^ That's great! I'm happy to hear that. I'm doing well. Things are getting on track again, which I'm grateful for.

Not really. I never like it when Klaus is desiccated. And with Marcel in control of him, I can't imagine how he's going to get back to his family in one piece. It's going to be quite a season premiere. The wait just might kill me.


Awesome! I look forward to your thoughts.

meen

Wait is always excruciating.. Tell me about it?

It really is coming next year?

rocky845

^ I know! The only bright side that I can see for the postponement is that I'll have more time to do my re-watch. I'm really going to enjoy Klaus' anticipated arrival in season two of The Vampire Diaries. There is so much that I'm looking forward to.

That's right. Season four is going to premiere sometime in 2017, probably in January or February.

Thank goodness for rewatches!!

rocky845

^ I'm very determined to re-watch the two shows. I need to be reminded who these characters were at the beginning, and how they grew and changed throughout the seasons. The anticipation of Klaus is going to be so high when I get to season two.

I'm currently on episode 11 of Season 2 of my rewatch!! Elijah already made his first appearance, and they're already talking about Klaus I'm so excited for his first episode! Although Rose said Klaus was the oldest and first vampire ever which we know isn't true so you know But still I'm loving doing this rewatch!

rocky845

^ Did you get excited when his name was mentioned? I know that's going to happen to me when I get to season two. I'm going to love re-watching Klaus come out of the closet. That's the one thing I remember about Klaus' first appearance on the show. Remind me. Who was the oldest and first vampire ever?

royalღcaliber

I did!! I'm all finished Season 2 now, and I was so happy when Klaus came out of the closet "Now that's more like it" Technically they all are since they all turned at the same time. That scene I was talking about made it seem like Klaus was older than Elijah and it bugged me a little But then I remember that the writers didn't know they were brothers until mid season. Elijah was suppose to die, but they changed their minds and worked his character in more and then came up with the Original family which thank God they did!! I'm learning to let the little things not bother me because it's always going to change, there will always be a "loophole"; the writers way of changes what's inconvenient to them

rocky845

^ The moment he stepped out of the closet, you could just feel the power coming off of him. What an entrance! I see. Rose claiming Klaus was the oldest vampire does make it seem like he's older than Elijah. If the change to Elijah's connection to Klaus still bugs you, then you should probably prepare for season seven's time-jumping. [Sidenote: You find out how things turn out in three years for the characters, and throughout the season, the main timeline slowly moves along so that you find out what led the characters to that point. Eventually, the two time-lines converge and the future becomes the present. ] If you try to remember all the details so that you can put them together and make a clear picture, then you're going to be driven mad, because a lot of things just don't fit. Anyway, I love the decision that TPTB made to make Elijah and Klaus brothers, and how that decision paved the way for the rest of the Mikaelsons to be brought into the show.

royalღcaliber

I agree!! I cheer everytime!! It bugged me at first, but then I just realized that stories could get mixed up over 500 years so it doesn't bother me anymore I'm prepared for that to happen, to have storylines get mixed up and not make sense. I'll just go with it I'm so glad they decided to make them brothers and do the Mikaelson family storyline!! Best thing they ever did

rocky845

^ That's not surprising at all. A lot of shows have those moments where you scratch your head about when you do a re-watch, because it just doesn't mesh with something else that was shown before. All you can do is to remember that, with a show that's been on the air for many years, things tend to get mixed up, re-written, or completely changed sometimes. I really don't remember much about Klaus and Elijah in season two. That was when I was actually rooting for Stefan, Elena and Damon to come out on top, so I didn't think I had to get attached to the 'bad guy(s)' of the season. Who could have predicted that that would all change in season three? Since their introduction, I've been on Team Originals. I've found that I gravitate towards the most powerful people on shows. They just tend to be the bad guys nine times out of ten.


ETA: Sooo...I'm in the middle of season two and I've discovered something. For some reason, I'm now rooting for the Originals. How warped is that?

Stefan: I'm sorry but I can't help you.
Rose: I don't need your help, but I think you need mine. Elijah may be dead, but this isn't over.
Stefan: What do you mean, it's not over?
Rose: It isn't over. The Originals -- they'll come for her. They have to. They're doing it for him.
Stefan: For who?
Rose: Klaus.

Love it! Just as I thought, I got a chill when Rose said his name.

a fine mess

Joseph plays evil so well. And Klaus isn't purely evil - I see layers to his character.

rocky845

^ Yes! Even back in season two when we heard how cruel he had been to those who got in his way or got on his bad side, I could still understand his motivations and I could feel how he must have felt. Exactly. Nobody is 100 percent good or 100 percent bad. Everyone has both sides to their characters. They just choose to show one side over the other. I love that Klaus' human side has been shown more and more since his introduction. It has made him more interesting as a character to see the battle between his two sides.

LoyalFreakLisa

Yes, he does and so do I!

rocky845

^ It's fun to watch him tiptoe between wanting to be feared and loved, or the villainous immortal and the vulnerable human. As much as I love the 'loved' and 'human' categories, seeing him show us why he's so feared and hated really gets me. He's a legend and a mystery, and nothing and nobody can really stand a chance against him.
