I don't know why people want those vampires should alive.. In Case of enzo right after he turned into vampire he was taken for torturing. He also killed people mostly 8 season when he was possesed.. Killing Tom avery by enzo was unforgeable that he has done.. For me out of all vampires enzo deserve to live.. iam with ester, "no one should live that long"

    I get that Michael Malarkey means well when defending Enzo's death but... No... Just no. Doing this to Bonnie's character once more was one step too far. She has lost someone or something in almost every single season of the show starting from season 1, starting from the very beginning. She lost her entire family one by one, she lost her then-boyfriend several times and in many ways, she lost her own life saving people and then in the end, the writers still ripped her of her soulmate? Yes, there's no justice in life, yes, this is only fiction but what message does that send to young girls (or boys) who see themselves in Bonnie?

    • @theiosif3632
      @theiosif3632 2 года назад +4

      Respectfully. It says what you mentioned. Life is a son of a gun. This whole show is about heart ache. Elena LITERALLY lost all of her family. Her parents, Jenna, John, Jeremy, Alaric, and even Isabel on some level. I'm not bothered by one character having more loss than another. Not even when they are the "magic" fix for most every problem. In my mind it makes them even more the hero. To live such a tragic life and still chose to be the good they want to see, is more powerful than a nice ending. For me, if I want to see a happy ending I'll watch a Lego movie. When I watch a dark series about Vampires. Bring on the death.

  • @queeng508

    suggestion for the original's binge:
    season one with charles michael davis and claire holt,
    season two with danielle campbell and yufus gatewood,
    season three with leah pipes and daniel gillies,
    season four with phoebie tonkin and riley voelkel,
    season five with danielle rose russel and joseph morgan.
    i feel like having them in this order would serve extremely well each actor's character storylines:
    we would have charles and claire in season one, because beks was always kind of the connecting point between tvd and to, even if the main character is klaus, while marcel acts as the villain (in a kind of way that reminds of katherine in tvd, even if different), and their characters have a history that will be the tie to many storylines;
    in season two danielle and yufus as the two main witches of the serie, both of them with extremely interesting developments during the years and especially in season two, since yufus gets to play someone that has control of someone else that later will be such an important part of the puzzle, while davina is going through a lot and at the end of which she will be the new reagent. also both of them are connected, since yufus is portraing the brother of danielle's role's love interest, and since vincent will then be kind of her mentor, in a way;
    in season three we would have leah, of which character has now become a fully involved in the supernatural world and is a fundamental part of how things go, while daniel's elijah has, too, a lot to process, and is also somehow one of the reasons of their being all in trouble, while also developing the relationship with hayley;
    in season four we have phoebie's hayley, who is now a super mom of a super child while also having to find thw way to bring her family back. during the season we can see her relationship with elijah growing, that will be kind of her stone when her daughter life is in danger. with phoebie we have riley, whose character is now fully a devoted part of the family after such a life, and during this season we can see her character evolve, find love and having to take extreme decisions in her path to protect everyone she loves;
    finally, in season five we havd joseph's klaus and danielle's hope, the real main characters around which every single episodes was rotating around. this season we can see the length to which all the family, but especially klaus, can go to to keep hope as safe as possible, while also seeing the consequences these actions have on hope herself and her relationships with the people around her.
    i think this would be a fantastic serie of videos/episodes of binge, and with the addition, obviously, of julie and/or writers they would be so so so amazing, honestly. i believe this serie you created, 'binge', is a great idea but needs to be developed properly for it not to be a wasted potential, and i feel like yes, maybe there could be difficulties in producing it this way but it would be so worth it and would make justice to the serie so much and to the fans, who will probably never be able to have this experience ever otherwise, and whom you could make extremely happy with just this action.
    also, if i may add, please (!) ask about the comparison between the original tvd books and the concept of the original, but most importantly ask to the actora about their challenging moments during the whole serie, such as daniel's amnesia period, or charles portayal of marcel-davina or his villain-ally-family role, or yufus' multiple characters and so on.
    ps. thank you for bringing us these episodes of tvd binge, even with all its flaws. it was beautiful (great choice of the host! she was super kind and involved and informed, and felt really real instead of a host that barely know what the topic it)!

      I agree it seemed sincere even if it was a little out of the blue 'cos i can't remember if there was a segway into it. Still, it's a good step and to be fair, i think some other people should apologise or try to have a conversation with kat graham as well. I had no idea how badly she was treated until I saw a video about it but the signs were there. Her character didn't seem to get as much as the others and there was visible discomfort in some interviews. I feel sad she hasn't said much on it or feels comfortable talking about it I guess. Hopefully one day she might. At least the fans are very supportive.

    • @countesspoppie
      @countesspoppie 2 года назад

      If the apology isn't accepted, it still remains an apology which wasn't accepted. It's funny to think that as recently as 10 years ago can be seen as a "different time" but I appreciate her saying this publicly and acknowledge that people were trying to talk to her and she didn't listen. I wanted to see so much more of the witch world, as well as the werewolf world through Bonnie & Tyler, even if I understand I am not a television writer and am not therefore trained in the skills of tv narrative story-building and it would risk potentially overcomplicating a tv show aimed at YA. I was in my mid twenties and had devoured the books as a teenager.

    I really want to know what Stefan did to deserve death while Damon didn't ? Stefan was always the one that suffered. He was 10 when his mother died, at 16 his first love abandoned him ( with reason ofc but that he gets to know later on), at 17 he was compelled by Katherine to be abused and Damon was rather interested in getting her than understanding what his brother was going through, then he died, became a ripper, he turned Damon into a vampire ( who already wanted to turn but with katherine yet he guilt trips Stefan for over century), he suffered through ripper rampage and the only person who helped him, Lexi, was killed by Damon. He found love in Elena but Damon was constantly sabotaging that ( while when Delena were in relationship Stefan respected it). Damon falls in love with Elena once Katherine says she doesn't love him ( how ironic), Elena cheats on him by kissing Damon in S2, Stefan again becomes a ripper to save Damon but he was busy flirting with Elena and declaring his love for her, he has the least regards for his brother to get with his ex-girlfriend to bed just after the break up driving him away from his own house, he drowns in the quarry for the entire summer when Damon was rather busy playing house with Elena. When Stefan lost his memory Elena did everything to lead him on and then shatter his heart again, Damon cared least about Stefan's ptsd even after seeing the effects ( while when Damon came out of the Phoenix stone hell Stefan actively tried to help), Care and Katherine helps him and yet Damon judges him for sleeping with katherine? Damon was the one that killed Enzo's girl maggie and left him in that fire yet he hates Stefan ? Kills Ivy ? Is the reason Sarah dies ? Stefan dies once in S5 to save Care. When he finally got Care in S7 again to save Damon he got marked by Rayna and had to leave his happiness behind again while Damon decided to dessicate in a coffin rather than helping Stefan, he dies again in S7 when Rayna stabs him with the sword, the entire trauma in Marty's body and again almost dies, in S8 when he was finally happy and engaged he sells his soul to Cade to save the twins, damon ruins that one 24 hour that he wanted to spend with Care on Christmas, he becomes the ripper again which he hates and Damon suddenly acts as if he cares ? He wanted to escape hell on the first place so he gives the idea of giving his soul to Cade. Caroline gives back the engagement ring. Everyone including Care works to bring Damon back to normal but no one tries to do the same to Stefan. He kills Enzo without humanity ( It was still wrong and for me his saddest kill because Bonnie deserved the love though she marries someone named Smithfield later), becomes human when he wanted to spend an eternity with Caroline, kills cade to save his brother, is full of regrets and guilt and finally dies for Damon on the very same day that he finally got married to someone who loved him without any conditions and yet he's not the better man ? And deserves to die ?
    No wonder Paul wesley was done playing Stefan, his character was screwed over the most.

    That ending of season 8 was the best ending. It was closing the full circle. Stefan that force Damon to be a vampire, gave his brother the chance to live a human life, being loved, the life he didn't had the chance to have back then as human and Stefan that was never called accountable for the bad things he did, finally did and by sacrifying himself earned peace. Totally heart breaking, even more because for Damon a life without his much loved brother ment so much less. Therefore it is beautiful that in the end, after Damon lived a fullfilling human life, they could find each other again and be together forever in peace. So poetic, so beautiful.

    I understand there may have been valid personal or professional reasons for Nina coming back for just the Finale & not more episodes. However her exit at the end of season 6 was so beautifully written her later return promised so much more. I guess we were all waiting on the epic love story of Elena & Damon to take flight again. What we got was a fleeting kiss (Boy there was more love shown between Bonnie & Damon reuniting from the prison world). From what came before with Delena it felt we were very short changed. Damon waited 2 seasons & went through literal hell to be reunited with the love of his life. Strange to hear he was going to be killed off. Surely improbable with waiting to wake Elena so late on in the finale. Shame a deal couldn't be agreed for a longer run. Would be interested to know what Julie's vision would have been if a longer stint could have been agreed? Elena losing both brothers would have broken her for good.
