I haven't decided if I think Stefan is all talk or not. I know he's really protective of Elena, but I'm not sure he'd kill her father.
Yet.
But this show is weird.
I did not see vampire Caroline coming.
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
I wasn't surprised that I enjoy this version of Stefan, because I prefer my vampires badass and slightly psychotic.
perhaps i should rephrase. i was suprised to find myself enjoying Stefan period. it was unnatural for me. he's a bit more tolerable for me in the books.
have y'all read the books? Vamp Caroline is a huuuuuuuuuuuuge improvement. she truly creeped me the hell out in the books.

Yes, I've read the books. While wincing. Hell, the version of every character on the show is huuuuuuuuge improvement over the book versions.

ha! you're probably right about that. though i do still think Stefan is more tolerable in the books. i really like Meredith and i'm kind of bummed they kinda smushed her and Bonnie's character to make show!Bonnie.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Resident Evil" director Paul W.S. Anderson tells us what female action heroes can do that men can't
My first reaction to that headline was, "Have babies?"

Show a broad range of emotions and display vulnerability without it detracting from the badassedness would be on my list as well.

Getting roughed up by Iceburgh is not the sort of vulnerability I had in mind.

I can never remember episode titles, but I wouldn't say "Home" is the best X-File. I'd recommend "Final Repose of Clyde Bruckmann" before that or "The Unnatural" or even the one with the genie. But "Home" definitely packs a punch. And I didn't need that particular earworm.
