Storyline

Although Caroline is in no mood to celebrate her 18th birthday, Elena, Bonnie and Matt surprise her with a small party in an unusual location. Damon and Stefan disagree on the best way to handle Klaus, and a reckless Stefan decides to test his theory by taking things to dangerous extremes. Bonnie is concerned when Elena tells her about Jeremy's new plans. At a Founder's meeting, Alaric once again runs into Dr. Fell, who is in the middle of an argument with her ex-boyfriend, the medical examiner. Tyler refuses to go along with Klaus' latest demand, and is surprised when Klaus seems to accept his decision.

Another boring one :(

I really loved TVD from the third of the first season all through the second but this third one so far is a great disappointment. Nina used to be really good in the crying scenes but the part where she was with Stefan in the car and right after was straight annoying. I kinda like how Paul portrays a bad guy but I hate how Stefan is now the old Damon and vice versa. It doesn't make the story any more interesting, on the contrary.

It was good to see Bonnie telling Elena how bad it was for her to take away Jeremy's free will in the last episode - unfortunately she took it all back at the end of this episode, I was disappointed.

I wish Damon would stop obsessing about Elena and got himself a proper girlfriend but it's probably not gonna happen. It's just sad to see him this pathetic, truth to be told.

I liked the gentle side of Klaus, he really seems genuinely lonely - although I doubt his intentions are honourable.

I worry about Alaric, he seems to choose bad women to hang out with (with good old Jenna being the exception) Dr. Fell seems to be really bad news.

The show has slowed down significantly after the last season's admirable tempo, I hope it'll pick up soon!
