HOWEVER, in mentioning Elena, it's time to point out one of my frustrations with the episode: the vampire diaries to and for Elena. She's in a coma. She told them to write. We get it. The journal entries are a great way to show that they're thinking about her and trying to fulfill their promise to keep her apprised of all that's happening while she's sleeping, but this cannot continue indefinitely or it will get very, very boring. Nina Dobrev has left the building. Keep it moving.
When Dobrev left the series, she wrote a beautiful tribute to her time on the show. "I always knew I wanted Elena's story to be a six season adventure, and within those six years I got the journey of a lifetime. I was a human, a vampire, a doppelganger, a crazy immortal, a doppelganger pretending to be human, a human pretending to be a doppelganger," she wrote in an Instagram post. "I got kidnapped, killed, resurrected, tortured, cursed, body-snatched, was dead and undead, and there's still so much more to come before the season finale in May. Elena fell in love not once, but twice, with two epic soulmates, and I myself made some of the best friends I'll ever know and built an extended family I will love forever."
The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Complete
Stefan and Caroline's friendship had been strong for a few seasons, but finally cultivated into l-o-v-e during Season 6. (Praise!) He was there for her as she mourned the loss of her mother, the two shut off their humanity together, and basically, totally fell in love (read: had very aggressive vampire sex).
I've just spent the most beautiful weekend on Lake Lanier in Georgia with my own TVD Family, the cast and crew of The Vampire Diaries. I want to be the first to tell you that it wasn't just a holiday celebration, it was a goodbye party. I always knew I wanted Elena's story to be a six season adventure, and within those six years I got the journey of a lifetime. I was a human, a vampire, a doppelganger, a crazy immortal, a doppelganger pretending to be human, a human pretending to be a doppelganger. I got kidnapped, killed, resurrected, tortured, cursed, body-snatched, was dead and undead, and there's still so much more to come before the season finale in May. Elena fell in love not once, but twice, with two epic soulmates, and I myself made some of the best friends I'll ever know and built an extended family I will love forever.
October came with great news for TVD fans. On October 9th, hearts of million of fans fought again, because the great phenomenon called The Vampire Diaries came back with season 7. This show is known as creating obsession trough fans and even little wars. Even if we talk about the constant battle between Delen and Stelena fans, or who's hotter? Ian or Paul? Vampires or werewolves? And when the original vampires packed their bags and made their own TV show called the Originals, fans got the great opportunity to see two parallel worlds and enjoyed every bite, every fang and bayed attention till the last drop of blood.
Season 7 started bad even before October. The great minus on this season is that the maine girl, Elena Gilbert, played by Nina Dobrev is no longer in the show. Which means no more lead couple, no more lead to protect. So Julie Plec had to come with a twisted story, new characters and something to catch people's attention. So she did. This seasons welcomes a new species of vampires, called heretics which are also witches and they're under Mama Salvatore's protection.
It has been far too long since a new episode of The Vampire Diaries aired, but we've got some spoilers to stave off your withdrawal! We caught up with the cast, creator Julie Plec, and producer Caroline Dries during a group interview at Comic-Con, and they spilled on what to expect from the season seven premiere. If you recall, the season finale killed off a lot \u2014 including Elena, for the next 70 years or so. But don't worry! Season seven sounds just as exciting as ever. We already have the trailer and pictures to prove it! Read on to find out more about the villains and the romances.\n","id":37882259,"type":"gallery","photo_source":"Image Source: The CW","permalink":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/Vampire-Diaries-Season-7-Details-37882259","canonical":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/Vampire-Diaries-Season-7-Details-37882259","share_text":"The Vampire Diaries: 8 Exciting Things We Know About Season 7","use_tall_image":false,"omit_from_countdown":false,"caption_num":false,"slide_tags":"The Vampire DiariesComic-ConFall TVTV","is_cover":true},"image":"https:\/\/media1.popsugar-assets.com\/files\/thumbor\/TqkjAweHRMNXNTc1thPnbhnFd5w\/fit-in\/1024x1024\/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-\/2015\/07\/11\/226\/n\/1922283\/c7ef235f1167bf5b_VD601a_0066b\/i\/Gang-Headed-European-Holiday.jpg","share_image":"https:\/\/media1.popsugar-assets.com\/files\/thumbor\/j3Smrjp8XtF40_o25m1gM6m-mxg\/fit-in\/2048xorig\/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-\/2015\/07\/11\/226\/n\/1922283\/c7ef235f1167bf5b_VD601a_0066b\/i\/Gang-Headed-European-Holiday.jpg","title":"The Gang Is Headed on a European Holiday","intro_text":false,"body":"Not only is everyone dealing with Elena's absence (which the cast talked about on the panel), but don't forget that Jo and her babies with Alaric are murdered. \"When we meet Bonnie and Damon, they're with Alaric in Europe on a binge-drinking tour,\" said creator Julie Plec.
