I didn’t press play yet and I’m already sad 😭😭 LEXI 😩

Kate

Lexiiiiiii

SpikesEcho

The Mystic Grill is MOST DEFINITELY "Applebees" vibe and doesn't hold a candle to The Bronze 😂😂

RavenLord

Justice for Lexi! Oh, Damon...on one hand, diabolical, and on other hand, genius.

RavenLord

This comment gave me such a wide grin. I've never seen an Applebees, but that is pretty much how I picture it. And 100% agree about The Bronze.

SpikesEcho

I'm not a Lexi fan, so this one doesn't hit me in the feels 😬 sorry not sorry

kosia

She is in John Tucker must die with Ashanti and the girl from the hitcher remake (Sophia Bush)

SpikesEcho

Boys better recognize Kendra the Vampire Slayer's appearance this episode!

sbscarlett

Well...it was definitely a birthday Stefan will never forget 💀

gloomygraveyardgirl

Lexi is an icon. But i think if she had lived the show would only have gotten 1 season, cause she would solve all the problems asap haha. I feel really sorry for Caroline, shes an insecure teenager and the way Damon treats her makes me want to rip my hair out. Hes such an asshole. But i will say that the idea of Bonnie looking fat because of a pendant is really funny (i really hate all the fatphobia in these kinds of shows but that comment gets a pass from me cause its so funny/absurd) R.I.P to Lexi, the baddest bitch in town.

_SimplyTenni💞

It was the Salvatore tomb lol not Salvation 😂

Julie D

Since you asked, the audience loves Lexi! She's definitely a fave among the minor characters. I honestly think that if the writers had known how amazing Arielle would be in the role, they wouldn't have killed her off so fast. Many thanks for this week's reactions! It's the first time I've rewatched these early eps in a really long time, so it's fun to take this journey with you. Really looking forward to your reactions for the rest of the series!

RavenLord

Now that we've had a few scenes with Caroline and you've gotten a feel for her personality, I can reveal a little trivia. Don't worry, no spoilers! She is partially inspired by Caroline Stoddard of the gothic supernatural soap opera Dark Shadows. The original series, not that *travesty* of a Tim Burton/Johnny Depp movie that pooped all over the lore. 😉 Producer Kevin Williamson is a fan of Dark Shadows and has admitted that there is a lot of DS influence in The Vampire Diaries! Sadly, I don't know how well the 1960s series would play to a 21st-century audience, being in black & white for a couple seasons and having more atmosphere than overt supernatural in its first season, which has been referred to on streaming platforms and DVD collections as "The Beginning." The vampire doesn't even show up in the first 200 episodes. And that's the other issue against reacting to it; it's a daily soap opera, and even though the episodes themselves are only about 20 minutes long, there are hundreds of them. So as much as I would love to have reactions to them, I don't think it could ever realistically happen, or that it would be well received. 😌 I just wanted to share that DS/TVD connection.

Sanya Arif

theres a silly little bugger in the comments saying they are not a fan sheesh

Sanya Arif

unfortunately, Ian doesnt hold a candle to James in acting. so yes you do like bad boys but you also like terrible actors :P

Sanya Arif

So Damon wants to get the Council off their trails when it's him that left the trail. Idgaf about his nuance or whatever, I just hate him in this season

Snctionedl0ve

Lexi is the best friend we all didn’t know we needed

SpikesEcho

That silly little bugger is me, and as a Defan fan, I have good reasons 😉 plus personal reasons. Her and Caroline are just not it for me ❌

BlueJean452

Not sure if you noticed because it was a quick flash but the actress who plays Emily is Bianca Lawson who also plays Kendra on Buffy.

RJC-29

RIP Lexi, she was a real one. That actress was also Lindsey in Gilmore Girls :P

Astoria

Damon knew where the pendant was because he had hidden it there. He had told Caroline that when he took it. I think I can safely say that everyone had that reaction to Lexi, and afterwards everyone said or thought, "I really liked Lexi! I’d hoped she’d stay in town for a while." Oh, btw, I don't know if you've seen the Gilmore Girls, but the actress who played Lexi was in the later seasons.

KatieBee

Lexiiiiii 😭 I really loved her a lot. This is one of Damon's indiscretions that I can never forgive. There had to be another way to cover tracks, he's just choosing the option that also hurts Stephan because of wanting to torture him for all eternity. Something light and amusing though, at 2:27 that is the longest freaking candle I've ever seen in my life. It's so comical.

Ariana Meyer

It’s been over a decade and I still will never forgive Julie plec for killing off Lexi 😭😩

Trinity Bernhardt

This doesn't really make sense, because it indicates James is actually a terrible actor, because she was comparing them. Besides, why crap on someone's taste? Especially on a show where most of us are here because we like TVD, and probably like the actors. Can we all just be nice?

Trinity Bernhardt

I admit I did find Caroline pretty shallow at first. I didn't she was a bad person, just shallow. Then I felt bad for her. This was the first moment I really wondered if there was more to her. It is the Salvatore mausoleum. My heart breaks for Lexi! She was a queen. I admit I was way madder over her than Vicki, even though I was sad over Vicki. This was the first moment I thought I might hate Damon. Before he had been funny enough to keep my favor, but Lexi was love at first sight.

Miguel

Yes Lexi is very loved in the TVD fandom 💔💔

Cheryl Abbott

I know I've said it before but I love Matt 🤗

JasmynTaylah

25:58 the Brenda impression HAHA

Joshua Shields

You would know Lexi's actor from 9-1-1 , a show u have mentioned watching

Robke

You guys are the first reactors I've seen who knew what was gonna happen to Lexi, you clocked Damons plan for her right away😄 I think her death would've felt even more devastating if you thought she might be a long term addition to the show. I never forgave Damon for this😆 there could've been so many other ways to throw the council off his scent. If he insisted on framing another vampire, he could've just turned somebody random. But to kill Stefans oldest and closest friend...beyond cruel

Kristine

Me too! ☺️

SapientButterfly

Love Lexi she's such a great character and would have loved her to be around for longer. Love her actor too, she's great in Midnight Texas.

orna

I think that poor bartender getting arrested at the end was innocent. When he said he needed to check ID he wasn't specific so when Lexi compelled him saying he doesn't need to he stopped checking them for everyone

Jakari24

😂😂😂 Great reaction, favs! • Lexi was DEFINITELY an instant fan favorite; it’s damn near impossible to hate her lol. • 😂😂 Sergio, I love your (very valid) complex feelings towards Damon 😂 Buckle up, This show is 8 seasons long; I can’t WAIT for y’all to see even more Damons lol.

N

He killed his brother’s best friend on his birthday real diabotical plan

Amanda P

one of my fave eps of season 1! i love lexi and stefans dynamic, every best friend duo needs the sunshine bubbly one to the grumpy brooding one lol its a very common trope and i eat it up!

Siren

this was so mean to say lol

Ciara A.G.

110% Unrelated. Evil Dead Burn trailer. Movie out in <___< July I think. Early July.

BatmanFanGirl

"Happy birthday, leave forever." LMAO

First Question

Lexi is one of my all time favorite characters. What a well written and well performed gem of a character. She just came in like a hurricane.

First Question

I just love Jasmine Guy too, though she was DEFINITELY young when she was cast in her 40’s to play a grandmother to a high schooler. She’s such a talented actor, and just seems so perfect for the role of Grams.

Jacob Young

Sergio, Did she use her vampire diaries or did her vampire diaries use her?

Jbug

lexi was immediately my favourite character. her dying was heartbreaking 💔 😢

Evan Bailey

If you guys are living for grams (as you should be) check out dead like me! Right up you/our ally!

Jess

Hate Damon for this xD

Jess

Also, I named my dog Lexi haha

Kimberly S. (Rawr)

LEXI! She’s one of my favorite characters! She’s so fun. Adore her & Stefan’s friendship. Great seeing her putting Damon in his place. 162 years old is wild. Happy Birthday Stefan Here’s some heartbreak 😭 Damon visiting Sheriff Forbes getting more information about the council is smart. The pillow scene with Bonnie was so cool. Not Damon compelling Caroline again. Leave her be. Caroline trying to get the necklace back from Bonnie saying it made her look fat had me cracking up cuz it was so random 😂 Hate how Damon talks to Caroline. Caroline’s drunken talk with Matt was so sad. Love that he’s genuinely a good guy helping her home. Damon staking Lexi was so heartbreaking 💔 Something I’ll never forgive Damon for 😭 I get the idea behind it but not betraying a longtime friend. Stefan going after Damon in that fight tho! Bonnie’s dream & her sleepwalking to the tomb was crazy. This one was a rough episode. Absolutely adored Arielle Kebbel in this role as Lexi. Loved her in John Tucker Must Die. Your reaction & breakdown was fantastic. Appreciate y’all & can’t wait for more of this show 🖤

Miss Maya

Justice for Lexi!!!!! :(((((((

Sanya Arif

well, we cant account for tastes ;)

M Dag

Lexi is truly that girl… that girl you can see in your own life who truly gets you

Courtney Kirk

Yes it says Salvatore. It is the Salvatore family crypt.

Zombies_Are_Real

When Vicki died last episode it reminded me that the character of Lexi existed. Then she popped up in this episode! Also forgot Jasmine Guy was in this. You guys should check out Dead Like Me at some point!

Kam

Lexi is probably one of very few characters who is a fan favorite from when you first meet them and pretty much everyone is gutted when she dies straight away

Shannon Turner

yeah I hate that this happened to Lexi, she was amazing, but unfortunately Damon is a charming genius. and it might just be my Damon-coloured glasses, but I actually think Damon doesn't like doing it either. I do believe the only way Stefan got Damon at the end was because Damon felt remorse and his guard was down, I think he basically let Stefan get him but the stake surprised him

SpikesEcho

Sanya - Seeing your comments elsewhere, why am I not surprised the Stefan glazer, Lexi/Caroline fan is showing themselves to be a bad person 😂 Poor Stefan, he deserves better than the fans he attracts

Melanie Vaudrin

Lexi is iconic. Far as I recall, a fan fav despite showing up so very little. And she's also pivotal for setting tVD world in stone. Up until this many fans, not just you guys, kept comparing to Buffyverse (and no worries I'm writing this as though I haven't seen past episode 8) as there is a hella lot of similarities. But this episode kinda highlights that oh, Stefan isn't the odd one out like Angel was. Sure he avoids human blood, but as far as fitting into society, behaving, blending in...Lexi was very much the same way. Damon is the odd one out, and if other vampires are like Lexi than they aren't just inherently evil or driven by hunger. It's a great episode to highlight this is a totally different world for vampires versus what everyone has up until now been comparing it too.

xMoonKittyy

I know a lot of people have given you places Lexis actress played a role in. Another, I haven't seen mentioned yet is Aquamarine. That Sara Paxton, Emma Roberts and Jojo mermaid movie.

Jungle Julia

Just had a Halloween party. Now, it's Stefan's bay, but Caroline DEFINITELY said he was a Gemini in the pilot. 😅

courtney 🧚🏽‍♀️

def might be biased lol he killed his brothers best friend to make the town think they’d killed the vampire when he was the one going around killing people. they were only suspicious bc of him and he killed an innocent person who wasn’t involved.

Shannon Turner

Yes, hun. I watched the episode. Lexi isn't innocent either, she's been killing people for 300+ years. No vampire in this show (to this point) is innocent

courtney 🧚🏽‍♀️

damon is so abusive and manipulative. he has no reason to verbally abuse caroline like that and treat her like shit. she's done nothing to him to deserve that treatment. him and stefan might have their issues but to kill his best friend on his birthday is fucked up, end of story. he could've turned someone else and framed them but no he did it in a way that would hurt stefan the most and that was completely intentional. also if i was a vampire i'd def drink blood bags. i might drink from a partner but idk the blood bag seems to be the safest option.

Kammy

And a teen in pretty much every show ever lol

Kammy

It’s been said that co-creator Kevin Williamson was a big Swiftie and kept Taylor in mind when writing for Lexi. He actually wanted her on the show but it never worked out.

Nyantri

I love Lexi sooo much ❤️😭

Mariela Oquendo Rodríguez

Didn’t really cared for Lexi she was there just one episode to care about her like everyone else does xD She was just collateral damage

Danymeriqui

The way I went "ohhhh.. about that" when you guys said you hope nothing happens to her. We all love her so much, she is FUN. I loved your reaction and commentary. ♡

SciFiChikie Scar

in Defense of Damon: to quote Lexi "I don't know ok. If some freak shot at me with wooden bullets I'd bail in under 60." Yet instead of bailing, and living for another day, she choose to advance towards the freak with the wooden bullets. AKA Sheriff Forbes.
