The last Vampire Diaries of the decade also (ironically) capped off ten episodes of death, witchcraft and drama—MAJOR drama.
Viewers have gone on quite a journey since first setting foot in Mystic Falls and that can be attributed to one thing—consistently solid writing. Show runners Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson aren't content with simply spinning their wheels.
This is the story of Mystic Falls and its inhabitants— living and undead. There's a lot of moving pieces to this story and boy are they moving. I noted in my very first recap for the series just how many characters are being juggled in this show and I can't believe how far we've come with them in only ten chapters.
So, what happened into night's chapter, "The Turning Point?"

First there were vamps, then witches... Now, the ghosts — well, it's actually just one ghost, for now —have come to town. Man, Mystic Falls just can't catch a break.
Proving yet again that the word "stall" doesn't exist in the Vampire Diaries' writers' room, "History Repeating" brought Bonnie's first significant adventure as a witch to a close while also revealing the reason for the timing of Damon's return to Mystic Falls. Hint: It's not for the high-school football.

The Vampire Diaries - Matt Davis
Matthew Davis arrived on the Atlanta set of The Vampire Diaries just two days after getting the gig, leaving him no time to read the books; so playing Alaric Saltzman, an enigmatic new teacher, wasn't that tough. Right off the bat, Alaric takes a shine to both Jeremy and his aunt, but it will be a while before his true passion is revealed. (Hint: Alaric has something in common with Buffy.) Davis tells TVGuide.com what Alaric is researching in Mystic Falls, when he'll interact with Stefan and Damon and why he hopes never to be called to the special-effects office.

You raised the question last week, so answer it. Will there be a Visitor-human birth on V? — Jim
MICKEY: We already know that Morris Chestnut's Ryan Nichols has a human lovah, but I'm hearing that a different human-V coupling will produce a bouncing baby reptile.

Halloween may be over but the witches and vamps of Mystic Falls didn't get the message. If the All Hallows' Eve-themed "Haunted" tied the bow on a lot of dangling ribbons, then "162 Candles" started wrapping a whole new present. Taking full advantage of their chance to stop and a take a breath, the writers introduced us to an old — make that really old — friend of the Salvatore brothers while giving screen time to characters we haven't seen much of lately.
So, what happened?

8/7c CW
Vicki's dead? Didn't see that one coming. And neither did she when Stefan staked her last week. More surprises are in store tonight when Stefan celebrates his 162nd birthday and one of his oldest friends, Lexi (Arielle Kebbel), arrives unexpectedly to show him a good time. Of course, she's also undead and is 350 years old herself. But she's still smoking hot and is passionate about being with Stefan. And she's not going to let any mere mortal, like Elena, stand in her way.
Read on for previews of FlashForward, The Office, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Real Housewives of Orange County.

Were you happily bewildered by Lost's time-tripping fifth season? Did comedies such as How I Met Your Mother and The Office make you laugh harder than ever?
