TV Guide sits down with Joseph Morgan to discuss what the arrival of big bad vampire hunter Connor (Todd Williams, introduced in last night’s episode) means for Klaus and whether the Original sibling showdown that happened between Klaus and Rebekah in the premiere will have long term repercussions.
“Season 4 will … see that bond tested more than it’s ever been,” Morgan told us on the Atlanta set of the CW series. “He goes a little further than he’s ever gone and [as usual] Klaus likes to ruin everything for himself and push people away.”

The Insider caught up with Julie Plec for an excellent and lengthy discussion about tonight’s new episode, Memorial, and the events and fallout of last week’s Season 4 premiere, Growing Pains. In addition to touching on the big mystery set up in last week’s final moments and Elena’s journey as a newbie vampire, Plec also explains why tonight’s Memorial acts as a Season 3 finale:
Insider.com: Earlier you mentioned that you were slow playing these first few episodes. Does that allow these characters, whose lives whoosh by, to take stock of everything that’s happened?
Julie: For sure. I look at episode two in my own special way as the finale of last season’s journey. We never got a chance to mourn, we never got a chance to properly grieve Alaric. In a way, our characters are never given the opportunity to sit and think about the terrible things that happen to them. This is a way of saying to the audience, we are allowing ourselves this moment to grieve. We are putting this away and moving forward. In many ways, episode three is truly the launch of season three [four? - V.] in that we’re really beginning a new chapter. Episode one and two are almost like a nice bow wrapped on end of season three.

Previously on The Vampire Diaries, everything was going wrong for everyone all at once. Pretty much every character on the show had something go horribly wrong during this episode, and it’s safe to say that Growing Pains kicked off Season 4 with a bang. Need to brush up on the details before tuning in tomorrow night? We’ve got you covered with recaps galore!
YOOHOO! ANYBODY HOME? BIG BAD SPOILERS OUT HERE.

Our show is back! And in true Vampire Diaries form, this was an episode packed to the brim — dealing with last season’s cliffhangers, introducing a baddie in Mystic Falls, and transitioning into this new era for Elena.
SPOILERS! CONTINUE READING “IN TRANSITION.”

We’re all still reeling from last night’s premiere, Growing Pains (EP401), but that doesn’t mean the interviews, teasers, and general flood of coverage has stopped. So how about some morning reading to answer some questions – and, undoubtedly, create plenty of new questions? Fair warning: You should assume that these are all spoilery through last night’s episode, and there are some hints about the rest of the season as well. Enjoy, and hit the comments with your theories about what’s going on!

THIS POST IS A STICKY. KEEP SCROLLING FOR NEW POSTS.
SHORT PROMO FOR MEMORIAL (EP402)
EXTENDED PROMO FOR MEMORIAL (EP402)
COMPLETE SONGLIST FOR GROWING PAINS (EP401)
Long time, no see, Vampire Diaries fans! That was one long summer hiatus, but we survived it, and we’re ready for a brand new episode. So settle down (but don’t get too comfortable, as you’re bound to be on the edge of your seats before the end) and get ready to find out just what the Fates have in store for Elena and the rest of the gang.
Once you’ve seen it and shaken yourself back to reality, swing by here to rate the new episode of The Vampire Diaries. Because the forums are no more, all discussion about the episode is welcomed and encouraged in the comments of this post. Just remember, beware of spoilers if you haven’t seen the episode yet!
As we mentioned earlier, we’re looking for good topics of discussion to feature on the blog. If you’ve got any ideas, be sure to post them in the comments on the TONIGHT post.
Quick guide to the poll options: Everyone likes to document how their height changes as they grow. We figure a ruler will be big enough for Elena to measure those sharp, new fangs she’ll be sporting! 5 rulers = LOVE, 1 ruler = MEH.

HEY LOOK! WE MADE IT! Our long national nightmare is over: The Vampire Diaries returns for season four in just a few hours with Growing Pains (EP401), airing on the CW at 8/7c. Since we no longer have a forum for discussion, please feel free to talk about your excitement about the premiere in the comments here, and then discuss the episode itself in the reaction poll post tonight! We’re also looking for good discussion topics to feature here on the blog, so please let us know your ideas for those – or any other feedback about what you’d like to see on the site this season in general – in the comments. And while we’re on the topic, a reminder: The comments are a much happier place if everyone remains civil. Negative opinions of aspects of the show itself are fine; personal insults or anything denigrating anyone nonfictional (actors, writers, other fans, etc.) are not acceptable.
Prepare Yourself for Growing Pains:
