The « kill an original, kill the bloodline » thing, was already revealed last year. So why are they acting like it's the big finding of the season? Also, why didn't Sage rip Damon's head off, after he threatened her? Wasn't she supposed to be super powerful? This is why the show became a pain to watch. Instead of trying to push their own silly agendas, Dries and Plec should've concentrated on the script, not just the sleeping around. I don't care about Elena feeling conflicted about her feelings towards Damon. And have Rose's ghost approval to pursue their fling. And try to convince the general audience, through the Jeremy character, that it's a great thing. Or even Tyler crawling out of his cave, to share a moment with Caroline. When we know he's leaving again eventually. So who cares if he dies, or that Rebekah is secretly in love with Matt? The storylines are a mess lately, and writers don't seem to know where it's going. The funniest part was when Esther said she didn't care if her daughter killed her, because she's already dying. That's how stupid the show got. That end twist was nice, but we know it's a cop out, and that nothing different will come out of it. This new team of writers, has no skills and don't take risks (killing off Elena to sire her to Damon, is stating the obvious). And I still can't believe they've lasted five more seasons, with such mediocre show runners...
