Ah, high school. A place of power dynamics between cruel teachers and unruly students, where tensions over alliances and over lost loves run high. And, of course, at Mystic Falls High, it’s an even more heightened reality than a regular high school — one where the stand-in teacher Rebekah can compel her would-be pupils into revealing whatever she wants them to. After School Special lived up to its name, but instead of dealing with teen pregnancy or the dangers of drugs (you’ll jump off the school roof!), it was a lesson in truth, lies, and the power of both to hurt. 

SPOILERS! CONTINUE READING “THE PAINFUL TRUTH.”

THIS POST IS A STICKY. KEEP SCROLLING FOR NEW POSTS.

SHORT PROMO FOR CATCH ME IF YOU CAN (EP411)

EXTENDED PROMO FOR CATCH ME IF YOU CAN (EP411)

COMPLETE SONGLIST FOR AFTER SCHOOL SPECIAL (EP410)

Welcome back, Vampire Diaries fans! We hope you all took time over the hiatus to steel your nerves for the return of the show, because we all know the writers take great delight in toying with our emotions. Tonight’s episode is all about Jeremy’s arms. Okay, maybe there’s some other stuff (such as Bonnie getting over the shock with the rest of us that her dad actually exists, and Rebekah catching up on all the gossip since she got daggered. Again), but Jeremy’s arms do feature heavily.

Once you’ve seen the episode and shaken yourself back to reality, swing by here to rate the new episode of The Vampire Diaries. All discussion about the episode is welcomed and encouraged in the comments of this post.

Remember, some parts of Canada watch the show an hour earlier, so beware of spoilers and avoid the comments if you haven’t seen the episode yet.

Quick guide to the poll options: In Mystic Falls, students get grades for stake sharpening and brewing vervain tea… because they’re rarely in school.
5 grades = LOVE, 1 grade = MEH.

News of The Originals spinoff has caused quite a sensation in the fandom. Everyone is asking questions about how it will work and above all, who we might see on it.

Entertainment Weekly interviewed Julie Plec on the topic, and she not only gives some details about the show’s mysterious new character, Marcel, she also has a few things to say about the possibility of guest stars that will have Elijah fans doing cartwheels in the aisles.

Would there be a role for Elijah (Daniel Gillies) in the spinoff, because there needs to be.

[Plec] Oh, in the world of Julie Plec [Laughs] and her obsession with Daniel Gillies, there is always a role for Elijah. It’s only a matter of whether in Daniel Gillies’ world there is an interest in having a job with Julie Plec. But I can hope the answer is yes.

When asked about the role of Rebekah, and whether we might be seeing Claire Holt in New Orleans, Julie allows for the possibility but does point out that Rebekah is very much in the middle of things on TVD right now, not to mention extremely put out with Klaus. Fortunately for Rebekah fans, Entertainment Weekly also spoke with Claire Holt recently, and she sheds a little more light (spoilers!) on what Rebekah’s up to in tomorrow night’s episode.

“Rebekah gathers Stefan, Elena, and Caroline in the high school and she basically psychologically tortures them,” Holt says. “She questions them about the tattoo, and the cure, and Stefan and Elena’s relationship, and it brings some uncomfortable truths to light. It’s definitely going to be much more difficult for Caroline, Elena, and Stefan than it is for Rebekah.”
