i really really want to like the show. but it sucks.its not about vampires and werewolves and witches. its now all around hope and some weird supernatural monsters that seem scary but they get defeated pretty much with no effort. and what the hell happened to hope? shouldn't she be a badass Michaelson? the kid-hope in originals is way way better than this version. this show needs to get back to its roots which is vampires, werewolves, and witches. its like a really really really bad kid series. TVD was highschooly but that was brutal and fun too. this isn't.
