Stefan knows what he did though, he's not denying what he did or making excuses. He can't fix what he's done, but he's decided he wants to use what's left of his life to try to make things better and now that he's no longer a vampire I'd be shocked if he killed someone in the future (but could easily see Damon ending…

The show just doesn't remember it's own history. I thought Emily Bennett arrived in Mystic Falls in 1864 with Katherine, so prior to that I didn't think the family was in Mystic Falls at all but now they were suddenly there 100 years earlier.

As much as I would love to see character growth, TVD really just doesn't seem to like it, and Caroline along with most of the cast haven't changed their mentalities. I remember back in Season 4 when Stefan & Caroline were talking and they had some line about how Klaus wasn't really any different than them, and was…

I'll just start by saying I don't hate Stefan the way a lot of other people do. I do not believe that Stefan has really done anything worse than Damon, but I do think Stefan feels a lot of guilt for his actions and will have a hard time coping and possibly will sacrifice himself in the end. If Caroline hadn't shown…

I assumed that would have been later on, after Enzo was turned into a vampire - not back in the 1700s before he was even born.

Point 5: It makes sense to me that Caroline does this, because she doesn't hold herself accountable for the deaths she's caused or the people she's murdered either. Caroline always just looks at the positives of how being a vampire improved her life, but she has never has been able to accept that she's a mass murderer…

I think Stefan hasn't been able to process what's happened, but I think he knows that a vampire planning to marry a human just won't work on any sort of long-term basis, and I think Caroline is still in denial about that. Their relationship has never, at least to me, felt like something that could last regardless of…

I watched the pilot, not really knowing what to expect, and I think this show may just not be for me. I wasn't able to really get into it and at the pace of the episode didn't work for me.

This show really does suck me in, because I always just want to know what happens next.

I'm still kind of undecided about the show, but I think the murder mystery is what's really keeping my interest.

I have a bit of a hard time with the individual characters, and that could be because I didn't read the book series, but I think I'm following the plot a lot better than I did at the start of the show.

I seriously doubt Alice is dead.

I expect that to be the case as well.

I think Martin had to go first. I really wanted the character to be killed off rather than stay past his expiration date. I think we'll work towards killing off Reynard next.

I think this show is kind of lost and doesn't know what direction to really move in a lot of the time.

Jaha actually worked best for me as a character when he was wandering the desert looking for the City of Light and Murphy was there to call him out on how crazy he sounded.

I didn't read it as him being a love interest for her, but that he knows she killed the challenger and something will come of that later.

I wondered if they were going to stick her in the Lazarus Pit again for a minute. I was annoyed by that.

I was not a fan of going to 1776, it just didn't work for me and I think I often prefer episodes that don't have real people in them (like Eliott Ness or George Washington).

I liked this episode okay. I did agree with Mack that Coulson was being too pushy and I think they probably should have just left her alone. Now she's going to die and her brain is going to stuck in a simulation and I'm not sure if that's what she really wanted.
