hahaha funny pic. Matt, I loved you in this episode..such a good episode this was.

I tried to watch this again but my stupid cable screwed up. Grrr.

I think Matt only saw Vickie because she was his sister and she was trying to reach out to him. Bonnie brought him back by medical means not a magic spell to reverse his death. Jer was dead when she had the witches help bring him back. They warned her there would be consequences hence the “I see dead people” abilities. That’s how I took it. What I don’t get though is why Jer was never able to see his parents again. Shouldn’t they have warned him that Elena was gravely ill and Meredith gave her vamp blood? Maybe he would’ve been more careful about his plans to wisk her away.

Matt does need something good in his life. His life has sucked. No parents, no siblings, crappy job, beat up truck, no girlfriend, no health insurance, and he’s stuck being the sounding board for all his ex’s. Let’s add on now the guilt he’ll feel for Elena choosing to die for him. Dude needs someone positive in his life. I’m not sure how mad Matt will be at Stefan. Everyone always seems to understand why Stefan does stupid things. We know Damon will be pissed. I’m pretty sure so will Jeremy. Caroline will be pro Stefan of course right along with Elena. Bonnie and Matt I don’t know. I’d say neutral. Personally i’d love to Elena become resentful that Stefan wasn’t more like Damon and over road her assinine decision to drown and saved her instead. It would be fitting for her to see which one really had her best interest at heart. Too late though because she already made her stellar choices. Hahaha.

JP said recently that Caroline might revisit her relationship with Matt but then she also said that Stefan and Caroline will get close over the Elena situation, so who knows what is in store for Matt but he does need something good to happen to him.

Yeah I know you’re right about Elena. It’ll be beyond irritating when we see her defend Stefan’s actions while somehow she gets mad at Damon like he’s a jerk for pummeling his moron of a brother for “respecting” her “choice” to drown. I cringe just thinking about it.

Nope Damon will never get a favorable script. We’ve pretty much been told that. It’s about Elena’s “journey” and her “epic” love for Stef that’s all that matters. They’ll struggle a bit but then it’l pull them closer. Yawn! Matt probably won’t fair well either. I mean he isn’t necessarily tortured by the writers but he isn’t exactly living a happy life either. They need to introduce someone new, another human to give him some happiness. I’m hoping to see Jer become a badass next season. He was getting fed up with the vamp situation before the accident. He needs to learn some planning skills from Damon though because he and Matt aren’t slick enough to pull off a good plan obviously.

My other concern is, how many times does Matt have to say/show that he is not into vampires? What I saw during season 3 is Matt resigning himself to supporting his friends, Caroline and Elena, and being concerned about their safety. Not that he wanted to be with either of them again. He decided to be a friend and that is it.
Matt has a healthy relationship with both Caroline and Elena. Elena is the one that cries on his shoulders every chance she gets. He was there for Caroline when her dad died. Then ended up taking Elena (talk about selfish) home so she could bare her soul.
Matt has been able to put the feelings he had/shared Elena and Caroline behind as a pleasant memory. He realized that they were all caught up in this supernatural mess and decided to save his friend. He almost died because of his “friendship” with Elena. Not his pining for a long lost love.

Caroline really loved Matt but, he was done with her before she became a vampire. Matt doesn’t like to get too close. He really treated her with a long handled spoon. When she became a vampire she moved on to Tyler after Matt rejected her time and again. Not many choices in Mystic Falls. Now there is Klaus and she must be thinking about what he’s saying to her. She is not thinking about Matt. And Matt is not thinking about her.

I hope JP keeps this in mind when she’s and her writing staff are writing another “epic” scene for Elena.

If you remember during season 2, Jeremy was following Damon around like he was his mentor or something. Then season 3 Elena had Damon to compel him again and he doesn’t like Damon anymore. I think Bonnie did a spell and remembers, maybe. IDK

Yeah he isn’t fond of either brother but somehow I think he’ll be more pissed at Stefan now for letting his sister drown. He still thinks Damon is a dick but he listens better to him than Stefan. Probably because Damon follows thru with his threats. The skills training won’t happen really. I was being sarcastic because Damon is better at planning things.

Caroline and Matt again, I just don’t see it. And yes Caroline has a lot of “fun”. She should be in the “rock and rollers” hall of shame with Damon. I love them both. They embrace being vampires.

If Bonnie spells Elena back to being human, I wonder if Caroline would want to be human again, too? I kinda doubt it.

Matt has a huge burden. All of his friends are supernatural in some sense including Jeremy. He is truly the only one in the group that is pure. The girls, Caroline and Elena, gravitate to him and he doesn’t push them away. I don’t think it will get him killed season 4 because he is the only pure human left within the group.

Jeremy has certainly grown from being that burn out teen to rising up as a protector. I hope they continue to show him mature into a hunter. He and Matt as “team human protectors” could work but only if they don’t act rashly. For all we know they could end up running the council once it’s over thrown creating a balance to weed out the bad vamps from the good ones to keep the town’s human’s safe. Ghost Ric will guide them from beyond. LOL.

That’s a nice visual of Jeremy hunting Stefan because he is pissed. I still say he and Damon will be the only two to hold a grudge about it. Others might be upset but they’ll give him a free pass like they always do.

I agree with you. Also, I think Damon would toy with the idea for a bit but, if you remember when Stefan was going through his moment and decides to end it all, Damon thought he was making the wrong choice. There is also, an episode where he says he misses being human more than anything.

Temporary, is the keyword. Changing a human to a vampire means that person died a physical death. So turning her human again would mean reversing death. What witch has the power to reverse death. Esther was going to use dark magic to do it but, it was never fully explained what the consequences would be. Would they really be human or another form of the undead with just enough humanity to kill her family? I think this is another avenue that JP and the writers should probably reverse their thinking on.

In everything that I’ve ever read or watch on TV a witch trying to reverse death has dire consequences. The humans are never the same and eventually had to return to the grave. In this case she’d have to revert back to being a vampire.

It will be fun to watch. I’d love to see Elena kill someone like Caroline did. That would really poke a hole in her holier than thou attitude. But as I said before, I want Damon to make her drink human blood from a live human. If Damon is gonna be hated then… Game on.

I’m sure Stefan will get a free pass with most this time too. They’ll feel bad for him because he’s all depressed from making his tough decision. Jeremy is more mature than Stefan…sad but true. Maybe it’s the human in Jer. So Jeremy having the guts to follow thru with a tricky plan…hmmm who els3 does that sound like?

Hopefully Bonnie will finally get over that ridiculous issue she had with Jeremy and a ghost. I liked them together.

Pet Cemetery was a great movie and it had some serious consequences. I can’t imagine that Bonnie would perform such a deed knowing such a deed would not go unpunished.

Jeremy was only dead a few minutes but it was long enough for him to bring his girlfriends back,

When Bonnie sent Vicki Donovan away the witch wedged the door wide open allowing Lexi, Mason Lockwood and all of the tomb ghosts with unfinished business to come back.

I can’t imagine the breach that would open. Esther would have a foothold that would probably get them all killed.

S3E7 Ghost World. Gram says that witches make all the rules and they talk even on the other side. Bonnie needs to be very careful.

Also, if Bonnie can resurrect Elena, couldn’t she do the same for her mother? Why just Elena? Will Bonnie loose her powers doing this spell? More and more questions. LOL

Bonnie would only get sucked in if Damon told her to do it. If you notice, she does anything Damon asks her to do. I always thought it odd but she and Damon have been helping each other since season 1.
