I've liked all the eps up to the last two, though it seems like the thing I disliked most about 3x07 (the creepiness of Lexi's torture "method") was intentional and not just WTF writing. Still, I was sort of horribly disappointed by the last ep (I'm not a historian, but I know enough about European history to know they're doing it WRONGWRONGWRONG. *sigh*). I've pretty much given up hope that they'll manage to make the originals plot into anything awesome, and now I'm worried they'll ruin Elijah (even more). I'm really bummed about Stefan - what made his plot more interesting to me was always that the ripper was a part of him and something he had to conquer within himself in contrast with the Angel/Angelus plot, where it wasn't something that Angel had to struggle with internally. By taking away his free will, they just turned him into another Angelus.

Oh, well. At least everyone is pretty?
