Me too. I got the sense that Tywin actually likes her (or respects her intelligence and wilyness), and he'd probably trade Joffrey for Arya in a second.

When I saw the sword being worked on, my immediate thought was "Yeah, we are about to get some shirtless, sweaty Gendry!" So, I also appreciated the scene, is what I am saying.

I am fairly sure that book Littlefinger gets played by Tyrion with regard to setting up the marriage and then getting Harrenhal. He's pretty pissed about it in the book as well. It's just that in the book (SPOILERS), he then goes on to make Tyrion his bitch, while also getting Harrenhal and the Vale.

Umm, I don't think that Roose is at all cool with the fact that Ramsey killed his son. He is just waiting until his Frey wife gives him a new heir before he takes out Ramsey. Also, Roose is worse because he is so calculating. Ramsey is just a psycho.

I was pretty pleased when Jaime threw away the message. Cersei is basically the worst, and Jaime's continued love for her made me still sort of hate him even after he became more sympathetic. When he threw that message away, I was happy that he had finally seen Cersei for the crazy, horrible, person that she is, thus

I also thought this while reading the books, and I still almost threw my book in the fire after the (SPOILERS) Red Wedding. I mean talk about a sense of dread while reading the pages before that event (though it is possible my heartbreak had more to do with Arya's heartbreak). I probably won't throw anything at my TV

Ok, I am so hoping the liberties they take involve more Robb/Jaimie scenes. Although if Robb is going to continue to be this awesome, then I am going to be a serious wreck when a certain terrible thing happens in season 3/4.

I'm sorry but Daniel Gillies hair alone makes him one of the best actors going around TVD. Also, Elijah is allowed to have a smug expression on his face because he is perpetually cleaning up everyone else's messes.

Bonnie really needs a witch mentor to help with her mopeyness. We know that there are (were) awesome and powerful witches (Gloria, Jasmine Guy). Bonnie's cousin needs to come back and help her become a BAMF. Then she can go Dark Willow. Honestly, if she went Dark Willow now I wouldn't be so worried because Bonnie so

I have unabashedly loved Klaus since Joseph Morgan first walked onto our screens. Maybe it is because Elena had some terrible internal logic going on in Season 2 (I will allow Klaus to kill me so that I can save my friends and family, except Klaus also needs a vampire (Caroline) and a werewolf (Tyler) to kill as well,

So I haven't watched this episode yet, but I am not at all surprised that Elena showed no concern for Damon's well being. This is pretty standard for her, e.g. in The End of the Affair when Damon goes in to distract Klaus so Elena can whine to Stefan. Damon basically tells her to be quick because he has about 5 mins

I think the main problem was too much clothing while dancing. Also, too much Sage.

I thought the dancing was a nice callback to one of the best Vampire Diaries scenes ever: Damon and Matt's sister dancing around the mansion in their underwear when. Really I am ok with any time that Damon is dancing.

Well let's be real, Elena is not all that smart. Girl falls in love with mass murderers, and most of her plans fail horribly. I guess she hasn't learned anything from the whole Jenna getting vamped and sacrificed. Or maybe she has just forgotten Jenna. Totally understandable, what with so many of her parental figures

Does anyone else think that it is really stupid that no one has told Jeremy about the dangers of his magic ring? I just don't understand why Elena believes that people will be safer if she doesn't give them vital information.

So this is probably assuming too much realism, but Takeda might have finished with the two shots in the back to ensure the DA would press charges. One shot to the front of a known psycho who has previously threatened you at gun point probably does not get a murder charge because a jury would never find the defendant

Ugh Jack's stupidity! I got a bit excited for a minute that Declan was going to take things into his own hands and BURN THE HOODIE. Then he just essentially told Jack that he knew Jack was there and that the hoodie would give him away. And Jack STILL didn't burn the hoodie.

I must admit that I was a bit concerned Elijah was not living up to his badassness until that last scene. When he came back with Damon and those daggers, I was so pleased to see his inner badass coming through. Also, Klaus just breaks my heart.

Truth. I didn't watch any TV in college, so Netflix helped me catch up on all of the stuff I missed. Also, lots of random shows from the 90s that are weirdly engrossing (compared to reading for ConLaw).

I also enjoyed the cleavage shots, but mostly because I am hoping they foreshadow some sexy times for Tonkin and Grey Damon. That girl seriously needs to be making out with more hot guys.
