TVD- What you need to know for the season finale!
Last nights TVD episode was shocking, to say the least. SPOILER ALERT: Stefan got his heart ripped out of his chest by a traveler inhabiting Tyler’s body. And if you think that was shocking, you’re going to die watching the season finale!!!
According to Julie Plec the finale is full of “suffering and celebration.” Is that even a possible combination? The episode is titled,”Project Kaboom” and the promo reveals that it involves Damon trying to blow up the town to stop the travelers curse. Although the preview has a light hearted tone, don’t be fooled. Here’s what you need to know going into it next Thursday!
It is jaw-dropping according to Michael Malarkey who plays Enzo. “When I read that final episode, my jaw hit the floor by the end of it,” he teased to The Hollywood Reporter. According to Malarkey, everyone is going to be left speechless by the finale’s cliffhanger. Ummm, is that a good thing or a bad thing? Because from what I’m seeing theres a trend and it involves a LOT of deaths.
Which brings us to the next thing– death. A total of three characters will die in the finale! Does that include Enzo and Stefan or are they an additional three characters? This could go either way. It could be Liv and Luke, which we wouldn’t really care about. Or it could be another main character like Damon. If this happens, I don’t think any of us would really make it out alive. While TVD doesn’t have a permanent death tracker, that’s all about to change! With the Other Side literally imploding, the finale deaths are going to be completely permanent. Yes, that means no more visiting ANY of our ghostly friends!
Damon will play a central role in the finale. Ian Somerhalder admitted to E! News that the finale involves him a really cool way, as Damon plays a pivotal part. “It will be Damon’s big moment with another lady in Mystic Falls that will have people talking after the finale airs,” Ian told TV Guide. Here’s what I’m thinking! The promo shows that Caroline’s mom, Liz Forbes plays a key role doing god-knows-what with Markos. I doubt she has a passenger in her body. Is she the lady helping Damon? Does she die in the end? I can definitely see why that would be upsetting to fans and make us cry….. ugly cry that is.
According to Julie Plec, the finale will leave you ugly crying. She tweeted about her being a sobbing, mess while watching the directors cut. Uh-oh. That’s kind of a given though… if people are dying, you can bet your ass I’m crying!
So, why are we crying? Who is dying? Will Stefan and co. find a way to return from the dead before the Other Side implodes? And who is this other lady Damon’s plotting with? We’ve had such good progress on the Damon and Elena front, I’d hate to go back to point A. I do think Damon’s pivotal part has something to do with saving the two most important men in his life– his best friend Enzo and his brother, Stefan.
Killing Stefan off would literally ruin the show!!!In a way, TVD is a telling of Stefan’s story. He’s the hero whether we like to admit it or not. While I’m a Delena shipper, I feel like Stefan is central to the success and progress of everyone in Mystic Falls. He can’t just die. Unfortunately, Paul Welsey has confirmed that Stefan’s character is gone for good. After last night’s episode he tweeted, “Stefan is done-zo. Sorry guys.” But you know Paul, he’s quite the jokester. Let’s hope he’s playing a dirty trick on us!

It was bittersweet saying goodbye to plenty of shows in 2021, but the plus side is that it made room for a handful of new shows that are gearing up for their highly-anticipated premieres.
There are plenty of shows that we’re excited about, but since it’s too much for anyone person to take in, we’ve condensed it to a list including the best of the best.
These are all the shows already garnering and generating buzz in 2022 — even before they’ve premiered.
Check out our list of shows (mostly new, but also a few final seasons) that should be on your radar:
How I Met Your Father – Hulu
Fans of How I Met Your Mother can re-live all the magic with a new group of friends with Hilary Duff at the helm. It’s also giving us some Younger vibes, so call it the best of both worlds.
The gender-reversed comedy premieres Tuesday, Jan. 18 with the first two episodes and then on a weekly basis.
House of the Dragon – HBO Max
Even if the final season of “Game of Thrones” left a bad taste in your mouth, don’t worry, the prequel is here to serve as a palate cleanser. Set 200 years before GOT, it’s based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood and focuses on the a civil war within House Targaryen. There is no premiere date as of yet, but that hasn’t stopped us from holding our breath.
BEL-AIR – Peacock
Revivals get a bad rap, but they aren’t always terrible. We’ve seen success with Saved by the Bell and Roswell, so fingers-crossed that Bel-Air, a comedy reimagined as an hour-long drama, will deliver in the same way. Will Smith has signed on for the project alongside the original creators. Jabari Banks stars as Will, a young man who moves into the gated mansion of Bel-Air in modern-day America, and explores plenty of conflicts and biases. It has been picked up for two seasons prior to the premiere on Sunday, Feb. 13 with the first two episodes and then weekly episodes.
Ozark – Netflix (Fourth and final season)
We’re crossing the finish line on Ozark this year, which is arguably a good thing because I don’t know how much more my nerves could handle. And the end is likely something the Byrde family definitely wants after getting too wrapped up in a messy situation with the Mexican cartel. Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, and Julia Gardner all make this series an intoxicating binge from beginning to end, even if the fourth and final season is split up into two parts with the first half arriving on Netflix on January 21.
She-Hulk
Disney+ saw massive success with their Marvel shows, so it’s not a surprise that there’s a palpable excitement for She-Hulk starring Orphan Black’s Tatiana Maslany, a lawyer who has one small favor to ask: don’t make her angry. She’s the less-angry-but-just-as-green cousin of Bruce Banner, the Hulk, played by Mark Ruffalo, who is expected to make an appearance. No premiere date has been announced yet.
Inventing Anna – Netflix
Shonda Rhines is making her mark on Netflix with a series based on the true and shocking story of fashionable grifter Anna Delvey who faked being a German heiress to scam New York New Yorker’s into thinking she was a German heiress. Ozark’s secret weapon, Julia Gardner, works miracles as Delvey. The cast also stars Scandal’s Katie Lowes and Orange is the New Black’s Laverne Cox. This is a can’t miss limited series that hits Netflix on February 11.
Lord of the Rings – Amazon Prime
This is a big one for fans of the LOTR films! The television adaptation is a prequel set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings and features an ensemble cast — both new and familiar — as they confront an evil unlike ever before in the Second Middle Age. It will make its mark on Amazon Prime on September 22.
Stranger Things – Netflix
We’ve paid our dues waiting to catch up with the residents of Hawkins, Indiana. Only this time, the action will take us to California and Soviet Russia (because, yes, Hopper is alive — spoiler) as the group of friends tries to stop the supernatural entities of the Upside Down once and for all. A premiere date (for the fourth and possible final season) announcement is likely on the horizon, but our money is on late spring or early summer. After all, we’ve waited long enough!
Obi-Wan Kenobi – Disney+
Disney and Star Wars go hand-in-hand, and with the success of the recent The Book of Boba Fett and The Mandalorian, it only makes sense that they would dive into Jedi master Obi-Wan Kenobi. The series is set a decade after the events of Star Wars: Episode III—Revenge of the Sith. In a real treat, Ewan McGregor will reprise the titular role, while Hayden Christensen will return as Darth Vader. No premiere date has been announced.
