Elena's Best The Vampire Diaries Humanity-Free Moments So Far!

Elena (Nina Dobrev) has been the heart of The Vampire Diaries since it premiered four and half seasons ago. The immortal love triangle she’s been involved in since day one has been compelling (pun totally intended), and we’ve loved watching all the supernatural goings on in Mystic Falls and beyond. But it’s been compassionate, thoughtful, moral, and kind Elena Gilbert whose provided the show the emotional center it needed to keep from spinning off into total and utter blood-sucking insanity.

Even when season four introduced us to the new, undead version of Elena, she was still the same girl we’d met years early — albeit it with a new set of ethical and romantic conundrums to sort through. Gone were the days of her worries being strictly Damon (Ian Somerhalder) or Stefan (Paul Wesley) related. The turning of Elena Gilbert meant adding problems like “oh man, it is so awesome to drink blood from the sexy college co-eds at this frat party” and “it sucks that I can drink human blood without losing

The Vampire Diaries Speculation: What Will Elijah Do With the Cure?

Among the many surprises to come at us courtesy of last week’s The Vampire Diaries “American Gothic” episode was the return of Elijah Mikaelson (Daniel Gillies). This well-dressed Original appeared to have taken a page from Justin Timberlake’s book, donning suit and tie for a prearranged tete-a-tete. He arrived at the local town gazebo for a meeting with Katherine Pierce (Nina Dobrev), his new paramour. But it wasn’t the sassiest doppelganger on the planet there to greet him.

In spite of stealing her stylish supernatural relation’s footwear, there was no fooling Elijah. When he noticed Katherine’s missing daylight protection, he knew the truth. He hadn’t just kissed Katherine — he had kissed Elena (Nina Dobrev).

The glimpse into Elijah’s love life was fun and it was also awesome to see him and

The Originals Description: Big Trouble in The Big Easy

On April 25, The Vampire Diaries will air "The Originals," an episode meant to serve as a backdoor pilot for, well... The Originals.

How will Julie Plec and company get the ball rolling for this potential spinoff? What will take Klaus to The Big Easy and why might he permanently make residence there?





The CW has released the official synopsis for this exciting episode, which will also include Daniel Gillies as Elijah and Phoebe Tonkin as Hayley.

‘Vampire Diaries’ Scoop: Klaus Makes Enemies On ‘Originals’ Backdoor Pilot

Who’s out to get Klaus? What’s Damon and Stefan’s ‘plan’ for Elena? All will soon be revealed!

Mark your calendars: We’re officially three weeks away from the episode of The Vampire Diaries that also serves as the backdoor pilot for The Originals, the purposed spin-off that follows Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and his siblings to New Orleans’ French Quarter. The CW just released the official description for the episode, revealing information about the new characters we’ll meet down south.

Let’s start with Marcel (Charles Michael Davis), a “charismatic vampire” who also happens to be Klaus’ former protégé. We learned a little bit about Marcel when Charles was first cast in the role, but now we know that he has “total control over the human and supernatural inhabitants of New Orleans.”

So, basically, the protégé has become the master.

But why does Klaus go there in the first place? According to the episode’s description, Klaus receives a “mysterious tip that a plot is brewing against him in New Orleans … [so he] makes a trip to the town he and his family helped build.”

 ‘The Vampire Diaries’ interview round-up: Julie Plec, Joseph Morgan on Klaus’ future, and more

It seems that Joseph Morgan and Julie Plec just can’t get enough talk about The Originals, as both have recently given interviews discussing all things Klaus, The Originals pilot, and the character’s future on The Vampire Diaries.

All About Klaus

In a recent interview with Fearnet.com, Joseph Morgan discusses all things Klaus and gives a few tidbits that may be news to fans. When asked about the potential of the budding romance between Klaus and Caroline, he had this to say about his homicidal alter-ego, “Look, he felt he was dying and called Caroline. Not his sister. Not his brother. That says a lot about where he is in terms of his feelings towards her.” He goes on to say that, “Klaus wants to believe he is, that he is someone capable of love. We’ll see how it plays out, but he’s definitely on board with the idea of being with her.”

He also commented on where he would like to see The Originals take his character: “It would be nice if The Originals go to series, if it’s ultimately the story of Klaus’ redemption. I would like to think it is possible for him, but it’s going to take a little work.”

But do not fret Klaus (and Carolaus) fans, Joseph Morgan’s time may not be up on The Vampire Diaries just yet. It seems fairly certain that we will see Klaus after The Originals backdoor pilot (4×20) airs in a few weeks, as you can read in this bit from Examiner.com, “Klaus, Rebekah, and Elijah will be heading to New Orleans in Episode 20 this season for The Originals spin-off episode… but that doesn’t mean they’re just going to stay in NoLa, killing time and waiting for the fall TV season. We can tell you that Episode 20 isn’t the last we’ll see of Klaus this season on The Vampire Diaries.”

Matt’s mom was a what?!

The Vampire Diaries Makes Prom Look Hotter Than Ever

Lucky for us all, we can let the CW’s hot paranormal series whisk us away to the prom night of our dreams.

The Vampire Diaries’ Originals Spin-Off: Klaus’s New Love Interest?

In The Vampire Diaries spin-off, The Originals, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) heads for New Orleans, but does that mean he’s leaving his affection for Caroline (Candice Accola) behind, as well?

Not exactly, executive producer Julie Plec tells Entertainment Weekly, but a human may catch his eye. Cami (Leah Pipes) a psychology student, works as a bartender at Rousseau's, New Orleans’s answer to the Mystic Grill.

''She refuses to believe in evil,'' explains

The Vampire Diaries Spoilers: Will Klaus Return After the Originals Pilot?

The Originals — The Vampire Diaries spin-off that’s set to air on The CW April 25 — promises lots of Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies), and Rebekah (Claire Holt). But will we ever seen the siblings back on TVD?

Zap2It has a spoiler that bodes well for Klaus fans. According to the site, the Original hybrid will indeed make his way back to Mystic Falls after visiting New Orleans.

There aren’t many details, but we wonder if he’ll come back to settle things with Caroline (Candice Accola). He and the vampire left things off at “just friends,” but she

Spoilers! Is Katherine the one dancing with Stefan in the next TVD episode?

After watching the last episode of The Vampire Diaries “American Gothic” and the promo for the next episode “Pictures of you” you must notice the fact that while dancing with Stefan, Elena is wearing a bracelet similar to the bracelet Katherine wears.






We can hear Bonnie in the promo saying “Elena’s Gone” and there are rumors Katherine will show up in the prom episode. Julie Plec stated in various interviews that Elena will not use sex to manipulate like Katherine does. From what we can see in the promo – if that really is Elena dancing and flirting with Stefan than she has become same as Katherine…or that is actually Katherine in the promo!

What do you think? Is Katherine trespassing the prom and acting as she is Elena? Why would she do that after giving the cure to Elijah? Does she have a back up plan? Or maybe the bracelets are just a coincidence and Elena is just playing the brothers in a “Katherine Pierce” way?

What Job Should Vampire Diaries’ Rebekah Do If She Becomes Human?

Rebekah (Claire Holt) came thisclose to getting the cure on Season 4, Episode 18 of The Vampire Diaries, “American Gothic”. Even though she got robbed again (Katherine! fist shake!) she doesn’t seem to be wavering at all in her dedication to becoming human again. We get it! She wants a normal life, she wants to grow old, she wants to hear the pitter-patter of little mini-Rebekah feet.


That’s all well and good, but we can’t stop thinking about the logistics of all this. How do you explain why mommy knows so much about the Black Plague, or why none of your uncles are ever, ever, ever allowed to visit? But most importantly, what is Rebekah going to do? She’ll be cut off from the compulsion, which we can only assume is the source of all vampires’ inexplicable and impressive wealth. Maybe Rebekah has invested wisely, but just in case, we’ve put together a list of career options we think she should look into if and when she becomes human. Good luck!

Here are some suggestions...



Rebekah Could Whip People Into Shape as a Personal Trainer
We imagine this OV is going to be hurting a little after losing that innate physical fitness that all immortals are gifted. She’ll never be able to achieve vamp-level strength again, of course, but a job that keeps her in tip-top shape would keep her feeling good and prepared for more ass-kicking.






Rebekah Would Do an Amazing Job as a Party Planner
She’s hyper-focused, she has experience with everything from formal balls to ‘80s theme dances, and she’s the only person in Mystic Falls who has ever out-planned Caroline (Candice Accola). That’s saying something.






Rebekah Could Try Being a Kindergarten Teacher
Kids are a pretty big part of why Rebs wants to regain her “alive” status, so maybe she should get a little real world experience with them. Though if she wants to go this route, we recommend a little pre-cure compelling to get some references in order.






Rebekah Would Make a Great Talent Agent
She’s been in the “ruthless wheeler-dealer” category for centuries now, so we think Rebekah could give the toughest agents out there a run for their money. Any actor worth their salt would want someone like Rebekah on their side if they had a contract to be negotiated. We just really, really wouldn’t want to be her assistant.






Rebekah Could Apply to Be a Waitress at the Grill
Matt (Zach Roerig) would probably get her the hook-up at Mystic Grill, right? He’d probably be so excited to have another human in town that he’d give her anything she wanted, compulsion-free!







Rebekah Could Use Her Skills to Be a PR Exec
Can’t you just see Rebekah wielding a clipboard, making guest lists and throwing people to the back of a velvet-roped line? We can. She may have lost her superhuman strength, but her bitch face is going to be in fine working order.
