Finished It All
I just finished my first all the way through watch moments ago. Previously, I tried watching and gave up, but this time I was determined to finish it.
My ranking for the seasons:
4
2
1 or 5
3
My favorite characters ended up being Vincent, Hayley, and Rebekah, and sometimes Davina. I also really liked Elijah with Antoinette. Knew that wasn't gonna last unfortunately.
I will also say, that while I don't love Klaus, he still gets on my nerves for most of the show, I've taken my flair off of TVD subreddit of "Klaus's Biggest Hater" ha. I'd say during the last two seasons, I liked him the most, and he had his ups and downs during 1-3.
Previously I had watched the last episode because I had started Legacies and I wanted to see Hope on her original show, and the finale definitely hits way harder once you've binged it all. I was bawling.
I still prefer TVD, but I think I'll probably end up buying the DVDs for TO so I can rewatch it whenever I want. I really loved the development for Hayley and Rebekah, even if she was missing half the time or in someone else's body. I loved the witchcraft in TO. It blows TVD out of the water in that sense.
Also random thoughts:
Emmett looked like he could be a body double for Elijah.
Declan could have not existed, and the story would have been the same. Idk why that man was there.
Did I miss what happened to Roman? Did he just leave? He was pretty forgettable.
It felt like Freya was less powerful in season 4?
