Vampire Diaries CWTV – Episode 5

After tonight’s episode of the Vampire Diaries, I am once more at a loss. This episode lost all of the momentum from last week‘s cliffhanger ending. Seriously. First of all, it was so slow! I couldn’t even believe it because I had it DVR’d and it still seemed to crawl at a snail’s pace. The only good parts were when Elena cut her finger and Stefan vamped out, and then the part where Damon was chasing Caroline and got fried by the sun (note to self: he definitely did not sparkle when hit by sunlight – SWEET!!!) Even at the end where Damon bites Vicky, its just so predictable – it would have been so much better if she’d seen him eat all her stoner friends. For me, the only good parts were Jeremy sticking up for himself, and the last few minutes when Elena works it all out, ending with the dramatic….“What are you?”

Still, I have to ask myself – were the two minutes at the end worth watching the entire episode? Jury’s still out on that one.
