The tomb was opened, and Damon finally got to take his Catherine. Only…she wasn’t there. There were a bunch of truly messed up vampires though, that looked like they could use about ten gallons of night cream. Anna manages to get her mother out, after using Elena as a little pick me up for her mom. YUCK.

The scene where Jeremy searches for vampires was intriguing. My theory? The memory trick didn’t work on him, and he’s on to Anna, and the rest of them. Go Jeremy, way to get a clue!

I was sad for Bonnie’s loss of her Gram, but amazed by her acting. She’s a great little crier that one. Definitely believable.

As for Elena and Damon’s little moments…that’s a sticky one. Poor Stefan-he’s always competing with his brother over a girl. Why can’t he just be the only one? I feel for him. At the same time, Damon is so sexy, I can see Elena’s struggle with that. Hmmmmm. The love triangle is developing further.

I wasn’t going to start watching, I told myself I wouldn’t, but now I’m hooked. I actually think I like some of the plot lines a bit more than Twilight (I know traitor right?) I’m only a few episodes in but it’s a great show.

There’s Stefan, the sexy vampire that’s good. He’s very similar to Edward. But then throw in his brother Dameon and it spices things up a knotch. Dameon is a bad boy in the worst way. He’s wrecking havoc on the town by feeding on its inhabitants. Stefan is trying to stop him, but he’s hard to keep up with. Dameon makes you say what is adhd compared to his constant change of mind and need for entertainment. Unfortunately his need results in the death of the townspeople.

Then there’s Elena the “bella” of the diaries. I love that she’s strong, unlike Bella. She even says “I’m not going to let my world fall apart over some boy.” I love that!

This show is a lot more graphic than the Twilight books or movie, so sometimes it’s scary. It’s also a lot more steamy than her PG books. That can be good and bad about the series. I love the Twilight books, so I guess it’s kind of unfair to compare the two. The show is great because we’ll get more vampire moments, but the books are great for allowing us to use our imagination.
