Reason why I give this show a 2 out of 5 stars is because the people picked for the casting of this program are terrible actors. The only actors I liked were Alaric and Hope. Everyone else didn’t give that sense of seriousness this show needs to be given like in Vampire Diaries and Originals. Also the mythical legends the kept popping up within the show was pointless and repetitive. At least in the other two shows they had a plot. Stated in the previous show “Vampire Diaries” it was said that Caroline, Alaric, Jeremy, and Bonnie were all suppose to take place in the Salvatore school. Yet Jeremy was only shown maybe once and Caroline was really never seen. This show doesn’t resemble the creativity the first two shows had. This show seemed put together very carelessly. Nevertheless I’m only on season two but I’m still not impressed.
