This is a Vampire spin-off from "The Vampire Diaries" based in New Orleans. There are Vampires called "The Originals" - they are vampires that can never be killed or die. They can only be put to "rest" by these special type daggers. Who Klaus (the protagnist) in this show/story are in possession of. There are 7 central characters:

Klaus Michaelson (Original Vampire and is related to Elijah and Rebekah) Klaus is a misunderstood character. He is potentially flawed, complex, layered but deep down as the episodes progressed the writers/tptb showed us he feels, loves and wants and craves unconditional love just like everyone else. All be it, he kills and is at times seems to be a "cold blooded killer" this is the essense of who Klaus is. He loves his family above all else, he seems to be incredibly jealous of what his siblings have as far as potential life partners (love), he forever seeks their approval and is destined to go thru life with them and only them. It would be great to see if this "selfish bond" could be broken. It seems that Elijah is trying to redeem his brother thru the birth of his child by teaching him about "unconditional love". Although, I fear in the process, Elijah has fallen victim to "unconditional love" by falling in love with Hayley, the baby's mother. We are seeing a very complex story written out and at the same time with all the speed bumps, it's leaves us wanting more. The writers and tptb are very talented and skilled at this process. :cheer: They are building up different layers to Klaus' redemption for his child for himself for his family very delicately. I am looking forward to next week's episode.

Elijah Michaelson (Original Vampire) - Elijah is a character that was built on intergrity, honor and drop dead gorgeousness. What can be said. Calgon take me away. :cloud9: He promised, his word that no harm would come to Hayley or her baby and he lived up to it and then some! He took out the head witch Angus, who wanted to kill Hayley and her baby. He snapped the bitches head straight off! "Nobody messes with my family!" were his exact words. Elijah Michaelson, you are my bodyguard! :cloud9: He protected Hayley when she was running in the woods from that crazy, blood thristy, vengeful Tyler (Who was after Klaus technically but went after Hayley? Well The tag team of Elijah/Klaus taught him a lesson that day!) He protected her from so many different situations, the wolves in the bayou, the vampires that wanted to kill her because of Marcel. EJijah is Hayley's man thru and thru. I love the way they are building this couple up. How many almost kisses?

Rebekah Michaelson (Original Vampire) - Ah my dear Rebekah who is so misunderstood by her brother Klaus. Or maybe not? He just doesn't want her to be happy because he isn't happy. Rebekah was in love with Marcel who was human before coming a vampire. BUT, he was in love with Rebekah for a lontime before that. They danced around there feeling for many years. That was until Marcel grew up. He then started to want to act on those feelings, Rebekah wanted him too also. Elijah was happy for them. (Elijah was not like Klaus in that way, don't ask me why maybe because he had loved?) Anyway, Klaus found out about them and made Marcel decide do you want to kill her or become a vampire? Marcel choose the later. He became a vampire. He broke Rebekah's heart. Klaus staked her and put her to sleep I believe for over 50 years. They don't age they don't die "Originals" they just go to sleep when you stake them. She awoke she Marcel, he walked away. Klaus told her he had to teach her a lesson and that she had been asleep for 50 or 60 something years... FF present day, Marcel and Klaus are aligned "tick as thieves again" only this time, Marcel is the "King of New Orleans", we are yet to finf out why the Michaelson fled New Orleans 100 years ago...

Marcel - was a child when taken in by Klaus, he was a slave for a family on an estate close by to theirs, I believe. When Klaus saw Marcel getting beat by the person who was his "owner" (such a degrding term) he interfered, I believe he killed the man; rescued Marcellus (Which meant "Warrior" I believe something like that) because it reminded him of the beating he used to get from there father. Klaus was a "freak of nature" to their father and never accepted by the family (well the father). SO, he endured terrible beating beyond what anyone could compare. He related to Marcellus. He took him in as his own son. A bond was formed. He became part of the family.

Hayley -is a werewolf like Klaus but not a hybrid. Hayley is half human, half werewolf, whereas, Klaus is half vampire, half werewolf. They had a one-night stand which resulted in Hayley becoming pregnant with his child. That is pretty much it between those two, there was no relationship, no feelings, nothing between them, just this baby. Whereas, when Hayley came back to town and met Klaus' brother Elijah. The fireworks began! You could feel the sparks, it was kismet. It was like two old souls that were meant too be together. The scenes between them ever since, have been intense, it reminds me of EJami in a way. They have this "intense chemistry", this "presence", this "force", this "push and pull" between them that cannot be ignored. I will post some montages and clips when I'm done explaining the characters.

Cami - (Cami is Father Kiernan niece and the sister of the guy who was killed in New Orleans. She was compelled by Klaus in order to protect her from knowing too much about what was really going on in New Orleans with the vampires and werewolves. Who are btw, the 2 warring factions.) The ending of the last episode, Cami starts to remember everything! All the memories that Klaus had compelled her to forget started coming back and she was screaming in pain in the church. This is NOT GOOD YAWL!

Davina (Is a powerful young teenage witch being held captive by Marcel until recently, when Elijah promised her protection, freedom and to ability to learn more "powerful spells" from his own mother's grimoire book of spells. Up until this point she was on the vampires side (well she deflected from Marcel's side to Elijah's/Klaus' side because of Elijah and his "honor". As of the last episode we really don't know what happened to her but we think she is with Cami. (NOT GOOD!)

Father Kiernan (He hides the vampires secret in town and Cami is his niece. It is to be believed his nephew went "mad" and killed himself. Klaus is investigating this story and Marcel might have more to do with it then he is letting on.) He is apart of a powerful human counsel in town that controls what goes on.

Sophie Deveraux (Witch) she started the "Witches Harvest" which brought problems for the witches to be expelled from New Orleans to pratice magic. She was working in tandem with Marcel and also sleeping with him. They were what you call "magical powerful friends with benefits" She is still alive and looking to seek revenge and kill Davina to resurrect her dead sister who was a witch. (Who died by the hands of Marcel and the vampires.)

Caught up on the show this week and caught up on the thread. The show got a lot better and it didn't go the expected route with Haley and Jackson. I was worried for Marcel there for a moment. I do fear The Originals will go the Klaus/Haley/Elijah triangle route, but they may surprise me. Cami is my favorite girl on the show right now and I like her difficult relationship with Klaus.

I loved the scenes where Klaus gave Rebekah hope. My eyeballs were sweating. ;) It does break my heart that this might be the last we see of Rebekah. I still hate we've lost Claire. She's the sister and she's important!

I knew that was Finn with their mother because of how the guy carried himself. Are they in different bodies because they couldn't get the original actors who played the characters?

Glad Davina and Josh survived. I am worried for Davina though. Her working with Mikael can't be good. This could backfire.

I'm looking forward to season 2, and I'm hoping somewhere along the way they find a way to bring Rebekah back into the fold permanently.

Honestly, it upsets me the direction the show is going in. I fear they are headed towards Hayley and Klaus. (With Jackson and Elijah in the mix? :wtf: - I am not invested in "The Originals" for that.) Which I also feel is the absolute wrong thing to do. Yes, they had sex, but it was a "ONS" they never had a relationship, repeatedly throughout the season, Klaus has stated, "save the baby - I don't care what happens to the girl" - "or kill them both". SO, I am not feeling the pairing of these two characters. I think it is wrong to build a relationship based off the sake of the child. There are so many parents who "co-parent" and are friends, yet maintain a civil relationship for the sake of their child.

Whew that felt good.

Regarding the ensemble cast, they have an excellent one. I love Marcel, Josh, Davina and Cami. They are shinning starts to me. They really bring out the best in the leads in the show. :cheer:

From what I've heard Claire Holt will be making "guest stint" appearances on the show. (From time to time -- They did not specify the frequency though). For me she was the biggest loss to the show. Julie Plec said they knew from the beginning of the season! :yikes: I thought they had just learned the news when "Fairwell to Storyville" had aired that night. By far one of the best episodes of the season. :worthy:

When all the dust settled, I was so happy that Davina and Josh survived the aftermath of so many deaths and battles. But, I think they will be around for awhile, they have many stories to tell yet. Besides, I think Davina might the new leader of the coven. just some speculation on my part of course -- but the way she is controlling Mikael. It leads me to believe she is the "Big Bad Witch" in NOLA now, so these new witches and warlock will be in her fold. (Lenore and Kaleb). But ultimately this might be Ester's endgame, who knows? I am not 100% sure... A way to get to her grand-daughter Hope???

I definitely think that Rebekah and Hope are coming back in season 2 but I just have no idea if it's the mid-season finale or finale leading into season 3.

I'm worried for my Elijah enduring a lot of BS this season.
