TV Guide has an exclusive on another Gilbert coming to Vampire Diaries – but with a twist: Lindsey Garrett (who you may recognize from the Revenge pilot) will play Samantha Gilbert. In addition to giving a few details on Samantha’s deal, TV Guide also confirms that EP316 will be titled 1912 (flashbacks!) and (presumably) air Thursday, February 23rd.

“You will learn what I allow you to learn.”
(Rebekah to Elena, Ordinary People)
You guys, our heads are spinning. There was so much mythology in this episode that it’s almost impossible to keep it all straight without taking notes and making charts. Fortunately, that’s the kind of thing we do around here, so we’ve got a breakdown for you of important things we learned from last night’s episode, Ordinary People (EP308). And we wouldn’t be us if we didn’t toss out a bunch of speculation, too. So join us in the comments with your own theories and questions!
WE WILL SPOIL WHAT REBEKAH ALLOWS US TO SPOIL. CONTINUE READING “ORDINARY PEOPLE ARE ANYTHING BUT.”

It’s almost flashback time again, and Claire Holt is giving tantalizing hints about what might be coming up on Ordinary People tonight. There’s a lot more than fancy hair going on in this episode, according to an interview with TVLine, we’re going to be learning quite a bit.
“You get to see how [Rebekah] interacts with her family and what it was like back then,” continues Holt, who says the episode sheds light on “how her relationship with her brothers and how her relationship with Klaus developed. [You'll see] why they became so close and why they are so loyal to each other.”
AOL TV was able to get some exclusive behind-the-scenes pictures from tonight’s episode. Here’s a little taste, head over to AOL TV to see the rest!

And here it is! The extended promo for next week’s Originals flashback, Ordinary People (EP308). If Ghost World was about hearts melting, we think next week may be about brains melting. Not that we weren’t freeze-framing and screencapping the hell out of that 20-second short promo earlier this evening. Nope.
