The Vampire Diaries Round Table: "Bad Moon Rising"
Matt Richenthal at .Welcome to this week's edition of The Vampire Diaries Round Table!
Following an episode that shed new light on the Lockwoods, paired up Alaric with Jenna and gave us a closer look at Caroline as a vampire, our staff has gathered to analyze "Bad Moon Rising." Join the discussion below in our Comments section and/our our show forum...
What was your favorite quote from the episode?
M.L. House: Gotta go with Caroline calling out Stefan for his impressive ability to brood. I laughed out loud at the reference to his "Hey, it's Tuesday" face.
ViddWizard: Damon's reply to Alaric: "There is a huge asterisk next to that statement: he came back to life." I love Damon's wit
Elena: Damon to Vanessa: "If you wanna see me naked, all you have to do is ask."
What do you think of Caroline as a vampire so far?
M.L. House: I think she's hilarious. If Damon is conflicted and Stefan is melancholy, Caroline is a breath of light-hearted, immortal air. You know, like an insecure, neurotic control freak... on crack.
ViddWizard: Rockin' my socks off! Should have changed her last year.
Elena: I'm actually pleasantly surprised with Caroline as a vampire. I almost like her better than human Caroline. I didn't expect them to have her actually bite Matt, but it is The Vampire Diaries, and it did play a part in her ending the relationship to save his life.
Elena ending her friendship with Damon: Fair or foul?M.L. House: Totally foul. Let's face it, people: Jeremy is annoying! His brooding makes Stefan's Tuesday face look downright joyful. He's also sort of a wimp. Elena should be thanking Damon for almost ending her brother's life. The last she can do is flash the guy.
ViddWizard: Given his recent tantrum after he tried to kiss her (in which he killed Jeremy), I would say fair.
Elena: The thing that makes it fair is the ring. Damon didn't see it, which makes what he did totally unforgivable.
Come up with a relationship nickname for Alaric and Jenna.
M.L. House: Anna. It fits, and its an homage to Jeremy's recently-lost love.
ViddWizard: Really? who started this trend? Okay... Alenna. Wait, that's actually kinda cute.
Elena: Jelaric.
Who would win in a fight: Mason Lockwood or Jacob Black?
M.L. House: Jacob. He could do it with two abs tied behind his back.
ViddWizard:I am going with Mason. He just seems a bit scrappier to me.
Elena: Definitely Mason Lockwood. Jacob's wolf is bear-sized, but Mason has more wolf experience.
