JAJP’s 100th episode is marked by another of my co-hosts quitting. Thanks, Julie Plec! Julie also gifts me with an episode that will not matter in the long run: Elena’s switch is off, which means she has no feelings. So she rebels against the Salvatores and Caroline because she has no feelings, is jealous because she has no feelings, tries to ( Read more... )

Guest: Cana

Cana joins me and a tipsy Olu to discuss Jeremy’s death, the different versions of Silas and Qetsiyah’s story, and Julie Plec’s post episode interviews.

Quotes of the Podcast: “They could’ve done this Elena wants to burn down the house, but they could’ve pushed that off. [...] They should’ve waited ‘til the end of the season for that ( Read more... )

Co-host: Olu

Klaus poisons Caroline in order to make the shippers swoon, and we talk about the fact that Caroline reacts to the bite differently than every other vampire. Elena continues her rivalry with Rebekah in a way that doesn’t quite say ‘I’m pissed because you killed me,’ and we learn about who Shane got his Expression information from. ( Read more... )

Co-host: Olu

Ask not for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for Kol.

Quotes of the Podcast: ldquo;He is dead! Dead and gone; ashes to ashes; dust to dust. Burnt, went up in flames. Gone! Thank you for that writers, because it was exactly what we wanted, and it was great.”

n Stefan/Rebekah, “Rebekah’s making their scenes for me.”-Olu

Co-host: Olu

This episode blessed Olu and me with gifts: we both got Bonnie Expressing her anger and her powers, and Olu’s dream came true when Rebekah and Stefan engaged in some knife play foreplay. Bonnie and Rudy’s interactions continue to develop nicely, Jeremy shined, Kol shined, Shane shined, and there were other people in the episode.

Quotes from the Podcast:

On Rebekah: “Story-wise, it was good, but from a viewing standpoint, it was tiring, because of this show being what it is, because of it’s history. The point isn’t to get Rebekah out of this situation; that’s not why they’re writing it the way they’re writing it. It’s because they enjoy this type of stuff. And ( Read more... )

Co-hosts: Cana and Olu
In this episode, we’re told that it is possible to paralyze a Hybrid (?), a curfew is called after the mayor’s son gets shot yet no curfew has been called when other citizens of Mystic Falls have died (?), and Tyler is in Damon’s list of contacts (?). Rebekah succumbing to werewolf venom leaves us pondering werewolf/vampire ( Read more... )

Co-hosts: Janine and Jennifer

No meta will be found here. After two seasons away from the show, JAJP’s original hosts come back for a reunion! I attempt to explain what a doppelganger is and why turning Abby into a vampire kept Esther from executing her spell (it’s hard, y’all), we’re all proud of Caroline’s part in this episode’s plan, Janine ( Read more... )

Co-hosts: Cana and Olu

In this episode, Olu, Cana, and I react to Julie Plec’s post-finale interviews and season 4 previews, and we cast our wishes for each of the characters for season 4.

Quotes of the Podcast: “I feel like Stefan should fade away from Elena, because now she’s basically Katherine. As soon as, or the first time, she compels somebody ( Read more... )

Co-hosts: Cana and Olu

In the last episode of the season, everyone's suddenly worried that the Originals are after Elena despite the fact that Klaus was put on ice before he could tell anyone the link between Alaric and Elena. Olu explains why Elena dying comes one season too late; Matt gets some history that doesn't make much sense and he's way too ( Read more... )
