. Jeremy has a going away party before his departure “art school”. But most importantly, Stefan and Caroline FINALLY share a kiss (can you tell Grace is writing this synopsis?). Remember to rate, review, and share, brothers! ...

It’s Bonnie’s birthday this week! Which would be good news if she wasn’t still (yes STILL) stuck in the prison world. Elena and Damon plan to celebrate her birthday with cake, Caroline and Stefan attempt to save the real world Miss Cuddles from the forest where Caroline left here, and Bonnie has decided to make this her last birthday ever! With Kai’s help, and newfound empathy, Bonnie’s suicide plot doesn’t stay a secret and Jeremy attempts to give her a message of hope. Liv has decided the merg...

A lot of people sure do need some prayers this week! Liz is taken to the hospital after we learn that vampire blood doesn’t cure cancer after all - it makes it worse! Elena, who famously has been a pre-med student less than a year, does not hold back her medical and magical advice, even though she should. Kai proves useful to the debacle so Damon wakes him up - for the low low cost of a Liv/Luke merge. Liv, Luke, and Jo are not thrilled by this, but Joshua is fine! After some drama and shuffling...

Magic is flowing all over the place in and around Mystic Falls this week! With Kai full of magic courtesy of the travelers, he has to get a handle on all that power. Luckily, a vampire is perfect to test torture spells on. Meanwhile, Jo begins training for the merge, and while Liv and and Jo remain hopeful, pretty much everyone else is being realistic and sees the writing on the wall. But don’t worry, Luke has a plan to get out of the merge, he’ll just ask! In North Carolina, Caroline meets with...

It’s Christmas in Mystic Falls, so this is a fun episode that won’t make you cry! Just kidding! Though we see flashbacks of happier Christmases, this one is tough: Bonnie is still in the Prison World, Liv and Luke are working with Kai to kidnap Jo, Matt wants to kill Enzo (and he’s being kinda weird about it), and to top it all off, Liz has terminal cancer! But on the plus side, the anti magic border is gone! Granted, that’s because Kai now has all that magic, but we needed a win. Also Stefan gi...

It's a busy, Parker-centric week! Damon's compulsion of Alaric comes through and with the ascendant in hand, it seem like we are absolutely getting Bonnie back this week, right? Jeremy is not so optimistic. Liv helps Elena and Damon go to the prison world, but they do their favorite thing: dilly dally. The rest of the Parkers are worried going into the prison world will let Kai out, but no worries, he did that on his own! Meanwhile, Stefan uncovers the truth about Sarah, leading to fights with E...

In the prison world, Bonnie makes a useful discovery about Kai, but he has one more trick up his sleeve. Meanwhile, Elena takes Liam to the corn maze, and sets up Alaric and Jo, but the night takes a turn when Tyler nearly triggers his we...

This week, we finally learn why Damon calls May 10 1994 his personal hell - it involves an eclipse party and the return of a character we haven't seen since season one! Plus, it leads to yet another Stefan vs Damon debate. Elena visits Stefan in Savannah, GA - he takes her to a dive bar and shows her how to fake a human life, and she gets on her unearned grief high horse. Stefan retaliates by spilling the beans about her memory loss. Meanwhile in Mystic Falls, Tripp decides to let Matt in on a n...

It's the season 6 premiere and despite losing Damon and Bonnie four months ago, everyone seems to be working through their grief in a healthy way! Just kidding, can you imagine? Stefan has left town, and while this would normally be to chase a lead that is not the case this time. Elena has worked through her Bonnie grief but has a secret trick to dealing with the Damon grief, she doesn't!

It’s the season finale and it’s a big one! Bonnie actually has a plan to save almost everyone from the collapse of The Other Side, which everyone takes as a clue that dying is no big deal, and they all should feel free to do it. The list of dead people outnumbers the list of alive people, which should concern our heroes more than it does. The travelers, after 2000+ years of planning, are fooled by an open bar. Luckily, our team has a plan to explode the entire Grill - even all the chicken clubs!...

It is the penultimate episode, and Julie Plec was clearly feeling epic but not in a good way! We start with Stefan and Elena escaping traveler captivity, but not before Markos gets a whole lot of doppelgänger blood. That blood is quickly shared with the passengered townspeople in Mystic Falls, and the spell seems ready to go. With all witch magic and everyone's lives in jeopardy, people start to take desperate steps. Liv and Luke attempt to stop the spell with one quick murder, fail, and Damon t...

The travelers are finally ready to share their goal, but first they fulfill a promise to tell Enzo where Maggie is, but it is far from the answer Enzo wants. Enzo uses Liv and Luke to take Elena and Stefan hostage, and to be honest he does have the evidence to back it up. When Damon reveals his discovery that he actually met Maggie decades before, Enzo has a little bit of a meltdown but ends it with true icon behavior.
