Glad that you liked it, smitten. I'm still annoyed. I obviously can hold a grudge. Ha. Watched the last season of The Originals, and I liked it. Their season ender was pretty good too. It was announced that the upcoming season (Season 5) will be the last season for The Originals. Thanks a lot, Julie Plec! You finish TVD and give us so much potential with The Originals to pick up where TVD left off and then this? GRRRRRR. The trailer that played at Comic Con this weekend had a little too much Caroline & Klaus that made me think they may just reship that couple.

I'm bummed, but I'd rather they end it while it's good rather than running it into the ground.

The Originals has a better track record as far as story goes, so hopefully it won't be run into the ground like TVD. But, so far I'm uncomfortable with the parallel that I'm seeing of a good season ender that could have been a series finale. Same thing happened with TVD in the 7th season.
I actually like the idea of Caroline coming back to kick Klaus into submission. Haha. I just hope that their ship doesn't eat the show like Delena did. I'm totally invested in Elijah, so I'm hoping that his storyline is satisfying.

Hello out there! Anyone still watching The Originals? Poor Hailey. Elijah is never going to forgive himself once he snaps out of his amnesia.

I’m still watching! This show is one of only three that I watch—I’m almost fully weaned off of network tv.

Our viewing habits are saying something. It’s actually the only network show I religiously follow. Handmaid’s Tale and Claws are the only other shows that I try to watch immediately after an episode is released.
Anyway, DAMN! That was some heroically sad business. I watched the Afterbuzz TV roundup of the episode yesterday too, and the actor who plays the delicious Marcel directed this episode. He did a phenomenal job. I loved the focus on the faces of the actors during the action scenes. He needs to direct more shows.

I’m really going to miss this one when it’s gone, though I hear they’re going to do a spin-off with Hope. I find this incarnation of her pretty annoying. I wouldn’t be shocked if Hayley comes back as a ghost, a la Bonnie in Vampire Diaries.

She’ll be back somehow. Charles Michael Davis (Marcel) said so. I just don’t know how - Ghost, human, werewolf, vampire, or memory. My money is on memory as in when Elijah finally gets his back.

I wouldn’t be shocked if Hayley comes back as a ghost, a la Bonnie in Vampire Diaries. The spin-off is called Legacies and will air on Thursdays in the fall. It's supposed to focus on the Salvatore School for Exceptional Children (or something like that). Hope and Alaric are the characters they've talked about as the focus.

I know a lot of people don't like Hayley/the actress, but I've always enjoyed her. I was sorry to see her go. And yeah, Elijah is going to have a really hard time with this when he gets his full memories back. That said, I do like the woman who's playing his girlfriend now. I've seen her in other shows and always liked her.
I kind of like this Hope better than the kid they were using last season. But then I'm not a fan of precocious children in tv shows. The spin-off sounds interesting enough and I'm sure I'll watch.
