Now THAT was epic. I love when they have Stefan going out of control on human blood, that was one of my favourite arcs from season 1. Sooooo excited now for ripper Stefan for next season :bounces: And he sacrificed his humanity out of love for Damon :dies: Actually I was always a little disappointed last season that it was Elena alone that talked Stefan back from suicide after all the flashbacks with Stefan and Damon's turning in that episode, so I hope Damon plays a bigger role this time in saving Stefan from his own ~dark side~
I was happier with Damon/Elena scenes than I have been for a while because it felt like the writers (and well Ian tbh) were trying less hard to make them epic and create these intense eye-popping moments for Damon. It was more sweet than anything else, to me anyway. I also liked him telling Elena "Take all the time you need" and being less selfish with his emotions around her. Here's hoping season 3 has less of emo wanting to be human Damon, and more of him getting his shit together, being a bad-ass, and trying to save Stefan.
And ANNA!!! I love her, so I've got my fingers crossed for some kind of human/ghost (what, it could happen LOL) romance for her and Jeremy next season, and lots of appearances from her and Vicky :D Really I'm just happy that season 3 should finally give Jeremy something to do, and have him confront the loss of Anna hopefully. His storyline this season was pretty much dropped early on just to pair him off with Bonnie which was a real waste. Not that him and Bonnie aren't okay together, but they're also been pretty boring
And I'm glad that Katherine's not dead, and that they paid off her seeming to warm up to Damon this season by finally declaring that she did love both brothers. She also seemed genuinely concerned for Stefan, and I would so love if they used next season to give us the Stefan/Katherine that I was hoping for during the first half of this season. Just as long as they don't bring her back only to have her hanging out trapped in tombs, Klaus's place, and wherever else. That's a waste of her character
And the Caroline scene with her hugging her mother broke my heart. Caroline was so adorable this episode with her love of Gone With The Wind too, "All this waiting around for news is ruining Scarlett for me" *g*
And it look like Alaric might be Elena and Jeremy's new guardian, that final scene with Jeremy was pretty cute. And squee at Damon's fate being what snaps him out of his moping, I hope the show will continue focusing on their friendship for next season
And interview with Julie Plec on it all

Also the CW have picked up Sarah Michelle Gellar's pilot, "Ringer," to series, so it seems that the new network head really is trying to diversify the programing on their network which hopefully means good things for a second season of Nikta :fingers crossed:
And LMAO the anon meme send the Gossip Girl writers info on who the mole is on sssite that has been giving away all the spoilers, and the writers have a tweet making fun of the sssite's riddles:
Let me tell you all right now:
Not only do we know who runs the sssite...
...but we also know what we plan to do with them.
If any of them want to come clean, they know how to find us.
If they come clean, we will spare them.
If they don't, they'll get what's coming to them.
You know you love us. xoxo, Gossip Girl.
Oh and someone from sssite tweeted the writers with
@ggwriters Why are you guys working so late? Shouldn't you be sleeping, you naughty writers?
and they tweeted back
@sendtherain You of all people shouldn't be calling us naughty, Tatiana. ;)
:dying right now: I don't even know why this is so funny to me, it just feels like a real life Gossip Girl plot or something hee

Date: 2011-05-14 06:19 pm (UTC)What happened is that the sssite's owner (PLLfan) sold the finale script for $20 to a bunch of people. (The writers were actually one of the people who bought it off of him, trololol.) And the reason the writers started asking for info is because the anon meme was tweeting them that S5 was already leaking. Which they *thought* was impossible, but their mole turned out a little differently than they expected.

And now I'm REALLY intrigued LOL :is secretly wishing the anon meme's jokes about it being Ed could have any possibility of being true:

Date: 2011-05-15 04:31 am (UTC)The next four scripts were personally watermarked, i.e. no files were made without a name attached to them. And THAT'S when the scripts stopped leaking and the ssssssite began controlling the release of spoilers.
So IDK. The leak has been ridiculous, but they were trying. They just didn't understand how things were leaking. Until now, hopefully

Date: 2011-05-14 05:50 pm (UTC)And yes I do love Stefan, but his character feels really pushed to the background this year in favour of Damon's, and I'm excited for season 3 to give him more than just being Elena's girlfriend and the sensible brother

Date: 2011-05-14 05:50 pm (UTC)Also I cheered when I saw Anna back. ANNA! She was so awesome.

Date: 2011-05-14 05:57 pm (UTC)Much love for Anna! I'm still hoping for flashbacks to explain more of her and Pearl and how they ended up being mother and daughter and both vampires

Yeah, I liked it too. I just wish they'd cut the line about how Elena likes Damon just the way he is.
by finally declaring that she did love both brothers.
I know, HUGE moment. Which surprised me, tbh. And yeah, I hope we get some dark!Stefan/Katherine, too. I just hope they don't end up busing Stefan to build up Damon/Elena too much.

Date: 2011-05-14 08:16 pm (UTC)And yeah it surprised me too because I remember earlier in the season how it confused me in the flashbacks how Katherine almost seemed annoyed by Damon, and was practically stepping over his body to get to Stefan and whisper sweet nothings in his ear. It made the original premise of Katherine wanting to turn both of them really confusing because early season 2 had me wondering why she was even bothering with Damon at all when she seemed so head over heels for Stefan only. I think they needed to give her attraction to Damon more emphasis then, but hey better late than never!

Date: 2011-05-14 07:15 pm (UTC)But the GG spoilers were pretty good. :) And this whole war between the writers and the fans has been pretty amusing.

Date: 2011-05-15 08:01 am (UTC)Did they kill off Elena's aunt? That would seriously piss me off.
I hate the Stefan out of control stuff.
Damon wants to be human? Fuck, not him too. I am SO SICK of vampires wanting to be human. It's the most overused cliche in modern vampire stories and it's a pain in the butt, because it's being vampires that makes them interesting.
Bonnie and Jeremy? Bonnie is annoying. Don't want her with anything but a gravestone.

Date: 2011-05-15 11:47 am (UTC)And they did kill Jenna, yes. They didn't really do much with Jenna for most of the season, and then in her last few episodes I was pretty impressed by her acting and emotionally invested in her. But I suppose that, out of the regulars, she is the most expendable other than maybe Matt
And I haven't been a huge fan of the writing of Damon this year, or the eye thing he does becoming a bit too overdone and unsubtle LOL. I'm hoping they're moving on from some of the angsting and self-pity now that his near-death experience will hopefully cause some positive changes with him
