As expected The Vampire Diaries sucked tonight, pretty bad.
It was less like a TV show and more like a montage of all the commercials. The progression was so slow that i feel asleep several times, you know it's bad when you're sleeping during a vampire show. The real nail in the coffin (hahahaha) was changing so much of the story, oddly enough most of the changes were things that made it less like it's own entity and more like twilight. One twilight is quite enough, we can only take so much. One of the decisions was the removal of Meridith, maybe one of the best young women in "young adult fiction". If you have not read the books, Meridith is a woman who is loyal, smart, and strong pretty much everything we should be hoping girls will aspire to be. With Meridith's omission and the mellowing out of Elana we're left with another franchise aimed at young people with no strong female roles, that's just sucky for everyone.
My guess is that if something does not happen to turn this ship around it will never make it to season two. Also cant the CW make a show that does not glorify teenage drinking and drugs use?
anyone else who was disappointed by tonight's show should read the books, you'll most likely feel my sympathies for the author, her story was destroyed.
