Lol.

If this show does THAT to you, I'd probably put the remote down and slowly walk away.

I believe Aida is set up as Madame Hydra.

Your analysis was funny but I can't think of any other way they could have portrayed this women heroically without the indirect conclusion of saving the white folk. You could say it for every show with that sort of cast imbalance.

I think Bonnie ended up being one of the strongest parts of the show even though she didn't start that way 8 years ago.

Not a productive conversation-starter. Tsk.

I believe you replied to the wrong person.

Too much free time, which incidentally is the explanation for much of what one reads on the internet.

I don't understand. Aren't we thinking, talking, and theorizing about the show's plot points in these comments? Granted YOU are not, but look how many comments there are debating plot points.

Or equal opportunity. Everybody should have the chance to be a devil!

It will likely end up in the top 50 comic titles every month based on Bendis's sales records, which means about 100,000 will read it when counting sales, digital, and pirated sources. Which is very good for a comic these days.

I think the reason for the season breaks is more because of sweeps periods (which don't get me wrong, are outdated themselves and I'm not sure why they can't just look at a year long period). If your sweeps periods are November, February, and May, and let's say you ALSO need new episodes in September/October which is…

Wasn't that part of why he made the deal with Rayna? He's been wanting to restore the town for a while now. They jumped a bit ahead but I can see him and his girlfriend running the last vampires out.

I don't think Kevin Smith is connected with the show, is he?

EVERY boy, or every boy who did ya wrong?

The damn thing is available for free as a PDF download. Schools could probably print out some nice copies and keep the money away from the Author's Estate. Ain't nobody gonna say the Lutherans need to take it down:

Hm, I agree the quality has declined since the show's early years, but I don't think everything is revolving around Elena. Damon's story is, sure, but the vampire hunter stuff, Matt's story, and the Enzo/Armory stuff does not have Elena as the driving force. I agree Caroline's character is not getting enough…

I wouldn't mind seeing a scene like they had in How to Get Away With Murder, where we see Alicia sitting down in front of a bedroom mirror, wiping off her makeup, and then finally taking off that wig! Maybe the final episode :P

Originals ratings were good this week and regularly comes in just a tenth below Vampire Diaries. It is probably getting renewed.

Originals matched Vampire Diaries this week in the all-important demo. It regularly matches or beats Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Jane the Virgin so it may not be the lowest rated CW show. Perhaps if going by total viewers but the demo rating is much more important.
