This being the CW, you just know there's a twin somewhere there

21. You're fine (legally speaking)

It would have made more sense had it been stated when Tessa mentioned the college fund. Maybe.

Say what you will about Joan, but she really knows how to decorate a bedroom

I also think it's due to the fact that the two show-runners have found a way to completely elevate the material, cause not all book series adapted to TV have been able to do what TVD is now doing so well (@Carrie Raisler's first paragaph)

I feel that after two seasons of cut-throat plotting, I should be "expecting the unexpected"… but I was wtfing this entire episode. 
That sight gag at the end with Klaus and Stefan next to the coffins actually being a u-haul truck or whatever? I mean.. wtf

There's a gay couple here? Gossip!

The answer is 42

would that this desk were a Nielsen ratings box

Maybe it's Clark Stevenson. He did win sophomore winter queen

@avclub-8d21481602b5ba3b34a3b6861dbde2e1:disqus  How is it that this show can make "blood rape" be one of the most innocuous parts of your recap?

"I was convinced Amanda Tanner was having another seizure… or there was a fight"

How'd you get italics, @Dikachu?

Next week's judges
are Kenny Ortega and Katie Holmes? WHY, NIGEL LYTHGOE, WHY?!

To Brandon's O Fortuna, I add Jeanine's tango solo. It's what won her the competition

I lover her too. I'm just curious about her contract with ABC for Dancing with the stars. Is it like a Louis Van Amstel thing where they can be in both shows on a limited run?

All-Stars
Did Nigel say that the All-Stars are coming in as permanent partners to the top 10?

And is Lena Olin the actual wife to Ken Olin? I always wondered, never checked

what about the "theatrical ballroom" couple?! Those lifts were craaaaazy

Actually, I thought Oliver's review this week was spot-on. It referred to both technical and entertainment factors of the dances/show to offer critiques or praises, when other times he has focused too much on just one of the two.
