The Vampire Diaries: Goodbye Elena Gilbert, hello….?

vampire-diaries-season-6-because-photos-2

With news of Nina Dobrev’s impending exit from the show, I shoved aside feelings of guilt that many of us felt for complaining about the character of Elena Gilbert, and started to imagine a world in which the show could continue, and keep Delena as endgame…even if it meant saying goodbye to Damon. Let’s face it, if the Vampire Diaries pulls a True Blood style farewell to our female protagonist, riots in the form of 140 character tweets, will ensue. Elena, and her (our) six seasons of endurance deserves a happy ending, but not at the cost of turning her back on everything.

The Flash / Arrow: Loving Ray Palmer Part 2:

Read Part 1 First

With each new episode of Arrow, I think to myself, why hasn’t a Meta Human killed Ra’s Al Ghul yet?  Especially since, with this episode, it is apparent that Meta Humans may be able to acquire a flight plan alongside their road maps.

In Oliver’s assertion emotional entanglements being crucial to the cause, I am barely placated at the idea that science, super speed, or pseudo-Cyclops powers alone couldn’t kill Ra’s Al Ghul.

Whilst previews for the next episode heavily hint on the Lazarus Pits as the essence of life, Ray Palmer is the hero once more, in his scientific grounding for fans such as I.

The Flash/Arrow: Loving Ray Palmer Part 1:

Stepping out of the suit[s] and into fans’ loving arms, The Flash/ Arrow team up this week, was really about Ray Palmer, and learning to love him.the atom

Much like Eddie, whether or not to like Ray was debatable at first, but alas, with the absence of Oliver in The Flash’s all star team up, Ray stepped into the limelight, and showed us why we need to accept him.

Despite pining for Olicity to be a thing, putting off their inevitable union wasn’t something I was opposed to. After the ramifications of certain tv couples’ unions *cough* New Girl *cough* a show can become considerably tainted, and Olicity wouldn’t survive the drama; that with this week’s new episode, extends beyond Argus, Ra’s Al Ghul and Starling city. With Meta Humans acquainting themselves with a road map, the Arrow universe is becoming a bit overwhelming, to give Olicity the time it deserves.

Just over a week into the short hiatus beginning on all of our favourite CW shows, let’s do a quick recap of the Originals.

With Kol dead for the meantime, Rebekah; in her mortal body, is going to need another witch mentor in town. On top of that, Michaelson first-born (presumed dead, now alive) Freya, and Aunt Dalia mean business. With her whole life and ethics a lie, I’m excited for the day Mother Michaelson awakes.
