Nerdophiles Catch Up With… The Vampire Diaries
I swear that I will marry the person who makes a CliffNotes version of the nonsense on this show because these season catch ups are brutal and I selectively repressed most of last season’s convoluted mythology culminating in Elena’s unceremonious departure. It’s a glorious trainwreck and I can’t look away. […]

Mid-Season Predictions for The Vampire Diaries
The gang’s all here – er, well, almost. We left the Mystic Falls crew mid-season with Bonnie still trapped on The Other Side, Kai taking Elena hostage, and the anti-magic border around town disintegrating. We also left Elena without her memories of Damon, but with some sort of indication that […]

Nerdophiles Catch Up With… The Vampire Diaries
[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lx_OePXzh0] The Vampire Diaries is starting up again on October 2nd! To be honest, I’ve been dreading this premiere- the show has come so far from its initial meet-cute trope with a supernatural twist premise, turning into something so convoluted that I can barely keep up with it. Last season […]
The Vampire Diaries: The Originals Recap
This is us, the original family. Now, we remain together, always. And forever. What a refreshing episode! Was the major plot twist a little weird? Yes. But, was I glad to be away from Elena and her drama life? Also yes. So, if you weren’t aware, this episode was basically […]
The Vampire Diaries: Pictures of You Recap
It’s time for prom! Well, like most events in Mystic Falls, it’s not complete without something crazy going down. I’m not going to lie, I’m getting really really bored with the whole “emotionless” Elena. Like I can’t actually imagine her enjoying herself without emotions. She’s just walking around because no […]

So Vampire Diaries got back last week with a familiar face. Elijah! Our favorite older brother original is back and he’s been busy. We quickly find out that Elena and Rebekah’s search has bore fruit and they are in the right city to find Katherine. Finding her also leads to […]
The Vampire Diaries: Because The Night Recap
This week on TVD, Lexi returns! Not really, but Arielle Kebbel does make a reappearance as Lexi in the late 1970’s, trying to help out Damon while he goes on a bender in New York. As the episode starts, a pan over Manhattan reminds me more of Gossip Girl than […]
