Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 8 Elena and Rebekah take part in a power struggle, until Rebekah reveals the woman’s family’s ancient secrets and violent past with Klaus. Meanwhile, Damon tries a reckless new approach to generate a breakthrough with Stefan.
The Vampire Diaries begins as yet another teen-drama. The main character is a 17 year old young lady named Elena Gilbert, who’s parents died four months prior in a very car crash. She’s now being taken care of by her aunt Jenna as well as lives with her young, 15 year old pal Jeremy.
At first I imagined this show wasn’t of the same quality. But after comparing the item to other new exhibits, and watching the second season I must say this is pretty much a vampire classic, right next to Buffy. Every episode is clever from learn to finish, the cast is good, and they keep incorporating more characters. It has it’s unexpected cheesy moments but so do all great demonstrates, and here it’s simple.
Elena quickly meets a new mysterious new boy, Stefan Salvatore. Immediately, they find themselves drawn to one another. Their romance blossoms while the two swoon over the other person, and they become a service.
Cue Stefan’s older sibling, the bad boy Damon that has returned to the Virginian town of Mystic Falls having a secret plan. He too, finds himself drawn to Elena and also a love triangle starts to help unfold. However Damon & Stefan maintain a secret-they were both turned into vampires by an ex-girlfriend in 1864. The ex-girlfriend, Katherine, happens to have Elena while her doppelganger.
Add in a witchy best ally Bonnie, the comedic, sometimes shallow, relief Caroline, Elena’s ex-boyfriend Matt, the history teacher Alaric who holds their own secrets, and Tyler, and you have a fantastic supporting cast.
The first 2-3 episodes are average. They have their magnificent moments, but none of promoted stands out. Don’t be so quick to evaluate the show, however. Once you hit the actual sixth episode, the show really starts to start. There’s blood, romance, passion, betrayal, revenge, humor, everything someone could possibly want in a TV show. Some people write this show off as yet another teen-angst or a Twilight-wannabe (which is actually untrue, seeing how The Vampire Diaries books became available almost fifteen years BEFORE Twilight) nonetheless they are wrong. These vampires don’t sparkle for example, and the characters will not run around acting constipated.
