I wasn't expecting much with all of the beautiful actors casted but it's actually a cool show. In another matter, nothing to do with the quality of the show. I purchased season 8 from Google play and they posted only 3 episodes so far. I thought Google advertised "Watch last night's episode". Google, you're awesome... But lift up your game with the episodes.

I would like to state though people often complain Google Play is too slow in loading new episodes. Google Play is on Season 8, episode 3 and Netflix have literally just only loaded Season 7 yesterday. So I've found Google Play ahead of other apps out there. But we get impatient and don't like being kept hanging so please keep uploading more episodes.

As I was watching "The Vampire Diaries" I opened my mind and put myself in Damon Salvatore's mind to make myself connect with the show and its characters that much more. Every bit of pain he had felt, I had felt all the same. I did the same with "The Originals," rather with both Klaus Mikaelson and Elijah Mikaelson. The streak continued with "Legacies" only with Hope Mikaelson. Power to the mind, believe, see and experience the difference. :) I hope everyone has a nice long and happy life! ♥️
