Because I did not say so last night:
HOW AMAZING IS THE CW RIGHT NOW?
First of all, HELLCATS, which is giving me a ridic love for Ashley Tisdale, which I honestly DID NOT SEE COMING. But it DID, and it's WONDERFUL, and ATizz is awesome and the character is awesome and BTW DID I MENTION THE AWESOME?
Like, yes, there are other things, but for me it is so clearly The Story of Savannah and ILHER. That is all.
And then VAMPIRE DIARIES, which is- y'all, I don't even know how to FRAME it. If this were a normal show, we wouldn't be up to these plot twists until season six at LEAST.
I love basically everyone on this show.
-I love how Bonnie is feeling guilty, but is rational enough in her guilt to be like "I said it's your fault if anything happens. SOMETHING HAPPENED" when Damon was like "I DIDN'T DO IT :("
-Caroline Forbes, I love your FACE. I love everything about Caroline, for serious, and I love that she told Damon she remembers and I love that she kicked his ass. And I love that she does the vampire things but is so NICE about them. CAROLINE YOU ARE GRATE.
-Also, Matt, you are the ACTUAL BEST BOYFRIEND EVER. I'm really glad that he's more than just Elena's ex with the dead sister.
-This is kind of a case-in-point of why it's dumb for Elena to protect people from the information about vampires. Caroline thought she was going through it ALONE and that no one knew about vampires except Damon, who mindraped her. :( :( :( But Elena and Bonnie were like &OUR CAROLINE; and :DDDD
-I love how much Elena loves her friend, so that she'd protect her and refuse to let her get hurt, while Damon's all "Vampires are bad! I'LL GO STAKE HER. :D? :D?"
-And as a side note on how awesome Nina Dobrev has being: I found myself thinking "Wow, Katherine wasn't in this episode at ALL, even though she's a regular, weird," like her absence is as strange as Alaric's or somethihng. (Is he a regular? He should be.)
-DAMON. I love how he is the town's voice of sanity (DAMON. Voice of SANITY.) and is so clearly going to be mayor of Mystic Falls. I kind of love the idea of Damon baby-sitting the town that he doesn't want to like but loves despite himself the same way that Elena has to baby-sit Damon.
-EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MY VD SHIPPING PREFERENCES: When Stefan was telling Jeremy how to kill him, I was like "That would be really slashy if he wasn't Elena's BROTHER, ew." Meanwhile, I just assume that Stefan will go home to join Elena and Damon in bed. VD YOU ARE THE OT3IEST.
-I wish VD would stop killing off people who like Bonnie. MAYBE IF SHE WERE HAPPIER, SHE WOULDN'T FEEL THE NEED TO SET DAMON ON FIRE ALL THE TIME, OKAY? >:(
-I have absolutely no idea what season it is in Mystic Falls right now. Do they just not have summer there? I guess that's helpful for the vampires, who want to avoid sunlight.
-Okay, my one serious problem with Vampire Diaries right now: HOW HAVE THEY NOT FIGURED OUT IT'S WEREWOLVES? This is not rocket science! Like, yes, we have the lingering shots of REALLY OBVIOUS CLUES. But FFS, Damon read Twilight; GEE WHAT IS A MONTHLY TRANSITION? And Tyler is even worse. He knows he gets really angry, about once a month, and something ~changes~ in him and then he can't remember. He lives in a town where they know vampires are real and he got hurt by an anti-supernatural thing. CLUES.
Meanwhile, post-BB season is in high form, with Brit, Ragan, and Matt all giving awesomesauce interviews. (UCLA is totally a place!) And Matt and his wife have been staying at Ragan's house, where Matt is
