This weeks episode of The Vampire Diaries served as the backdoor pilot for the new show starring our favorite Hybrid Niklaus Mikaelson, or as I like to call him the button nosed cutie with the velvety voice!
The episode introduced us to the setting where the show will take place, New Orleans, and I gotta say it looked great. The atmosphere that surrounds the place is perfect for our Original family members, it suits their style and hey it's one of Klaus's favorite places on earth so we love it as well!
Many new characters were introduced a couple of witches, some bar tender lady with a black belt in karate, and Marcel, Klaus's prodigy and the King of New Orleans (for now). And oh yeah Hayley was there as well , they brought her in thinking she has any effect on Klaus and I quote "If you think some liquor fueled one night stand means a thing to me" they were wrong (LOL hayley's face), but ALAS, she did have something important to bring to the table, she was pregnant (i'm pretty sure this baby was conceived on a table as well).
A KLAUS BABY YA'LL, he's gonna be a daddy, cuteness overload!!! It did take some serious convincing from the lovely and ever so handsome Elijah to get him to agree to keep this child, and the mother...since they need her to carry it, damn it, but he's gonna do it and while we wait for this baby to arrive he is going to attempt to dethrone Marcel and take over as the proper reigning king of New Orleans, they did build the city after all, so its only fair.
Memorable moments include the interactions between Klaus and Marcel, the dude playing Marcel is brilliant he's a great actor and he brings such an amazing charisma to the character which makes him appealing to the viewers and we can't wait to see what else he has to offer.
ANY SCENE WITH ELIJAH was outstanding, Daniel Gillies and Joseph Morgan have both become so accustomed to playing these characters that they just can't go wrong with it, no matter what they say. It's gonna be interesting to see them work together more when the series officially begins.
And last but not least, Klaus, who just loves toying with out hearts, made a very interesting and might I add adorable phone call to our favorite blonde vampire back in mystic falls , Caroline, telling her how he'd love to be able to show her his favorite place in the world. Seriously, with all the drama that has happened to him in one day, he's still thinking about Caroline and how he just wants to be with her and make her happy!! Go to him you fooooool!! Then again, we've been waiting so long for something to happen, I guess we're gonna have to wait some more, but it will happen, it just has to! Klaus isn't the kind of person to give up easily, we know that for sure!
