Beth - care to explain what you meant with the bad editing?

It was an okay episode - I just don't get the line Stefan says "Damon was there for you in ways I could never be" come again?

But he told Damon to never come back so he was slightly over Damon's behaviour?

It's too uncomfortable watching Katherine as Elena and manipulating Stefan This is making me question my love for Katherine. Does TVD want me to hate everyone like Debs does?

You make it sound like that is a bad thing

ETA ETA

Once again - after a Damon centered episode the ratings landed on 2.16

Yep yep.

5*12 had a rating at 2.42.

The only episode with a lower rating in season 5 was 5*05 "Monster's Ball" that landed on 2.07

Some examples:
  • The shot where Aaron is revealed dead in the trunk. The music and sound effects made it feel like it was supposed to give you a fright but the way the shot was cut didn't have that effect. I think in part, it was a bad camera set-up but I also think that the first shot of the body should have been the close-up as it would have had more of the effect that the sound implied it should have. Although it should be said that for anyone who had seen the previous episode, it was too obvious what Stefan was going to find there anyway.
  • The fight scene in the wood with Stefan and Enzo - I felt that one or two of the cuts between Stefan and Enzo were unnecessary and lost a little of the gravitas of what Stefan was saying.
  • The fight scene between Stefan and Enzo while Katherine was saving Jeremy: the music was off and when it cut to a shot of Katherine in the same room, you wouldn't have known there was a fight going on at the same time. The sound effects were off, and - this isn't editing but - the fight itself was badly choreographed and two slow for a conflict between two vampires.
  • Again, the music was off. I felt like it just didn't match up to the scenes (or perhaps matched to the effect they were supposed to have, but didn't).

I can't remember other examples right now.

Hmmm - I agree that some parts of the Stefan/Enzo scene in the woods where strange and I couldn't really put my finger on it.

"He's there for you. Sometimes in better ways than I ever was." Probably not though Stefan. It's lines like these that upset me so much. Stop trying to pumped up Damon and bring down Stefan.

It's just very hard to be a Stelena shipper at the moment
