    I'm not at all suprised at how idiotic the show has turned. It's a bloody mess created by that idiot woman 'writer' Julie Plec. She needs to be fired and must give the reigns to someone more capable than her. She has written herself into a the worst plots ever. It did not make sense at all how Tyler wanted to get rid off Klaus.
    Stefan was also stupid for thinking that Klaus would keep the sword in the safe after he saw it. Ridiculous.

    I have to say though - jeremy is looking very, very buff these days. Some serious working out going on and he's turning into a very handsome man. Not the kid that we met a few seasons ago! Yumyum!!!

    `option 3 - Damon tells Elena that the bond is broken and that she has complete free will from now on, and never ever has to listen to anyone else's orders again. Took me about two minutes to work out. Sometimes writers just get it wrong. Elena has to evolve and so does the storyline.

    Am I the only one who felt terrible for Stefan, even though I want Delena to happen it seems as if this episode was of no good for Stelena fans or Delena fans. I liked the way it ended though, don't get me wrong I am mourning mayor Lockwood but it was so poetic, from Klaus talking about the symmetry to the snowflake replacement of the usual drop of blood with "have yourself a merry little christmas playing.

    I seriously don't care abt elena/damon/stephan anymore. The love triangle is just tragic, horrible ass writing. Klaus, on the other hand, was FANTASTIC this ep. Love me some him. He was str8 kicking hybrid ass. That's the klaus Ilike. Dnt let him be a wimp, although ILOVE the softer side. I actually liked tyler more this ep 2. Liked that he was so honest with stephan. All they care abt is elena, but how is the cure gonna affect other people. Hell they need to ask elena if she wanna be cured. Back to klaus, he was AWESOME. Moody, killing, teasing, idc which version Iget, Ilove it.

    that was a terrible episode. Not just because of the whole sirebond between Elena en Damon. It's inconsistancies make me hate it all the more. They keep talking about how it doesn't change your feelings and at the same time say, oh I don't know if what I feel is real. Choose one angle and stay with it please. I still think that both Stefan and Damon deserve a LOT more then Elena.
    And oh the part with Stefan and Caroline talking about how sorry they felt for Klaus.. So... you can forgive the psychokiller but not Damon? Don't get me wrong I love Klaus but dubbel standards anyone?
    Still hate every part with Bonny in it, but I know that is just me. And Haley.. I don't even know what to say about that. So we are suppose to care? God TVD was never capable of very good writing, but that didn't matter because we cared about the characters, because it surprised us. Now the writing is horrible, and the characters are even worse. So Carol Lockwood died.. How many people predicted that? About a

    I cried for Delena in this one but I think this is the very first step of Delena becoming stronger than ever. I am sad but I have hope and faith in Delena. For me, Damon, Klaus and Tyler won this episode. Especially Klaus. I loved him, felt bad for him and Damon. After this episode, I respect and love Damon even more. Its again proved that Damon is the most selfless character on the show.

  9. Obvious

    I think this was all an elaborate ploy to make Damon the Mayor of Mystic Falls (since democracy is dead this particular part of the globe considering Carol took over for her husband... logical... but I digress)
    Now that most of the town's council was blown up- or more or less dead, Damon (who is still on the council) is next in line.
    Well excluding Tyler of course, but we are to assume he disappeared. Or that a town isn't cool with having a "18" year-old as their mayor.
    Either that or Sheriff Forbes, but she already has a job...
    (four seasons and we will finally have a political drama! ;))

    some thougths after thiw episode.
    1) i m hoping that Elena breaks the sire bond all by her self for example by trying to "disobey" what Damon told her and go back to find him or something like that.I think that is the best way so that they both know her feelings are true.
    2) i hope they wont break the sire bond by making Damon take the cure. I've read somewhere that in the books Damon is the one who takes the cure. Let's NOT follow the books on that writers PLEASE! personally i would like to see either Klaus or Stefan take the cure or to turn out that the cure doesnt exist (just like the curse in S2 wasnt "the sun and the moon" curse but something different
    3)i would like to see Jeremy help his sister (and Damon)..and i want hom back with Bonnie

    @Amy Lynn
    Completely agree. I think you are right, about the hybrids and that the love triangle will always exists on some level. Elena will choose for good in the end of TVD, you can't expect anything else...
    One thing is still confusing for me. Damon didn't break the sire bond...he ordered her to leave and she left (even though she didn't want to, just because the sire bond) - her whole speach about how she wanted to fight him about it but now every part of her body telling her to get in the car... So i am really curious if it is part of the plot for next episodes or it is just a writer's mistake....still can't decide

  12. Gina

    Am the only one who thinks that by Damon doing what he did to Elena, he deepened the bond even further? Isn't the fact that he "told" her to leave him - by manipulating the bond he has over her - makes the situation worse than the bond itself? I thought this was careless and idiotic writing...

  13. De

    It was a bit of a mess and not the thrilling mid-season finale I was looking forward to.. Still, it has me looking forward to January and the new episodes.

  14. Amy Lynn

    Klaus wouldn't have killed his only living hybrids if they didn't disobey him. They wouldn't disobey him if they were sired. So Hayley convinced Tyler to unsire them all.

    And people need to relax. This show is all about twists. The sire bond with Damon and Elena is just that, a twist. I'm sure it'll somehow get broken and she'll still have those feelings for Damon and they'll get to be happy for a while. The show has always been good and this has been a phenomenal season. It's early on, they're not gonna give you what you want right away. And face the facts, the triangle will ALWAYS exist to some degree. It always has. I am a huge Damon and Elena fan and I trust the writers will give us what we want.

  15. Wes

    Where did the "I know it's real" Elena from 4x08 go? We saw Elena so sure of what she felt in the last episode, and in this one she wasn't sure of ANYTHING...oh, I hated that! I can't believe the writers are doing this to these great characters... They have been butchered beyond recognition... I don't understand how these people are writing this show...it doesn't show any continuity or flow...the shows are looking more and more as pieces or a puzzle being arranged together n a hurry..l doesn't fit? don't worry...just force the pieces together...ughh... I almost feel offended the way the show is being written...we are not morons and we follow the storyline closely as to have this dung thrown at our faces like there is no tomorrow... Hating this show with a passion!

    The writing this season has felt very uneven to me. Overall, I think the direction and the arcs are really strong/interesting. The ideas are there. It's the execution that's lacking in places. Some episodes have been fantastic, in my opinion - while some of the episodes have had dialogue and beats that seemed almost sloppy. Tonight's episode especially, the story felt rushed and so many things were left unexplained. Are they maybe breaking in a new writer right now?

  17. littlelight

    @Rel yeah the directing and music were great.

    The writing continues to be atrocious. Childish explanations don't make for great story. If you need to inform the viewer slowly, then perhaps that's the problem. Witches are funny. Persuasion yada yada yada.

    Power Rangers had better writing.

    Stefan is a huge idiot considering Caroline needed to inform him about Delena sex. I'm a Ste__fan , but seriously pathetic. Sweet Caroline where have you gone.

  18. rel

    eery christmas music**

  19. Dan

    Stefan "how together are they? Caroline....tell me!" ...Carolline "Bitch, they are sooo together there is no telling them apart...she ripped his shirt open while dancing and then shagged him all night...she then continue shagging him in the morning and scratched the hell out of him, are you stupid or what?" Wahahahaha

  20. bite me

    sire=lame

  21. Herewego

    On a positive note, when klaus called Stefan the "rrrippah" again I LOVED IT! Talk about someone never seeming more alive! Bring back the rippah of monteray!!!

  22. Rel

    This episode was so good yet terrible. It was... Directed well. There were awesome scenes.. The eddy Christmas music was awesome with the murder scenes. But the storyline left something to be desired. I'm so confused!!! Damon set Elena free yet... She still kissed him. So wouldn't be be like... Oh wait her feelings are real..? And the hybrids?! What the heck? Is klaus on hayleys team?! Cause he seemed to have met her for the first time at Tyler's place? Then Why did he kill all those hybrids?! I'm so confused? And why did they have to be unsired? And why was he so mad at Tyler for trying to kill him? Everyone is alwys trying to kill him? Killing carol seemed strange... And When did Tyler to back to being an alpha male douche... Stefan has always been so nice to him... Always helped him.. Tyler came to Stefan for help just recently when he was shot by the hunter. He had no reason to be such a controlling jerk... And Caroline has been friends with Elena since they were kids... Her loyal

  23. Herewego

    @Susie thanks! Season 1-3 stelena...delena deserves equal time and the sire bond story cheapens a love story that has honestly grown over three years not two episodes.

  24. Mad as hell

    I really hope the cure is never found and Elena is never human again...I won't be able to stand another episode of mopey, martyr, I-sacrifice-myself-for-everyone Elena...I was SO glad to see the assertive, in your face, bitchy Elena from last episode...in this episode I saw glimpses of what's to come, and it's not pretty...she will become the same brooding I-don't-know-what-to-do spineless little girl...I hated her for three episodes until she became a vampire...oh, and the sire bond shit...don't even get me started...what a load of crap! C'mon writers, put your thinking caps on and give us something believable or at the very least, entertaining...

  25. Ann

    I just dont know what to say....I just think...so much love to let Elena go.... Poor damon...I hope she will feel all this love....I hope Stefan gonna realise that too. So ...i'm still delena. I still believe...it s not so bad...he just want to be sure she loves him for good reason...so delena more then ever.
