This show blows my fucking mind.

Damon Won't Die
Or else 1/3 of the viewership will fucking revolt.

Holy Shit Balls, WirelessToyz
Used to work at that place…

Folivia = Phonetic Pronunciation of Fauxlivia, right?
Sorry for the nitpick, but that jumped out at me as being a nice nod to us internetdwellers and our nicknames. Walternate had been used before, but I don't remember a character ever referring to the Other Olivia as "Fauxlivia."

The Mayor's Gofer in the Second Mayor's Office Skit WAS Portland's Mayor
Sam Adams (Yes, our mayor's name is Sam Adams. Plus, he's both gay AND has had a pretty racy rentboy scandal at the beginning of his term) showing up in this episode was pretty damn funny for me.

This Show Is My Biggest Guilty Pleasure
But at this point I've moved past the shame and have begun espousing its virtues to absolutely anyone who'll pay attention beyond "Seriously, The Vampire Diaries is really fucking good!"

It looked to me like the blood on the wall was most definitely from the head Will had just put a bullet through…big difference between your own blood on your own shirt and someone else's brain matter ending up on the wall of your apartment.

After watching Rubicon…
this episode felt like a bit of a let down. That thought immediately led me to perk up. 'Cause Rubicon has had 9 episodes worth of shit to get through to set up tonights near-perfect episode 10, and Boardwalk Empire has had two, with the pilot arguably handicapping the two or three episodes…

I must've completely blanked out on that part…when did lil' Stevie drop the N-word?
