This is the 'grown-ups' version of The Vampire Diaries and is brilliant. Julie Plec really outdid herself as the creator of the Originals. Characters grow, learn and change from their experiences of the past in such a way that you easily find yourself really believing in them and becoming immersed in their stories. The writing is so brilliant that it becomes natural to sympathise and to, in some ways admire the worst and most incredibly violent characters. Although a very dark series, there are moments of real humour in the darkness. An amazing array of songs lay perfectly alongside each episode, music that will grip you and stay with always. It's a 'Must Watch' and will keep you watching right until the last moment, and then still leave you... wanting more.

Always been a fan of Klaus. He is the product of a world that chewed him up and spat him out without mercy. Now if only they did a series about Damon's adventures, pre Elena cos she ruined his bad self.

This is a phenomenonal spin off of The Vampire Diaries with another insight of the supernatural world. The Originals is supported with an amazing cast and strong storylines that will make you cry, happy, excited and scared.
