Just wanted to say that I have never read any of the books " The Discovery of Witches" and there's nothing wrong with that. But I thought that Vampire Diaries was better then this series.
Now don't get me wrong I don't know if I absolutely hate the show or if I do not like it. I love all the characters Ysabeau is a Queen. Not just because her name is iconic, love her name, but because she's just a relatable kind of person where she lost her husband she's kind of like you're kind killed him and then I got my revenge somewhat you know stuff like that I just I just like her so much I don't know why. She's probably one of my favorite characters other than Diana's aunt Emily I love Emily too she's she's also a Queen.
Sorry I got side track just talking about my 2 favorite queens in this TV series.. Diana is annoying, I tried my hardest to like her from the 1st season I was like "OK like she's she's great", but then like episode 3 of season 1 she confesses her love for him even she though in episode 1she thought he was weird. Then they were like confessing their love to each other and I thought "Hey, hey guys you're moving too fast right now like we're still in season 1 episode 3". Its because you're not supposed to be confessing your love right now. At least confess in like I don't know episode 6. Then it's just the little things that she has done that just made me kind of iffy of her. Its just simple things like putting the blame on her aunts after she finds out about the Covenant. She was the one that did not want to have anything to do with witches and magic and wanted to live a normal human life, but then once she finds her "love of her life". She's mad at THEM for not telling her about what goes on in the other world, WHEN SHE wanted nothing to do with it.
I felt bad for Mathew because he felt like he wasn't worthy of her love when in fact she really isn't worthy of Mathew. I felt like he could've done so much better, because Matthew is awesome. Love Matthew, Love Marcus love everybody including Denenmico or whatever his name was. He's annoying but he plays his character well. I even liked Juliette even though she had her issues.
Then I made it to season 3 cause I've binged watched the TV series and I thought "Hey season 2 is going to be different she's learning magic and is going to timewalk. The aunts told her about not altering the past and that she had to follow the rules of time walking." I was sadly wrong. The first thing she does is adopt a child that should not have been adopted. But its okay though all she has to do is listen to Matthew's warnings ⚠️ 🙄..... NOPE disregarded that to. He told her not to give the freaking vampire priest her blood and then she proceeds to give the vampire priest her blood and then her son that she was not supposed to have in the first place was supposed to die in the past. Not come back to the present. But he ends up coming to the freaking present and then he kills all these people and that clearly she does not care about.
Anyways overall I will continue to watch the TV series just wanted to share my thoughts and frustrations with the series.
P.S. can anyone tell me why they changed Baldwin?? Like I make it to season 3 and I see this new guy. I thought that someone new joined the congregation while Mathew and Diana where in the past. Come to find out its Baldwin who was shorter then Mathew and had darker hair in season 1 and 2, now he's taller then Mathew and his hair and eye color aren't even the same.
